400 thousand DNA automatically send to China;
Infamous Xinjiang Facial recognition program may come true.
(14 Jul) Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam announced to prioritize Wuhan pneumonia test for 400 thousand high-risk workers in elderly residential care homes, catering industry, property management and taxi drivers. Two companies from Shenzhen, China will conduct these tests.
Current Wuhan pneumonia test uses saliva samples by swabbing saliva from the throat. Saliva can be used for virus testing, but also provide DNA information. Worst case scenario, 400 thousand Hongkongers’ DNA data may automatically send to China. After the implement of National Security Law (NSL), the Hong Kong government and the Chinese Community Party (CCP) extracted DNA of arrestees who were not accused of NSL. Today, it was obvious to appoint Chinese testing companies conducting Wuhan pneumonia test for Hongkongers. The intention is clearly to develop “Hongkongers’ DNA database” and enhance the surveillance in Hong Kong.
Last year, “New York Times” disclosed CCP collected large amount of blood samples from Uyghurs in East Turkestan (Xinjiang) and extracted their DNA. CCP cover it's intention with an excuse as regular body check, but the truth is to extract Uyghurs DNA for its facial recognition program in reality. This information imported to the CCP surveillance system and cooperated with facial recognition technology. It strengthens surveillance of dissenters and Uyghur.
Today, the Hong Kong government sends Hongkongers DNA to China on the ground of public health. It is an open secret. In the past, Hongkongers always said “Xinjiang today. Hong Kong tomorrow” and urged Hongkongers came out to fight for freedom. But, sorry, “Hong Kong today has become Xinjiang”.

Three arrested for money laundering after raising $1.8 million in support of the Hong Kong protests in the name of HKTVmall staff
(16 Jul) Three HKTVmall former and current employees were arrested for allegedly raising $1.8 million online since last year, claiming that the funds were used to buy supplies to support the protests. The incident involves a telegram channel named “HKTVmall employee voluntary support scheme”.
Officers from the Hong Kong Narcotics Bureau and Financial Investigation discovered unusual cash transactions involving around $1.1 million in a man’s bank account last year. The 26-year-old man, Lau, was arrested in December last year on suspicion of "money laundering". Investigations revealed that the man was suspected of being involved in an online fundraising campaign, claiming that the money would be used to buy supplies for supporting illegal assemblies.
Police continued to trace the man’s source of funds and found that there were also unusual and large cash transactions involving a total of $1.8 million in the accounts of another man and woman, of which $500,000 was later deposited into Lau’s account. Police arrested a 23-year-old man, Cheung, and a 25-year-old woman, Tam, in Hung Hom and Sheung Shui yesterday (15 Jul) on suspicion of money laundering.
It is understood that the arrestees are current and former employees of HKTVmall. All of them have been released on bail pending investigation, and will have to report to the police in early August and mid-September. The Telegram channel in question, which stopped operating late last year, issued a message in January condemning a former administrator for using the channel's name to raise funds.
