People under COVID quarantine will have to wear electronic bracelets in order to prevent them from leaving home, Honk Kong's new health minister announces.

Just like house arrest.
Secretary for Health Lo Chung-mau said “If we give confirmed patients freedom and allow them to roam around, it will limit the freedom of us who test negative.”
Having Covid is a crime in Hong Kong.

The Communist govt is considering adding code features in the existing #LeaveHomeSafe App, straight up #CCP style #HealthCode with info of ppl’s real names, ID card numbers, birth dates and phone numbers.
The city becomes a huge prison now.

#SurveillanceState

The freedom fighters in Hong Kong spotted the surveillance lamp posts and took one of them down at #KowloonBay back in 2019 pro-democracy protests.

Now that the pro-#CCP lawmakers urge to install at least 400 more of these so called “smart lamp posts”.

These so called smart lamp posts not only equipped with lights, but also cameras, which possibly facial recognition-enabled, and Bluetooth beacons.
They’re turning the city into a surveillance state like #Xinjian.

#HongKong

74 yr-old #Milan -born missionary Father Franco Mella launched a 3-day hunger strike since yesterday under the heat outside a Hong Kong prison, urging the Communist government to release of political prisoners held under the draconian national security law.

Father Mella is known for his advocacy work supporting marginalised groups in the city, including prisoners, asylum seekers and the homeless. And this is not the first time he stages hunger strike.

He might be a Leftist but I admire his courage, reminds me another priest, a pro-#CCP one, Peter Douglas Koon, he’s being loyal to the Communist Party, a so-called cleric who worship Xi Jinping.

#721YuenLongAttack

It’s been 3 years since July 21 2019.
I can never forget the tragedy which took place in #YuenLong that night.
Justice never arrived.
It is the darkest chapter of the pro-democracy movement.

Gang members who served #CCP started the attack outside the train station, beating people bypassed literally.
And then they got inside the train station.

There were plenty of witnesses and victims, over 40 were injured, Hong Kong Police and the Justice Department refused to summon them to testify on the trials or investigate the incident.

The then chief executive Carrie Lam refused to set up independent investigation panel, the police watchdog #IPCC released a so-called fact-finding report on the incidents, after the international expert panel hired to help with this study stepped down.

Turns out these thugs walks free, some fled to the U.K., some might still living in the city.
And guess what, the Police Chief back then, Stephen Lo, his entire family is living right here in the US.

#HongKong

I’m surprised how Washington Post, mainstream media reported about the Southeast Asia job scams in #HongKong.

Say the undersecretary of Security Bureau, Michael Cheuk is helping the victims.
In fact the victims numbers have already rose to 37, only 11 of them made it out and back to the city.

I saw this shocking video on Twitter. Now that there are 23 victims who’s from Hong Kong are now remain imprisoned in Myanmar and Cambodia. Victims were given flight tickets and most had their passports taken, they got imprisoned in scam centers and beaten for a month before their family paid an unspecified ransom, or they will be forced to defraud others.

I’m surprised that not much US netizens talk about it on social media platforms.

#831PrinceEdwardTerroristAttack

It’s been 3 years, this broadcast sound left a hole in the hearts of #HongKongers.

2019-8-31
It all started from a couple of pro-#CCP guys waving hammer, tried to pick up a fight with passengers who they thought just participated a pro-democracy protest, and they called the cops.

Cops stormed in Prince Edward MTR station, platform 4 and started indiscriminately attacked passengers. One of the victim Siu chun was arrested once, he was wounded and blacked out for over a minute.

The press were barred outside the station, even the paramedics from fire department couldn’t get in the station.

First aid volunteers read the breaking news on livestreams rushes to the scene also barred from getting in, they begged the cops to let them give the wounded medical assistance.

It’s been 3 years, no cop is under investigation or punished over the incident.
As a Hong Konger, I’ll never forget.

#HongKong

Today is #CCP’s National Day holiday.
It’s also a tragic day that true #HongKongers will never forget.

2019 Oct 1st, a teenager protester was shot by the police, point-blank double tap. The young protester Tsang Chi-kin appeared in court on July after hiding out for nearly two years and moving between safehouses.
His case was adjourned to November.

What about the cop who shot him?
No independent investigation, no suspension on duty, no nothing.

Since then, Oct 1st became a wound that can never be healed to HKers, we don’t celebrate dictatorship CCP’s National Day.

And there’s another reason which makes Oct 1st a tragic day for HKers.
The 2012 Lamma Island ferry collision, this year marks 10-yr anniversary of the collision, the tragedy killed 39 people, Hong Kong Coroner’s Court will not investigate the crash, families of victims in disaster are still waiting for the justice.

#HongKong

There’s an update to #HongKong's so called Covid-19 app #LeaveHomeSafe , which the app will automatic checking the health codes for the vaccine passes of accompanied persons.

So the app it’s not just checking the app user but user’s accompanies, apparently it violated the privacy ordinance in HK.

Worst is yet to come, the draconian app contains hidden feature, facial recognition.
This is not normal, even the West is doing the same thing in the name of national security, this is a terrible surveillance and control tactics that #CCP been using.

#SiegeOfTheCUHK
#20191112

Three years ago tonight, siege of the Chinese University of Hong Kong #CUHK , I can never forget about it.

No I wasn’t there, but my friend, like a little brother to me, was at the scene since Nov 11 2019.
In order to revenge college students participate the pro-democracy protests in the city, Hong Kong police clashed into the campus WITHOUT warrant and authorisation, over 2,000 tear gas canisters deployed, angry civilians rushed to the campus trying to help the youngsters.

An unarmed student journalist from Hong Kong Baptist University was shot in the eyes while reporting the incident;
CUHK’s Vice-Chancellor, Tuan was there to negotiate with the police, and cop fired tear gas right towards him, too.

I can’t help wonder if these brave students are safe and sound today.
How are you, kiddos?
