The water canon truck accurately spotted me, by myself and in full press gear, holding a phone behind a lamp post 🙄
00:00- Tonight, trying to get back from Mongkok to Wanchai, we were turned down by 3 taxi drivers. Then a SUV drove up and the young couple gave us a ride. Wouldn’t even let us help pay West Tunnel toll. They were out just to get people home. Moments like this make me believe in HK.
- It’s official: Ecuador suspends visa free entry for Chinese nationals, citing “worrying increase in migratory flows from China.” #walktheline
- 去年11月底到今年1月初，我与同事用了7周时间在厄瓜多尔、哥伦比亚、巴拿马、墨西哥和美国加州拍摄一部关于走线的纪录片。 这一路上我们遇到一帮热情外向的中国走线客，与他们一起经历了艰辛、危险、希望与绝望。 Walk the Line, 全部三集已于@YouTube上线，内含中文字幕。
- Steve Bannon, speaking in HK at Chinese-owned broker event, delivers not so anti-China speech. Tweet storm coming.
- I am often asked how China is different today. I always knew the answer: it's confidence. But even I didn't expect the line to be so clear. The crater happened not at the onset of the pandemic, but in April 2022, when Shanghai was supposed to emerge from the lockdowns but didn't.
- I have a question: if Cheung has no idea what the law will say, how does he know 99.9% of people won't be affected?In an exclusive CNN interview, Hong Kong’s 2nd highest ranking official Matthew Cheung tries to reassure investors & foreign governments that a new national security law drafted by Beijing would only target suspected “terrorists and separatists” in the former British colony
00:00 - Whoever wrote this headline was being far too charitable. China didn’t sacrifice a province to save the world. It did it to escape blame, to win praise, to look “extraordinary.” But it backfired terribly. The lockdown of Wuhan triggered a global panic...This post is unavailable.
- At some point someone’s gonna figure out that was me... so here’s what happened: the raptors came onto the bridge chasing protestors. One pointed his baton at me asking me to leave. I said I was separated from my crew and had too much equipment. He left me alone.Earlier tonight in Yuen Long - an STS “Raptor” police pointing his baton at a reporter
- A British filmmaker has made a doc to tell "the truth abt HK." In the 1st ep, he interviews Regina Ip, Yonden Lhatoo and Nury Vittachi, who invariably claim the extradition bill meant well, was misrepresented, and those opposing it never read it. Who knew?
- Scene outside #PolyU right now. Fresh off their landslide election victory, pan-dems have come up to the campus, demanding that police release the remaining protestors still inside.
00:00 - You read that right. The law applies to anyone anywhere in the world.Replying to @antdThe law applies to any acts undertaken in HK, any acts undertaken by a HK permanent resident outside HK, & interestingly also is said to have extraterritorial power, applying to any non-HK permanent resident outside HK but carrying out one of the defined crimes directed at HK.
