    “The Wuhan coronavirus spreading from China is now likely to become a pandemic that circles the globe, according to many of the world’s leading infectious disease experts.” Highly infectious, similar to a flu, but we won’t khow deadly it is for a while.

    “In compliance with the laws of Hong Kong” is the key phrase While striking is a right, the dispute must be related to the terms of one’s employment for it to be deemed a strike So the question would be whether or not the demand to close the border relates to one’s employment

    Meeting of China’s top leaders on the coronavirus outbreak calls it a major test of China’s governance system. It then calls for more internet/media controls, even after all the recent findings and anger about authorities blocking early online warnings.

  5. HKers, just been told that many apartments service companies don’t bother doing the recycling, even if management says they do. They simply throw all the recycled from each floor into the main bin. Is that true?

  6. This is an excellent and nuanced thread on the vs Taiwan storm that I really hope more people at both in ICAO and in Taiwan will read. Sums up much of what I thought but didn’t articulate as clearly.

    Thoughtful thread on the / Taiwan kerfuffle. Very much second this point - the individual in question was borderline doxxed based on assumptions (not evidence) regarding her job responsibilities.

    The new coronavirus has led to worries in Hong Kong about its border with mainland China. “The city is on an unprecedented level of lockdown," said David Webb, an independent investor. "At the same time, we’re allowing potential cases to walk across."

    Dom blames “the shocking influence of lawyers on policy” for the current laws on the release of prisoners. Once more, slowly: Lawyers do not make laws. Dom’s boss and his mates make the laws. That has been their job for the last decade. The blame lies with them.

    Since 2012 we've seen a war on free speech, the destruction of a nascent civil society, the opening of concentration camps, a petulant attempt to crush Hong Kong, public confessions on TV like it's 1966, and now yet another disaster caused by a cover-up. I'm fucking tired.

  15. Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam just announced the closure of all but town land border crossings with mainland China. Now just Macau-Zhuhai birdge, the Shenzhen Bay bridge and the international airport open for mainlanders to enter Hong Kong.

  16. As has correctly pointed out, half the HK residents returning are coming via the airport, so they are from all over the world. The mainland is at least 56,000 and some of those airport arrivals will also be mainland.

    There is much wrong with the current approach to policing. The Police are deploying anti-riot and undercover officers to local community policing situations. The danger is that anti-riot policing now becomes normal policing.
