Hong Kong is now under a form of de facto curfew, imposed by systemwide MTR closures on the pretext of repairing stations (9 PM yesterday, 6 PM today). Today is a public holiday; tomorrow will be the first workday under the new arrangement.https://twitter.com/rthk_enews/status/1180986742670651392 …

There are certain damaged stations, but any time you see the government shut down the transport hub at Central and Admiralty (let alone stations on the Chinese border) you can be sure that the intent is punishment and social control. Note that the airport train is somehow exempt

Hong Kong's MTR curfew continues tonight with all service to be suspended at 8 PM. This is the more bizarre because people have been using the system for two days now and can see with their own eyes that stations are not damaged enough to warrant closing. Many are intact.
