In memory of Mr. Shiu Ka-Chun (1569-2025), a well-respected former Hong Kong legislator, social worker, former political prisoner, and founder of the prisoners' rights support group Wall-fare 石牆花, who passed away today (10 Jan, Hong Kong time) of gastric cancer. RIP.

Trump is going to pause this ban and look like a hero for doing it. No one in Congress is going to want to own it and TikTok will live on in the US. Not going anywhere.

When it comes to speeches, there are two Donald Trumps: 1️⃣ Teleprompter Trump, who reads a prepared speech and tends to be staid, sleepy, and insincere. 2️⃣Rally Trump, who riffs in front of a cheering crowd and is wild, aggressive, and more true to the person Trump really is.

Centre for Refugees in Hong Kong says families waiting in the city for 10+ years to be re-settled in the US have been told they now cannot go because of Trump immigration policy.

Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek's answers about the Hong Kong protests in 2019, Taiwan's status and other topics echo Beijing's party line, according to test questions posed by HKFP. hongkongfp.com/2025/01/28/let… Unsure why many top outlets aren't highlighting the censorship issue.

After its head and staff were taken away by police for questioning, and office raided, HKPORI is effectively shutting down itself gradually

Somehow HKU's boilerplate generic response that doesn't even mention Webb's proposal or acknowledge what the actual question was about doesn't fill me with confidence about their alleged commitment to academic freedom and freedom of speech.
