I cannot breathe well to play flute and piccolo again after I suffered from serious pneumonia and was hospitalised last year. It’s too challenging. So, I now turn to play #lyreharp🪉. This Irish-style lyre harp’s sound is really mellow. I like the colour. Mint! youtube.com/shorts/udMtd...

….They received threatening emails during the event. We should not tolerate any transnational repression.

Thanks a lot for the speakers and participants for sharing their experiences and views on China’s transnational repression. It’s so sad that it’s so rampant everywhere. It’s a bit shocking that participants of a conference in Bosnia were also targeted….

...the East Asia Lead of the New Zealand-based @rightstracker.bsky.social while he interviewed Jack Ma Yun and continues to work for a pro-Beijing major English media in HK. What a life😅.

And my former classmate at the Department of English at the University of Hong Kong was a cadet reporter one year before I joined the Post, and he's now the Editor-in-Chief. It's funny to see all these connections.

I don't want to keep ridiculing my former employer @scmpnews.bsky.social. After all, I have to admit that I wasn't a great journalist and only spent about 3.5 years in my first career as a journalist at SCMP and I changed to work for @ucanews.bsky.social and later with various NGOs.

more than that. i worked at there in 2000-2003. It’s already corrupted when I joined. just unprofessional and shameless.

Trump and Republicans are terrified of policies that curb their own wealth and power, and the wealth and power of the oligarchs that bankroll them. That's why they're amping up the fearmongering about "socialism."

I somehow feel sick to see this. SCMP now reports like that? A dictator’s wife showing “elegance”? Disgusting. I kinda feel ashamed to be a former SCMP journalist.

I really enjoy playing my small part of the human rights movement. Now, being a board member of @asianlawyersn.bsky.social and East Asia lead of @rightstracker.bsky.social as well as continuing my PhD studies, was with Lyon3 and soon to be with @univrennes2.bsky.social.

It's great to end the day of @rightscon.org hearing the speech by Prof. Ben Saul, the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and Counter Terrorism and met with other legal and human rights experts. A very fruitful day, although didn't have time to work on my thesis today.

Urgent concern for the conviction and sentencing of lawyer Chow Hang-tung L4L expresses grave concern over the sentencing of #humanrights barrister Chow Hang-tung to 7 years and 3 months on charges of incitement to subversion under #HongKongSAR’s national security laws.

Periodic reminder that the most recent time that actual democratic elections were held in Hong Kong (back in November 2019), the result was a "yellow (pro-democracy) tsunami". Re the map below: if the Islands District had fully consisted of elected officials, it would have been yellow too.

‘China’s State Council issued a new regulation on exit & entry administration…It is a nineteen‑article text that expands the authority of immigration & visa officers & introduces new layers of control over Chinese citizens who want to leave the country. The regulation is public & binding’.

China’s New Exit Rules Reveal a State That Fears Its Own Citizens

A system where exit is a privilege that can be withdrawn burdens ordinary travelers, while criminals (unfortunately) and dissidents (happily) will continue to buy their way out.

After months of health issues and recovery, looking forward to resuming my PhD studies in another university soon. Just want to finish it.

還記得當年在香港見過一位叫池英花的垃圾北京律師，自以為是，非常氣焰，問我甚麼是不是很難受，還對我說甚麼與政府作對不會有好結果，垃圾至極，我是否會有好結果，沒所謂，但我看清某些中共律師有多垃圾。我才會理睬這些垃圾，我今天繼續罵中共，我結果很不好嗎?我餘生將作為一個普通人臭罵垃圾中共。

Fourteen Russian spy satellites flew over a US military base in Saudi Arabia days before an Iranian strike, CNN reports. US officials said the collected intelligence may have been shared with Iran, helping enable the high-precision attack which wounded 12 US service members.
