But wait, there's more: Hide contents https://news.rthk.hk/rthk/en/component/k2/1560805-20201119.htm Yup, pretty sure this poor judge will get canned. Maybe even slapped with a trumped up "threat to national security" charge by the ccp. Here's hoping he manages to complete his rulings on a few more proceedings before he gets canned. Canned? I'm thinking based on how that vile turd Jinping likes to do things, that this judge will disappear and never be seen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll "reappear" with a "heart-felt apology" on the error of his ways and how he hurt the feelings of the Chinese/HK people, etc. China should just use 1 standard video and just deepfake a person's face on it as they need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents https://news.rthk.hk/rthk/en/component/k2/1580434-20210313.htm BTW, looks like it won't be long before I won't be quoting RTHK articles any more. The new lackey installed as their Chief has decided to wade in on editorial independence of programming (he's been cutting episodes of material that were ready to go but were deemed "indecent" or because he apparently didn't like the narrative), so it's only a matter of time before he starts shifting the spin on the RTHK news websites in favour of the government and the ccp. For a public broadcaster, they were fair in their provision of news and fearless in their willingness to expose truth to power. Unfortunately, as a government-funded institution and under attack by pro-establishment politicians and talking heads consistently and constantly for the longest time, they may finally have been dealt an incapacitating blow and are eventually likely to end up a government mouthpiece, just like the ccp mouthpieces cctv and xinhua to their north. And this is a problem when Trudeau cozies up to them too much, he'll keep his mouth shut if the chips are ever down and we'll look like fools.

They've always viewed Taiwan as their own internal matter, which is why any pretense of accepting the "one china" policy needs to go before the west can take the moral high ground of "protecting democracy in Taiwan". Besides, the way they've been loan sharking countries, they might not need to militarily "conquer" them, just point out the fact that most of the newly-built infrastucture in those countries belongs to them, or strip them bare of natural resources via the companies that have infiltrated those countries' key indusries. And when they do annex Taiwan, physically, there will be action. I fully believe China needs to be dealt with; I just wouldn't compare it to how Nazi Germany was responded to.

If this reactor ends up with a Chernobyl-style accident, you could kiss not only HK and Macau goodbye, but also the most populous province in China as well. Reveal hidden contents https://hongkongfp.com/2021/06/14/imminent-radiological-threat-french-firm-seeks-to-resolve-issue-at-chinese-nuclear-plant-opposite-hong-kong/ CBC decided to run with Associated Press' version: Reveal hidden contents https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/taishan-nuclear-report-gases-1.6064712 So as an authoritarian state, how do you prevent a nuclear power plant from being shut down due to buildup of gases? Just change the acceptable operating parameters and radiation levels. And the Biden administration's spokesperson isn't helping either - sure, the reactor's situation might not be "crisis level" or present a severe safety threat right now, but these reactors operate at high temperatures and pressures, and it only takes minutes (if not seconds) for a situation to go from normal to super-critical. China isn't the only government to lie about incidents like this. https://www.ecowatch.com/36-years-of-three-mile-islands-lethal-lies-and-still-counting-1882023488.html When will people get it into their heads ALL GOVERNMENTS LIE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been other articles on other web media sites that had similar reporting of similar situations for many of the arrested pro-democracy activists currently held in custody as well as those granted bail. I couldn't understand why the wording of those articles containing paragraphs like this bothered me so much - it wasn't until today that I figured out why: https://hongkongfp.com/2021/06/22/hong-kong-court-grants-bail-to-activist-owen-chow-pending-national-security-trial/ The problem with this arises from the criminal law principle of "presumption of innocence" based on the HK Bill of Rights. The specific words that bother me are "would not continue to commit" being a condition of granting (or denying) bail. Those very words have already presumed guilt before the case is even tried in court to determine whether or not the accused are proven guilty, because you can't "continue" if you haven't been determined to have even "started". This subtle judicial presumption of guilt before trial demonstrates to me that the national moronic security law has killed the rights of the HK people as mandated by law that long pre-dated the nmsl. @6of1_halfdozenofother your content here is appreciated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
