Nearly $1.1 Billion in Police Overtime Allowance - 70% Surveyed Dissatisfied
A recent document submitted by the Security Bureau to the Finance Committee of the
Legislative Council disclosed that during the 6 months (June to November) of anti-extradition protests, Police received overtime work and allowances totaling about $950 million.
The authorities further explained yesterday that the Police Force had issued a total of
about $135 million to police officers in the past six months. This allowance was $85
million and the meal allowance was $50 million, a total of nearly $1.1 billion, including
the previous overtime payment. Some members of the Democratic Party have
stressed that they are opposed to the increase in the police force. Commissioner
of Police Chris Tang Ping-keung should come to the Legislative Council to explain.
The latest survey by the Hong Kong Institute of Public Opinion shows that nearly 70% of
the respondents are not satisfied with the overtime work allowance paid to police officers.
Democratic Party Legislative Councillor James To said that the survey was shocking as it
was conducted in a relatively calm social environment. He believes that the main cause of
dissatisfaction among most citizens is the continuous abuse of power and force by the
police in the past few months, which endangers the safety of the public.
He quoted the recent case where hundreds of police were deployed to intercept students
at a sports meeting in Ma On Shan Stadium. He questioned whether that many police
were really needed in maintaining public order.

'Free Hong Kong' - Black Christmas Light Projection at Tai Kwun
On Christmas Eve last night, citizens gathered in various shopping malls and streets. Police
fired tear gas rounds in Tsimshatsui and Mongkok to disperse and arrested many people.
A former British archbishop strongly condemned the police action and urged the British
government to take concrete steps to protect Hong Kong's high degree of autonomy and
fundamental freedoms.
Around 6:30 tonight, a 'Black Christmas Light Projection Flashmob' at Tai Kwun was organised.
On the walls of the Prison Yard, compelling images of the anti-extradition protest rallies and
marches were projected, including images of the huge art works that had been displayed
on the Kwai Fong Lennon Wall. The projection lasted for about 20 minutes, attracting a
large number of people.
The most eye-catching images, included the ones on the Lennon Wall of the pedestrian
subway opposite Kwai Fong MTR station. With the reputation of 'Kwai Fong Lennon Art Museum', it had shown several large-scale very high quality art works, which have been
damaged and removed. On October 31, a huge Halloween-themed art work appeared,
dominated by black and included many movie characters including Joker, The Nun, V
for Vendetta, etc. They held the banner of 'Free Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Time
and the slogan '5 Demands, Not One Less'. The image is scary lies in the evil monsters
depicted, including Carrie Lam, Xi Jinping, Junius Ho and so on.
On the same walls in early November, Berlin-based LiCHTPiRATEN, a team of creative
artists, commemorated the 30th anniversary of the Fall of Berlin Walls through an
immersive and engrossing light installation and projection mapping of the German
people's fight for democracy and freedom against the authoritarian government.
Tonight's "Black Christmas Light Projection" radiated similar vibes.

Netizens initiated a different Christmas Eve celebration and 'Sing with You' at shopping
malls in 5 districts, including Times Square in Causeway Bay, Harbour City in Tsim Sha
Tsui, Langham Place in Mongkok, New Town Plaza in Shatin and Yoho Mall in Yuen Long.
Since June, Hong Kong people have endured the scorching sun, passed the deep
autumn, and greeted the cold winter. Finally, Christmas is here. It should have
been celebrated all over the world, and the whole city should cheer.
But the citizens could not forget that more than 5,000 were arrested, countless
detained, countless riot charges, Alec Chow and Chan Yin-lam killed directly,
countless forced to commit suicide by the regime, and Spark Alliance is accused
of money laundering. Hong Kong people are furious and came out on Christmas
Eve tonight, jamming the shopping malls in 5 districts.
At 7 pm, hundreds of people gathered in Times Square in Causeway Bay. Some hung
a black flag reading 'Free Hong Kong, Revolution Now"' and chanted slogans such
as '5 Demands, Not One Less' and sang "Glory to Hong Kong".

focus. On November 19, the European Parliament passed a resolution condemning the
Chinese government's restriction on the human rights and freedom of religious belief
of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang, and welcomed the recent Xinjiang-related bill passed
by the US Congress. In Jakarta, Indonesia, there are demonstrations in solidarity
with Xinjiang Uyghurs outside the Chinese embassy.

Silver Haired Rally in Central Against Political Remuneration
Today (21 December), the silver-haired seniors held a 'Name and Shame to End Political
Remuneration' rally at Edinburgh Place outside City Hall in Central. Based on recent report,
after the overwhelming victory by pan-Democrats in the November 24 district council
election, Carrie Lam plans to give public office to some unsuccessful candidates of
district elections as compensation, criticizing the move as political remuneration,
and said that if public institutions, etc, use political remuneration to appoint
unsuccessful candidates to the board or decision-making level or to grant
positions, they will initiate action to stop all donations and cooperation.
The rally was held from 1 pm to 5 pm, and a Letter of No Objection had been issued
by the police.
At 1 pm, the rally officially began, with over 100 people present. A spokesman for the
rally said that the pan-democrats won in 17 districts had already achieved the 'liberation
of the district councils' in the just-concluded district council elections. The next step is
the Legislative Council election. Then the declaration of the rally was read: if Chief
Executive Carrie Lam peovides public office to compensate for the lost candidates,
it would completely distort public opinion, political remuneration, and completely
unacceptable.

Largest Multi-District Flashmob - Piggie/Pepe Heads in Kwun Tong to Support Spark Alliance
Police called a high profile press conference yesterday, accusing the Spark Alliance, a
non-profit group that raises money to provide legal aid to arrested protesters, of
involving in "money laundering" activities, arrested three men and one woman, and
frozen $70 million in funds, but failed to provide specific money laundering evidence.
Barristers said that the money laundering allegation is outrageous.
Citizens have launched the largest ever 'Lunch with you' flashmob in Kwun Tong,
Central, Taikoo, Wong Chuk Hang, Kwai Chung, Kwai Fong, Cheung Sha Wan, San
Po Kong, and other districts today to support the Spark Alliance.
The network station 'Sing Jai' has previously recruited a group of volunteers and
produced over 100 fiberglass Pepe and Piggie masks which was used during the
protest march on 8 December. The sponsor, Lau Sai-leung, said: 'I hope to tell
the world with a humorous, confident, and relaxed manner that after half a year
of tyranny in Hong Kong, Hong Kong people are still united.' The Piggie and Pepe
are two cartoon characters that often appear on the Lennon Walls. They are the
most representative and recognizable resistance mascot. Many people wore these
masks today to participate in the flashmob protest in Kwun Tong.
Beginning at 1 pm, hundreds of citizens and office workers gathered outside the
Kwun Tong Chun Yip Street Playground and shouted, chanted '5 Demands, Not
One Less'. Many held up posters in support of the Spark Alliance. The crowd also
sang the protest song "Glory to Hong Kong", chanted slogans such as
'Disbanding the police without delay'.

Michael Chugani and Chip Tao on 'What Next for Hong Kong?'
Master Insight organised a seminar in Wanchai on 'What Next for Hong Kong?' last
night (18 December) to explore the results of the recent district council elections
with the unexpected overwhelming success of the pan-Democrats.
Michael Chugani, a senior journalist who has worked in news agencies in Britain, the
United States, Hong Kong and other places, a well-known TV current affairs host
and columnist, made in-depth analyses for the guests.
After the "Umbrella Movement" in 2014, he pointed out with great insight that Hong
Kong's independence is not feasible; today, with similar incisive views, he pointed
out the shortcomings of the Carrie Lam government administration, the disillusion
of the young protesters, and reveals where he thinks Hong Kong is heading.
Unless Carrie Lam summons the courage to tell her Beijing superiors to stop eroding
Hong Kong's autonomy, allowing genuine democratic elections and ending
widespread mainlandisation, the Hong Kong crisis could end in tragedy.
Carrie Lam and her bosses thought that the anger on the streets would eventually
dissipate, everything would return to normal? They are deluding themselves.
'Hong Kong's No. 1 Talent' Chip Tao as the guest host, of course, also shared his
brilliant commentaries. He pointed out that Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam
had lost the opportunity for reconciliation many times and should have resigned
long time ago as the root cause of the current crisis since June. The key to
resolution lies in Lam and her superior up north who initiated the fiasco.

108 Piggie/Pepe Heads Join Dec 8 March Flooding Hong Kong Island
The Civil Hunan Rights Front (CHRF) initiated the International Human Rights Day March
on Sunday on December 8. Massive crowd gathered at 2 pm, and started marching at
3 pm from Victoria Park to Chater Road.The Assembly has arranged 200 pickets. This
is the first time that the CHRF march has been approved since 21 July.
The network station 'Sing Jai' has previously recruited a group of volunteers, including
designers and professional craftsmen, and produced 108 fiberglass Pepe and Piggie
masks, to be used during the march. The sponsor, Lau Sai-leung, said: 'I hope to tell
the world with a humorous, confident, and relaxed manner that after half a year of
tyranny in Hong Kong, Hong Kong people still have not given up. They are still united
and confident to face the future. The Piggie and Pepe are two cartoon characters
that often appear on the Lennon Walls. They are the most representative and
recognizable resistance mascot. The 108 masks have different designs, they are
painted in different colour, and they symbolize people with a story behind each
one. I just want to attract the attention of foreign media during the parade and
tell the world one by one what we have experienced in this campaign.'
When all lanes outside Victoria Park (the starting point of the protest march) are
crowded with demonstrators, it is foreseen that this is another epic march for
democracy. This time it may exceed 1 million again. Tens of thousands joined
the march midway at Causeway Bay and Wanchai.

20,000 Rally in Central Against Excessive Tear Gas
Riot police fired more than 12,000 tear gas canisters during the recent protests. The smoke
poisoned most districts in the city. Many people experienced symptoms such as persistent
dyspnea and skin rash after exposure, and more worried about dioxin pollution caused by
tear gas, but the government has still refused to disclose the composition of tear gas.
Welfare minister Law Chi-kwong said that the level of carcinogenic dioxins resulting
from a police crowd-control weapon was minimal compared with that released
from barbecue activities and was widely challenged.
Last night, a 'Tear Gas Endangers Your Health Rally' was held at Edinburgh Place,
Central, inviting medical staff, scientific experts and others to speak, urging the
government to publicize the composition of tear gas and implement remedial
measures. 20,000 attended, according to organisers.
Masked members of the Citizens' Press Conference, a self-styled representative group
of protesters, said they had interviewed 17,000 people who were exposed to the smoke,
with up to 23 per cent claiming they suffered breathing problems, watery eyes and
skin irritation for a prolonged period; about 17% of the respondents reported skin
rash and other problems, up to 16% had abdominal pain or diarrhea, and about
5% had severe symptoms such as hemoptysis and bleeding.

Abandoned Taichung: Qianyue Building Redevelopment Uncertain
Located near Taichung Railway Station, the 44-year-old Qianyue Building has large
department stores, restaurants, night clubs, and karaoke in the 1980s. Tourists
abound, but it was abandoned for many years after a fire in 2005. Most of the building
is now strewn with colorful graffiti spray-painted by various street artists.
The Taichung city government is nearing completion of the 'Xinsheng Green Waterway
Corridor', which will renovate a 610-meter irrigation canal to create a tourist attraction
and economically beneficial river bank. The authorities are wary to have an
abandoned Qianyue Building still standing on the riverfront.
However, there is still no consensus on the dispute between the landlord and the
building owner in retaining the shell or dismantling and rebuilding. The plans
had been changed several times and are still uncertain.

Abandoned Taichung: Qianyue Building
The Qianyue Building is one of the most well-known abandoned buildings in Taiwan. Located only a few minutes from
Taichung Station, it is astonishing to find it in the heart of central Taichung, the second largest city in Taiwan.
The 3-storey UFO-like tower at the roof was once a Karaoke bar with a 360-degree panaramic view of the city.
Most of the building is now splattered with colourful graffiti spray-painted by various street artists.
Over the years, many urban explorers have come to explore for free, and many curious people have come to
take pictures and post on social media. Recently, some so-called "artists" started to charge NT$100 for
admissions. Those who did not agree were driven away with a baseball bat. Suspected hooliganism.
This mixed-use commercial and residential high-rise was originally built in the 1970s. The place was a home to huge
department store, restaurants, night clubs, and karaoke around the 80s, but it didn't last long. By the 90s, majority
of the business owners have left, along with the residents. In 2005, a fire broke out in a dance club on the 7th
floor and that put an end to the commercial life of the building.

The National Taichung Theatre, designed by Japanese architect Ito Toyo, is the new landmark that the city

without supporting pillars or 90-degree walls.
The theatre is equipped with three professional performing venues which meet international standards:
Grand Theatre, Playhouse and Black Box. They can each be adapted to fit the needs of various
types of productions.
