1/ The police force has recently replaced their Daily Hi-MATIC Emergency unit vehicles manufactured by IVECO in Italy with customised vehicles from Mercedes in Germany. The new vehicle design is also equipped with heavily tinted windows.

4/ Even if foreign countries prohibit the export of riot weapons to the HK Police, the police can still buy weapons in the name of other departments. It proved the current tendering system is extremely opaque!

1/ HKGov has invited tenders for its “Relaunch HK” campaign as a desperate attempt to restore its international image through public relations & publicity efforts. Hence, HKPRU is of the view that Gov has never genuinely looked at the crux of the matter. fb.com/11267458691068…

Internally, the CCP tries to silence people’s voices. In foreign affairs, it tries to run the show, but this misleading propaganda is useless, because the world, under free flow of information can recognize how's the crackdown on protests in HK. codastory.com/disinformation…

While Beijing used the coronavirus to suppress protest with aggressive measures, it is my pleasure to explain with @dpletka & @marcthiessen from @AEI that why it’s more important than ever that the world stands with HK.

How Hong Kong Did It —— With the government flailing, the city’s citizens decided to organize their own coronavirus response. The secret sauce of Hong Kong’s response was its people and, crucially, the movement that engulfed the city in 2019.

Seared with SARS in 2003, & already mobilized for protest against unpopular gov, HKers acted swiftly, collectively, & efficiently, in effect saving themselves. Organizational capacity & civic infrastructure built by protest played a central role in HK’s grassroots response.
