At least one girl was fined for HK$2,000 for allegedly violating the #HongKong Govt’s public gathering ban, as dozens of #HongKongPolice surrounded a group in busy #MongKok. The people were giving out masks & sanitisers, as their street booth had items of #HongKongProtests

Ironically, after 8.18 rally at Victoria Park for which several pro-democracy activists were charged today for organising & taking part in unlawful assembly, #HongKong Govt spoke at how it was a peaceful & that it’d planned talks with #AntiELAB protesters

@civicpartyhk lawmaker Dennis Kwok, who's been presiding over the House Committee's filibuster, says #Beijing's statement on "internal matters of #Legco" is a clear violation of the One Country, Two Systems principle & it's a form of "political invectives" to accuse him of crimes twitter.com/damon_pang/sta…

#RTHK’s @RTHK_HK response: after reviewing the whole episode of the @thepulse_rthk, we do not think it violated “One Country, Two Systems”, nor the station’s charter #HongKong twitter.com/damon_pang/sta…

Credit goes to @yvonne_tg, the story even got picked up by the People’s Daily on FB. Some people commenting on the state media’s page of course linked “#Taiwan independence” with #HongKong independence twitter.com/nathanlawkc/st…

After #HongKongPolice made a Facebook post thanking 300,000 people/accounts liking their page, people apparently unliked it en masse, the figure dipped below 300,000. Some users note that people can follow instead of liking a page to get info #HongKong

#HongKongPolice warned & yelled at an old woman with a (purple) banner "God wipe out the CCP" that if "I see u in Tai Po again, I'll arrest u for unlawful assembly", as crowd gathers in district 2 oppose the plan 2 have a designated #Covid clinic there #HongKongProtests #HongKong

.@HKDemocrats lawmaker Helena Wong says even though there’s more money planned for the Hospital Authority in the #Budget2020, the HA also issued letters to staff who took part in the #HAEA strike at the start of this month demanding border seal. “Is this settling score or what?”

#BREAKING #HongKong’s have the second death case of #coronavirus, the 70 year old man died at Princess Margaret Hospital. He’s the 55th confirmed case in #HK

#RTHK has stood by its satirical Cantonese TV programme Headliner for mocking #HongKongPolice, which wrote to the broadcaster expressing extreme regret about the programme for “upending right & wrong” by ignoring officers’ work in fighting epidemic.....

Question: does anyone in #HongKong get to violate the law three times, get a warning for the first two offenses, & then only get arrested the third time round?
Say, those involved in #HongKongProtests? twitter.com/XinqiSu/status…

Another nurse who spoke to us said she’s worked at public hospitals for 20+ years, & situation now is worse than SARS. “The problem now is that most patients we treat are non-locals, they conceal their travel history or illness. It’s not us trying to discriminate mainlanders....”

One by one, #HongKong public hospital workers who are on strike demanding a full border seal from non-locals submit a petition to the Hospital Authority at it’s HQ #HAEA #nCoV2019 #WuhanCoronovirus #WuhanVirus #China

#NOW: #HongKong leader #CarrieLam says she’s not wearing a mask to save them for those who need them in light of a global supply shortage. Says she’s told her ministers the same that if they are not sick or met with high risk groups/went to crowded places they should take em off
173
As #CarrieLam left after the end of the presser, reporters asked 1) why she didn’t wear a mask, 2) why she’s leaving loopholes in the two still-open borders. The #HongKong leader simply walked away
174
#NOW: #HongKong leader #CarrieLam announces tighter border control measures, closing ALL land and sea borders except Shenzhen Bay & the Bridge to Macau & Zhuhai, starting midnight tonight

#HongKongPolice warn that those on the bridge were suspicious of taking part in an unlawful assembly as the crowd exceeded 50 people & they didn’t inform the police chief about the action. Most protesters then left with just smaller crowds staying around to heckle cops or chant
