Trying to figure out the barrier strategy in CWB today (1-Oct). Never saw these before. Guess they are to prevent EV tourists from driving into E. Point Rd pedestrian areas from either Jaffe Road or Hennessey Rd/Yee Wo St. Waddaya think @transit_jam ?

A reminder it's been 21 months since #HongKong based SCMP #journalist Minnie Chan was last seen attending an event in Beijing. Last story filed November 1, 2023. Still no contact. We will never stop hoping for her safe return to her family. Will someone follow up this story?

Wish GovHK's official procurement vetting was as thorough as its official propaganda vetting. Maybe we could then get safe drinking water and safe shoes https://t.co/UM8hgqhDHs

The #HK Govt appears to believe that by denying visas to journalists one can improve coverage of HK, even as such denials generate negative publicity. Meanwhile nothing stops overseas journalists covering HK remotely. A rethink is needed.
