蕭叔叔短評被譽為「人生有呢種朋友不枉此生」的黃仁龍那十頁紙求情信

全文：

（報章轉載錯漏不少，敬請留意）

I have known Mr Donald Tsang since 2005. As Secretary for Justice (SJ), I worked closely with Donald as Chief Executive (CE) between October 2005 and June 2012. In addition to official dealings, I consider Donald to be a good friend and someone I admire for his dedication to public service.

Donald's over 40 years of service and contribution to Hong Kong is a matter of public record. Others will speak to his key role in helping Hong Kong weather through stormy financial crises. Here I would refer to his significant contributions to the public based on my own personal experience particularly in the area of the rule of law in Hong Kong.

During my 7-year tenure as SJ, I had on numerous occasions tendered legal advice to Donald as CE. He would sometimes debate with me and test the basis of the advice; but he has never acted against such legal advice. This in itself is a remarkable attribute as the head of the HKSAR.

Donald always said to me the Governors he previously worked with, however headstrong, would always abide by the legal advice of the Attorney General, and it is important that the CE of the HKSAR should stay that way.

Congo Case

One of the most important tasks, if not the most important task, of the CE of HKSAR is to faithfully and effectively implement the principle of “one country, two systems.” The power of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPCSC) to interpret the Basic Law and its exercise have always been considered a major challenge to the post-1997 constitutional order.

During my tenure as SJ, the NPCSC interpreted the Basic Law once in 2011. That was upon the reference by the Court of Final Appeal (CFA) on the question of state immunity. The issue in the case is whether the People’s Republic of China’s doctrine of absolute immunity (under which no foreign state can be sued in the court at all) should be followed in Hong Kong. Prior to 1997, Hong Kong’s common law provided for restrictive immunity, where foreign states could be sued if the dispute arouse out of commercial transactions.

The HKSAR Government lost in the Court of First Instance and in the Court of Appeal. If the Government were to lose again in the CFA, it could stir up serious political and economic repercussions for China particularly vis-à-vis her African friends. National interest of China was at stake. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was understandably very concerned.

Immense political pressure mounted. There were suggestions that Beijing should not take any risk but should consider taking more definitive measures such as an interpretation of the Basic Law before the appeal was heard. If that were to happen, on the eve of the appeal hearing, the damage to judicial independence would not be less than an overriding post-judgment interpretation.

I cannot go into further details for confidentiality reasons. However, I can testify that Donald has been solid and staunch in endorsing my stance against any extra-judicial measure in view of its adverse impact on the rule of law.

Owing in no small part to Donald’s endorsement and resolve, the Central People’s Government (CPG) was content to trust the HKSAR Government and the CFA, and to leave the appeal to be heard by the highest court, despite grave risk and many conflicting views given by others. At the end, the Government won in the CFA by a majority of 3 to 2. The Court further referred the relevant Basic Law provisions to Beijing for interpretation, as required under Article 158 of the Basic Law, before pronouncing the final judgment. A huge constitutional crisis was warded off. The rule of law had prevailed.

Over this difficult episode, I know Donald had been under tremendous pressure. I remember often times he suffered from acute acid reflux before and after major discussions. Yet he stood firm throughout.

As CE, Donald had faithfully discharged the indispensable trust reposed by both the CPG and by Hong Kong. He had the courage to stand by what he believes to be right and the ability to address mutual concerns and to strengthen mutual understanding. He had performed well the crucial bridging role in the two-way process under “one country, two systems” at critical times.

Constitutional Reform

There was another important event in which Donald’s principled stance had been vital in achieving a favourable result for Hong Kong: constitutional reform.

Although no change could be made of the imminent 2017 CE election method due to the set-backs in 2016, during Donald’s tenure as CE, he has been made significant contributions toward moving Hong Kong closer to universal suffrage.

The first landmark was achieved, with tremendous efforts by the core team under Donald’s lead, when the NPCSC delivered its decision in December 2007 setting out “the timetable” and “road map” for universal suffrage in terms of the elections of CE and Legco.

Second, in 2010, the Government managed to secure Legco’s support to pass the 2012 constitutional reform package. Here, Donald had played a pivotal role, one perhaps not many are aware of.

Whether the 2012 reform package could be passed in 2010 was crucial to ensure “gradual and orderly progress” and that the next round (i.e. the intended goals of universal suffrage in electing CE in 2017) could be achieved.

In June 2010, the original government proposal was losing support and hope was vanishing for it to be passed at Legco. Time was running out. Whether to modify the package by incorporating a proposal of the Democratic Party (i.e. the additional 5 District Council Functional Constituency seats to be elected by over 3 million electorate, “the new DCFC election method”) appeared to be the lynchpin.

Without going into details again for confidentiality reasons, I can again testify that the make-or-break moment was when Donald made the timely and difficult decision to revise the package by incorporating the new DCFC election method. It was an agonizing decision for him as he had to override certain internal opposition and to risk personal credibility and trust before the CPG. As an insider, I know that decision was not a political manoeuvre but a selfless act for the sake of the long-term wellbeing of Hong Kong and the smooth transition toward universal suffrage.

Son of Hong Kong

Donald is truly a “son of Hong Kong” (香港仔). His genuine concern for the public good is most vividly demonstrated when Hong Kong was caught in crises of one kind of another.

Hong Kong went through attacks of avian flu and swine flu. Donald tirelessly headed the cross-bureau task forces and chaired long and intensive meetings. I remember more than once Donald being caught in very heated debates with colleagues, pushing them to the limit to mobilize maximum resources and manpower, in order to give the public maximum protection against these outbreaks. He would grill colleagues over thorny issues such as requisitioning hotels as places of quarantine, not satisfied with the usual civil service response of reluctance, as lives of many were at stake.

Over the Manila hostage incident in August 2010, Donald vigorously pressed the President of the Philippines for full investigation, joining the victims’ families and the rest of Hong Kong to cry for justice, although his action raised eyebrows as foreign affairs strictly is a matter of the CPG under Article 13 of the Basic Law.

Donald had a strong concern for young people. During my tenure, exceptionally I was commissioned to chair a Steering Committee to combat drug abuse by youth. The public might not realize this initiative in fact came from Donald. He was deeply concerned and alarmed by the reports reflecting the seriousness of the problem. He was determined to tackle the problem pro-actively. The Steering Committee was unprecedented, involving concerted and strategic efforts of different departments and bureaus. More importantly, Donald was instrumental in putting in substantial and sustainable resources to strengthen the efforts. The figures of reported drug abusers, particularly among young abusers, have seen significant decline in the past few years.

Other contributions on the rule of law

There was no shortage of controversial cases involving judicial reviews and fundamental human rights. Amidst other voices and political pressure, Donald had fully taken on board the legal position that the Government has a positive duty to protect such rights, including taking reasonable and appropriate measures to enable lawful demonstrations to take place peacefully.

Further, Donald also readily took on my advice regarding procedural fairness in handling Government businesses with quasi-judicial element such as administrative appeals.

Donald truly believes in judicial independence. He assured me repeatedly the independent and internationally renowned Judiciary in the HKSAR is our pride and the cornerstone of our success. His personal commitment to this cause is manifested in his positive response in acceding to many recommendations of the Mason Report endorsed by the Standing Committee on Judicial Salaries and Conditions of Service.

Furthermore, his conviction on the importance of the law as Hong Kong’s assets was amply manifested in his exceptional support in the development of Hong Kong’s capacity as an international arbitration centre. Donald was very understanding on the need of expansion on this front and had put in personal efforts to make it happen. He was instrumental in enabling resources are in place to secure additional space for the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre, and to procure the arbitration arm of the International Chamber of Commerce and the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission to set up regional offices in Hong Kong.

A fair man who has given much to the public

Before joining the Government, I was an Election Committee member of the Legal Subsector elected on the same ticket as Ms Audrey Eu, Mr Alan Leong and other vocal barristers. In that capacity, in 2005, I first met Donald in an election forum where I questioned him harshly and criticised the Government’s earlier attitude over certain rule of law issues. Instead of bearing any grudge, in the late summer of 2005, Donald invited me to take up the post as SJ, assuring me that he would give me full support in upholding the rule of law in Hong Kong. That quality of fairness in Donald and that personal assurance to me have never slackened in the following 7 years in which I served in his cabinet.

As CE of the HKSAR, Donald had truly poured himself out. I strongly believe his significant contributions to Hong Kong in the past over 4 decades should be properly recognized.

Dated the 20th day of Februray 2017.

#covid19
#WuHan #Pneumonia
#CoronaVirus
#Taiwan
I have been observing that the epidemic of China, South Korea, Italy, Iran, and other countries worsens dramatically, the Wuhan Pneumonia confirmed cases not only increase from two-digit to serious outbreak, but also rise rapidly with three-digit to surge the community infection terribly which finally lead to collapse the health care system. Why?

From my perspective, the reasons which demolish those countries` medical system are that the unwillingness to implement the border controlling, no tracing individuals who contacted the confirmed case and no home quarantine requirement to these individuals. Worse than that is allowing the mildness confirmed cases and the individuals who had contacted those confirmed cases to go freely everywhere. Then Wuhan pneumonia Covid-19 spreads, the epidemic outbreak, and destroys the medical system eventually!

When many country’s health authorities and the international media recognize Taiwan’s epidemic preventions as a Gold Standard, people may ask ‘what has Taiwan done right?” The answers would be early intervention, a clear command structure and transparent communication with the public. Plus the high quality of health care system and affordable cost to everyone.

There are several decisions being made by Taiwan government to arrest the spread of the WuHan pneumonia (COVID- 19) :

First at all, the efforts of epidemic prevention work are coordinated by the Minister of Health and Welfare Commander - Chen Shizhong, and the command system is consisting of medical, public health, epidemic prevention experts.

Taiwan government conducts the quarantine and at-home self-management according to the travel history. In addition, the disclosure of travel history is not only dependent on individuals’ description, but also revealed from the health insurance card thru vpn cloud.

Furthermore, the Taiwan authority also makes decisions to control the border and manage the travel alert. Besides, all the travelers return from the epidemic area have to be quarantine for 14 days at government expense. Every confirmed case in Taiwan is not only hospitalized into the negative-pressure ward treatment and quarantine regardless of light or severe cases covered by the National Health Insurance. Taiwan CDC also traces each one of the confirmed case contacted. Taiwan government will test those people who have contacted with the confirmed case in government expense. If the result of the test is negative, this person will be required home quarantine for 14 days. If the result is positive, this person will be hospitalized into the negative-pressure ward treatment at government expense. Every home quarantine person will have a subsidy of 1,000 NT per day. Regardless of mild or severe cases, every patient confirmed should be treated and isolated in negative pressure isolation rooms, covered by Health Insurance.

In addition, all of the Academia Sinica, National Health Research Institutes and Taiwan-based Biotechnology Taiwan are co-ordinated by Vice President - Chen, Chien-Jen, work on the Rapid Coronavirus Diagnostic Test, vaccines, medical treatment and medication measures etc. Taiwan’s performance in developing these solutions is in the leading group of the world.

The cooperation and integration among each Ministry is led by the Vice Premier of Executive Yuan, Chi-mai Chen. All the cooperation is to support the epidemic prevention commander. For examples:
- to build 60 sets brand new machines and production lines in order to increase mask production quantity up-to 6 million pieces per day within 20 days. This difficult task is accomplished by the cooperation of Ministry of Economic Affairs and Ministry of national defense.
- the exceptional assistances in against viruses with IT and big data analysis by the IT Minister Audrey Tang.
- the efficient execution of border management by the Ministry of Interior and the customs of Ministry of Finance.

The maintenance of the country`s stability and administrative operation by the
Premier of Executive Yuan, Tseng-chang Su.

The regular high-level national security meetings to coordinate the progress of
each department which is hosted by the President of Taiwan, Tsai Ing-wen, as well as to command the national military and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

My dear friends, this is how my country works on protecting our people. This is our #TAIWAN.

定宇觀察中國、韓國、義大利、伊朗等國疫情，從二位數確診病例到大爆發，快速的以三位數、社區感染暴增病例，最後拖垮醫療體系，原因何在？
在於...邊境不管理、確診不主動溯源、不主動追究密切接觸確診者、輕症和接觸確診者不隔離，導致帶原者滿街趴趴走，一發就不可收拾，然後醫療體系無法處理，終至崩潰！

而台灣這次的武漢肺炎防疫作為，不是靠運氣，更不是僥倖，被國際衛生部門和國際媒體公認的「台灣防疫黃金標準」是什麼？台灣做對了什麼？

台灣防制武漢肺炎（COVID-19）做法：防疫工作由衛福部部長「陳時中」指揮官統籌，由醫療、公衛、防疫專家為指揮系統，台灣用旅遊史來進行檢疫和居家自主管理，而旅遊史的揭露不只是靠當事人自訴，還靠科技能力用健保卡VPN來揭露。決定邊境管理、旅遊警示，而從疫區回台，一樣集中隔離14天，公費處理。台灣每個確診病例，不分輕重症，都收容負壓病房治療、隔離，費用是國家健保給付，還追查確診者接觸的每一個人，進行檢測和居家隔離14天，採檢是公費，隔離者每天還有補助1000元，盡力做到隔離傳染源。

中研院、國衛院和全台灣的生物科技公司，由副總統「陳建仁」統籌指揮，進行病毒株研究，目前快篩、疫苗、治療用藥都跑在全球前段班。

跨部會的協調，整合部會力量支援防疫指揮官，包括經濟部「沈榮津」提升口罩製造量、科技政委「唐鳳」以大數據IT協助防疫、內政部支援邊境管理執行、陸委會對中協調等由行政院副院長「陳其邁」統籌。

行政院長「蘇貞昌」則維持國家大政穩定。

「蔡英文」總統定期召開國安高層會議，瞭解彼此和各部門的進度，並指揮國軍、外交部應處。

各位，這就是我們的國家
所以 #我台灣我驕傲

Guangzhou (simplified Chinese: 广州; traditional Chinese: 廣州; Cantonese pronunciation: [kʷɔ̌ːŋ.tsɐ̂u̯] or [kʷɔ̌ːŋ.tsɐ́u̯] ( listen); Mandarin pronunciation: [kwàŋ.ʈʂóu] ( listen)), traditionally romanised as Canton, is the capital and most populous city of the province of Guangdong in southern China. Located on the Pearl River about 120 km (75 mi) north-northwest of Hong Kong and 145 km (90 mi) north of Macau, Guangzhou was a major terminus of the maritime Silk Road and continues to serve as a major port and transportation hub.

Guangzhou is currently, the third most-populous city in mainland China, behind Beijing and Shanghai; holds sub-provincial administrative status; and is one of China's five National Central Cities. In 2015 the city's administrative area was estimated to have a population of 13,501,100 and forms part of one of the most populous metropolitan agglomerations on Earth. Some estimates place the population of the built-up area of the Pearl River Delta Mega City as high as 44 million without the Hong Kong SAR and 54 million including it. Guangzhou is identified as a Beta+ Global city. In recent years, there has been a rapidly increasing number of foreign residents and illegal immigrants from the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia, as well as from Africa. This has led to it being dubbed the "Capital of the Third World". The migrant population from other provinces of China in Guangzhou was 40 percent of the city's total population in 2008. Most of them are rural migrants, and they speak only Mandarin.

Guangzhou was long the only Chinese port permitted for most foreign traders. The city proper fell to the British and was opened by the First Opium War. It lost trade to other ports such as Hong Kong and Shanghai, but continued to serve as a major entrepôt. In modern commerce, Guangzhou is best known for its annual Canton Fair, the oldest and largest trade fair in China. For the three consecutive years 2013–2015, Forbes ranked Guangzhou as the best commercial city on the Chinese mainland.

Let's take a proper look at Guangzhou, one of the four 1st tier cities in China...

China's most iconic gaming console is the "Red White Machine" otherwise known as a famiclone (knockoff NES or knockoff Famicom) the company that has been producing them in China non-stop for 30 years has just released the 30th Anniversary version of their "Red White Machine", I got my hands on one and decided to talk about how gaming in China has always had a bit of a difficult history.

Video games in China is a massive industry and pastime that includes the production, sale, import/export, and playing of video games. China is the largest and highest grossing (revenues) video game market in the world, since 2015. The landscape of the topic is strongly shaped by China's average income level, rampant software piracy, and governmental measures to control game content and playing times. In 2011, China's PC game sector was worth $6 billion, the largest in the world. Arcade games are also a thriving industry in China. Console games were banned from the country in 2000, but the ban was lifted in July 2015.

In eSports, China has been the top country in terms of tournament winnings, possessing some of the world's best talents across video games.

The Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau have unique legal and cultural environments, thus the information below does not apply in these two regions.

As with almost all mass media in the country, video games in China are subject to the policies of censorship in China.

Violating basic principles of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China
Threatening national unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity
Divulging state secrets
Threatening state security
Damaging national sovereignty
Disturbing social order
Infringing upon others' rights

On July 2015, the ban on video game consoles within the country was lifted. According to a statement from the country's Ministry of Culture, companies like Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft — among others — will now be allowed to manufacture and sell video game consoles anywhere in the country.

Game consoles were first banned in 2000 due to fears that the devices — and the 3D worlds produced by them — had a negative effect on the mental and physical development of children. In 2015, China eased those restrictions by letting game console-makers operate in an experimental 11-square-mile area in Shanghai, known as the free trade zone.

The State General Administration of Press and Publication and anti-porn and illegal publication offices have also played a role in screening games.

Examples of banned games have included:

Hearts of Iron (for "distorting history and damaging China's sovereignty and territorial integrity")
I.G.I.-2: Covert Strike (for "intentionally blackening China and the Chinese army's image")
Command & Conquer: Generals - Zero Hour (for "smearing the image of China and the Chinese army")
Battlefield 4 (for "smearing the image of China and endangering national security")
In addition to banning games completely, several games have had their content screened to remove certain imagery deemed offensive or unfavorable. Common examples include skeletons or skulls being either fleshed out or removed entirely. Cases of which can be seen in Chinese versions of popular video games such as DOTA 2 and World of Warcraft.

SLIDE 1
An estimated 15,000 to 20,000 dogs are destroyed every year in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong Dog Rescue has been fighting to save lives since 2003.

(Video: Sally at WNP, petting Magnus)
"You are OK?"
"Magnus is one of the litter we called the Whippetties, I call the Whippetties, one of the breeds I've invented. He and his eight siblings came into government kennels when they were five or six weeks old."

(video of puppies rescued from AFCD at Acorn)
Sally Andersen, Founder and Chairperson, Hong Kong Dog Rescue (HKDR)
"The majority are from the government AFCD, Agricultural and Fisheries Conservation Animal Management Centers, and in fact initially, that's why we set up, or I set up Hong Kong Dog Rescue, was specifically to take those dogs, because they have four days and then they are then put to sleep. But now we are seeing more and more dogs being surrendered directly to us, and also breeders,dogs coming from breeders. (27 secs)

SLIDE 2
All dogs are health checked, vaccinated, licensed and desexed.
A rigorous screening process aims to find the best home for each dog.
Every Sunday is Puppy Adoption Day at Whiskers N Paws.

(WNP adoption day)
Sally Andersen, Founder and Chairperson, Hong Kong Dog Rescue (HKDR)
"We ask adopters to fill in the questionnaire, and then we try to recommend to them the dog that would be suit their situation. People are very attracted to a look, a breed name, size and all the rest of it. Sometimes it's difficult to persuade adopters that the dog that they want to take home isn't the ideal dog and then often the dog comes back. But we just try to make sure that it's the right dog for the right home. (32 secs)

(Kirk and Lionel holding Whippetty pups after bringing them home for foster)
Kirk Troy, adopted Whippetty pup Merlin from HKDR
"We went to consider the idea of getting A dog, these two little six-week old puppies ended up coming home as our fosters. They are too young to be separated right? We will see. And Lionel fell in love with the little boy over here immediately. Now I have someone who likes to clean my beard." (25 secs)

Andy Brace, Site Assistant, HKDR Tai Po Homing Centre
"Cleanliness is a big thing. Obviously, we check everyday that no dogs are looking sick, any injuries, because we have a few fights, and deal with it that way. When they need to go to the vet, they are taken out to the vet. (12 secs)

May Chow, Manager, HKDR Tai Po Homing Centre
"We do take in some older dogs, because some of them are as old as nine, 10 years old. As long as they feel loved, I guess, they will bond with you. It's easy, it's a matter of time, of course, but they will, they will bond with you."
