The Grand External Propaganda 大外宣 machine has begun, and mysterious forces have engaged French director Benoît Lelièvre to make a documentary film called "Spring, Seeing Hong Kong Again" (hereinafter referred to as "SSHKA") to promote Hong Kong and China's image abroad.
Publisher Mountzero reports Magaret Ng's essay collection 'Hong Kong in the Rain' was requested to be removed from Taikwun BOOKED art book fair. No official reason was given, but questions were raised about essays being an art form. The book compiles Ng's writings since 2019.
The cover of the book is illustrated by renowned director Ann Hui.
You can get the book at the usual decent bookstores in town. You can also buy it online at @hoccgoomusic Denise Ho's Online store.

The white Porsche with the US8964 license plate -a familiar sight near Victoria Park on June 4th- drew police scrutiny again this year. The driver said he was tailed from Kowloon today before being pulled over, and insinuated he fears this could be his last June 4th ride.
Hunter Bookstore had police stationed outside today, checking IDs of customers entering. Why? Probably because the day after tomorrow is June 4th. The store is run by former district councillor Leticia Wong, and is often "frequented" by men in uniform over vexatious complaints.
False. This was not part of the Chinese New Year celebration. It was part of the "KGV Silver Jubilee Procession", and took place on May 5, 1935.

There are a lot of other candidates but my favourite is CANDIDATE No. 8 - 財仔 / CHOI JAI from Sham Shui Po.
He is fighting for extra time for cute girls/姐姐 to cross the road and to build a meowtiful community together.

Chiu claimed the carnival has a political agenda, and brought up self-exiled activist Agnes Chow, "During Occupy and the riots, it's the same group of pro-democracy activist kids. If they gather, they may protest against the government again. Agnes Chow also supported the gays."
Junius Ho was of course present at the petition to support Chiu's cause. He said, "The clash of both events would divert attention". They urged that the government not lease the West Kowloon Cultural District grounds to @PinkdotHK.
Chiu said, "There'll be divine judgment..."
“A typhoon hit HK a day before same-sex partners spousal visas were granted in 2018. There were forest fires in Canada & US when they promoted same-sex marriage or sexual liberation."
