#LawrenceLauWaiChung said, "Not guilty, sir," elegant as usual.
#LamCheukTing almost roared, "I don't plead guilty!"
#LeungKwokHung (a.k.a. #LongHair) said, "[I'm] Innocent. Plead not guilty."
#WinnieYuWaiMing raised her right hand and stated, "Not guilty."
The magistrate, Peter Law Tak Chuen, referred the 17 defendants to the High Court for trial.
The other 29 of them chose to plead guilty. Among them, #TiffanyYuenKaWai, #FrankieFungTatChuen, #CarolNgManYee, #GaryFanKwokWai and #HendickLuiChiHang, refused to agree all facts of the cases.
Everyone has a different way of pleading guilty:
#TiffanyYuen whispered, "Plead ah! (認呀！)."
#FergusLeungFongWai said with a tone of no choice, "Plead guilty lo! (認囉！)."
#FrankieFung said in Cantonese, "I plead guilty," then repeated in Mandarin, "I plead guilty, I know I was wrong,” causing the auditorium to laugh and #KwokKaKi thumbs up with a smile.
#LauChakFung just left his seat for the washroom, and somebody said, "he will plead guilty even in the toilet."
#JoshuaWong slowly spoke out, "Plead~ guilty~."
#LiKaTat shouted, "PG!"
#TamTakChi (a.k.a. #FastBeat) confidently said while brushing his hair, "I am 'handsome'" [Handsome has a similar sound as "plead" in Cantonese]
#WuChiWai followed, "Plead ah! (認呀！)," looking at #TamTakChi, and they both laughed.
#SamCheungHoSum declared, "I plead, I plead, I plead (認啊認啊認啊)" in one go.
#VentusLauWingHong said, "For the love of my country, I plead guilty," raising uproar among defendants.
Law, the magistrate, asked whether the 26 defendants agreed with the case.
#AuNokHin stood up at that moment and expressed heavily, "I confirmed the case, and I would like to apologise to all defendants because I could not ensure the election was legal." He then slightly bowed to the defendants.
#AndrewChiuKaYin also apologized, but expressionless, "I confirm the overall case, and I apologise to everyone who helped in the pre-election." Some defendants jeered, "What are you saying (講呢啲)?"
#TamTakChi (a.k.a #FastBeat) shouted as usual, "I agree with the plot!", followed by a severe facial expression, "I agree, I agree (同意啊、同意啊)," which brought laughter to the courtroom. He then turned around, spoke to #ClaudiaMo, "Yes, excellent!" and raised his arms to the air with thumbs up.
#LeslieShumOFai interrupted, "I am not a comedy actor."
The magistrates confirmed whether Tam agreed with the entire case. He answered, "Yes, then I agree with the full case." Law raises the question once more, "You agree?" "The plot? Yes." Tam replied
It is understood that there will be no jury at the trial. This case will be handled by three designed judges, as in the case of #TongYingKit. It reminds us of #OwenChowKaShing, who did not plead guilty and yelled at the court after the restriction on reporting was lifted, "Trial without a jury is unjust."
This was probably the most potent conclusion in West Kowloon Magistrates' Courts for a year and a half.

Cyberspace Administration of China: Already Held 30 Large IT Companies' Algorithm Technologies
Cyber Administration of China (#CAC) indicated on #Aug12 that 30 top IT companies have submitted part of their algorithm details, such as how to collect personal data and how to set up individual recommendation content.
Companies includes #Tencent, #TikTok under #ByteDance, #MeiTuen, #iFeng, #Weibo, #Youku, #Kuaishou, #Baidu, #Sina, #Xiaomi, #WeChat, and #Tmall and #Taobao under #Alibaba.
#Bloomberg report stated that China can have full grasp of every move done by the citizens on the internet, and even all purchase detail and personal information can be seen clearly via the relevant enterprises and applications.
The CAC passed the regulations on algorithm recommendation in March this year, requiring all enterprises to reveal the algorithm used in every application.
Nominally, they can solve the issue of data misuse and enhance cyber security. But once when the authority obtained algorithm technology, they can take further control over web activity and carry out political propaganda.
They even can take "National Security" as an excuse, to obtain citizens' and companies' information.

Vatican 'should not sacrifice Cardinal Zen for China'

German Cardinal Gerhard Muller has expressed dismay over the Vatican’s silence on China’s abuses and an imminent "unfair" trial against Hong Kong’s outspoken Cardinal #JosephZen during the recent consistory.
“Cardinal Zen was absent in Rome because he is under house arrest for raising his voice against Beijing, defending human rights both in Hong Kong and China,” said Cardinal Muller.
During the consistory, Cardinal Muller said that no senior Vatican official or even the pope mentioned Cardinal Zen or his trial.
“There will be an unfair trial next month. Nobody has raised the grave question of our brother Zen.
Cardinal Muller further mentioned that there are obviously “political reasons” for the Holy See that prevent it from taking any initiative in support of Cardinal Zen.

Hongkongers Pay Tribute to Late Queen Elizabeth II at British Consulate
Hong Kong woke up to the news of Queen Elizabeth II's death this morning, bringing an end to her long reign of over 70 years. The British monarch had visited Hong Kong in 1975 and 1986, and residents in this former British colony feel close ties to her even to this day.
Since early morning, citizens have begun bringing flowers to the British Consulate in Admiralty to pay tribute to the Queen. Though many of them might not know the words to God Save the Queen - it was generally not taught in schools in British Hong Kong - the outpouring of tribute shows the reverence in their hearts for the former Queen of Hong Kong.
The British Consulate had added additional opening hours to allow Hongkongers to pay respects:
9 Sep 1200 to 1700
12 - 16 Sep 1000 to 1600

Thank you for giving us
a Hong Kong that
was so beautiful
Don't mention it.
Live well, Ah Kong.
Webcomic artist #HongKongWorker posted this comic as a tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II. She is affectionately called the "Boss Lady" (事頭婆) by Hongkongers who witnessed the city's rise to prosperity and international renown during her reign.
Her passing is mourned by many Hongkongers in the city as well as abroad.
