HKU Dormitory Forces Students to Move Away Overnight to Make Way for Quarantine Floors
Apple Daily received a complaint about lower-level floors of student dormitory at Lady Ho Tung Hall and Starr Hall being forcibly expropriated and used as quarantine floors for students returning from areas affected by the Wuhan pneumonia after the Lunar New Year holiday.
Students currently living on those floors were asked to move out on Jan 28. More than 70 students living in Lady Ho Tung Hall alone were affected.
Source also revealed that representatives of the university dormitories approached school authorities two weeks ago on this matter, and have been waiting for a reply. 15 Chairpersons of the student dormitories of HKU petitioned to Vice Chancellor Zhang Xiang, questioning the idea of having a quarantine floor, as it brings fearful reminders of how Amoy Gardens became a SARS cluster, and how this could happen in Lady Ho Tung Hall and Starr Hall.

About 200 PRC students of the University of Hong Kong are sent to hotels for quarantine, some of them do not strictly comply with the guidelines: Student accommodation staff from the HKU
Editorial note: PRC students’ non-compliance with quarantine guidelines not only increases the transmission of virus at community level, but it also reveals the deficiency of the current quarantine arrangement - nobody ensures actual isolation from the rest of the community.
Hotels are being abused as luxury free holidays. Hotel’s lack of authority and transparency to disclose whether they have high-risk visitors staying at the premises put other visitors at risk. Noted that a Wuhan couple stayed at W-hotel subsequently confirmed as coronavirus infected had transmitted the virus to people they had directed contacts as well as increasing other people who had contacts with them at two other hotels where they had been visited.
(5 Feb) The coronavirus epidemic continues to spread. HKU indicted some days ago that they arranged PRC students who returned to Hong Kong to stay at hotels for “self-quarantine.” However, some students did not strictly comply with the quarantine guidelines and “went around everywhere.”
The student dorms staff pointed out that all students were required to have their body temperature measured at the time of check-in. Staff asked the students which parts of PRC did they come from. They were then centralised for sending to many hotels, including L’Hotel Island South and other hotels in Yau Ma Tei and Kwun Tong, as well as other districts. HKU distributes body temperature measurement sheets to the students. Hotel staff is responsible for recording their body temperature.
The student dorms staff stated that since the coronavirus response plan began in the end of last month, at least 200 students had been sent to different hotels for “self-quarantine”. However, some of them did not strictly follow the quarantine guidelines. “They went around everywhere. Some went to work. Some even invited their friends to play at the hotels.” The staff said relevant students would be disciplined, including the issuance of warning letters and be expelled from dorm.
Ming Pao journalists attempted to enquire L’hotel about this but the hotel group refused to disclose whether HKU had arranged PRC students to stay at their hotel at Southern District. The hotel group only vaguely replied to media’s enquiry that they have ‘visitors’ from Mainland staying at the hotels who were required by the government to quarantine for 14 days. These people are not from Wuhan or other places in Hubei Province.

HKU Crops a Group Photo to Allegedly "Dis-appear" Pro-democracy Activist
Macau casino tycoon Stanley Ho died on May 26 at the age of 98. While the Hong Kong University released a group photo taken during Ho's visit to the university mourning his decease, Edward Leung, the famed imprisoned localist pro-democracy activist who was a then-student, was cut out from the photo.
Many netizens suspected the move was out of fear of the National Security Law, that the Chinese Communist Party may crack down on the university as Leung advocated for an anti-Beijing agenda.

#HKU Student union: Appointment of Chinese Academics as University's Pro-vice-president is a “Black-box Operation”
Along with several pto-democracy lawmakers, President of the Hong Kong University Students' Union, Yip Zi-lam held a press conference on October 26, 2020.
Yip comdemned the appointment of the university’s pro-vice-presidents as a “black-box operation” which lacked transparency to the stakeholders.
Yip pointed out that both candidates were closely connected to China and the arrangement is detrimental to the University’s autonomy.
In fact, one of the candidates is reportedly a Chinese Communist Party member:

The Students' Union called for a petition. As at 8pm on October 26, 2,100 signatures were collected from the University’s staff members, students and alumni.

Now TV News Segment Removed Because News Chief “Personally Thinks it was Inappropriate”
A Now TV news segment was ordered to be removed by News Chief Bill Chan, claiming that he “personally thinks it was inappropriate”. The now-removed clip showed Ip Kin-yuen, a legislative councilor of the education sector expressing concerns about Max Shen, allegedly a Communist Party member, being nominated to be the vice-chancellor at the University of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong Journalists Association (HKJA) issued a statement saying that the removal of news segments is rare, and it is concerning whether the NowTV is self-censoring since the news report touched upon the topic of Max Shen’s status as a Communist Party member.
HKJA urged NowTV Chan to further explain and clarify his measures on handling this news segment in order to allay any public concern.
