Simon Shen on IPCC Effectiveness and Credibility
(11 Nov)
1. In Sep 2019, IPCC said "International Expert Panel will first examine the restructuring of the task force and the work of identifying the facts. It will focus on the work in the 2nd and 3rd phrases, which are evaluating of the policing measures and providing recommendations. "
Cheung Wah-fung, deputy Chairman of IPCC, said" the 5 board members of International Expert Panel are reputable, experienced and credible, they can improve the work and goodwill. "
2. Nov-2019, Denis O'Connor, Chairman of the Panel, criticised that IPCC was lacking of capacity and independent investigative capability. It must increase its resources and manpower to strengthen its power to obtain evidence for comprehensive investigation.
And Clifford Stott denounced that IPCC lacked investigation authority which matches the scale of the anti-elab protests in order to meet with the international standards and expectations in a society value freedom and rights.
3. Nov-2019, Cheung Wah-fung said "the Overseas Expert Panel may not fully understand the situation in HK, the procedure in investigation or obtaining evidence from police is not difficult"
According to his logic, there are two conclusions
4a. IPCC: When the Panel speaks for freedom and the truth, it lacks experience and credibility
4b. IPCC: When the Panel covers up for police, it understands the situation in HK well

Rev. Yuen: Family Will Donate Chow's Organs
(10Nov) HKUST student Alex Chow passed away last Sunday due to his fall at the Sheung Tak Estate parking lot, Tseung Kwan O. On 10/11, members of the church hosted a memorial and prayer meeting for Chow at Chater Garden, Central. Rev. Yuen Tin-Yau quoted sources in his speech and stated that Chow's family will donate his organs.
Bishop Joseph Ha Chi-shing, Auxiliary Bishop of Hong Kong, described Chow's death as "unclear and unsettled" and is unacceptable for the conscientious in a civilized society. He emphasized that a Coroner's Court must be opened for the case for "justice and truth" to prevail.
"(Chow's) death is a result of this apathetic regime, and one can say that he was directly pushed to his death by the regime." Rev. Yuen stated that Chow's parents has agreed to donate Chow's organs to "spread love across the world".
Rev. Chu Yiu-ming called for citizens to walk in place of Chow until all 5 demands are met. After he exclaimed, "Here, we swear to inherit the resistance and never back down!", participants of the assembly immediately responded with "Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Time!" and "Hongkongers, Resist!".
