Simplified Chinese Slogans and #PLA Occupy Hong Kong's Highest Peak: “Listen to CCP and Follow CCP's Order"
Tai Mo Shun, which is the highest mountain in Hong Kong, is a hiking attraction for many people. It is where one can view Miscathus in Autumn and frost in Winter.
Lately, civilians found slogans written in Simplified Chinese characters, a script which is used in China but not Hong Kong, on the wall of the Radar Station on Tai Mo Shan. The discovery has surprised many Hongkongers.
These China-style slogans in red read "Listen to the CCP, Follow the CCP” and “Strict Law and Discipline, Correct Social Atmosphere”. Another simplified Chinese slogans, “loyalty and Perseverance” written in yellow was found on kerbs. A China flag in a map form was even painted on the hillside, which is a typical characteristic found in state-owned buildings in China.

A warning sign outside the steel gate of the radar station labels it as a “restricted area”. It warns: “No entry without permission in this restricted area”, and “No photo and painting on any building in this restricted area”.
On Jan 8, 2021, a journalist sighted a man in a camouflage-style military uniform walking from a dome-shaped building to another building on the mountain. A car with a license plate “ZG”, which stands for People’s Liberation Army (#PLA) was also sighted. The administrator let the vehicle come in and go up to the mountain.
In 2011, the Hong Kong government had granted 100k sq. ft land in Tai Mo Shan to the Chinese PLA.

Local band vocal expresses relief as he was released upon acquittal on possession of #LaserPen
Ben Chan, vocal singer of a local band Boyz Reborn was accused of possession of tools for illegal use as he was carrying a laser pen on the day of a citywide anti-mask ban protest on 6 October 2019.
Ben appeared at the court on Friday, Jan 8, 2021 and was acquitted of the count. Band members, their manager, and Chan’s girlfriend, former Demosistō member Ho Ka-yau, hugged Ben as he was released upon acquittal.
Ben expressed his relief and said he was stressed and worried that having to be in and out of the court might affect his future plans in music and his studies. He was also worried about the possibility of being absent from the upcoming band concert and bringing more work to the band members if he was found guilty.
Ben was thankful to the court’s fair judgement, and reminded Hong Kongers to keep other comrades in mind. “There are still much unfairness in Hong Kong. A lot of comrades are still facing lawsuits, while some are already in jail. I hope Hong Kongers would keep paying close attention to them and never give up on the fight for freedom”
