Stand With #Yuli Rally
Citizens expressed their support to Yuli, an Indonesian domestic helper and writer in a rally at Edinburgh Place.
In a long-distance phone call, Yuli told the participants in Cantonese that she went to see a doctor because she knew many people were worried about her. Her health condition had now improved.
Yuli pointed out that being detained by the Hong Kong authorities in the Castle Peak Immigration Center (CIC) was harder than being jailed. In the prison, at least she could know the date of release, but she had no idea when she would be free again during her detention in CIC.
During her detention, the Hong Kong Immigration Department did not arrange a female doctor to check her body. It had disturbed her as a Muslim.
Yuli sent a message to all Hong Kong people hoping they could also care about the human rights of her fellow citizens, other domestic helpers and other detainees. Lastly, she chanted "Hongkongers, fight on!" with the rally participants.

Correctional Services Department Censors Books and Pictures Showing "Liberate Hong Kong" Flag
Former lawmaker Bottle Shiu Ka-chun is known for his advocacy in inmates' rights. In his Facebook post on December 4, 2020, Shiu said that Hong Kong Correctional Services demanded to have several pages of three books, nanely "Yuen Long Dark Night", "Under the Sky", and "Hongkonger 2.0" torn away before they could be admitted into the prison. Shiu described the three books as "the latest books banned by the Correctional Services".
The pages to be removed include the descriptions about the gangsters' participation in Yuen Long 721 attack, the police deployment that night, and pictures of "Liberate Hong Kong" flag. Shiu criticized the Department for claiming that there is no censor list, but the inmates' right to read is restricted.
He described the book censorship in the Correctional Services as arbitrary and willful: "If (the Correctional Services) wants to tear away the pages, you can only choose not to bring the books in".

China-born, Pro-Beijing financiers launch new Bauhinia Party in Hong Kong in a bid to "reform" the Opposition-less Legislature
After the disqualification and the mass resignation of the democrats in Hong Kong, the pro-Beijing Camp is expected to further monopolize the Legislative Council's chairs.
Li Shan, a China-born member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the director of the Credit Suisse Group, together with the chairman of China Broadcasting Holdings, Huang Qiuzhi, and the others, launched a new political party "Bauhinia Party" in Hong Kong in May 2020.
The party plans to recruit 250,000 party members with the goal of supporting "one country, two systems" and "a high degree of autonomy", and improving the relationship between Beijing and the SAR government.
The founder Li Shan showed strong support to the implementation of the National Security Law in Hong Kong, and even demanded another transitional system to prosecute and review cases involving breaches of #NationalSecurityLaw, and to complete the legislation of #Article23 of the Basic Law in the future.
He claimed that the newly established political party is a "determined defender" of the principle of "one country, two systems".
