Editorial – 21 October, 2014

Did the leader of Hong Kong (supported and backed by Beijing) really say to the whole world that the lives, opinions and choices of people who earn less than US$1,800/month – roughly HK$10,000 – don’t matter.

CY, people who earn less than $10,000 month know how to budget, they appreciate each dollar earned and look for value in every dollar spent – something the government could learn from!

Just because you don’t earn a lot of money doesn’t mean you don’t have brains, common sense, opinions and a right to have a say in how your country is run. And as your own daughter has proved, just because you have money doesn’t stop you being a idiot.

The very reason people are on the streets CY is because you stopped listening to them, stopped looking out for all Hongkongers interests – which is the job of Chief Executive. You have only ever looked out for yourself and listened to those who put money in your pocket – that’s fine for a businessman.

But you’re Chief Executive now and responsible for all HongKongers interests. Perhaps you’ve forgotten who puts the majority of money into your wealthy friends pockets… it comes from those 2 million or so who earn less than $10,000. That’s $20billion a month in spending power, most of which is profit to your greedy tycoon cronies.

The people who power Hong Kong’s economy are the very people you insult with your comments and wish to disenfranchise.

We’re on the streets because we want a Chief Executive who looks out for all Hongkongers interests – not just his own. The existing method of selection hasn’t provided that, so we want change. Quite simply if you thought more about those who earned less than $10,000/month or even $15,000/month with your policies and public spending, then we wouldn’t be on the streets. And those policies have got nothing to do with the basic law – it’s incompetence and greed on the part of you and your tycoon friends that’s destroying Hong Kong.

Police Beating Protestors with Shields and Batons – 18 October, 2014

http://youtu.be/H8WONzx5XSk

If you just want the beating, skip forward to the 2:45.

As the video is shot from behind the protestors there’s little context to what’s going on around, but it appears the police just charge the protestors and assault the protestors with batons and shields with no provocation. The camera person certainly does nothing aggressive or threatening yet is smashed in the face with a shield and hit with a baton

The video was not taken by me, but was sent to me. It was shot on the 18 October, 2014 at 23:38 in Mong Kok
