嶺大要求學生組織與學生會「割蓆」 表明不認同後者立場和理念
On the day of Lingnan University’s opening ceremony this year, members of the Lingnan University Students’ Union and editorial board Association distributed copies of their publication “Ying San Zi Nam” outside the campus. University security confiscated the publication, saying that its contents were inaccurate and that it could not be brought onto campus. The Lingnan University Students’ Union editorial board Association later uploaded an electronic version of “Zi Nam” online. The university subsequently twice asked student organisations to withdraw advertisements published in “Zi Nam” and to write emails stating that they did not agree with the Students’ Union’s positions and ideals.
今年嶺南大學開學禮當日,有嶺大學生會與編委會成員在校外派發其出版的刊物《迎新紙南》,但就被大學保安沒收,稱內容不正確及不准帶進校園。嶺大學生會編委會之後於網上上載《紙南》電子版,但校方兩求度要求各學生組織撤回刊登在《紙南》上的廣告,並要撰寫電郵,表明該組織不認同學生會的立場和理念。

國安時代|一拳揭因匿名失實投訴被逼取消活動 大學教職員等將來無法到書店做分享
Hong Kong independent bookstore One Punch Bookstore, which was singled out for criticism by Sai Wan mouthpiece Wen Wei Po, said in a Facebook post on Thursday (18th) that it had been forced to cancel several events over the past two months because of anonymous and false complaints. “There was one new book for which a sharing session had already been arranged. Its publication was a project funded by an organisation. After a complaint was made to the funder, not only did the event have to be cancelled, but the book could not be supplied to One Punch for sale either,” the bookstore said. One Punch said five categories of people—professionals, university staff, organisations running funded projects, award recipients, and shops or service providers—would be unable to participate in its future sharing events. It stressed: “One Punch will continue throwing punches and see what room there is left to make a difference.” Migratory Birds, a group supporting people in prison and their families, commented: “Thank you, One Punch. Let’s stand together.”
Hans Yeung Wing-yu, the person in charge of overseas online media outlet Education Stinger, which first disclosed at the end of July that One Punch had been “complained about”, and a former manager of the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority, told The Chaser News that targeting the bookstore had become an irreversible calamity in Hong Kong’s cultural collapse. Wen Wei Po launched its “Drive Out Soft Resistance” series in July, after which someone emailed Secretary for Education Christine Choi, various education groups and all schools in Hong Kong, calling for One Punch to be blacklisted. This was already a sign that a storm was brewing, foreshadowing what One Punch described in Thursday’s post. Hans Yeung Wing-yu hoped that One Punch could continue to hold on and persist tenaciously in the gaps.
受西環喉舌《文匯報》點名批評的香港獨立書店「一拳書館」(下稱:一拳)周四(18日)在社媒Facebook發帖揭露,書店過去兩個月發生多次因匿名和失實的投訴而要取消活動,「試過有一本新書本來安排好分享會,出版是某機構受資助的項目。投訴去到資助人,活動不只要取消,連那本書也不可以供貨給一拳發售」。一拳表示,專業人士、大學教職員、受資助項目機構、獲獎人士以及店舖或服務供應商等5類人士,未來無法參加一拳的分享活動,但強調「一拳會繼續揮拳,看看還有甚麼空間發揮。」支援在囚人士及家屬團體「候鳥」在帖子留言:「謝謝一拳,一齊頂住。」
7月底率先揭露一拳「被投訴」的海外網媒《教育刺針》負責人、考評局前經理楊穎宇向《追新聞》表示, 對付書店,已經成為香港文化淪陷不可逆轉的劫數。《文匯報》7月推出〈趕絕軟對抗系列〉,然後有人發電郵予教育局局長蔡若蓮、一眾教育團體以及香港各學校,要求將一拳列入黑名單,這已是山雨欲來風滿樓,預示了一拳周四在帖文所說的。楊穎宇希望一拳能夠繼續撐下去,在狹縫裏頑強不息。

民主思路稱定位非政黨 改名「民思研究所」避誤解
Path of Democracy, established in 2015, was renamed the Minds Policy Research Institute with effect from today. Its convener and Executive Council member Ronny Tong Ka-wah announced yesterday that the name Path of Democracy had led society to misunderstand its positioning and stance, with “many people thinking it was a political party”. He said the renaming clarified that its main focus was policy research, but the institute would not stop its members from standing in the Legislative Council election at the end of the year. Tong will henceforth be known as the institute’s director. He denied deliberately avoiding the word “democracy”, but acknowledged that the term had led people to believe that the organisation had a political inclination.
Tong Ka-wah said the organisation had never “sent people to stand for election” and did not oppose members standing: In the District Council election two years ago, only one member of Path of Democracy obtained sufficient nominations to stand, but was ultimately defeated. Tong revealed in March this year that some members wanted to stand in the Legislative Council election. Asked whether the renaming was related to the difficulty of entering the race in the District Council election, Tong said the think tank’s main work was research. He stressed that it had never “sent people to stand for election”, but would not oppose members standing or mentioning their organisation in connection with their political affiliations. If a member asked him to help canvass votes, he would consider it. In the previous Legislative Council election, Path of Democracy worked with Neo Democrats to promote election-related work. Asked whether it had changed course, Tong reiterated that it had never sent anyone to stand for election, but had passively learned that members were standing, and that it had not received any invitation from a political party to form an alliance.
2015年成立的「民主思路」即日起改名「民思政策研究所」。民主思路召集人、行政會議成員湯家驊昨日宣布,由於「民主思路」名稱令社會誤解其定位及立場,「很多人以為是政黨」,因此「正名」,以示研究政策的工作重心,但不會阻止成員出戰年底立法會選舉,而湯則改稱為研究所長。他否認刻意避開「民主」二字,但承認相關字眼曾令人以為他們有政治傾向。
湯家驊:不曾「派人參選」 不反對成員參選
前年區議會選舉,民主思路僅一人獲足夠提名入閘,最後落選,而湯家驊今年3月曾透露有成員欲出戰立法會選舉。被問到改名與區選難入閘有否關係,湯家驊說智庫主要工作是研究,強調不曾「派人參選」,但不會反對成員參選或在政治聯繫提及其組織,若有成員要求他協助拉票,他會考慮。上屆立法會選舉,民主思路與新思維合作推動選舉工作,被問到是否改變路線,湯重申從未派人參選,而是被動獲知有成員參選,目前也沒有收到任何政黨邀請結盟。

周冠威新戲《自殺通告》釋出預告 未知香港能否上映 盼觀眾「集氣」
Director Chow Kwun-wai, whose previous films include *The Wedding*, *Revolution of Our Times* and *Beyond the Dream*, released the trailer for his latest work, *Suicide Notice*, today. Filmed in Taiwan, the film focuses on student suicide and stars Best Actor Anthony Wong Chau-sang and Taiwanese actors Lin Yu-hsi, among others. It will be released in Taiwan on 7 November. Chow told The Independent Media that he had submitted the film to Hong Kong’s film censorship authority last month but did not yet know whether it could be screened in Hong Kong, and hoped Hong Kong audiences would join in “sending their support.”
*Suicide Notice* began filming on 8 July last year and underwent more than a year of post-production. It was produced by Taiwanese company Bun Ceoi Film Production and distributed by Vie Vision Pictures. The trailer released today includes phrases such as “Accusing the system of killing” and “A fable? A prophecy?” The cast includes Best Actor Anthony Wong Chau-sang and Taiwanese actors Lin Yu-hsi, Lau Ging, Shao Yi-mei and Bai Run-yin. The synopsis says that at an elite private school where academic results come first, an anonymous notice appears before the end-of-year examinations, foretelling that a suicide will take place.
曾執導《1人婚禮》、《時代革命》、《幻愛》等的導演周冠威,最新作品《自殺通告》今釋出預告片。新片於台灣拍攝,以學童自殺為題材,參演的有影帝黃秋生、台灣演員林予晞等,將於11月7日在台灣上映。周冠威向《獨媒》表示,上月已將電影交予電檢處,暫未知道能否在港上映,盼香港觀眾一同「集氣」。
《自殺通告》在去年7月8日開鏡,後期製作超過一年,由台灣公司本萃電影製作、威視電影發行。在今日釋出的電影預告片中,可見「控訴制度殺人」、「寓言?預言?」等字句,參演的包括影帝黃秋生,以及台灣演員林予晞、劉敬、邵奕玫、白潤音等。劇情簡介指,在一所成績至上的高級私立名校,學年終考前出現匿名通告,預告將有自殺事件發生。

外勞檢討|勞權監察研究:逾 2.9 萬外勞抵港 失業大軍增 3.26 萬人 已出現「擠出效應」
Since the government introduced the Enhanced Supplementary Labour Scheme and relaxed application requirements in September 2023, a study by the Hong Kong Labour Rights Monitor has found that more than 29,000 foreign workers have arrived in Hong Kong. Over the past two years, Hong Kong’s unemployment rate rose from 2.9% two years ago to 3.7% in May–July this year, with the number of unemployed people increasing by 32,600. The Labour Rights Monitor said industries that have imported more foreign workers correspond to those with more serious unemployment, including catering, retail and construction, indicating that a “crowding-out effect” has emerged, with foreign workers replacing jobs previously performed by local workers. It called for a public consultation to be relaunched after halting the expansion of the foreign labour importation scheme.
政府自 2023 年 9 月推行補充勞工優化計劃,放寬申請後,香港勞權監察的研究發現,至今有逾 2.9 萬外勞已抵港,這兩年間,香港的失業率,由兩年前的 2.9%,增至今年五至七月的 3.7%,失業大軍增 3.26 萬人。勞權監察分析,輸入外勞較多的行業,跟失業較嚴重的行業吻合,如飲食、零售及建造等行業,反映輸入外勞已出現「擠出效應」,取替了原本由本地工人從事的職位,呼籲停止擴大輸入外勞計劃後,重啟公眾諮詢。

莊梅岩劇作教材去年於網頁「消失」 教育局:適時檢視並更新資料
The page Education Sting also found that teaching materials for renowned playwright Candace Chong’s classic play ‘Staying Behind in the Mortuary’ had already ‘disappeared’ from the Education Bureau’s website last year. In response to an inquiry from InMedia, the Education Bureau said it has continued to review online learning and teaching resources and update the relevant information or content as appropriate, while continuing to produce new learning and teaching resources to meet curriculum development and learning and teaching needs.
專頁《教育刺針》更發現,知名劇作家莊梅岩的經典劇作《留守太平間》的教材資料,早於去年已在教育局網頁「消失」。教育局回覆《獨媒》查詢時稱,一直適時檢視網上學與教資源,並更新資料或內容,同時持續製作新的學與教資源,以配合課程發展及學與教需要。

中大藝墟|聯書院學生會名稱「消失」 場刊「開天窗」 召集人:多了外部壓力
On the final day of CUHK’s start-of-term Arts Fair (12th), members of the Joint College Student Unions Working Group’s preparatory committee and volunteers held flags of the various college student unions and the CUHK Student Union for a group photo in front of a stage backdrop bearing the words “Humanistic Care”, “College Spirit”, “Mountain City” and “Do It Again”, drawing a close to what they described as a “successfully completed” event.
Since the CUHK Student Union disbanded in 2021, the large-scale Arts Fair, which allows different student societies to promote themselves and recruit committee members, has been organised by the working group. As it entered its fourth year, the preparatory committee said it clearly felt that there was “more external pressure” and had at one point discussed “whether to continue organising it”. Working group convener Sin Cheuk-yin said the group had earlier received a “reminder” from the university that the event’s backdrop and programme booklet could not carry the name and introduction of the Joint College Student Unions, or content related to the CUHK Student Union, otherwise the event might not be held as scheduled. Some content in the programme booklet was consequently left blank, and its final page could no longer list the names of the various college student unions as in previous years; instead, it was printed with the words: “Respectfully from a group of students still working to rebuild the CUHK Student Union.”
中大開學活動「藝墟」最後一日(12日),聯書院學生會工作小組籌委和義工,手持各書院學生會和中大學生會的旗幟,在印上「人文關懷」、「書院精神」、「山城」、「再嚟一次」等字句的舞台佈景版前大合照,為「順利完成」的活動劃下句號。
自 2021 年中大學生會解散後,這個讓不同學會宣傳和「招莊」的大型藝墟,一直由小組接手籌辦。踏入第四年,籌委說明顯感到「多了外部的壓力」,更曾一度討論「仲搞唔搞」。小組召集人冼卓言說,早前接獲校方「提醒」,活動佈景板、場刊都不能刊登聯書院學生會的名稱和介紹、以及與中大學生會相關內容,否則或不能如期舉辦;在部分內容要留白「開天窗」的場刊,最後一頁亦未能如以往列出各書院學生會名稱,改印「一群仍在努力重建中大學生會的同學敬上」。

公屋母子收遷出令墮樓亡 雷玉蓮到房署總部抗議促何永賢引咎辭職
A mother and son with mental illnesses living in Tin Yan Estate, Tin Shui Wai, were accused by the Housing Department of failing to truthfully declare their assets when applying for public housing. They were issued a “Notice to Quit” last November and required to vacate their unit. After their appeals failed, they died in falls from a building in April and July this year respectively. The incident has drawn public concern. Social activist Lui Yuk Lin brought white flowers and banners bearing the slogans “The Housing Department takes homes and lives, devoid of humanity and morality”, “The Housing Department reviews staff work as a mentally ill mother and son die tragically”, and “The Appeals Committee is numb and heartless, causing the deaths of the mother and son” to protest at the Housing Authority headquarters this morning. Lui Yuk Lin demanded that the Housing Bureau issue a public apology over the incident and that Secretary for Housing Ho Wing-yin resign in taking responsibility. Security staff ultimately received the petition on behalf of the Housing Authority.

懲教署終駁斥CFHK 監獄報告 斥指控失實無政治犯 點名許穎婷請求制裁
Hong Kong’s Correctional Services Department responded to The Points on Thursday (11th), strongly rejecting a prison conditions research report published by the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong Foundation (CFHK) on Monday (8th). It said the report was entirely baseless and purely malicious smearing, reiterated that Hong Kong has no “political prisoners”, and named Hui Wing-ting, CFHK’s policy and advocacy officer, in connection with a request for sanctions against correctional officers. Hui Wing-ting again told The Points that serious inhumane problems exist in Hong Kong’s prison system.

避暑中心|綠色和平巡查全港 27 中心 逾八成不合格 近兩成中心冇水冇冷氣
Greenpeace conducted on-site inspections of all cooling centres across Hong Kong from 25 July to 18 August. The survey found that over 80% of the 27 cooling centres failed to meet requirements: 33.3% did not provide air-conditioning and 22.2% did not provide water dispensers. The Home Affairs Department said that the public areas of daytime cooling centres were covered by air-conditioning, accounting for about 85% overall, and said some of the survey data were "inconsistent with the facts".
Greenpeace highlighted the issue of cooling centres last month and published the "Survey on the Use of Temporary Cooling Centres". At the time, the daytime facilities at Tsz Wan Shan (South) Community Centre did not have air-conditioning. Reporters from The Collective inspected the centre again today (12th) and found that air-conditioning had been installed. The Home Affairs Department said it would review and "optimise" the services from time to time. At Tsz Wan Shan (South) Community Centre, for example, heat-insulating film had recently been installed on the glass windows and air conditioners had been added.
綠色和平於 7 月 25 日至 8 月 18 日實地考察全港所有避暑中心,調查結果顯示 27 間避暑中心八成不合格,例如 33.3% 避暑中心沒提供冷氣、22.2% 避暑中心沒有提供水機。民政事務總署指,日間避暑中心的「公用地方」均有「空調」覆蓋,約佔整體85%,指調查部分數據「與事實不符」。
綠色和平上月已關注避暑中心問題,發佈《臨時避暑中心使用問卷調查》,當時慈雲山(南區)社區中心的日間設施並沒冷氣,《集誌社》記者今(12 日)再視察,發現已加裝冷氣。民政署指,會不時檢視「優化」服務,如慈雲山(南區)社區中心,最近已在玻璃窗加裝隔熱膜、冷氣機。
