越界輔導員｜曾因法律程序遮名 受害人窮追 心理學會公布失德會員 Ho Yuen Chee 名字
The Collective previously reported that, after a counsellor was found by the Hong Kong Psychological Society to have breached its professional code and was expelled from membership, a loophole in the society’s privacy policy meant her identity was not disclosed. She subsequently took up a counselling position at Saint Francis University. The society resolved last month to publish all cases involving members who had breached its rules, but suspended publication of details in the above case after receiving legal documents. The reporter recently checked the society’s website and found that the case’s name, breaches and disciplinary details had been published. An English-only document identified the expelled counsellor as Ho Yuen Chee, who was involved in breaching multiple professional codes, including failing to maintain clear boundaries and avoid multiple relationships. The Hong Kong Psychological Society confirmed that, in accordance with its procedures, it completed the publication on its website of all disciplinary actions against members on 25 April.
《集誌社》早前報道，一名輔導員，被香港心理學會裁定違反專業守則、開除會籍後，學會因私隱政策漏洞未公布其身份，她成功轉職到聖方濟各大學任輔導員。學會上月決議公開所有違規會員個案，但就上述個案因接獲法律文件，須暫緩公布細節。記者近日翻查學會網站，發現該個案的姓名、違規和紀律處分詳情已被公開。只有英文版的文件顯示，被除名輔導員為「Ho Yuen Chee」，她涉違反多項專業守則，包括未能保持清晰界線及避免建立多重關係。香港心理學會確認，已依據該會程序，在 4 月 25 日於網頁完成公佈所有對會員的紀律行動。

加拿大大選｜鄭敬基宣布落敗 自由黨華裔候選人當選 獲現任讓路出戰
In Canada’s parliamentary election, the latest projections by local media indicate that the governing Liberal Party will retain power and form the next government. Results are being reported in constituencies across the country. In Toronto Don Valley North, former entertainer Joseph Tay King Kei, who is wanted by Hong Kong’s National Security Department with a bounty on his head, ran for the opposition Conservative Party. The latest results showed him trailing Liberal candidate Maggie Chi by more than 4,000 votes, and Joseph Tay King Kei has announced his defeat on social media. Chi, who won the election, thanked voters for their support.
On X, Joseph Tay King Kei said he was sincerely grateful for the Conservative Party’s trust, describing his candidacy as “one of the greatest honours of my life”. He said he would continue to uphold Canada’s core values of freedom, respect and community spirit, and continue working in his position to “safeguard a pure, principled community”. “We will rise again with more determined steps,” he said.
加拿大國會選舉，當地傳媒最新推算執政自由黨將會保住地位，組建新一屆政府。各選區陸續有投票結果，其中被香港國安處懸紅通緝的前藝人鄭敬基，代表在野保守黨出選多倫多 Don Valley North 選區，最新結果顯示他的得票落後自由黨候選人遲月（Maggie Chi）逾 4,000 票，鄭敬基已經在社交平台宣布敗選。至於勝選的遲月答謝選民支持。
鄭敬基在 X 表示，衷心感謝保守黨對他的信任，他視今次參選是「一生中最大的榮耀之一」。他表示，將繼續堅守加拿大的核心價值，自由、尊重與社群精神，在自己的崗位上繼續努力，「守護一個純真、有原則的社區」，「我們會以更堅定的步伐再起來」。

工權會政總請願 促4.28定為工殤紀念日
The Industrial Accident Victims’ Rights Association petitioned outside Government Headquarters this morning, urging the authorities to designate 28 April as Workers’ Memorial Day and erect a workers’ memorial in a prominent urban location. The association’s secretary-general, Sin Man Siu, criticised the government for referring to 28 April as “World Day for Safety and Health at Work”, saying they did not agree because “safety and health can be discussed every day”. They reiterated that the importance of 28 April lies in mourning workers who have died or been injured and learning profound lessons from workers’ deaths. “How many families have been affected? We hope the government will take the lead in improving occupational safety.”
工業傷亡權益會今早到政府總部外請願，要求當局將4.28定為工殤紀念日，及在市區當眼處豎立工殤紀念碑。工權會總幹事蕭倩文批評，政府一直將4月28日稱為「世界工作安全及健康日」，但表明不認同，指「講安全講健康每日都可以講」，重申4.28的重要性是悼念工殤，並從工人死亡吸取深刻教訓，「幾多家庭受影響，希望政府帶頭做返好職業安全」。

朱銘雕塑｜文化中心外黃雨衣「排隊」雕塑 康文署完成修復不原址重置 改放「喜洋洋」
Ju Ming’s sculpture “Living World Series — Queue”, which has been displayed in the Hong Kong Cultural Centre’s open-air piazza in Tsim Sha Tsui since 2017, has attracted controversy in recent years because two of the sculptures wear yellow raincoats, including being cordoned off with metal barriers. Last year, the Leisure and Cultural Services Department put up hoardings, saying the sculptures posed structural safety risks and needed repairs. The department said in response to an enquiry that “Living World Series — Queue” had been repaired, but would not be reinstalled at its original location after being on display for many years. It will instead be replaced by the National Games mascots “Xiyangyang” and “Lerongrong”.
自 2017 年已在尖沙咀文化中心露天廣場展出的朱銘《人間系列 — 排隊》雕塑，因其中兩個雕塑身穿黃雨衣，近年曾出現被鐵馬圍封等風波，至去年康文署封上圍板，指雕塑結構有安全隱患，需要復修。康文署回覆查詢指，《人間系列 — 排隊》已完成修復，但已展出多年，不會原址重置，會改放全運會吉祥物「喜洋洋」及「樂融融」。

人權報告顯示港府趨向用「隱性鎮壓」 難引起國際社會即時反應
The latest Hong Kong Human Rights Report 2024, published by the Hong Kong Human Rights Information Centre, says that human rights and freedoms in Hong Kong have continued to deteriorate as the national security system is further consolidated. The Hong Kong government has used various means, including legal, administrative, technological and cultural measures, to establish a framework for institutional suppression, such as regulation of venues and licensing. The Centre says this “covert” form of repression is difficult for the international community to detect and respond to immediately. Its spokesperson said the report was produced to “make the deterioration of human rights in Hong Kong traceable, rather than allowing the rollback of human rights to take place quietly in the darkness”.
Five years after the Hong Kong National Security Law came into force, the government has continued to claim publicly that stability has returned to society. However, the 45-page Hong Kong Human Rights Report 2024, published by the Hong Kong Human Rights Information Centre on Monday (28th), says that residents are in fact facing ongoing censorship and white terror. The report identifies six trends in Hong Kong’s human rights situation: further expansion of the national security system; damage to judicial independence and tighter legal aid restrictions; intensified surveillance and expanded cross-border repression; administrative suppression and “lawfare” becoming the norm; the disappearance of peaceful assemblies and the dismantling of civic participation; and restrictions on cultural and educational freedoms, with patriotic education permeating schools.
Regarding administrative suppression, the report says the authorities have adopted measures that appear lawful but are in practice selectively enforced, including tax audits and venue and licensing regulations, to suppress press freedom and civil society activities without resorting to overt force or arrests. It says this kind of “covert repression” is unlikely to prompt an immediate response from the international community, but effectively enables the government to harass and pressure targeted groups while demonstrating a chilling effect to society as a whole.
香港人權資訊中心最新發表的《香港人權報告2024》顯示，香港在國安體制持續鞏固下，人權和自由狀況持續惡化。港府透過法律、行政、科技與文化等多種手段，建立制度性打壓的架構，如從場地及發牌規管入手。這種「隱性的」打壓方式難被國際發現，並引起即時反應。中心發言人強調，製作報告是希望「讓香港人權的惡化有跡可尋，不願人權倒退在黑暗中悄然發生」。
《港區國安法》生效5年以來，港府一直對外宣稱社會已回復穩定，但周一（28日）由香港人權資訊中心發表的45頁《香港人權報告2024》指出，實際上市民正面對持續的審查與白色恐怖。報告列出香港人權狀況的6項趨勢，包括國安體制進一步擴權；司法獨立受損與法律援助收緊；監控升級與跨境打壓擴展；行政打壓與「法律戰」成為常態；和平集會消失，公民參與遭到瓦解；及文化與教育自由受限，愛國教育滲透校園。
在行政打壓方面，報告指當局採取表面合法、實質是選擇性執行的手段，如稅務審查、場地及發牌規管等，用以打壓新聞自由及民間活動，而無須動用明顯武力或逮捕。報告指這類「隱性鎮壓」不易引起國際社會即時反應，卻有效讓政府對目標群體進行騷擾及施壓，並向整體社會展示寒蟬效應。

康文署：文化中心朱銘雕塑已展出多年 不會重置
Last June, the sculpture *Living World Series—Queuing*, created by renowned Taiwanese sculptor Ju Ming and displayed in the open-air piazza of the Hong Kong Cultural Centre, was suddenly cordoned off. The sculpture consists of 10 human figures, two of whom wear yellow raincoats. A yellow-clad figure on the hoarding was also covered by a grey notice, sparking controversy. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department said at the time that the sculpture had a structural safety concern and required repair and an assessment of the options. Nearly a year later, the hoarding has been removed and the sculpture is no longer there. In a reply to InMedia, the department said the repair work had been completed, but that, given the sculpture had been on display for years since 2017, it would not be reinstalled at its original site. From April 26, the piazza was changed to accommodate the National Games mascots “Joyful Yangyang” and “Cheerful Rongrong”.
In 2014, the Hong Kong Arts Promotion Office included Ju Ming’s sculpture *Living World Series—Queuing* in its collection, and displayed it outside the Hong Kong Cultural Centre in 2017. The work is a set of 10 bronze castings, with figures of different forms; some wear brightly coloured clothing and are paired with different accessories. Their poses resemble people queuing to wait to enter the venue for a visit.
去年六月，位於香港文化中心露天廣場展出，由台灣著名雕塑家朱銘創作的雕塑《人間系列──排隊》突然被圍封。由於該雕塑有10個人形，其中兩個穿黃色雨衣，而圍板上的黃衣人，亦被灰色告示遮蓋，引起爭議，當時康文署稱雕塑結構出現安全隱患，需時修復及評估方案。事隔近一年，圍板已被拆去，雕塑已不復存在。康文署回覆《獨媒》表示，修復工作已完成，惟稱考慮到該雕塑自2017年起已展出多年，故不會原址重置。廣場位置於4月26日起改為設置全運會吉祥物「喜洋洋」及「樂融融」。
香港藝術推廣辦事處在2014年將朱銘創作的雕塑作品《人間系列──排隊》納入收藏，2017年將作品在香港文化中心外展出。作品為一組10件的青銅鑄模，人物造型各異，部分人穿著鮮豔服裝，並配搭不同配件，形態猶如排隊等待進入館內參觀。

【五一勞動節】女工會政總請願 胡美蓮指行動未受壓
With May Day approaching, groups in Hong Kong had in previous years marched to the Central Government Offices to express their demands, but such marches have not taken place since 2020. The Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions also announced recently that it would continue to suspend its march. Four days before Labour Day, the Hong Kong Women's Workers Association submitted a letter of views to the Central Government Offices today (April 27), calling on the Secretary for Labour and Welfare to engage in dialogue with grassroots women workers. A Labour and Welfare Bureau representative received the letter, while several police officers maintained order at the scene.
In March 2023, the Women's Workers Association planned to hold a march on International Women's Day and had obtained a Letter of No Objection, but abruptly cancelled it one day before the march. Police said the organisers had "weighed the pros and cons". On this year's International Women's Day, the association had also originally planned to petition at the Central Government Offices, but changed the event at the last minute to its office. Asked by InMediaHK whether the association had been "contacted" before today's action, and whether it had been told not to hold an event on May Day itself, the association's secretary-general Wu Mei-lin said: "There was absolutely none [pressure] this time." Based on past experience, she also said that it was not necessarily necessary to hold an event on the day itself. She reiterated that the key was to accommodate the schedules of women workers who wanted to express their views: "It's not about choosing one particular day; the key is whether the people who want to come can fit it into their schedules."
「五一」勞動節將至，香港過往每年均有團體遊行至政總表達訴求，惟2020年後遊行不再，工聯會日前亦宣布繼續停辦遊行。距離勞動節還有四日，香港婦女勞工協會今日（4月27日）到政總遞交意見書，促勞工及福利局局長與基層婦女勞工對話，勞福局代表接信，現場有數名警員維持秩序。
2023年3月，女工會曾擬舉辦三八婦女節遊行，並獲不反對通知書，不過在遊行前一日突取消，警方稱主辦方已「平衡利弊」。今年三八婦女節，女工會亦原訂到政總請願，但臨時改回會址舉行。《獨媒》問到今次行動前有否被「關心」，以及提示不可於五一勞動節正日辦活動。女工會總幹事胡美蓮稱「今次完全冇（受到壓力）」，過往經驗亦認為不一定需於正日舉行。她重申關鍵在於遷就想表達心聲的女工時間，「唔係要邊日定邊日，個關鍵就係想嚟嘅人係咪都就到時間。」

Channel C 欠薪｜連續兩天沒內容更新 近 30 員工被拖欠 $66 萬薪金
The employer of online media outlet Channel C was earlier arrested over alleged involvement in fraud and “100% guaranteed preferential loans”. It is understood that about 29 editorial staff at Channel C are owed approximately HK$660,000 in basic salaries and other payments, and that the website has suspended updates since Wednesday (the 23rd). An informed source said the original employer had allegedly been unable to repay the money, prompting a new investor to initiate a takeover process. Channel C’s monthly salary expenditure is about HK$470,000, but the new investor is currently willing to pay only HK$100,000 per month to keep Channel C operating. Cheng Ka-yu, chairperson of the Hong Kong Journalists Association, said the association had received enquiries from Channel C employees about the wage arrears and what protection was available.

內地交流中學生遭拍裸片 14歲男被捕
During a four-day, three-night mainland exchange trip organised by a secondary school in Kwai Chung last March, a 13-year-old Form Two student was secretly filmed fully naked by a classmate while showering in a hotel in Shantou. The video was circulated at the school. The boy’s parents subsequently reported the case to police, who arrested a 14-year-old boy allegedly involved. However, the nude images have recently been circulated on social media. The boy’s parents reported the matter to police again a few days ago, hoping for assistance in having them taken down. The Education Bureau confirmed the secret filming incident and said it was very concerned. It said that, after learning of the matter, it immediately contacted the school to make enquiries.
葵涌一間中學去年3月舉辦的4日3夜內地交流團，其間一名13歲中二男生在汕頭入住的酒店內，洗澡時遭同學偷拍全裸短片，並在校內流傳。該男生家長事後報警，警方拘捕一名涉事14歲男童。不過，涉事裸照近日又在社交媒體上流傳，男生家長日前遂再向警方報案，希望協助下架。教育局回覆確認偷拍事件，並十分關注，得悉後已立即向有關學校了解。
