翠林邨邨民就「假授權」請願 促加快調查
At a special owners’ meeting at Choi Lam Estate in Tseung Kwan O on 2 November, more than 1,000 “fake authorisations” were suspected to have appeared. Residents had earlier reported the matter to the police, but the owners’ corporation decided that the authorisations would remain valid at the adjourned meeting on 21 December. More than 10 residents again went to Tseung Kwan O Police Station today to submit evidence and a petition letter. They also held signs and chanted slogans outside the station, urging the police to speed up the investigation.
將軍澳翠林邨11月2日的特別業主大會,疑出現過千「假授權」,居民早前已報警,惟法團決定在12月21日的續會中,該些授權繼續有效。10多名邨民今日再到將軍澳警署遞交證據及請願信,並在警署外舉標語及叫口號,促警方加快調查。

翠林邨業主大會涉逾千假授權 近20名先人被簽名
The dispute over major repairs at Tsui Lam Estate in Tseung Kwan O continues. Early last month, the owners’ corporation insisted on holding a meeting at Sai Kung Town Hall despite the Observatory’s forecast that the No. 8 storm signal would be hoisted, and only ended the meeting when the signal was officially hoisted. The meeting also allegedly involved purported and fake authorisations. The concern group “Chui Ka” held a press conference on the 10th, saying the meeting involved more than 1,000 cases of fake authorisation and that signatures had been made in the names of nearly 20 deceased people. One widow criticised the practice, saying, “How can you harass a dead person like this? It is a great insult to the deceased!”
將軍澳翠林邨因大維修引起的爭議持續,法團上月初在天文台預告懸掛八號風球下,堅持於西貢大會堂開會,至正式掛波方終止會議,大會更疑現「被授權」及假授權。關注組「翠家」10日召開記者會,指大會涉逾千宗假授權,更有近20名「先人」被簽名,有遺孀轟「咁嚟騷擾一個死人?對死者係好大嘅侮辱!」

中大生校內派白紙製火炬 籲關注內地人權
Today is International Human Rights Day. Four CUHK students distributed torches rolled from white paper at the former site of the Goddess of Democracy statue at The Chinese University of Hong Kong this evening, and walked around various parts of the campus carrying publicity materials bearing the words “International Human Rights Day”. They said several friends from mainland China had recently taken part in white-paper protests and had been out of contact for more than a week after being arrested by national security authorities. They hoped the action would promote human rights and urge the authorities to release them as soon as possible.
今日為「國際人權日」,有四名中大生晚上在中大民主女神像原址,派發以白紙捲成的火炬,並手持寫有「國際人權日」的文宣遊走校園多處。他們指,有多名內地朋友近日參與白紙示威,被國安拘捕後失聯逾一星期,望藉行動宣揚人權,促當局盡快放人。

屯門兆麟苑法團換屆 開明派「麟舍」全軍覆沒
Siu Lun Court in Tuen Mun had not convened an owners’ general meeting for three years or held an owners’ corporation election for four years since the end of 2019. The estate held its annual general meeting yesterday (4 December) at Wu Shan Road Community Hall, electing members of a new committee. All candidates from “Lun House”, a liberal-faction concern group, were defeated. Of the 13 elected committee members, six were re-elected. Most had not provided election platforms, while one provided no information other than their name. Members of “Lun House” told InMedia that the result was expected, but said they did not understand why “a blank sheet of paper is even better than our platforms”.
屯門兆麟苑自2019年末至今3年未開業主大會、4年未換法團。屋苑昨日(12月4日)在湖山路社區會堂舉行周年大會,選出新一屆委員會成員。開明派關注組「麟舍」參選人全軍覆沒,當選的13名委員中6人為連任,大部分未有提供政綱,當中一人更除姓名外沒有提供任何資料。「麟舍」成員向《獨媒》表示結果屬意料之中,亦不解為何「一張白紙仲好過我啲政綱?」

公民黨斷莊 最快2月開大會表決清盤
The nomination period for the Civic Party’s executive committee election ended yesterday. Civic Party chairman Alan Leong said no valid nomination forms had been received, “meaning that the succession will come to an end”. Under the party’s constitution, it must form an interim executive committee to exercise the executive committee’s powers over the coming year, including deciding whether to wind up the party. Following a resolution at a special general meeting, the Civic Party, founded in 2006, will formally enter the winding-up process. Leong said plainly that his generation had completed its mission.
公民黨執委會換屆改選提名期昨日屆滿,公民黨主席梁家傑稱無收到有效提名表格,「意味將會斷莊」,按照黨章程序,該黨需成立臨時執委會,在未來一年內行使執委會權力,包括決定清盤,經過特別會員大會決議後,2006年創黨的公民黨,將正式進入清盤程序。梁家傑明言,他這一代已完成任務

海都樓業主到民政總署請願 促要求法團公開大維修文件
The former owners’ corporation of Hoi To House in Sai Wan refused to use the Urban Renewal Authority’s “Smart Tender” scheme to invite tenders for major repair works costing more than $30 million. Some owners questioned whether the works contract was signed by the then-chairman and whether a management committee meeting was held at the location stated in the meeting notice. They petitioned outside the Home Affairs Department office today (28th) together with Winfield Chong Wing-fai, convenor of the Alliance Against Bid-rigging. Winfield Chong Wing-fai questioned whether the owners’ corporation had breached the Building Management Ordinance, urged the department to intervene and called on the corporation to disclose the documents.

Yesterday, Chinese students at local universities responded to the actions. At the University of Hong Kong, some people held flowers and posters on campus, prompting the university to call the police.

南區嘉隆苑四年來首改選 開明派獲八成業主踢走舊法團
Ka Lung Court in the Southern District, near Wah Fu Estate, had not held an election since its owners’ corporation took office in 2018, citing the “pandemic”. An owners’ meeting was finally held yesterday (November 23) after residents submitted a requisition signed by 5% of the owners. More than 80% of the votes passed a motion to replace the owners’ corporation, while all 15 candidates from the reform camp were elected to the management committee. Newly elected chairman Fung Sai-yin said he hoped owners of other housing estates would also step forward to care about estate affairs: “There is no need to fear the old forces; as long as we unite, there will be change.”

西環海都樓法團閉門重選主席 半百業主拉橫額抗議
The old owners’ corporation of Hoi Dou Lau in Sai Wan proposed major repair works costing more than $30 million without using the Urban Renewal Authority’s “TenderSure” scheme, and had not held an election for six years. The Lands Tribunal ordered a re-election, but the old corporation retained seven of the nine seats and passed a motion to proceed with the major repairs. A worship ceremony this month was, however, blocked by residents. The chairman, who belonged to the new faction, suddenly resigned recently. The corporation re-elected a committee member and a chairman yesterday (November 22). More than 50 owners requested to attend but were refused entry. A large number of police officers arrived and shone the strong beams of their flashlights at the owners. The meeting ultimately “successfully” re-elected a chairman.
