國際不再恐同日 團體銅鑼灣辦性別多元活動
Today (May 17) is the International Day Against Homophobia. Last year, Hong Kong LGBTQ organisation “Gay Harmony” held a Pride Month market at iSQUARE, but the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department said it had not obtained a temporary public place licence or a place of public entertainment licence, and the event was ultimately cancelled. A year later, “Gay Harmony” today joined forces with several gender diversity organisations to set up stalls and exhibitions around East Point Road and George Street in Causeway Bay, hoping to raise public awareness of gender diversity issues. Francis, the founder of “Gay Harmony”, said the group had applied to and received approval from the Lands Department for this event. He said last year’s cancellation was “also because we ourselves were not sensitive enough”. The group will hold an event at The Mills in Tsuen Wan in June and is applying to the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department for a licence.
今日(5月17日)是國際不再恐同日,去年香港同志組織「大同」(Gay Harmony)iSQUARE舉辦同志驕傲月市集,惟食環署指未獲臨時公眾場所牌或娛樂場所牌照,最終活動取消告吹。事隔一年,「大同」今日聯同多個性別多元組織,在銅鑼灣東角道及紀利佐治街一帶設攤位及展覽,冀大眾關注性別多元議題。「大同」創辦人Francis表示,今次活動向地政總署申請並獲批,去年活動遭取消「都係衰自己唔夠敏感」,他們6月會到荃灣南豐紗廠舉辦活動,正向食環署申請牌照。

娛樂牌風波|同志驕傲月市集轉工廈舉行 入場需登記 參加者:好似變返得自己人知
Local LGBT organisation Big Love Alliance had originally planned to hold a three-day Pride Month market from yesterday (29 June), spanning 1 July. However, the event was halted after the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department notified the organisers that they did not hold an entertainment establishment licence. The organisers changed plans and moved the event today (30 June) to an industrial building in San Po Kong, where entry requires prior registration. The smaller event includes thematic sharing sessions and performances.
After the event was moved from a shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui to an industrial building, Big Love Alliance founder Francis said he found the venue through a friend’s introduction. Taking into account the venue, the availability of guests for the thematic sharing sessions and the schedules of the performing groups, they ultimately decided to hold the event on the final day of Pride Month.
本地同志組織「大同」原訂昨(29日)起,舉辦一連三日、橫跨 7.1 的「同志驕傲月市集」,然而,活動因臨時被食環通知未持有娛樂場所牌照需煞停。主辦方變陣,今(30日)移師在新蒲崗一工業大廈,舉辦需預先登記才能進場的小型活動,涵蓋專題分享及表演等。
活動從尖沙咀商場轉陣至工廈,「大同」創辦人Francis 表示,經好友介紹後覓得場地,而考慮到場地、專題分享嘉賓、表演團體檔期,最終決定在「同志驕傲月」最後一日舉辦活動。

同志驕傲月|婚策公司招募 10 對性小眾情侶 贊助辦婚禮 由美國監禮人視像證婚
June is Pride Month each year. A wedding planning company is collaborating with a Hong Kong hotel and organisations to sponsor weddings for 10 couples of different sexual orientations or transgender couples. Hong Kong and US marriage celebrants will be connected live for a mass marriage registration ceremony and weddings on June 25. The organisers said the event aims to raise public awareness of and support for the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. The selected couples need only pay a symbolic fee of HK$2 to receive a legally valid overseas marriage registration service. The organisers said that if more than 10 couples apply, priority will be given to older couples and people with financial needs, in the hope that everyone, regardless of wealth or age, can enjoy the protection of marriage.
每年 6 月為同志驕傲月 Pride Month,有婚禮策劃公司與本港酒店及機構合作,贊助 10 對不同性傾向或跨性別情侶,在香港與美國婚姻監禮人實時連線,在 6 月 25 日進行集體婚姻登記及舉行婚禮。主辦方指,是次活動希望喚起社會大眾對 LGBTQ+ 社群權益的關注和支持,獲選中的情侶只需支付港幣 2 元的象徵式收費,便可獲得海外合法婚姻登記服務。主辦方表示,如超過 10 對情侶報名,將會優先考慮較年長的情侶、有經濟需要的人士,以實現不論貧富、不論年紀,均能受婚姻所保障。

Pink Dot與區選撞期 警方以「警力不足」要求提早完結
After a five-year gap, Hong Kong’s major LGBTQ carnival, “Pink Dot HK – A Point of Pink”, returned outdoors today. Event representative Siu Fai (Prof) Leung said police, citing insufficient manpower, requested two days before the event that it end early. They also asked the organisers to inspect participants’ bags and prohibit alcohol from being brought in, while no more than 3,500 people could be inside the venue: “On election day, [police manpower] is spread very thinly across the districts. They are worried there won’t be enough police manpower and that disorderly incidents could occur.”
相隔 5 年,香港大型同志嘉年華「Pink Dot HK 一點粉紅」今日重返户外舉行。大會代表梁兆輝透露,警方在活動舉行前兩日以警力不足為由,要求活動提早完結,又要求主辦方檢查參與者袋,不准帶酒精飲品入場,場內亦不可多於3,500人:「選舉日(警力)喺各區分到好散,佢哋驚唔夠警力,會有紛亂事件。」

趙佩玉請願批Pink Dot撞區選:昨日天父緊急call我去阻止
The large-scale LGBT carnival Pink Dot HK – One Pink will be held at the West Kowloon Cultural District on December 10, the same day as voting for the District Council election. Chiu Pui Yuk Joyce, which opposes equal rights, petitioned at the Government Headquarters today (December 6), saying: “Heavenly Father urgently called me yesterday and said I must go and stop this event.” It criticised the event for diverting voters, saying, “Everyone should be encouraged to go and vote, not all go there to promote these depraved things!” It urged the government to stop leasing the West Kowloon Cultural District for the event.

同志遊行連續4年未能舉辦 阿正任彩虹大使:平權需有人發聲
Hong Kong’s LGBTQ+ parade, which has a history of more than 10 years, has not been held for four consecutive years. Organisers said that, as the current social situation remained unclear and it was difficult to guarantee participants’ physical and mental safety, it would be replaced by exhibition activities. This year’s Rainbow Ambassador is Commercial Radio 903 DJ Wong Ching-yi (Ah Jeng). She said she hoped Hong Kong would not need to hold LGBTQ+ parades in future, “because this should become something very ordinary”. She also said that good values and equal rights require people to speak out. Even if criticised, she would respond with an attitude of “what’s it got to do with you?”, saying: “You wouldn’t let other people questioning you shake what you believe in.”
有逾十年歷史的香港同志遊行連續4年未能舉辦。主辦方解釋,目前社會情況仍不太明朗,難以擔保參與者身心安全為由,故改以展覽活動取代。今年的彩虹大使是叱咤903 DJ 黃正宜(阿正),她說希望香港未來不需再舉辦同志遊行,「因為呢事應該會變成好日常」,又指好的價值觀和平權是需要有人發聲,即使有人批評她,亦會抱「關你咩事」心態應對:「唔會因為有人質疑你,去動搖自己信嘅嘢㗎嘛」。

同運會開幕同日 民建聯政總外讀家庭價值宣言
The Gay Games began in Hong Kong today (the 3rd) and will be held for nine consecutive days. At noon, the Democratic Alliance for Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB) read a declaration outside Government Headquarters, stressing that the DAB respects different sexual orientations. It said, however, that it had received concerns from many schools and parents that the Gay Games would affect the one-man-one-woman marriage system and core family values. It said that maintaining a healthy rule of law in Hong Kong is based on safeguarding these values, which the DAB would “resolutely defend”, and stated its opposition to the legalisation of same-sex marriage. Chiu Pui Yuk Joyce, a member of the anti-Gay Games organisation Concern Group for Schools and Parents on the Sexual Orientation Ordinance, arrived holding a placard and asked the DAB to convey the group’s views. Vice-chairmen Holden Chow Ho-ding and Chan Hok-fung listened for a while before leaving hurriedly.
同樂運動會(Gay Games)由今(3日)起一連九日在香港舉行。民建聯中午到政總外宣讀宣言,強調民建聯尊重不同的性傾向,惟收到不少學校及家長憂慮同樂運動會將影響一男一女婚姻制度及家庭核心價值,而維持香港健康的法治,建基於如何維護相關價值,民建聯將「堅決捍衛」,並表明反對同性婚姻合法化。反同運組織「性傾向條例家校關注組」成員趙佩玉手持標語到場,要求民建聯代為反映意見,副主席周浩鼎及陳學鋒聆聽一會兒後便急步離開。

反同組織斥撐同運促辭職 葉劉指從未支持同性婚姻:係冇可能係香港發生
“A Group of Ordinary Hong Kong Citizens” held a press conference yesterday (November 1), criticising Executive Council Convener Regina Ip for supporting the Hong Kong Gay Games and even urging her to resign over her plan to attend the opening ceremony. Ip responded in a video posted on social media yesterday, saying that someone was attacking the New People’s Party and her for electoral purposes. Referring to the 2013 “Ms W case”, she said the Court of Final Appeal had ruled that the definition of marriage would not be changed, adding that same-sex marriage “is impossible for it to happen in Hong Kong”. She reiterated that neither the New People’s Party nor she had ever promoted or supported the legalisation of same-sex marriage.
「一群香港普通市民」昨日(11月1日)舉行記者會,批評行政會議召集人葉劉淑儀支持香港同樂運動會,甚至促擬出席開幕禮的她辭職。葉劉淑儀昨日在社交媒體拍片反擊,稱有人為選舉而攻擊新民黨及她,指2013年「W小姐案」,終審庭已裁決不會修改婚姻定義,指同性婚姻「係冇可能係香港發生」,重申新民黨及她從未推廣及贊成同性婚姻合法化。

何君堯發聯署要求煞停同樂運動會:須從國家安全角度著想
The 11th Gay Games will be held in Hong Kong for the first time in November, but the event has come under attack from a number of pro-establishment Legislative Council members in recent years. Junius Ho, who once said he did not want to “make this dirty money”, launched a petition last Thursday (April 20), saying its goal was to collect 120,000 signatures calling for the Gay Games to be halted. He criticised the event for challenging traditional values and said that “it is necessary to consider this from a national security perspective”. He said it was necessary to guard against people using the Games to damage Hong Kong again, and called on national security agencies to halt the event immediately, with the slogan: “Hello Hong Kong! We don’t need the Gay Games!”
第11屆同樂運動會(Gay Games)將於11月首次在港舉行,惟近年遭不少建制派立法會議員狙擊。曾稱「唔想賺呢啲污糟錢」的何君堯上周四(4月20日)發起聯署,稱目標收集12萬個簽名要求煞停同運會。他批評同運會衝擊傳統價值觀,又稱「必須要從國家安全角度著想」,須防範有人藉運動會再次破壞香港,更呼籲國安機構立即煞停運動會,「Hello香港!不靠同運!」
