Schools receive fax purportedly from Education Bureau urging support for removal of Bruce Lee statue; bureau says it is unrelated
學校收「教育局」傳真籲支持移除李小龍銅像 教育局：與局方無關
A social media page cited reports that several schools had received a 12-page fax issued in the name of the Education Bureau, which included an appeal for schools to “support the removal of the black-violence spiritual idol—the Bruce Lee statue—on the Avenue of Stars.” The page said the fax’s cover page bore the heading “Education Bureau 教育局”. The Education Bureau clarified in the evening that the “document” was completely unrelated to it and had notified schools that they need not take notice of it. It said it was concerned about the damage caused to the bureau and the nuisance caused to schools, and was seriously following up on the matter. If any illegal conduct was found to be involved, it would refer the matter to law-enforcement authorities for handling in accordance with the law.
有社交平台專頁引述指，多間學校收到以「教育局」名義發出的傳真文件，12頁內容中有提及呼籲學校「支持移除星光大道上的黑暴精神偶像-李小龍銅像。」專頁稱，該傳真的封面頁抬頭有「教育局Education Bureau」字樣。 教育局晚上澄清指，有關「文件」與局方完全無關，已通知學校無需理會，並關注事件對局方造成損害及對學校造成困擾，正嚴肅跟進，如發現涉及違法行為，將交執法部門依法處理。
