教育局向大專院校施壓阻學者赴台出席中研院香港研討會 《教育刺針》：局方一劍封喉
Pulse HK reported last week that a political commentary article in Eastweek had pressured Hong Kong scholars by “calling on” them to decisively refuse to attend an international conference on Hong Kong to be held by Taiwan’s Academia Sinica in early December. The education news platform Education Sting received a tip alleging that the Hong Kong Education Bureau had also actively intervened by contacting tertiary institutions to prevent local scholars from travelling to the conference. Hans Yeung Wing-yu, the platform’s founder, said the Education Bureau’s “open and explicit” intervention this time amounted to “a fatal blow”, signalling that similar incidents must not happen again and that academic freedom would decline further.
Academia Sinica’s Hong Kong Studies group will hold the third “Hong Kong Studies Going Global” international conference on 4 and 5 December. In a post yesterday (28th), Education Sting said it had received exclusive and reliable information that the Education Bureau had contacted local tertiary institutions and directly pressured Hong Kong-based scholars who had already registered to attend, in an effort to stop them from going to the conference.
Hong Kong’s eight publicly funded universities have traditionally been regulated and funded by the University Grants Committee (UGC). However, Education Sting quoted a source as saying that the Education Bureau had taken the initiative this time and, after obtaining information including the participating scholars and their paper topics, directly pressured the institutions. According to Pulse HK, at least five scholars from Hong Kong are scheduled to present papers, including Ma Ngok of The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
《追光者》上周曾報道，《東周刊》有政論文章向香港學者施壓「呼籲」要果斷拒絕出席台灣中央研究院（中研院）將於12月初舉辦的香港相關國際研討會。教育新聞平台《教育刺針》收到爆料，指香港教育局亦積極干預，聯繫大專院校阻止本港學者前往。《教育刺針》創辦人楊穎宇認為，這次教育局「開宗明義」出手算是「一劍封喉」，代表不可再發生類似事件，亦意味學術自由會進一步下降。
台灣中研院「香港研究」小組，將於12月4至5日舉行第三屆「香港研究走向全球」國際研討會，《教育刺針》昨（28日）發文稱獲得獨家可靠消息，教育局聯繫本地大專院校，直接向已報名參加會議的在港學者施壓，阻止他們出席會議。
香港八間資助大學一向都是由大學教育資助委員會（UGC）規管及撥款。不過，《教育刺針》引述報料人透露，教育局今次主動出手，在掌握有關出席學者及論文題目等資訊後，直接向院校施壓。據《追光者》了解，來自香港並將會發表論文的學者至少有5位，包括中文大學的馬嶽。

「手語哥哥」黃耀邦專訪｜港表演被迫取消 台灣演出堅持追夢
How can someone who cannot hear dance? On stage, Wong Yiu-bong leads dancers with physical disabilities as they move to the music. He dances out passion, as well as sadness and frustration, while wheelchair users, amputee dancers and hard-of-hearing dancers all shine on stage. Wong has performed “Glory to Hong Kong” in sign language and served as a sign-language interpreter at the “Civilian Press Conference”. A theatre production he was scheduled to perform in last year was cancelled by the organiser. He said frankly that he had done nothing wrong and did not know why he had been targeted. He said he interpreted because he wanted to contribute to society and fight for equal access to information for deaf people. After failing to find a performance venue in Hong Kong, he moved the performance to Taipei last weekend, saying: “I will persist in doing what I want to do and will not give up.”
“Sign-language Brother” Wong Yiu-bong founded Hong Kong’s first deaf dance troupe, the Forest Joy Deaf Dance Troupe, 15 years ago. He is devoted to dance and believes it can connect different people and promote integration between people with and without disabilities. The troupe performed “Hand Dance Touch 2 — You’ll Never Dance Alone” in Taipei last weekend, marking their first appearance on a Taiwanese theatre stage. Although they cannot hear, they can also dance by feeling the beat through the vibrations of the music on stage, but they have to put in more effort than people without hearing impairments and face more difficulties. The performance begins with a solo dance in darkness, expressing disappointment, frustration and vexation, much like what he experienced over the past year.
聽不見，如何起舞？黃耀邦在舞台上，帶領其他身體有殘障的舞者，隨着音樂律動。他跳出熱情，也跳出悲傷沮喪，坐着輪椅的、穿上義肢的、弱聽的舞者，在台上同時發光發亮。黃耀邦曾以手語演釋《願榮光歸香港》、擔任「民間記者會」手語傳譯，去年原定演出的舞台劇被主辦方取消，他直言沒做錯甚麼，不知道為何會針對自己，而做傳譯只是想貢獻社會，為聾人爭取平等資訊權。在港苦尋表演場地不果，上周末移師台北表演，「會堅持下去做自己想做的事，不會放棄」。
「手語哥哥」黃耀邦在15年前創辦香港首個聾人舞團「森林樂聾人舞蹈團」，他醉心舞蹈，亦相信舞蹈可以連結不同人，達至傷健共融。舞蹈團上周末在台北演出《手舞觸動2－You’ll Never Dance Alone》，這是他們第一次踏上台灣劇場的台板。聽不見，但透過音樂在舞台上的震動，感受拍子，同樣能跳舞，但要比平常人付出更多、面對更多困難。黑暗中，以一首獨舞開始，失望、沮喪、懊惱，彷如過去一年他所經歷的事。

昨日（9月28日）是雨傘運動爆發十周年。「佔中九子」之一、2021年移居台灣的前立法會議員陳淑莊發帖，宣布自己的新身份為台北「紅棉」餐廳主廚，形容自己為成廚師是一個不可思議的奇蹟。

【傘後十年】赴美留學 異地續寫香港故事 周永康：與自己和解
In June 2019, Alex Chow, who was pursuing a doctorate in the United States, briefly returned to Hong Kong and happened to witness the outbreak of the anti-extradition bill movement. During the Umbrella Movement, he had served as secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students and was dubbed one of the “three student leaders” alongside Joshua Wong and Lester Shum. He instinctively wondered how the movement would be coordinated and whether the conflicts of 2014 could be avoided.
But events developed faster than anyone could have imagined. After Chow returned to the United States, the movement evolved into “no central leadership” and “no distinction between peaceful and militant protesters.” Later, the National Security Law was passed, and Hong Kong society underwent profound changes. Chow had not expected that it would be his last time returning to Hong Kong.
2019年6月，正在美國修讀博士的周永康，短暫返港，剛好目睹反修例運動爆發。在雨傘運動時擔任學聯秘書長、與黃之鋒和岑敖暉被合稱為「雙學三子」的他，下意識地想，運動怎樣協調？能夠迴避2014年的矛盾嗎？
但事情比誰想像中也發展得快。周永康返美後，運動演化為「無大台」、「和勇不分」，再後來《國安法》通過，香港社會巨變。周永康沒想過，那是他最後一次回港。

台灣教育展單張塗去「全國」、「僑生」等字眼 參展院校稱被要求勿回應「國立」大學退展
The Hong Kong Taiwan Higher Education Exhibition resumed today (27th) at the Kowloon Bay International Trade & Exhibition Centre for two days, after a four-year hiatus. Taiwanese media reported last week that the Hong Kong organiser had required Taiwan’s public universities not to participate under the title “National”, resulting in 11 public universities withdrawing. InMedia visited the exhibition this afternoon, where staff from participating institutions said the person in charge had “hinted” that universities should not answer reporters’ questions about the withdrawal of the “National” universities. The words “nationwide”, “overseas Chinese students”, “overseas”, “national”, “domestic students” and “foreign” had also been covered over on leaflets distributed by private universities or in booklets distributed by the organiser. On a notice board, “Overseas Joint Admissions Committee” had been covered to read “Overseas Liaison Committee”.
闊別4年的「香港台灣高等教育展」今日（27日）起一連兩日在九龍灣國際展貿中心復辦，上周有台灣傳媒報道，因香港主辦方要求台灣的公立大學不能以「國立」頭銜參展，最終有11間公立大學退出。《獨媒》今午到場視察，有參展職員向記者表示，教育展負責人已向各院校「暗示」不能回答記者有關「國立」大學退展等問題，現場私立大學派發的單張或主辦方派發的小冊子上，「全國」、「僑生」、「海外」、「國家」、「本國生」、「外國」等字眼亦被塗去，告示板上的「海外聯招會」則被遮蓋成「海聯會」。

「國立」頭銜被禁 台灣逾10大學棄參加香港教育展
The 2023 Hong Kong Taiwan Higher Education Exhibition will be held from Friday to Saturday (27–28). Taiwanese media reported that, after Hong Kong authorities required Taiwan’s public universities not to participate under the title “National”, Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council and Ministry of Education assessed the situation, and all the public universities that had originally registered to participate ultimately withdrew. The Education Bureau told The Independent Media that it was not involved in organising the event and had not contacted the organisations concerned. The Independent Media has also made enquiries with the Police National Security Department.
「2023香港台灣高等教育展」將於周五至周六（27-28日）舉行，惟有台灣傳媒報道，因香港官方要求台灣的公立大學不能以「國立」頭銜參展，台灣的陸委會與教育部評估後，原本報名參加的公立大學最後全部不參加。教育局回覆《獨媒》表示，沒有參與有關活動的籌辦工作，也沒有聯絡相關機構。《獨媒》另已向警方國安處查詢。

歷來最多香港作品入選台灣金馬創投 談港人離散、疫後少年創傷
The darker the sky, the brighter the stars. Taiwan’s Golden Horse Project Promotion has announced its selected projects. By place of production, 11 Hong Kong works were selected this year—the highest number on record. Including works by Hong Kong directors who have emigrated, the total is 12. After China’s boycott of the Golden Horse Awards, Hong Kong works had been absent from the Golden Horse Project Promotion for nearly five years. Their emergence and selection rate have instead continued to rise, setting new records repeatedly over the past three years. Apart from host Taiwan, Hong Kong is the region with the most selected works. Many of the selected projects respond to Hong Kong’s social changes in recent years.
天愈黑，星愈亮。台灣「金馬創投」公布入圍項目，若以產地劃分，今年共有11個香港作品入選，為歷年最多。若連同移民的香港導演作品，則有12個港人作品入選。隨著中國杯葛金馬，近五年絕跡「金馬創投」後，香港作品冒起和入選比例反而不斷上升，這三年屢刷下新高，是繼東道主台灣以外，另一個最多作品入選的地區。而入選作品中，不少回應著香港近年的社會轉變。

拒應電檢要求刪改 3台灣電影取消放映 一片須刪總統府前遊行場面
Three Taiwanese films have had their screenings cancelled after refusing requests from the Office for Film, Newspaper and Article Administration to cut scenes. They include the friendship film 《Fu laan saam siu》, the pandemic film 《Gaak lei ding nei》 and the documentary about Vietnamese migrant workers 《Tou paau dik jan》. The director of 《Tou paau dik jan》 told InMediaHK that he had been asked to cut a scene showing labour groups marching along Ketagalan Boulevard in front of Taiwan’s Presidential Office, and said it felt “very sudden and regrettable” that the film could not be screened in Hong Kong. The Panda International Film Festival, Hong Kong Asian Film Festival and Images Without Borders Film Festival subsequently announced that screenings of the films had been cancelled. The Office for Film, Newspaper and Article Administration said it would not comment on individual film applications. Records show that in the past 18 months, at least nine films had their screenings cancelled after directors refused to make cuts requested by the film censor, while at least four others had to cancel screenings because they did not receive certificates of approval before release.
接連有3套台灣電影因拒應電影、報刊及物品管理辦事處要求刪減情節而取消放映，包括有關友情的《唬爛三小》、關於疫情的《隔離丁尼》及越南移工紀錄片《逃跑的人》，其中《逃》導演向《獨媒》表示，被要求修剪在總統府凱達格蘭大道前勞工團體遊行的場面，對未能在港放映感到「很突然，很遺憾」。原定放映以上短片的熊貓國際電影節、香港亞洲電影節及影像無國界電影節先後宣布取消放映，電檢處則稱不會評論個別影片申請。翻查資料，過去一年半至少9部電影因導演拒絕應電檢要求刪改而取消放映，亦有至少4部電影未能在上映前獲發准映證而需取消放映。
