Nearly 30 Years After Its Founding, Harbour Protection Society Disbands, Saying It Can No Longer Protect the Harbour in the Same Way

成立近30年 保護海港協會解散 慨嘆無法再以同樣方法保護海港

The Harbour Protection Society, founded in 1995, announced that its members had unanimously approved the cessation of operations at midnight yesterday. At its final press conference this morning (1 August), Hardy Kung Chin Lok, chairwoman of the Harbour Protection Society, explained the decision, saying the society had always relied on legal grounds to protect the harbour. However, following amendments to the Protection of the Harbour Ordinance in May this year, the basic protection had disappeared, meaning the society could no longer use the same method to protect the harbour “effectively” through the law. It hoped members of the public would continue to protect the harbour individually in future. The Protection of the Harbour (Amendment) Bill 2024 was passed by the Legislative Council in May. One point of contention was that whether large-scale reclamation projects met an “overriding public need” would be assessed by the Chief Executive and the Executive Council, rather than decided by the court. After internal discussions, the Harbour Protection Society, founded in 1995, concluded that it could no longer protect the harbour “effectively” through the law. About five members unanimously approved the decision, and the society formally announced that it had ceased operations at midnight yesterday (31 July), having completed its “historic mission”. It will handle its dissolution in accordance with legal procedures over the coming months.

在1995年成立的保護海港協會宣布,獲會員一致通過,在昨日午夜已停止運作。協會今早(8月1日)舉行最後記招交代停運事宜,保護海港協會主席陸恭正解釋停運決定,並指協會一直以法律基礎保護海港,惟今年5月《保護海港條例》修訂後,基本保障已消失,協會無法再用同樣方法,以法律「有效地」保護海港,冀未來市民續以個人方式保護海港。 稱修例後失法律基礎 無法再「有效地」保護海港 《2024年保護海港(修訂)條例草案》在5月獲立法會通過,其中一項爭議為由行政長官和行政會議評估大型填海工程是否符合「凌駕性公眾需要」,而非交由法庭作決定。 1995年成立的保護海港協會,經協會內部商討後,認為不能再「有效地」以法律保護海港,獲該會約5名會員一致通過,正式宣布協會在昨日(7月31日)午夜停止運作,完成「歷史使命」,未來數月會按法律程序處理解散事宜。

At League of Social Democrats dissolution press conference, Leung Tsz-kit hopes to continue serving disadvantaged communities without hesitation

出席社民連解散記者會 岑子杰:冀續義無反顧為弱勢社群付出

The League of Social Democrats announced its dissolution. Leung Tsz-kit, a former vice-chairman of the League of Social Democrats and former convenor of the Civil Human Rights Front who was released from prison earlier after completing his sentence in the primary election case, also attended the press conference. Leung said the League’s guiding principle, “helping the weak and supporting the disadvantaged, without hesitation,” had encouraged him for many years. He reiterated that, even though the League had dissolved, he still hoped to continue serving disadvantaged communities without hesitation and caring for those in need: “I am very grateful that the League of Social Democrats once existed. I very much hope that society will still have voices in the future—speaking up for disadvantaged communities without hesitation, with unwavering determination and consistently.”

社民連宣布解散,曾任社民連副主席的前民陣召集人、早前因初選案刑滿出獄的岑子杰亦有出席記者會。岑子杰指出,社民連宗旨「濟弱扶傾,義無反顧」多年一直鼓勵著自己,重申即使社民連已解散,仍希望能義無反顧為弱勢社群付出,關心有需要的人:「好感恩社民連曾經存在,好希望未來嘅社會仍然會有聲音,義無反顧、堅定不移、一以貫之地為弱勢社群發聲。」

Responding to the League of Social Democrats’ Dissolution: Democratic Convictions Will Not Die; Authoritarian Walls Cannot Block the People’s Will

回應社民連解散:民主信念不滅,威權高牆難阻人心

(Hong Kong, 29 June 2025)—As Hong Kong enters the fifth year of the “post-National Security Law era,” a grave development was reported today: the League of Social Democrats (LSD), one of the city’s longest-established street-level democratic parties, was forced to announce its dissolution amid intense political pressure and security threats. This once again demonstrates that the Hong Kong government’s social transformation project carried out in the name of “national security” is continuing to suppress the space for public and democratic development in Hong Kong society. The LSD’s dissolution is the result of the Hong Kong government’s comprehensive intervention in freedom of expression, association and assembly in the name of “national security.” It was reported that, over the past year, the LSD received repeated messages from Beijing warning that it must dissolve before 1 July, implying that it would otherwise face serious consequences. The authorities’ use of the National Security Law and the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance as legal weapons, along with arbitrary convictions and indefinitely extended sentences, is no longer hypothetical but a visible reality. As documented in our Hong Kong Human Rights Report 2024, the LSD has for years been subjected to continual legal harassment. Several of its core members have been imprisoned in recent years in political cases. In the 2020 pro-democracy primary election case, Leung Kwok-hung and Jimmy Sham were charged with “conspiracy to subvert state power” and sentenced to six years and nine months’ imprisonment and four years and three months’ imprisonment, respectively. Jimmy Sham completed his sentence and was released from prison at the end of May this year. Leung Kwok-hung, now 69, remains imprisoned and faces the risk of a further extension of his sentence at any time.

(香港,2025年6月29日)——在香港進入「後國安法時代」的第五年,今日傳來一項沉重消息:本地歷史最悠久的街頭民主政黨之一,社會民主連線(社民連)在強大政治壓力及安全威脅下被迫宣佈解散。這再次證明香港政府以「國家安全」為名的社會改造工程,正持續扼殺香港社會的公共及民主發展的空間。 社民連的解散,是香港政府以「國家安全」為名,全面介入言論、結社、集會自由後的結果。據報,過去一年社民連多次收到來自北京的「傳話」,警告他們須於七月一日前解散,暗示否則將面臨嚴重後果。 當局以《國安法》與《維護國家安全條例》作為法律武器,任意定罪與無限延伸的刑期早已不是假設,而是可見的現實。正如我們在《香港人權報告 2024》中記錄,社民連多年來持續遭受法律手段騷擾。社民連多名核心成員近年先後因政治案件被判囚。在2020年民主派立法會初選案中,梁國雄與岑子杰被控「串謀顛覆國家政權罪」,分別被判入獄六年九個月及四年三個月。岑子杰於今年五月底刑滿出獄,現年六十九歲的梁國雄則仍在囚,隨時面臨進一步延長刑期的風險。

League of Social Democrats dissolves | Chairperson Chan Po-ying weeps: “Forced to disband; I feel guilty in my heart”

社民連解散|寧化飛灰,不作浮塵 主席陳寶瑩淌淚 「被逼解散 有愧於心」

“Better to turn to flying ash than become floating dust,” “Without protest, how can there be change?” and “Helping the weak and supporting those in difficulty, without hesitation.” These may be the final protest slogans shouted by the League of Social Democrats. Last Wednesday, the 19-year-old Hong Kong left-wing party suddenly announced that it would dissolve. The League of Social Democrats held a press conference this afternoon (29th) to formally explain the decision. Chairperson Chan Po-ying said that, in the face of immense political pressure and after considering various factors—particularly the impact on members and fellow activists—the party could only announce its dissolution with great sorrow. Asked repeatedly about the reason for the dissolution, Chan said with a smile: “I think everyone understands. There are many things in Hong Kong now that cannot be spelled out explicitly.” She said this was a tragic situation and that “there are many things I’m not in a position to say.” She also said that, having been forced to disband, dissolution was an unavoidable decision made with no alternative—the only choice available.

「寧化飛灰,不作浮塵」、「沒有抗爭,哪有改變」、「濟弱扶傾,義無反顧」。這可能是社會民主連線,最後一次高呼抗議口號。上周三,有 19 年歷史的本港左翼政黨社會民主連線突傳出解散。社民連今午(29日)召開宣告解散記者會,正式交代決定。 社民連主席陳寶瑩表示,面對強大政治壓力,考慮各方因素,特別是對會員,同行者的影響,只能沉痛地宣佈解散。 多次被問及解散原因,陳寶瑩笑說:「我諗大家領會啦,𠵱家香港有好多嘢,都唔能夠畫公仔畫出腸」,她指這是可悲的情況,「好多嘢我唔方便講」。她又說,被逼解散,只能無奈地、沒辦法之下,是一個唯一的選擇。

China Labour Bulletin disbands; founded in Hong Kong by leader of 1989 workers’ movement

中國勞工通訊解散 由八九工運領袖在港創立

China Labour Bulletin, founded in Hong Kong in 1994 by Han Dongfang, a leader of the 1989 pro-democracy and workers’ movements, announced its dissolution yesterday. It said that amid a funding shortfall and debts, it was no longer able to maintain operations. Its website would stop being updated from that day, while its other social media pages had also been removed. It said: “Thank you all for your support and understanding.” The China Labour Bulletin website is currently inaccessible. According to archived records, its organisational profile described it as a Hong Kong-based non-governmental organisation dedicated to supporting and promoting the Chinese workers’ movement. Domestically, its main goals were to promote the All-China Federation of Trade Unions’ fulfilment of its responsibilities and encourage workers to participate in trade union reform, so that trade unions would genuinely represent workers’ interests. Internationally, China Labour Bulletin said it would provide the latest reliable information about Chinese workers and promote lasting international solidarity.

1994年由八九民運工運領袖韓東方在港創方的「中國勞工通訊」,昨日公告解散,稱資金短缺及負債下,公司已無法維持運作,網站即日起停止更新,其他社交媒體專頁亦已移除,稱「感謝大家的支持與理解」。 「中國勞工通訊」的網站,目前已無法瀏覽。根據備份紀錄,在其網站組織簡介中,「中國勞工通訊」稱是位於香港的非政府組織,致力於支持並推動中國工人運動。在國內層面,他們主要目標為促進中華全國總工會履行職責,鼓勵工人參與工會改革,使工會真正成為工人利益的代表者。在國際層面,「中國勞工通訊」稱會提供有關中國工人的最新可靠資訊,促進持久的國際團結。

Lo Kin-hei says Democratic Party dissolution is unlikely to be reversed; will remain in Hong Kong and continue speaking out

羅健熙:不認為民主黨解散「有彎轉」 將續留港發聲

The Democratic Party recently held a special members’ meeting that approved authorising the Central Committee to follow up further on its dissolution. A special meeting will be convened within several months to vote on the dissolution. Asked whether there was still room for a change, Democratic Party chairman Lo Kin-hei said that, after going through the process, the party had moved ever closer to dissolution, which had become the direction it was about to take. Lo also said he would continue speaking out after the party’s dissolution and would not leave Hong Kong, saying that even without the Democratic Party, he could continue community and environmental work to give back to Hong Kong. Lo appeared this morning on a webcast programme hosted by former Legislative Council member Emily Lau to discuss how the Democratic Party was preparing for dissolution. Neither gave a direct explanation of the reason for the dissolution. Lau said on the programme that dissolution was not something the Democratic Party “wanted to do”. Lo said that the number of Central Committee members had increased in last December’s election, and that the party had originally hoped to continue doing its utmost, including making proposals on the Policy Address and the Budget: “But certain things happened, and everyone could see that the balance had changed, forcing us to make this choice.”

民主黨早前舉行特別會員大會,通過授權中委會進一步跟進解散事宜,將在數月內會召開特別大會表決解散。被問到解散「有無彎轉」,民主黨主席羅健熙稱經過一輪過程已向解散「越行越近」,已屬「即將邁向嘅方向」。另外,羅健熙表示,在民主黨解散後仍會繼續發聲,亦不會離開香港,稱即使沒有民主黨,仍然可以繼續進行社區、環保工作回饋香港。 羅健熙今早出席前立法會議員劉慧卿的網台節目,討論民主黨如何準備解散。二人一直未能正面交代解散原因,劉慧卿在節目中稱,解散並非民主黨「願意搞」。羅健熙則指民主黨在去年12月改選中委,人數更有所增加,原本希望繼續盡力做,包括就《施政報告》、《財政預算案》提出建議:「但有啲情況發生,大家見到嗰個平衡係轉變咗,焗住去做呢個選擇。」

Democratic Party Special Membership Meeting: About 90% Approve Central Committee Follow-up on Dissolution

民主黨特別會員大會 約九成通過中委會跟進解散

The Democratic Party, which was established more than 30 years ago, reportedly faced requests from “intermediaries” to dissolve. It held a special membership meeting at its headquarters this afternoon (13th) to decide whether to “authorise the Central Committee to follow up further on the dissolution of the Democratic Party”. A large number of media outlets waited outside during the meeting. The meeting ended after one and a half hours, with more than 110 people attending. About 90% voted to authorise the Central Committee to follow up on the dissolution, although the resolution was not itself a resolution to dissolve the party. Democratic Party chairperson Lo Kin-hei told the media after the meeting that the party was seeking legal advisers and accountants to provide advice on the winding-up, but could not confirm when the dissolution would take place, and the procedures might not be completed until next year.

成立逾30年的民主黨,傳有「中間人」要求解散,今午(13日)在總部召開特別會員大會,議決「通過授權中央委員會就民主黨解散作進一步跟進」。會議進行期間,大批傳媒在門外等候,大會歷時1小時半完結,逾110人出席大會,約九成人投票授權中委會跟進解散事宜,惟相關議決並非解散決議。民主黨主席羅健熙會後見傳媒表示,正物色法律顧問及會計就清盤提供意見,惟未能確實解散時間,有機會明年才完成程序。

Reuters: Democratic Party senior figures say Beijing demanded disbandment, warning of ‘serious consequences’ or arrest; Yeung Sum admits being approached by intermediary

路透社:民主黨高層稱被北京要求解散 否則恐臨「嚴重後果」或被捕 楊森承認被中間人接觸

The Democratic Party announced in February that it had formed a three-member group to prepare for its prospective disbandment. It is expected to hold a special general meeting tomorrow (13th) to decide whether to authorise the Central Committee to handle the dissolution matters further. Reuters reported yesterday (11th), citing five Democratic Party members, that they had previously been warned by Beijing officials or intermediaries that the party would face “serious consequences”, including arrest, if it did not disband. The report quoted the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government as saying that decisions by individual groups to disband or cease operations are completely unrelated to the rights and freedoms protected by Hong Kong law.

民主黨2月宣佈成立三人小組準備解散前期工作,料明日(13日)召開特別會員大會,決定是否授權中委會進一步處理解散事務。路透社昨日(11日)引述民主黨5名黨員透露此前受北京官員或中間人警告,若民主黨不解散便會面臨被捕等「嚴重後果」。報道引述特區政府回應稱,個別團體解散或停止運作的決定,與香港法律保障的權利與自由完全無關。
