Google says court order required to remove “Glory to Hong Kong”; Sun Dong: Resolve it through legal means
Google 提出須有法庭手令才可移除《願榮光》孫東：就用法律手法解決
The Government earlier filed an application for an injunction to ban the broadcasting of “Glory to Hong Kong”, with a hearing held at the High Court on the 21st of this month. Sun Dong, Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry, explained on a radio programme that when the Government previously asked Google to place the correct national anthem at the top, Google said it would require proof that the song violated local law and a court order before removing it. The Government therefore sought to resolve the issue through legal means. He said: “Since you raised the issue of the law, we will use legal means to resolve it.”
政府早前入稟申請禁制令禁播《願榮光歸香港》，並於本月21日在高等法院聆訊。創新科技及工業局局長孫東在電台節目解釋，早前要求Google 將正確國歌置頂時，對方提出須證明歌曲有違當地的法律，以及有法庭手令才會移除，故政府才以法律解決問題，「既然你提出法律的問題，我們用法律的手法去解決問題」。
