Hong Kong Intelligence Report #56 "Patriots'' Administering Hong Kong?

Guests are urged to taste camel-hoof stew, frosty oranges weigh upon sweet tangerines. Crimson gates reek with meat and ale, while on the streets are bones of the frozen dead. [It depicts extreme inequalities among people] (1)
a. Total (at present) 225 ''patriots'' - ''pro-establishment'' - ''love China, love Hong Kong'' figures like HKSAR administrative officers, PRCNPC, Election Committee members, Legislative Council lawmakers and business owners ruthlessly or derivatively violated Prevention and Control of Disease (Wearing of Mask) Regulation - especially 5A. Requirement to wear mask in specified public place during specified period - on January 3, 2022. In general, so called 'public opinions' are sheer illusions and automatically replaced with 'opinions' by individual 'professionals' via corporate media. On this COVID birthday party issue (Hung, Witman Wai Man's birthday party cluster / 洪為民的「洪門宴」) , their peers, ideologues of the ruling corporatist party (vested interests) released several false narratives to cover their wrongdoings hypocritically. One is that 'those PATORIOTs did not violate any law thus the on-going public backlash is some one's conspiracy'; the other one is that 'the only way to whitewash a scandal is to provoke raged masses into another scandal namely this birthday party cluster was used to whitewash and distract public attentions from Cathay Pacific's mismanagement on its infected pilots (December 24 COVID case#12611 and December 27 #12676)'. Obviously, there is no doubt that cronies help cronies. Not only they distorted law enforcement but also they distorted ethical standard. The undeniable fact is that at least those privileged ''patriots'' violated Prevention and Control of Disease (Wearing of Mask) Regulation - especially 5A. Requirement to wear mask in specified public place during specified period while they were enjoying unlicensed karaoke in the Spanish restaurant Reserva Ibérica Tapas Bar & Restaurant. On the other hand, those P.C.D.R. violators including both the Cathay Pacific cluster and Hung, Witman Wai Man's birthday party cluster are all responsible for their misbehaviours that severally threatened public health and interests. In other words, this is a true and real national security issue. This issue cannot be solved by one-sidedly scapegoating Cathay Pacific.
b. Unlike the official narrative, Hong Kong's fifth wave of COVID-19 infection has been started from December 15, 2021 since then the total active cases only increasing day by day, quadrupled from 104 cases (December 15, 2021) to 459 cases (January 8, 2022). (2) It indicates that the true origin of the Hong Kong's fifth COVID outbreak is a number of P.C.D.R. exemptions not Omicron itself. In other words, it is a unavoidable result of WITH-COVID policy of Hong Kong (on the contrary, the central government is requiring ZERO-COVID policy). Meanwhile, those December 24 COVID case#12611 and December 27 #12676 are just scapegoats. The outbreak actually has begun before the well-known cases. From this viewpoint, we can estimate that the end of the fifth wave of COVID outbreak can be seen as the total active cases decreasing below 104 cases. Besides this, real-estate oligarchs (地產霸權) and their agitators to call for freely reopening borders with mainland China for ''raising housing prices'' (it means mainland speculators to play a money game in HK at the cost of poor residents) under the circumstances is extremely crazy and outrageous. For this propaganda purpose, even a psychological tactic was used to manipulate the public (see the touching tale from Pak Fu Shan Operational Base ''免檢疫通關遙遙無期 有居港內地人登白虎山與對岸家人見面'' by TVB) .
Although originally it just means laissez-faire and the herd immunity theory, With-COVID now means that balancing the need to prevent the spread of infection with the need to maintain economic activities. Unlike official rhetoric, Hong Kong government is practicing With-COVID as Carrie Lam implied many times by denying implementation of mainland-like Zero-COVID policy.
c. Hung, Witman Wai Man's birthday party cluster revealed the vast crony networks of the ruling corporatists. The main point is that there is still no full list of the attendees (ruling ''pro-establishment'' corporatists) available publicly, specifically about the leading business leaders from the private sector. They have been totally hidden from the public since January 3, 2022 by HKSAR government and almost all Hong Kong media. It means that those business leaders are more powerful and prestigious than those 'public figures' in establishment.

d. A Facebook page named ''公務員secrets'' (CivilSecrets) exposed the other two similar incidents. Such as Civil Engineering and Development Department's yacht party on January 6 and Lands Department's no-mask group photo session on January 5, 2022. Those ruling official ''patriot'' title holders (corporatists) revealed their arrogance, hypocrisy, double standard and moral degradation during these days after the land sliding victory of undemocratically ''regulated'' legislative election. Why did Hong Kong citizens get raged? Simply it is due to ruling classes' double standard.
e. So called EC is the abbreviation for the privileged Election Committee (the core of ruling class; Sep.19, 2021-2026) of this city. On the contrary to the term ''perfection'' (完善), the vast majority of the EC were elected without actual votes. For instance, there are three major election methods of EC (1,500 members) that a) registration by designated title-holders (362 members ; 當然委員) ; b) nomination by designated interest groups (156 members); votes by designated interest groups (982 members). Moreover, only 6 categories out of 40 categories were actually voted; 21/ 40 were automatically elected; and 22 / 40 were registered or nominated (many categories were overlapped with each other in terms of the EC election method).

f. Hung, Witman Wai Man is a political agent of one of big developers, Sino Group (信和集團). And he himself is a registered EC member (當然委員) not democratically elected by votes.

g. On January 31, 2022, Carrie Lam announced that home affairs minister Caspar Tsui Ying-wai resigned, Allen Fung and Vincent Fung Hao-yin got oral warnings from their superiors. It means that only 3 out of 225 attendees were punished. In other words, they simply became scapegoats for other 222 'pro-establishment' attendees.
FACTS
1.日前選委洪為民大搞宴會廣邀賓客，多達12名高官出席百人宴會，事後揭發1名初步確診者在席，導致曾接觸有關人士或出席聚會的人士，包括民政事務局局長徐英偉，以及數名立法會議員都要到竹篙灣隔離。成功連任立法會主席的梁君彥今早（7日）表示，事件中有19名議員出席，4名立法會議員陳仲尼、陸瀚民、邱達根及洪雯，需到竹篙灣隔離，原定下周三（12日）召開的首次大會將視乎疫情，希望可如期進行。出席宴會的議員還包括譚岳衡、林順潮、容海恩、周文港、林琳、葛珮帆、郭玲麗、黎棟國、梁毓偉、郭偉强、霍啟剛、陳沛良、陳家珮、何君堯、吳傑莊。至下午議員林智遠表示，他亦有份出席，已接受檢測，並為影響防疫工作致歉。(4)
2.港府防疫措施不斷強推，市民無奈接受，但近日發現多名高官無視防疫規定出席派對遭到隔離檢測，更有確診者出席派對造成新一條傳播鏈。然而，高官懶理防疫安排事件不絕於耳，網上再度爆出土木工程拓展署官員昨(6日)舉行遊艇派對，數十人更在岸上合照。Facebook專頁「公務員Secret」有貼文指有人無視港府疫情爆發舉行聚會，目的為慶祝可持續大嶼辦事處處長方學誠升任土木工程拓展署署長，並拍下數十人合照的照片。根據照片所見，數十人持有大型橫額，寫上「熱烈恭賀方學誠先生出任土木工程拓展署署長」，並印有方學誠的個人頭像。單以照片所示，有關橫額印有三幅，分別懸掛在遊艇上、岸上圍欄，另有出席人士手持一幅，好不威風。(5)
3.我常說，要掩蓋自己的醜聞，最好的方法，就是等另一單醜聞出現，讓它蓋過你的風頭。今次，國泰及那兩名因違規而播毒的空姐空少，就成功逃離了大眾目光。有醫生朋友說，到今天，抗疫兩年多，政府的專家仍在糾纏於食肆的室內空氣流量，而不是用有效方法去阻截病毒源頭。(6)
4.問及身為特首及一眾夜蒲高官的上司有何責任，林鄭辯稱自己僅須為整體防疫成效負責，個別官員則須為自己的行為負責。不過，早前多名國泰機組人員違規四處播毒，林鄭不是要求國泰高層為旗下員工的行為負責嗎？為何對自己、對政府高官又有另一套標準呢？再者，林鄭本周初仍堅稱毋須大幅收緊社交距離措施，到周三發現疫情迅速擴散才後知後覺地急轉彎，推出禁晚市堂食等防疫辣招。徐英偉周一晚參加派對，並無違反當時的防疫規定，甚至可說是被林鄭誤導，怎能推說自己完全毋須負責？在內地，任何省、市、縣、區一旦爆發疫情，主事官員即使毋須立即下台，最少也會被記過。英國政府早前也爆出多宗類似的高官涉嫌違反防疫規定醜聞，部分個案其實證據薄弱，但為了保住政府民望及維護防疫措施的公信力，相關官員最終也要自行辭職。為何唯獨香港特區的高官可以「免疫」呢？(7)
5.當然，嚴懲失職官員、追究國泰航空一樣要同步進行。林鄭日前才言之鑿鑿謂，國泰高層必須為旗下員工的行為負責，為何同樣情況發生在港府之內，林鄭不但拒絕問責，而且連道歉都欠奉？香港一日有如此班子胡亂施政，疫情也難有平息之日，尤其距離政府換屆還有半年，一旦Omicron疫情如衞生官員估計一爆3個月至半年，勢必影響7‧1回歸慶典，豈不令國家領導人失望！(8)
6.爆出兩名染疫者的「洪門宴」波及大專學界。科技大學今日(7日)向學校成員發信，指今早獲悉3名科大成員，包括副校長(大學拓展)汪揚、香港科技大學(廣州)副校長兼霍英東研究生院院長吳宏偉，以及霍英東研究院綠色建築及環境研發部總監吳池力，於周一(3日)曾出席一個有兩名確診者的聚會。據了解，該聚會為選委洪為民生日宴會。(9)
7.曾赴「洪門宴」香港電台女主持楊子矜昨初步確診，丈夫朱偉星醫生送檢。據悉，衞生署覆檢發現楊子矜的個案顯示確診，但有疫苗基因，袁國勇教授今日(8日)下午2時將到朱偉星診所巡視，調查新冠疫苗污染的可能性。朱偉星接受傳媒查詢時表示，其妻入院後曾檢測沒有確診，目前正等待第3次檢測結果，他估計自己替妻子檢測時，或污染到她的樣本。(10)
8.她[食物及衞生局長陳肇始]又表示本港現時疫情嚴峻和緊張，社區內有多條傳播鏈，因此當務之急是盡快截斷傳播鏈，找出個案源頭。她又說，現時全港增設了共40個檢測站，由上月至今政府一直採取圍封強制檢測行動，檢測了約1.6萬個樣本，結果全部呈陰性，而圍封行動相信會持續，亦呼籲曾到高危地點的市民盡快檢測。對於檢疫設施持續緊張方面，她指竹篙灣檢疫中心現時大概用了1500個單位，而其他備用設施，包括鯉魚門
