【An open letter to Consulate General of Israel in Hong Kong & Macau Sagi Karni on Hong Kong Police Force's inappropriate "Nazis" comparison incident follow up】
27 February 2017
Dr Hon Cheng Chung-tai has written to the Consulate General of Israel in Hong Kong & Macau Sagi Karni to set out what it considers are issues he may wish to prioritize as follow up of the HKPF's "Nazis" remarks incident.
First of all, I am appreciative of Your Excellency's prompt response in regard to Passiontime's reminder last week.
However, this regrettable episode is far from over:
On the evening of 23 February, Joe Chan Cho-kwong, Chairman of the Junior Police Officers’ Association – which was the organiser of the event – said: “The association expresses regret if any participant in Wednesday’s gathering expressed views that offended anyone, any community, or any country.” A police spokesman also said the speaker's speech did not represent the force’s position and that the force did not agree with the remarks. (Taken from South China Morning Post report, 23 February 2017)
On 24 February, according to another report from South China Morning Post, Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF) had decided to arrange meetings with the two consulates, hoping to "explain the situation and clear up any misunderstanding".
My position is: To describe the outrage as a mere "misunderstanding" adds insult to injury.
As at the time of writing this open letter, no disciplinary action has been taken against the police officer who made the inappropriate remark.
Given that over tens of thousands rallied responded with a clear "yes" to the remark, it would be likely that at least one-third grand total of HKPF, at the most conservative estimate, might agree on such an outrageous claim, this is extremely serious matter.
Furthermore, it is deplorable that related senior officials at the chain of command's upper echelon: Commissioner of Police Mr. Stephen Lo Wai-chung, Secretary for Security Mr. Lai Tung-kwok, Chief Secretary for Administration Mr. Matthew Cheung Kin-chung, and Chief Executive of HKSAR Mr. Leung Chun-ying, so far have not made a statement of formal apology. None of them have borne the blame for their subordinate's remark, or even tendered their resignation out of a sense of shame.
I hereby strongly urge Your Excellency not to play along with HKPF's game of spin, but to demand a formal response from HKSAR.
