#到底我地係咪行緊雨傘條舊路【#AntiELAB Movement vs #UmbrellaMovement: are #HKers walking on the old path?】
5/ Global reach for visiting Taiwan. Heiko Maas criticized with an open letter.t 11 pm on 30 June 2020:
1/ HK's protests have indeed reduced due to the COVID19 and the National Security Law. Hong Kong Government mass arrests protestors, and crackdown on the education, mass media, medical and judicial industries. But, NO, we're not walking the old path of division between different sides in the pro-democracy bloc. In fact, we're winning. Here's why:
2/ In 2014,
- 70% of polls call for the occupation to stop
- Division within Pro-democracy bloc
- Average results in the District Council Election
- Pro-Beijing bloc gained 57% seats in Legislative Council
- CCP's economic diplomacy is doing well
- Few countries support HK
3/ From 2019 till now,
- Pro-democracy bloc swept 85% of the seats in the District Council Election
- it's likely for the pro-democracy bloc to gain more than half of the seats in the Legislative Council Election, which forced the #CCP to cancel the election
Polls did by 香港民意研究計劃 HKPOP request by Reuters showed that
- 70% support an independent investigation committee
- 63% support universal suffrage of the Legislative Council and Chief Executive
- 58% support Carrie Lam to step down
- 56% oppose the riot characterization of the antiELAB Movement
- 49% support the release of the arrested people
- 60% oppose the NationalSecurityLaw
- 31% support the NationalSecurityLaw
- 57% vote for pro-democracy candidates
- 25% vote for pro-government candidates
4/ Normally, public opinion of social movements will reverse after a while, like the #UmbrellaMovement, #BlackLivesMatter and the #YellowVests. But after a year, the majority of public opinion is still on the protestors' side ...
5/ Global reac for visiting Taiwan. Heiko Maas criticized with an open letter.t 11 pm on 30 June 2020:
- Jul 1: over 100k people took to the streets
- Jul 11-12: over 610k people vote in the democratic preliminary election
- Aug 12: 530k copies of 香港蘋果日報 Apple Daily were sold & 282 tocks are sold after Jimmy Lai was arrested
- Aug 27: all HKers dressed in black to say no to the Police rewriting what happened on 21 Jul 2019
- Aug 31: hundreds mourned for the #831PrinceEdwardAttack
6/ Gobal reactions
🇺🇸: Sanctioning HK and CCP officials and change "made in HK" to "made in China"
🇬🇧: Banned the buying of Huawei and offering HKers "lifeboats"
🇦🇺: US-Japan South China Sea military exercise took place in Australia. CCP intimidated journalists in Beijing
🇪🇺: Stop exporting sensitive tech and treat HK the same way as China
🇩🇪: Wang Yi intimidated Czech Senate speaker
Miloš Vystrčil for visiting Taiwan. Heiko Maas criticized with an open letter.
🇫🇷: Forced telcos to ditch @Huawei and announced of won't treat China naively
🇨🇦: Showed no sign of thawing with China. Hostage diplomacy continues to deadlock.
🇯🇵: partnered closely with the Five Eyes and acted tougher after 周庭 Agnes Chow Ting was arrested
🇮🇳: border clashes continued and ditched Chinese mobile apps like WeChat, Alipay and Tik Tok.
🇹🇼: international reputation continued to rise after having the least COVID19 confirmed cases in the world with its anti-pandemic policy
🇭🇰: US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France and Germany ended extradition agreements
7/ #HongKongers have achieved remarkable results fighting against the second-largest, evilest country in the world in just one year. The idea of phoenixism is that we know the chance of winning is low, so we try to increase the costs beard by the #CCP to achieve what we demand.
8/ Everyday we are guided by our thirst for freedom and a sense of duty to bring democracy to our children and grandchildren. So long as we follow that path, we will always be on the right side of history. The island of HK may be small the resolve of its people is anything but.

【外國月亮不是特別圓】
投入國際連結工作好一段時間,有時覺得大家也會期望「外國月亮總是特別圓」,但其實西方國家政治人物支持香港,從來不是理所當然,當中亦會涉及不少商業利益考慮和國際壓力,以及部份左傾政客仍會不知何故地,對中國共產政權抱有良好幻想,這種情況在歐洲較為明顯。
德國左翼黨的國會議員,竟在國會發言表示「理應支持我們在北京的共產朋友」固然讓人大跌眼鏡,尤其是中共從根本地就是循從威權主義和國家資本主義的極右政黨。
有時對於國際政客不理解香港,也是有點無奈,但我們香港作為國際大都會,對於世界各國的抗爭運動,又何嘗不是缺乏足夠理解,只盼在抗爭持續的情況下,香港人能夠繼續努力,讓世界理解我們,與香港同行。
早前睇一份德國國會內嘅辦論,有位Die Linke嘅議員話要支持中共,因為大家都是左翼共產主義支持者,不用分得那麼細。我見內容有所偏頗就寫左篇文。中文翻譯見下文。
Recently, a MP from Die Linke made some remarks about HK, and say they should support CCP as they are friend of Coummunism. I find the claims rather inaccurate hence I wrote this article to provide some rebuttals. Please scroll down for the English translation.
Article in German: https://www.google.com/…/Hongkong-Krise-Pekings-Regierung-b…
近日德國國會內, 一位Die Linke的國會議員Stefan Liebich對香港的事作出評價,這些評價實在令人難以茍同。
Liebich指「Die Linke理應支持我們在北京的共產朋友」。但中國共產黨除了名字內有「共產」兩個字外,其實際行動與共產理念差天共地,實在不是Liebich想像中共產主義的好朋友。
中國共產黨是一個極權,除了擴張政治與經濟勢力外,中國共產黨什麼都不會理會。不論是無產階級的死活,或者是工人階級,對於中國共產黨來說只是擴張實力的工具,隨時可以為了經濟或政治利益犧牲或捨棄。 中國共產黨實質上是由一群搜刮民脂民膏致富而滿肚腸肥的黨員領導。中國共產黨甚至對自己的人民進行全天候的監控,打壓、拘捕異見人士。
由此可見,中國共產黨本質上是一個極右政黨,而非Liebich以為的左翼。 北京政府不是以共產理念管治中華人民共和國,反而是以物質主義操縱國民。中國背後並沒有一套穩固的價值觀支撐,唯有金錢才是中國人和中國政府信仰的理念。中國的任何行動,從來都不是由價值推動,而總是由金錢和利益推動。
中國共產黨只是一個「掛羊頭賣狗肉」的「共產」黨,它相當擅長扮演共產主義的支持者,與Liebeich想像中「馬克思主義的的同路人」相差甚遠。我們應該要小心分辨真正的共產主義者與打著共產主義旗號行惡的政權之間的分別。
Leibich亦在發言時提到八國聯軍與相關歷史,指「香港被英國以軍事手段從中國手中搶去。撇除對於中國的批評,我們樂見不公義的殖民主義完結」。但現實上,清朝是被當時被視為外族的滿洲人統治。當時的「中國」與今天我們認知的中華人民共和國並不是同一個國家。所以,Leibich所指的「香港被英國不公義的殖民」,其實嚴格來說是鴉片戰爭後,香港的管治權從滿洲人手中交到英國人手中。
清朝末期發生申亥革命,中華民國成立。及後因國共內戰,中華民國政府輾轉於1949年12月撤退至臺灣。如果按照Leibich的邏輯,香港主權理應是移交予中華民國政府,而非中華人民共和國。
另外,香港人本來擁有聯合國1960年在《給予殖民地國家和人民獨立宣言》中賦予非自治領土人民自決前途的權利。但因為中國強烈反對港澳被定義為殖民地,而應為「被英國和葡萄牙當局佔領的中國領土的一部分」。中國代表單方面宣稱港澳的地位,都屬中國主權範圍內,甚至指:「聯合國並沒有權討論這些問題。」最後才令香港再名單中被除名,失去前途自決的權利。
而觀乎而今情況,即使香港主權移交予中國後,不公義不但沒有消失,反而更加明顯與嚴重。Leibeich在發言時指「撇除對於中國的批評,我們樂見不公義的殖民主義完結」,我很希望,他不是指他將無視數以百萬計的少數民族關押在在教育營當中、六四屠城死去的學生、香港早前被實彈近距離射中的兩位男孩、被24小時監控的中國人、捨生取義爭取人權的香港人,而去支持中國共產黨只因其聲稱自己是「共產主義者」。
人權自由是人類文明近百年來的基石,中國共產黨的行為,與絕大部分我們珍視的政治價值並不相容。在任何情況下,我們都不可能支持一個獨裁的殺人政權。
Recently, in the German Bundestag, Stefan Liebich made a few remarks regarding Hong Kong. Mr. Liebeich says his party Der Linke should support their communist friends in Beijing. “Logisch, dass Der Linke Liebich seinen Kommunistenfreunden in Peking wieder den Rücken stärkt.(It is logical that Die Linke Liebich should again support his communist friends in Beijing.)” In my point of view, the Chinese Communist Party is just a party named itself as the “Communist”, what it does in China or in the world is in no way communistic.
PRC is a dictatorship that only takes the expansion of its economic and political power into regard, workers or its people are at its disposal whenever it sees fit. The “Communist” party cares neither about the people, nor the grassroots, it only cares about the economic benefit it gains from its business activities inside and outside PRC. The party leaders are all sitting in their offices with their pockets full of what they gain from exploiting the Chinese workers.
They carry mass surveillance 24/7 throughout China, arrests and detain descendants. Frankly speaking, the CCP is rather right than left.
The Peking Government is not running Communism, but materialism. The only thing the Chinese and the Chinese government worship is the dollar sign, nothing else. They do not take any values or ideology into account. The people are not motivated by values or beliefs, but by the economic benefits they see.
The CCP is not a communist party as Mr. Leibich conceived it is. The CCP is very good at creating the illusion that it represents the Marxist ideas. We should be very careful in examining the differences between those who claim to be communists and those who are communists.
Mr. Leibich also made reference to the history of the Eight-Nation Alliance in the late Qing Dynasty, saying that“ Auch Hongkong ist durch die britische Armee militärisch China abgepresst worden.(Hong Kong has been militarily squeezed out of China by the British army.)” and “Bei aller notwendigen Kritik an der chinesischen KP sagen ich: Es ist gut, dass dieses koloniale Unrecht zu Ende ist. (Despite all the necessary criticism of the Chinese Communist Party, I say: It is good that this colonial injustice has come to an end.)”
It is worth clarifying that during that time of History, China was ruled by the Manchus, who were considered as foreigners at the time. China at the time was not the Republic of China we know today. Therefore, Hong Kong was not military squeezed out of PRC but was being colonized by the British in substitution of the Manchus at that time.
Historically speaking, the successor of the Qing Dynasty is the Republic of China, which later was relocated to Taiwan due to the Civil War between 1927 and 1949. And Mr. Leibich’s claim that it is good that colonial injustice has come to an end is inaccurate, too. In this case, Hong Kong, ought to be returned to Taiwan (the Republic of China) but not China (People’s Republic of China), to end the colonial injustice.
What is more, Hong Kongers were supposed to be able to exercise our right to self-determination and really being able to be free from colonialism. Yet Hong Kong was actually removed from the U.N. list of Non-Self-Governing Territories upon PRC’s request.
And clearly, under PRC’s rule, injustice is more than just apparent in Hong Kong currently. Mr. Leibich’s remarks of “despite all the necessary criticism of the Chinese Communist Party”, I truly hope that he is not suggesting that one would neglect the millions of ethnic minorities being detained in re-education camps, those who died in the JuneForth Masaccare, the two young Hong Kong boys who were shot by live rounds, the Chinese who were placed under surveillance 24/7 and all my fellow Hong Konger who are fighting for fundamental rights with their lives, but support the CCP’s action because it claims to be a communist party.
I see of no reason, why anyone should support a dictatorship that would brutally murder its own people. CCP is totally going against what most political ideologies in the world stand for, and I do believe we can all agree on the fundamental rights of all members of the human family that ought to be respected as that is the foundations of human civilization.

《 關鍵評論專欄 l 敦睦艦隊與太平洋的風 》
隨著台美關係日趨緊密,美國國務卿龐畢歐(Mike Pompeo)多次釋放友台訊息,美國國會包括「台灣保證法」等友台法案一個接一個出爐,網路上瞬間支持蔡英文政府外交政策的聲量大增。身為一位外交人員,我當然是感到開心的。但振奮歸振奮,外交這檔事還是得回歸事實(facts)再來評論,方不致於失真。
例如這幾天新聞上說:美軍在帛琉進行軍事演習,我國敦睦艦隊訪問帛琉剛好巧遇美軍(有的新聞媒體用「見證」一詞)。好幾個中文新聞媒體,以及臉書上幾個有關國際事務的粉專同溫層(例如「美國政治觀察」粉專),都提到了這個新聞。霎時間,感覺好像台灣跟美國即將在帛琉進行聯合軍事演習,真是興奮!
相信我,我也很希望這是真的,但事實上卻不然。美軍的確在帛琉進行演習(4月14日至19日),我國敦睦艦隊的確也將造訪帛琉(4月18日至20日),兩者時間的確重疊,但,很抱歉讓各位失望了,這兩者之間沒有任何關聯。
2015年至2017年期間我在駐帛琉大使館服務,兩年期間跟著大使努力鞏固邦交,其中印象深刻的是協助敦睦艦隊(Fleet of Friendship)的造訪。「敦睦艦隊」的全名是「敦睦遠航訓練支隊」,它事實上就是高雄海軍官校的畢業航訓,也就是讓大四的應屆畢業生,實際藉由這趟遠航驗收四年的學習成果。這趟畢業航訓可不輕鬆,除了環島之外,也會造訪拉丁美洲或太平洋等地的邦交國。我國敦睦艦隊造訪帛琉,正是這個背景的產物。
有看到重點了嗎?大四應屆畢業生。如果真的是台美聯合軍事演習這類何等重大的演訓,怎麼可能派還沒正式掛軍士官階的大四學生上場呢?
但可別誤會我說敦睦艦隊不重要,它事實上有一定重要性。第一,它代表軍艦進入他國12浬內的領海停泊。以這次帛琉為例,我國三艘軍艦分別是磐石號、武昌號以及田單號,一共約有750名軍官士兵。根據聯合國海洋法公約(United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, UNCLOS)規定,軍艦進入他國領海必須連續(continuous)且快速(expeditious)通過,這稱為「無害通過」(innocent passage),至於要不要事先跟當事國報備在實務上則有不同。敦睦艦隊代表著我國軍隊進入並使用帛琉港口(Malakal港)設施,當然有政治及軍事上的意義,其中最重要的當然就是友誼及信任。這也是敦睦艦隊的造訪被稱為「親善訪問」(goodwill visit)的原因。根據記錄,這次將是我國敦睦艦隊第十四次造訪帛琉。
第二個重要性很特別,大概沒幾個人知道。位在高雄的海軍官校從2016年起每年提供帛琉學生兩個全額獎學金名額,照時間推算下來,2019年的四月這些學生正就讀大三,換言之,如果沒意外的話,明年(2020)如果敦睦艦隊再次造訪帛琉,就會看到我國軍艦上有兩名帛琉大四應屆畢業生光榮返國(帛琉)。想想這該是多麽令人感動的畫面啊!(大概類似早期我國南部家境清寒學生考上台大,四年後光榮畢業的畫面吧!)
談完敦睦艦隊,讓我們回過頭談美軍在帛琉的聯合軍事演習。
沒錯,這的確是重要的。但先釐清一下,所謂「聯合軍事演習」,指的是「美國軍方」跟「帛琉警方」,因為帛琉沒有軍隊。
讓我們先簡單回顧一下帛琉歷史。帛琉在1994年正式從美國託管地獨立為一個國家,但在1982年時帛琉、馬紹爾群島(Marshall Islands)及密克羅尼西亞聯邦(Federal States of Micronesia, FSM)這三個國家與美國陸續談判並簽署「自由聯合協定」(Compact of Free Association, COFA)。在COFA之下,帛琉的國防由美軍協防,所以帛琉自己沒有軍隊。COFA是一個非常特別的國際協定,例如藉由這個建制,每年美國內政部的島嶼事務辦公室(Office of Insular Affairs, OIA)提供可觀的財務援助給帛琉。
當我在帛琉服務時,的確見過美軍在島上行動,但嚴格來說,是比較接近工兵團的性質,負責一些基礎建設的維修。這個美軍工兵團人數不多,直接向美國駐帛琉大使館報告。有時候我會在餐廳或酒吧遇到他們,也會閒聊幾句。
而這次真正的美軍回到帛琉進行軍事演習,事隔三十七年,上一回得追溯到1982年(彼時這三個太平洋國家正在跟美國談判COFA條件)。從這個意義上而言,的確顯現它的重要性。一個合理的解釋是,在美國川普政府的印太戰略下,美軍藉此展現對帛琉或第二島鏈的重視,才會在三十七年後的今日再度派駐美國陸軍造訪帛琉。
而這次的美軍演習,事實上是美軍「太平洋通道」(Pacific Pathways)的五場演習之一,另外四場為美泰的年度陸軍演習「哈奴曼衛士」(Hanuman Guardian)、美泰大型軍演「金色眼鏡蛇」(Cobra Gold)、美菲的Salaknib演習及美菲「肩並肩」(Balikatan)。這次帛琉軍演的地點在Ngeremlengui州,約有200名美軍及50名帛琉警力參加,另外美國陸軍第十八醫療司令部也會在帛琉的兩個主要離島貝里琉(Peliliu)及安佳(Anguar)執行人道援助。
值得注意的是,根據美軍的說法,這次演習的目的為:增加美國陸軍的存在,得到位置優勢,重新確保美國的安全承諾,並增加美軍太平洋司令部(USARPAC)在此區域的存在。我個人認為,重點正是最後這句話:增加美軍太平洋司令部在此區域的存在。這句話說給誰聽?我想是中國。
(原文為:The focus of these events is to increase U.S. Army presence, gain positional advantage and reassure U.S. security commitments while increasing the USARPAC presence in the region,”)
順帶一提,美軍演習的地點為Ngeremlengui州(帛琉共十六個州),這個州發音很難,我兩年還念不標準。它位於帛琉大島(Babeldaob)的西岸,人口三百多人,距離帛琉市區科羅(Koror)大概車程40分鐘。為什麼要特別提它的地理位置呢?因為我國的敦睦艦隊停在Malakal港口,跟Ngeremlengui相較,位於科羅的另一邊。從Malakal港開車到科羅市區,大概十分鐘車程。意思是,敦睦艦隊跟美軍演習的地點,完全不相干。
爬梳完了這些新聞的事實,回過頭想想,敦睦艦隊有巧遇或見證在帛琉演習的美軍嗎?我想是沒有的。這兩件事情,一個代表台帛邦誼穩固,一個代表美國強化區域安全角色決心,兜在一塊很牽強。不過退一步想,太平洋的風很怡人,也許有時候,我們也不必那麼追究了吧!
