#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.

#Crux 點解可以等於 #戲肉
//• The crux of Hong Kong's crisis is Beijing's excessive emphasis on "one country" over "two systems". 香港危機的癥結,就是北京過分着重 「#一國」#先於「#兩制」。//

Crux 與「戲肉」
許多事故、每 個爭議,都會有個中心點。這個癥結 所在,英文叫 the crux of the matter。
曾多次聽到有人把 crux 講成crust,這肯定是錯的。Crust 是指任 何物體硬的外層,像a thin crust of snow;而bread crust,就是 我們口語的麵包「皮」。
Crux,拉丁文中指十字,但與宗教的十字架無關,用於英文,解作困難difficulty 或puzzle 疑團, 包含一點在十字路口 (crossroads)徘徊的意思。
• The rule of law should have been the crux of democracy. 法治精神原應是民主制度的 核心。
• The crux of Hong Kong's crisis is Beijing's excessive emphasis on "one country" over "two systems". 香港危機的癥結,就是北京過分着重 「一國」先於「兩制」。
• The crux of Hong Kong's problems is that we need true universal suffrage — minus Beijing's power to screen out candidates who are politically "unfit" in its eyes. 香港問題的 核心,是我們要有真普選—— 除去北京可篩走政治「不適當」候選人的權力。
• The crux of the trial is his whereabouts at the time of the murder. 這場審訊的重點,是謀殺發生之際,他到底身在何處。
• Never mind the wedding ceremony. The crux is do you really love her ? 不必理會婚禮。重點是,你愛她嗎?
也有許多人用heart 心臟來代替crux,以示重要、中心部位,a critical, central point:the heart of the matter。
• Let's stop arguing superficially and get to the heart of the matter. 我們停止表面的爭 執,直接談問題的核心吧。
• Sigh. As expected, money was at the hear t of the matter. 唉!一如所料,講到底也不過是為了錢。
留意以上這句,譯做中文不必 用上重點、癥結、核心之類的 詞語,用回我們的常用語更能達意。
中英文一樣,不管寫作或說 話,最好避免重複用同樣的字。 在英語寫作中,懂得用同義詞 synonyms 非常重要。
譬如說,不想重複crux 或 heart of the matter,可以簡單改說the focus、the focal point 焦點。
• We mustn't digress. We must stick to the focus of the matter. 大家不可離題,必須專注事件的焦點。
更好的說法,可以是:
• We mustn't digress. Let's focus on what really matters. 視乎上文下理,crux 的同義詞另有core 核心、essence 精粹 及gist 主旨。
• Cash flow often lies at the core of the small shop's problems. 資金周轉不靈老是這家小店的最大問題。
• Don't tell me everything. I just need to know the essence/ gist of their argument. 不用什 麼都告訴我。我只要知道他們 論點的撮要/ 重點。
留意上述essence 及gist 的 用法,主旨是不必囉嗦,把重點 「一句過」說明就好。最後還有 許多人都未必知道的:
Meat of the matter,一樣解作事件主題、核心或重點。為什麼會用到meat 肉呢?這 個,也許記得我們口語中「戲肉」的肉就好。

universal suffrage中文 在 一個平凡醫學生的日常。 Facebook 的最佳解答
A good read, I only have two comments
(1) Joshua Wong may be the face of the protest (Legislative councillor Roy Kwong perhaps more so), but not its leader
(2) The protest does not merely extend to calling for resignation of Chief Executive Carrie Lam, but also much more - the five demands and universal suffrage - any change in leadership without procedural legitimacy and accountability to the people is useless
