Exploring Deserted Japanese Restaurant

An avid urban explorer ventures into a deserted Japanese Restaurant.

The 5-storey building was completed in 1968. The restaurant occupied the first 2 storeys in a
traditional shophouse design and opened in 2014. 2 large paper lanterns would greet
customers at the entrance. A sushi bar was located on the ground floor. The eclectic use
of bright accent colours and dark wood features made it a Instagram-worthy visit.

An internal wooden staircase provides access to the first floor where there are draped booths
and a special VIP room towards the front. It has been deserted for a while and tableware
and other items are scattered throughout the restaurant.

Liberate Queen's Road Central - Campaign for Pedestrianisation

A proposal to pedestrianise Queen's Road Central moved into a new gear as campaigners took to the
streets on Thursday to introduce the idea to pedestrians and businesses along the street.

The proposal, taken to Transport Department a year ago, involves closing the road to motor vehicles
from Theatre Lane to Queen Victoria Street; and creating Green Loading Zones to encourage non-
motorised vehicles, such as cargo bikes and trolleys, to replace vans and small trucks.

Transport Department has now passed the idea to Home Affairs Department, and says the idea
needs buy-in from local businesses to proceed.

The campaign group visited Theatre Lane to share the idea, build support and learn stakeholders'
views. The group includes: James Ockenden, editor of Transit Jam and producer of Wham Bam
Tram; Paul Zimmerman, district councillor, vice-chair of the Southern District Council and long-
time walkability campaigner; Martin Turner, chairman of the Hong Kong Cycling Alliance; and
Wong Ho Fai, an adventurer who ran over 3,250km across Japan with a stroller.

Wong Ho Fai led pedestrians in a fun "Red Light Yoga", while campaigners collected signatures for
a mailing list to build support for the idea.

'Many cities around the world are replacing smaller vans and trucks with cargo bikes, and if Hong Kong
wants to achieve Carrie Lam's ambitious carbon targets we will need to do the same. Green Loading
Zones would enable more space for pedestrians and bikes while keeping the Queen's Road Central
lifeblood flowing, it's a win win win for people, business and the environment," said Ockenden. 'Queen's
Road Central is a failed street. Police run sporadic enforcement campaigns but a design change could
deliver a much better, healthier use of space than idling Alphards and illegally parked luxury cars.'

Many European cities have begun a switch to cargo bikes instead of vans. In London, van traffic has
risen 71% over 20 years, and a "Bikes for Business" group, with 400 members, aim to replace
15% of deliveries from diesel to cargo bike.

Exquisite Tiles and Grille at Deserted Pre-War Shophouse

An avid urban explorer ventures into a deserted Pre-War Tong Lau (Chinese tenement building).

The building was completed in 1932. It has 4 storeys of 2 units each with a nett area of 997-1,199 sq ft.
It is a typical Shophouse with a ground floor shop and upper dwellings. The building is built in neo-
classical style. On the outer wall of each balcony, there are 2 Ionic columns. A triangular pediment
is on the roof, engraved with the year of construction "1932", and the staircase has exquisite
floor tiles and an arched pediment with decorative metal grille. It is very unique, combining
the architectural elements of ancient Greek and Roman design.

It was rated as a Grade I historic building in 2011, yet in 2018 it was approved to re-develop into
a 25-storey commercial and residential building, which is really regrettable.

Journalist Assn Condemned Police for Taking Reporter to Assist Investigation
But Cautioned, House Searched & Travel Doc Retained


Under the National Security Law, red lines are everywhere. Journalists reporting might cross the red line?

Hong Kong Journalists Association (HKJA) stated that a reporter was asked to assist the National
Security Department of the police in investigating the police stabbing case on July 1 this year.
However, on Monday (26th) her house was searched, all travel documents were retained and
a cautionary statement was given. Barrister Stephen Char said that the police have the
responsibility to explain whether the reporter is a suspect or a witness.

According to reports, a former reporter from Vision Times conducted a live broadcast on 1 July
at the scene of the crime. The police later contacted several reporters including her. The reporter,
accompanied by a lawyer arranged by the Journalist Association, went to Police Headquarters in
Wanchai the day after to make a statement. The police promised at the time that if there is a
need to contact her in the future, they would do so through her lawyer and would also inform
HKJA. The police also stated that the status of the reporter was "assisting in investigations."

At 11 pm last night, the National Security Office suddenly went to the reporter's temporary
residence, asked her to make another statement and searched the premises. The police had
reneged on their promise by failing to contact her through her lawyer or informing HKJA.

The reporter, accompanied by the staff of the National Security Office, later called her lawyer stating
that she did not need a lawyer. She was then taken back to her original residence for a search.

HKJA understands that the reporter has been given a cautionary statement and her travel documents have
been detained. Ronsen Chan, chairman of HKJA, confirmed that the police had told the reporter's lawyer
that the reporter was currently "assisting an investigation" and did not refer to her as a suspect. He also said
that a police officer had used inappropriate remarks to make the reporter give up contacting her lawyer.

HKJA issued statement late last night condemning the police, saying that 'the reporter who videoed a
suspected crime during the live broadcast was merely fulfilling her duty as a journalist, and that she
had also done her civic duty to assist the police in the investigation. She should have received recognition
and should have been treated like this. Would anyone serving as a witness or who might serve as a witness
be at risk of having their travel documents confiscated?' And once again emphasized that 'this incident is
equivalent to threatening all journalists in Hong Kong. If by recording incidents, one would also
cast suspicion on oneself, how could reporters continue to work with peace of mind?'

Char said: Strange, the police did not arrest her but have the right to seize the documents? Assisting
in investigation is not a legal term and is very vague. Is she a witness or a suspect? Police must
make it clear. If one is a witness, police have no right to retain one's documents.

Exploring Ruins of Deserted Mansion at Mid-Levels

An avid urban explorer ventures into the ruins of an deserted mansion at Mid-Levels.

The mansion was built in 1922-23. It was a 2-storey building in an elegant Italian Renaissance style,
with a commanding view of the Victoria Harbour. The Mansion has been demolished, and only the
stone staircases, tennis court and Roman-style columns remain. You can still glimpse the lavish
grandeur of the past. There are a lot of graffiti on the walls and vines entwine the columns.

Shun Tak Kui - Historic Hakka Mansion in Yuen Long

Shun Tak Kui, commonly known as Big Leung House, was built in 1934. It took over 2 years and $20,000
to complete. Located in Shung Ching San Tsuen, Sap Pat Heung, Yuen Long, it is a villa built by Hakka
Indonesian overseas Chinese Leung Kan-sen. It was listed as a Grade I historic building in 2009.

The mansion is a 2-house 2-storey rectangular residential building with a central open courtyard. In
1936 and 1956 respectively, single-storey wings were added to the left and right sides. It covers an
area of over 1,000 square metres and consists of 32 large rooms. The solid structural walls were built
with lime-mixed cement and 2 columns supporting the fir rafters and Chinese-style tiled sloping roof.

The front of the mansion is decorated with carved fascia and frescoes. The couplet at the door
"Speak cautiously and morals first" encourages descendents to speak carefully and cultivate noble
morals. It is the only existing Meixian-style Hakka mansion in Shap Pat Heung. In 1957, Leung ran
a school in the mansion to provide education for children of the villagers until the completion of
Shung Ching Primary School nearby in 1960. It is still a gathering place for villagers to this day.

Liu Xiao-bo Statue at Chickeeduck Store to Commemorate His Passing 4 Years On

July 13 marks the 4th anniversary of the death of Liu Xiao-bo, the Nobel Peace laureate
and Chinese dissident. Members of the League of Social Democrats (LSD) marched
to the Chinese Liaison Office in Western District to demand the release of all political
prisoners in China. "Under the shadow of the National Security Law, Hong Kong's
One Country, Two Systems no longer exist," LSD declared.

Chickeeduck Art Life Department Store, Tin Hau branch displays a statue of Liu Xiao-bo
outside the store from July 15. The owner Herbert Chow pointed out that the statue
was originally owned by LSD. They wanted to find a long-term location. After being
contacted by Tsang Kin-shing (The Bull), Chow agreed to provide a spot
outside the Tin Hau branch.

Chow said that on the fourth anniversary of Liu Xiao-bo’s death recently, the display of Liu's
statute is meaningful. He said: "Nowadays, lots are banned, many are scared...
Liu Xiao-bo is a Nobel laureate and a model of a Chinese person who pursues democracy
and peace is worthy of support.” Chow said, “I think even Xi Jin-ping should respect him.”

The statue was displayed starting at 2 pm and has not yet been interfered with by the Hong
Kong government or the police. It is 1.7 m long, 0.7 m wide, 1.8 m high, weighs about
100 lb and is made of fibreglass. Chow said that the statue is sun- and rain-proof,
and it is very suitable to be placed outside the Tin Hau store, which is consistent
with the store's support for freedom and democracy plus its support for local artists.

Exploring Abandoned 360-Year-old Village

An avid urban explorer ventures into an abandoned village founded in 1660.

About 20 ancient houses were built here in rows overlooking the paddy fields once terraced with
rice and sugar crops. The area was settled by the Lee clan in the 17th year of Shunzhi Emperor
during the Qing Dynasty.

In the 1950s, iron mines were opened nearby. As a consequence, the water table of the village was
lowered and the land became unsuitable for cultivation, forcing many farmers to abandon their land.

Only bats remain at the village. They hang from the roof of a back-row house. All houses are derelict,
some with personal items and furniture scattered around. Some roofs have collapsed. The whole
village is overgrown with bushes and vines, giant spiders abound.

Exploring Deserted TV Studios

An avid urban explorer ventures into deserted TV studios.

A 4-storey dyeing factory in a compound of 65,000 sq ft was converted into TV studios and became
deserted since 2007. It quickly became popular amongst urban explorers and graffiti artists, who
have covered every wall of the building with their artwork. In 2015, police claimed to have
uncovered a bomb-making scheme that operated out of the building, and security has
been tightened up ever since. There are also rumours that it’s haunted.

The rusting, sun-faded vintage logo on the facade serves as the only reminder of the former TV
company which was shut down on 1 April 2015. It failed as news programme broadcast
were deemed by some observers to have taken on a pro-Beijing bias, reporting news
involving pro-democracy political forces in Hong Kong in a negative light.

Renaissance style. The most distinctive feature is the octagonal turret tower, with an ogee shaped
roof and a lantern shaped ventilator at the apex, at the north-east corner. The tower complements
the building’s other classical features such as the coupled Doric columns and entablature along
the front verandah.

The building also displays Art Deco features in the ornamental ironwork of the railings and the balustrading
to the verandahs and balconies and the curved staircase at the south-west corner. There are traces of
oriental influence in the ornamental lanterns on top of the posts to the verandah balustrades. The
architectural features of this Mansion are rarely found in private residences.

It has been a Grade III historic building since 2005.

Victoria Park Sealed on CCP's Centenary Reveals Beijing & Hong Kong Govt's Infinite Fear of Citizens

On July 1 every year since 2003, there has always been a massive protest march on the streets in Hong
Kong, with tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people. Last year, the July 1 march was
banned for the first time, but thousands of citizens still took to the streets spontaneously. This year,
as the political atmosphere took a turn for the worse, the Civil Human Rights Front (CHRF) convener
Figo Chan has been imprisoned. For the first time in 18 years, the CHRF did not apply to host the July 1
march. The League of Social Democrats and other groups wished to take over hosting a parade, but
the police issued a letter of objection. Since the implementation of the National Security Law, the
freedom of assembly in Hong Kong has existed in name only.

Most of the CHRF marches started from Victoria Park. Today, the police sealed off football fields 1 to 6
and the central lawn of Victoria Park at noon, quoting public security regulations, to prevent banned
public gatherings. The closed area is the same as that on June 4 to prevent the candlelight vigil. It is
illegal for anyone to enter or stay in Victoria Park without permission which may result in
imprisonment for 12 months.

Today is also the 100th anniversary of the Communist Party of China. A large-scale celebration was
held in Beijing in the morning, and Hong Kong is also celebrating on a high note.

On the 24th anniversary of Hong Kong’s transfer of sovereignty and the centenary of the Communist
Party of China, everyone should be jubilant. Yet, as the former police John Lee has ascended as Chief
Secretary of Hong Kong, 10,000 police are deployed, and Victoria Park sealed off to prevent peaceful
assembly of citizens, exposing Beijing and the Hong Kong regime's infinite fear of the people.

Hong Kong has officially become a police state.
