再續”Officers, are you really working?


剛才在一則有關香港政府要動用區議會把香港市民的公共空間出賣給地產業主的新聞中討論。其中一個網友回應,時代廣場大電視的聲浪大到震耳程度,而且都是在為地產商在公眾空間用聲浪賺取廣告收益。我又想返起D政府和區議會D岸9野。


話說我遇過一班退休阿伯,D音樂樂器玩得出神入化,得閒在公園JAM音樂消遣,一D都唔嘈,雖然個公園好靜,但只要行開兩步,五米以外已經聽唔清楚 佢地的 音樂了。但玩左一個鐘,就見D公園實KILL來趕人。公園告示話不能騷擾別人,但有沒有定下什麼才是騷規則?五米?二十米?二十分貝?給公眾一個規則等人 去守,有D世藝搞下會死嗎?一刀切禁止,公園乜都唔讓D公公和後生的做,只准路過,咁就叫管理?乜都唔使做了,使鬼花稅金請你來管?D財團地產商就在公眾 地方嘈到隔離幾座樓D人都得,D弱勢社群就小心翼翼都不能在公園跟三五同好娛樂,搞搞街頭文娛,給呢個政府同D區議員趕絕。


D建制派區議員經常說人們可以到其他沒人的地方搞街頭表現,但實際上香港有邊度可以?他們經常說他們不知,但只要不要在他們當區議員的地方,結果全香港所有有區議員的區都不可以!即是全港都不可以!痴線!!


成日話讓一個人在某區做街頭藝術,就會有三百三千三萬個人來某條街某公園出現表演。呢D低能的政棍,死左對香港有利,呢D人邊有能力治區,治港?我 想說, 什麼時候香港街頭的足球場籃球場乒乓球枱會有幾百幾千人爆場玩的?從來不會。為什麼?人太多時D人見到會走,選過第二個場,又或者第二個時間玩嘛!江湖規 矩,先到先得,永遠不會出現爆場的。呢D先至係社會常識Y嘛。


我地D委任和民建聯D區議員係乜野外星人來咖,咁簡單的社會常識都冇,竟然嚇D市民會有三千三萬人來阻街,呢D一個二個都係葉劉靈魂附體,七到冇朋友。


給一個公園或是一條街,任由D市民在一定的規定下進行街頭表演,在外國是可以形成一個旅遊業賣點來咖。而且也是一個文化發展的搖籃地。香港政府一天 到晚說 要發展旅遊業,又話要起西九發展本土藝術,講Q咁多,佢地識乜?你開一個偏遠一點的公園又好,開一條街又好,咁咪又有旅遊點,又有藝術發展囉。定好一條規 則,不准超過一定分貝,有規有矩,市民又有得HAPPY。三萬人會來逼爆場?誰再說就叫他去麥花臣球場罰企一星期,在那裡學一些社會常識啦,了解民間實 情。在香港,斷唔會藝術家多過波友吧。呢個政府,都係乜都唔識做。乜野常識都沒有。那些民建聯的區議員,跟那些委任議員,跟私人業主法團糾纏不清,利益互 相輸送,一日到黑只懂勾結有錢人,欺負小市民

在旺角嘉禾大厦大火中殉職的兩名消防員,今天被政府追頒最高的金英勇勳章。無論怎麼說,這兩名消防員真的很偉大,可是,我們香港不需要這樣的英雄。


今次的五級火災,有很多地方都跟十二年前的嘉利大厦五級火災有相同之處。同樣是大厦低層的娛樂場所莽顧大厦內的人命安全沒有安裝好防火和防煙設備。 一個慘痛的教訓之後,當時政府說詞人手不足,改善要慢慢來,怎料一慢就用了超過十年時間來立法,然後到了去年還要設立了什麼幾年的寬限期給業主慢慢來。事 情還不只這樣,一位消防員曾在大火後打電話到電台的節目,告訴主持人政府內部還有一個長達六年的寬容期,每一個違規個案要經過六年消防署才可以依條例採取 正式行動,但很多那些大業主都會在六年期滿之前把物業出手,所有消防隊在六年內的工作變成「白做」,又要對新業主由第一年的程序開始做起。現在,政府這樣 「得到業主和商戶達成共識」的施政,還要犠牲多少生命,製造多少「英雄」後,才算是對業主和商人寬容得足夠?這些寬容,十多年來的寬容已被證實是建立在消 耗人命上了。


另一方面, 這次事件也揭露了香港消防隊的裝備超過十年沒有更新,追不上世界標準。消防員是用他們的生命在火場為市民搏命的,試問這些裝備錢政府怎可以慳,不讓消防員 在得到最安全的器材支援下上陣的?香港政府是不是已窮到要他們在這種裝備的支援下拼命?請問政府還準備好了多少英勇勲章,頒給那些因為這個政府「善財難 捨」而製造出來的英雄?


這兩位消防員不是單純地因為他們的英勇而離世。他們是因為特區政府對自己的寬容,對商家財主的寬容,才會成了「被英雄」人物。他們雖然偉大,可是我情願他們不用「被英雄」,而繼續留在他們的家人身邊,留在他們的同事身邊,活蹦亂跳地作普通的活人。

北京奧運閉幕禮中,按照過往慣例,給下一届的主辦城市一些參與時間。沒想到,就這八分鐘,就使部份中國人神經錯亂了。


閉幕禮完結,國內和香港有些網頁出現了一些讚美倫敦表演的評論。於是馬上刺激了「理性中國人」的神經,紛紛高唱北京奧運開幕閉幕禮盛大倫敦奧運必不能比,抨擊讚美倫敦表演的人「崇洋媚外」,嘲笑倫敦那8分鐘表現拙劣,又貼出BBC網站上批評倫敦表演的網上留言。


那麼多年來,我看奧運無論是哪國是主辦國,表演的水準如何,客人的國家都一定在表演之後多番讚許,各地的媒體的「震撼」都必定在文章中少不了。大家不妨多翻以前歷屆各地的新聞報導。


花了別人國家數百億的金錢,那些金錢本來是可以用來搞好民生建設,卻撥出來給其他國家的人是去享受,是好是醜,只要不犯上原則性的問題,禮貌上其他國家當然要讚美一番。 這是一種義理上的感恩。


要知道現在很多有錢的發達國家的市民不希望自己的城市辦奧運,甚至是反對。原因不是他們的城市或國家是否富有,而是很多人都認為辦奧運會影響他們的 社會建設和福利。從來沒有一個主辦城市在辦奧運後不經歷一定程度的經濟蕭條。主辦城市籌款是很困難的,試想想,如果倫敦市政府要求愛丁堡或是格拉斯歌的市 政府出資協助,又或是要求英國國會利用庫房的錢結算,會如何被其他城市和英國選民白眼?當年加拿大滿地可奧運後满地可市政府還了三十年債。掏別人的腰包, 自己享受了,試問當客人的國家怎能少給半句讚美?


沒錯,倫敦是不可能像中國那樣大款。很簡單,中國的閉幕禮和開幕禮英國人是讚口不絕,花別人的錢笑呵呵是正常。但是如果同樣的場面出現在倫敦奧運, 英國人會同樣地高興嗎?答案一定是”不”。不要說高興,我相信市政府還會被英國人罵得妻兒子女的眼耳口鼻都認不出來。那個市長別想再連任。這個時候,即使 立場和政見不同,即使真的有人「崇洋媚外」,也當任由他們去讚美。即使自己真的覺得別人的表演不好看,至少也該說一句「多謝,辛苦了」,這才是知書識禮的 文明風範。


中國自己喜歡動作全國的資金人力物力搞氣派,花人民的大款出做排場是中國自家的事,別人一個市政府可也是辛辛苦苦的辦奧運,中國人聽了別國的讚美沾 沾自喜沒問題,但聽到別的中國人讚美倫敦的表演就什麼「崇洋媚外」的帽子四處扣,還要嘲笑別的主辦城市的辛勞,惡意攻擊,如果這還不是中國人不識大體,沒 常識沒有氣量沒有禮貌的表現的話,什麼才是呢。


照我所見,中國人既然沒有氣量去看別人辦奧運,什麼都要自己天下第一,聽不下別國的人被讚美,不如中國多辦三、四届奧運,免去其他城市之苦,造福國 際社會,自己又可以多聽些喜歡聽的吹棒,何樂而不為呢。 只要以後不要再找香港做協辦城市花香港人的血汗錢,中國辦多少次奧運我都支持。

颱風危害飛機升降安全,昨天暴風襲港,早上和下午的民航機班次取消了。旅客因為天氣要滯留機場,這是何等平常的事?旅客找機場的人投訴就可以立即起飛安全回家嗎? 你不怕死別要機組人員陪你一起死。



颱風過了,飛機可以安全升降,但延誤的班次多,出發先後還得有個秩序,不可能都同時出發,而且還要在原來擠得密麻麻的時間表中按步一班一班追加出發班次,輪候的時間一定比平日長,輪候的人也一定多,但旅客也得排隊等辦手續。不要說飛機場,颱風後就是我們要立即乘車上班的,車站排隊的人龍也特別長,馬路也特別擠塞了。為這種事吵鬧有什麼益處?難道是內地人不會排隊,所以排個隊就要鬧事了?



香港營運國際空港多少年了?我過往從來沒聽說颱風後機場被旅客大鬧,要出動警員到場維持秩序的新聞。上次颱風過後,機場鬧得要警員出動,記者在一旁,我們觀眾都看見其實只是說普通話的女人瘋狂地因航空公司不為她安排酒店而把職員罵得狗血淋頭。但那是賣便宜機票的公司,哪有像機票價錢貴一倍的航空公司會為滯留乘客安排酒店?



今次颱風又出什麼新聞呢?照舊投訴滿門,但沒有叫警察,看上去沒有什麼新聞價值,不過記者們要多謝一位哥兒,說出了個炮彈,昨晚電視上又有新聞了。





其實,以前英國佬真的沒有特別輸送過好東西關照香港,但香港什麼時候完蛋過?哪及得中央欽點了兩個腦殘的特首給香港,「關照」得香港基層市民雞毛鴨血?沒有八年「建華之亂」,香港哪有今時今日,需要中央「照顧」?好不容易看見「八年」結束,怎料「文革曾」連任以來一直「浮雲」。香港政府最有效率的時間,這十年來一直只是在03年沙士之後,那「沒有特首」,各人在崗位上做好自己事的幾個月。



這種把香港玩殘,弄得民怨沖天時恐防民變而給的「照顧」,還敢說沒有它香港早完蛋!?

In the last two weeks, I had two very upset experience.


On Sunday two weeks ago, that was a very sunny day. I was attracted by sunshine and decided to have lunch outdoor and met a group of old men playing music in a park. They played very good music, I swear, and they played quietly. They tried not to annoy anyone in the park. I was sitting less than 50m away from them to have my burger, but I almost couldn't hear what they played.


So I changed my seat to get closer to them. But still not clear enough. I got closer and closer to them, and finally just next to them. I borrowed their instrument and played music with them. That is a joy hour. However, only about an hour.



That is a public park. Someone phoned to a park manager to complain those old men, then a park officer showed up stopping the activity. This is what commonly happens in Hong Kong. People are not allowed to have any kind of creating or art activity on the public area. Otherwise, the police finally come up to expel you. At many tourist area photographers are not allow to use tripod. In parks or on streets, even you are a world announced artist, you still can't stop down to stretch or paint picture at a side of the road. I have never heard the same things happened in other city or country.


Actually, if the government want to keep the order, they just outline a regulation to let people follow, and citizens can still enjoy creation and performance in the public area. However, the government just SWAP it all, like the same way they handle the cases of bird-flu and non-smoking campaign in restaurants. NO ART ACTIVITY ON PUBLIC AREA THEN THEY DON'T NEED TO REGULATE PEOPLE. NO LIVING CHICKEN IN HONG KONG THEN THEY DON'T NEED TO REGULATE FARMS AND SHOPS. NO SMOKER IN RESTAURANTS THEN THEY DON'T NEED REGULATE SMOKERS AND RESTAURANTS. Then they can sit back and sleep and get paid.


The government is saying to spend huge amount of money to build an art center in West Kowloon in order to courage the development of art and cultural industry in Hong Kong. Everyone knows that is only a trick to mock the citizens to fill the Victoria Harbor to create land for housing business giants. Officers in Hong Kong government don't know what the art is and they don't care. When they want art, they buy a air-ticket to have vacation oversea. This is their understanding of art. Pathetic.


But I have a question. What the government officers is just swap all the activity required regulation to make no regulation necessary, then their job is as easy as sitting on a chair; my question is, they have got no job to perform, why do they still get our tax-payers' money to sit in the office?


Another story happened two days ago. When I finished taking photos of hawkers on the street, an old lady came to me. She asked me if I am a journalist, and begged my grace not to put their activities on newspaper.


I felt sweat in my eyes. There showed two folds of problems in Hong Kong government. Although Hong Kong shouldn't be a poor city, the welfare for old people is totally the third world's, and somewhat insulting to the olds! Many old people live miserably in Hong Kong. The government officers always say that there are loopholes in present welfare policies to be abused so they can't raise the amount of budget on elder welfare. However every time when someone cried out a welfare reform, they just go get deaf ears.


This is the main reason why I dropped the plan of receiving Herceptin because I worry about my mom's living after I pass away if I use up her savings.


Hawker activities in Hong Kong used to be very characteristic. It was one of burning factors of tourist industry in Hong Kong. Furthermore, it was the way that thousands and thousands of poor family made their living in the past. However, the government just swap them all. Of course, it is because they hate all regulation. You can cry, you can commit suicide, but you can't be a hawker. There is only one option of regulation plan about hawker business - NO PLAN IS NEEDED BECAUSE OF NO HAWKER.


The same question: They make their job not even exist, why keep their position with our money?

剛才,看了<<四川災區香港督建61所學校沒倒塌>>一文。
http://www.hkreporter.com/talks/viewthread.php?tid=97211
這是由外國傳媒報導的消息:「四川汶川的大部分學校在地震中倒塌,但是一些由香港慈善機構監督建造的學校卻屹立不倒.....」那61所學校,有6所是在震中附近,但卻沒有一所倒塌。


星期三蕭先生在節目中提到,面對西方社會和西方人,香港人是華人社會中最有民族自信和民族自尊心最強的華人。


這些大陸人是不會明白,也不知為何。他們會認為香港人媚外崇洋,但不然,大部份土生土長出生於60至80前半年代的香港人的心裡根本是想他們與外國人平起平坐,可以對等相處。每有事發生,他們不會考慮誰支配誰,地位高低之爭的問題。這兩代的香港人,知道他們稱自己是香港人不是什麼令人自豪,卻也不點也不失禮;這就是有跟外國人平起平坐的自信,才能有這種不卑不亢的態度和思維。


為何前兩代的香港人在面對外國人時能有如此自信心,民族自尊怎可以「勁到爆」?就算台灣人也一時未能追上。(直至馬英九當選前,我都敢肯定地如此說。)


香港人現在有錢嗎?沒有,香港過去幾年的經濟發展比澳門還不如。譚博士也說過,他把投資台灣的商機告訴了澳門的學生,卻沒有告訴香港的學生,是因為 澳門的 學生普遍有錢,香港的年輕人很窮,沒有錢投資台灣,即使對香港學生說了也白說。很多內地人有一個心態,他們現在有錢了,香港的經濟也要靠大陸了,還可以嘲 笑香港人是「港燦」,有財有勢就很有地位了,但為什麼在國際上得不到尊重?


香港曾經富有,也經歷衰落。自信和自尊建立在金錢和勢力上的話,多麼的不可靠。


道理其實很簡單,香港明白到「做好一個人」就會得到西方的尊重。台灣大地震,台灣的豆腐渣工程和和官商貧瀆被發現;四川大地震,國內的豆腐渣工程和 官商貧 瀆被發現;同一場地震,香港人被發現做了普通人應該做好的事,很平凡的事,但就讓外國人尊重了。「做好一個人」,就已經可以得到光榮,做好一個人,你就有 民族自尊。


五月十二日,有一位網友開了一個帖子<<精英大師威,即係我地威!:奧運教育提升青少年民族自豪感>>。
http://www.hkreporter.com/talks/viewthread.php?tid=71311&highlight=%2Bhayashi


奧運教育真的能讓青少年有真正的民族自豪感嗎?先看看奧運教育是否讓國內青少年得到真正的民族自豪感。國家花了四千多億元去辦奧運,是不是就得到了 尊重?大陸人不停大喊「中國加油」,背後原因不就是他們發現他們花了大款,經濟崛起後, 原來並沒有得到外面尊重?說什麼京奧讓中國人自豪,變得自欺欺人的話。在過去十多年,你聽過什麼時候香港人會因為外國人或內地人的目光而激動地大叫「香港 加油」?沒有,香港人的自信令他們可以淡然面對這些眼光和批評,激情都多餘。部份國內的人因為有錢有勢力,看不起香港人了,但香港人何時失去過自信?因為,真正的自信和自尊是不需要建立在這些外在的眼光和金錢上。


那61間在四川大地震在災區沒倒下學校,跟香港傳奧運火炬的過程,哪個讓香港人得到更多國際社會尊重?香港傳火炬,選手名單連國內的人也看不起了。 但是香 港人在圍觀時的秩序和保護場地清潔的習慣,卻得到了好評。其實,都只是做好一個人而已,公德心是很平凡的事,但就得了尊重。


那些人鼓吹的國民教育,並不能建立孩子真正的民族自尊心。國內的愛國教育,也沒有令國內的青少年建立出比香港人更高的民族自信。做好一個人,要有公德心,香港的國民教育沒有教,卻是具體的,真正能建立國際社會尊重和真正民族自尊的方法;然而國民教育沒有教這些具體的方法,卻教孩子捕捉虛榮,以抽象的思想自欺欺人。


教孩子做好一個人,就是比愛國教育更好的愛國教育,國家和民族都有面子。

中文學生報那件事,今天矛頭由討論學生是否有錯,轉到批評大學的處理方法上。



那麼學生的事呢? 去了哪里呢? 他們搞情色版是他們自願還是學校要求的呢?大學有要求他們以這種方式編輯情色版的內容?



難道大學在事後的處理手法的對錯,可以令這群學生的責任一筆勾消?



我怕,這樣把大學的處理手法和學生編輯的事混淆在一起,只會鼓勵那群學生把自己責任推卸,永遠不去反省,不能從這件事中成長。那些弄出這混淆局面的人,本來是為了同情孩子,結果最後只會妨害了他們的成長。



為什麼現在的孩子到了大學了,還是像小學生般對社會要求一無所知?還不是在這種家長和社會的混淆視聽的環境下長大的後果?



現 在孩子在小學、中學犯錯時,不少家長都是為孩子想盡辯護的理由,或指責對方的小孩刺激了他的小孩,或指責老師的管教傷害了孩子的心理,結果他們的孩子在判 斷力和責任感方面,由小到大都沒有在正確的引導下成長過。孩子永遠沒有學習過如何勇敢地面對過失,在反省中學者自強自重。



支持學生的家長們和校友們,你們真的用對了方法去愛那些孩子嗎?

今晚跟家人一起談中文學生報那些學生編輯們,所反駁社會批評的說話,

實在除了無奈之外,就只能當作笑話看。



中文學生報40年來一直辦得很好,對社會有貢獻,但那40年的歷史是由他們創造的嗎?

前人做很好是他們的功勞?



"如果傳媒不報導學生報的這起事件,中文大學的聲譽就不會被毀。"

我想問問這班學生報編輯,他們是辦報的?

報紙傳媒不是要報導真相,維護公眾知情權,

使政府和機構受到公眾的監察麼?

他們開口埋口就說他們編審自由,

一方面就自相矛盾地否定其他傳媒的新聞自由?



新聞自由在這群小子眼中根本一文不值,

他們只是把新聞自由當作是快歺店的外賣塑膠盒子,方便自己,用完隨手即棄。



自己做錯了事,就指責別人把真相公開。

這麼不分是非的是大學生? 是小學生吧。

更何況中文大學今次的校譽不就是敗在他們手上嗎?



這幾年,我看著現在的家長教育小孩是多麼的放縱。

政府為了硬銷教育改革,

惡意抺黑學校教師的,拉攏家長不相信教師,消除改革的阻力。

家長面對老師有如狼虎,老師對學生稍加管教就如履薄冰,但仍不免遭到投訴。

多年來政府和家長那些任性莾為,終於在今天開花結果了。善哉,善哉。

There was some sunlight during 3p.m. today. Therefore I took a camera loaded with a roll of slide - I took a few photos with it in flower show, and the D70 to a park nearby. I wanted to finish the roll of slide ASAP.



I met a six-year-old boy in the park. He came closed to me curiously. We started a tropic about bees.




He looked at my exotic machine. I know he was interested to it. I let me look through the view finder of my camera. The boy got overjoy and used his hand to examine my lens. My, my. He left his fingerprint on the front glass of the lens. Oops. Fortunately, I had my lens-cleaning eqipment with me.




I took away the camera with slide and put D70 (Digital SLR) on my tripod. I lock an extension tube with a 105mm micro lens on the DSLR. We shot a few flowers, then we played a tracing game to small bugs and beatles in flowers. One of the wonderful things about DC is that you can let kids take as many photos as they like. The boy at the beginning was very timid, but very soon he shoot the bugs with the DSLR like using an machine gun. :)



After he has learnt how to enlarge photos and to seach bugs on photos, he imitated me to adjust the focus ring on lens and to move the tripod. Of course, he lost the focus to the bug every time he did, but he was having fun. I sometimes re-focused the bugs and flowers for him. We had a wonderful time.



Anyway, his hand is too small, so most of photos he shoots are shaked. The photos on this post were all my works.The last two photos were taken near my home on Thrusday evening. I just put them together on this post.

For those in Hong Kong, the answer is 8.



No kidding. This is what I found in the latest issue of Time magazine yesterday. The air pollution in Hong Kong is so bad. Living in Hong Kong for one day, the amount of pollutant inhaled equals to that of smoking 8 cigarettes.



So what do I think?



I think we've got a good reason to have more BBQ in Hong Kong. Having BBQ for one time is equivalent of having 1 cigarette daily for 1 year. When we are having 8 cigarettes every day, we should get a couple more to enjoy our life.



Furthermore, it is quite a natural disaster for a country with 14 billion people to develop without regulations and respect to public interests.



你每天吸多少支煙?



如果你活在香港的話, 答案是8。



沒有開玩笑, 這是我昨晚在「時代」雜誌看到的。香港的空氣汚染程度,已到達大家只要在這裡住一天就吸了相等於8支香煙的汚染物。



那麼我有甚麼感想?



首先我們可以更放心多去燒烤。在一次燒烤中才吸了一年中每日一支煙的汚染物,反正已吸了8支了,多幾支又何妨,而且是以這麼快樂的方式。



而且也看到了在一個有14億人口的國家在沒有有效的管制和人民缺乏公德的意識下以西方模式發展經濟,所帶來可怕的自然災難。
