I met Melvis the #hongkong #elvis in 2019 when I was helping to produce a documentary on him. During the process I ended up getting to know him and his family quite well. He lived in the same area as me in 沙田 where we would go to Dai pai dongs together and chat about life (1)

David Webb said his proposal for a public transparency project was rejected by the University of Hong Kong. HKU's response to @AFP: "(HKU) is an institution dedicated to academic excellence, we will continue to uphold academic freedom and the freedom of thought and speech."

Of power struggles and power shots, Of machismo, of bravado, of Cockpiece dots Of money men and honey gems Of credit crunches and clock work munches Of sordid sires and affairs of state Don't you worry - you won't be late (5)

@bobbiharlow Diu… it’s annoying how we have to care

So much sympathy for my Hong Kong friends who have the misfortune of watching local reactions to the US election play out in Chinese 🤢

@RamyInocencio Stay safe Ramy and keep strong 💪

Back in Israel for another rotation reporting the #IsraelHamasWar. Signs here at Ben Gurion airport for shelter - from rockets fired from Gaza - are the norm. Tomorrow - December 7 and the start of Hanukkah - will be two months to the day since this most recent violence started.

Kissinger is dead. He set US China policy for the late Cold War and beyond. Only in the last 5 years have we seen the full consequences — and costs — of his influence. A thread 🧵

Sometimes a crisis hits so hard that a country needs help from others to overcome it. That’s not one-way humanitarian saviourism, it’s international solidarity. 200 South African firefighters land in Edmonton, Canada to help fight the wildfire. Sound up 🔊
