China Speaks for all Hong Kong, According to The Basic Law.

By MIKOspace

Democracy is about the Rule of Law, Not the Rule of the Mob. Never mind the size of the Mob Crowd or the loud noise of the Rabble. They have no place in a Democracy when illegal. HK students represent NOBODY.

It is clear that the Hong Kong demonstrators, mostly students encouraged by politicians with their own agenda, do not care about the livelihood and well-being of the rest of Hong Kong, who is really the majority. The Hong Kong demonstrators are fighting only for themselves, NOT for the majority of HK people. They should now keep quiet and listen to the rest of Hong Kong whose families has lost much needed incomes from reduced tourism and disruptions to transportation.  The loss of tourism earnings by 7% must seriously hit the pockets of taxi drivers, retail shop owners, amusement centre operators, tour guides, tour operators, restaurants, hotels and, yes, the parents, uncles/aunties, relatives and siblings of the demonstrators.  The earnings loss will never be recovered.

Never has the abuse of Democratic freedom so blatant.  The inherent right to peaceful protests has been openly misused to riot over unfounded fears about the future.  Nothing is more frightening than to lash out at shadows when believing monsters residing within.  

WHO will speak for those hurt most by irresponsible Hong Kong demonstrators? According to the Basic Law of Hong Kong, it is China.      

Under British common law, the owner’s right to the return of his “stolen” property is absolute.  And any agreement to abridge or limit such rights by stating conditions for the lawful return of rightful property has no basis in law and therefore unenforceable. Whither the HK Basic Law?  

The Hong Kong Basic Law is a purely domestic legislation deriving its authority from the Constitution of the People's Republic of China (PRC). In fact, Basic Law’s Article 158 specifically vested the power of final interpretation of the HK Basic Law in the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPCSC) which is the highest organ of state whose power is derived from the Constitution of the People's Republic of China. Ergo, YES, the PRC Constitution supersedes the Basic Law of Hong Kong SAR.  In fact, it was the NPCSC who adopted and approved the HK Basic Law on 4 April 1990, and came into effect on Handover Day, 1 July 1997

Essentially, the HK Basic Law, which is the outcome of the Joint Declaration between PRC and the British government on Hong Kong, acts as the historic interim (50 years) agreement on the rightful RETURN of Hong Kong back to the People's Republic of China.

Hong Kong is NOT Scotland. Scotland conquered England (plus Wales) in 1603, and UK was formed in 1707 together with Ireland. Unlike Scotland, Hong Kong has always belonged to China, who was forced to cede it to the British under the shameful Treaty of Nanjing in 1842 when China lost the Opium War with Britain after failing to stop Britain from selling the profitable poison to the Chinese people. It's like the Mexican/Latin American Drug cartels demanding the State of Texas as payment and compensation for American destruction of their lucrative cocaine trade in the American war on drug.

Unlike Scotland, the option for Hong Kong independence is not available since she is just a SMALL Chinese city and an integral part of China. Hong Kong people must learn HOW to live as part of China, not apart.

Another stock market story

Looks like the remisiers and traders are very free these days and have a lot of time to activate their creative juice. Some are turning into poets.

There is a big playground for adults in Singapore ...
It's called the stock market
We used to love to play here
There were many people with similar objective playing in this playground
There used to be much excitement here
But in the recent past many months, this playground is deserted
On any given days, there is hardly any people going there
I still go there everyday, I want to play, I want to try
No matter how I do, I can't find any other people playing here
I always played with the same people and ...
With each passing day, less & less people dropped by
It's getting harder & harder to be motivated to come here...
I used to look forward coming here ... but now
I dread coming here ... It's like going to those Sentosa apartments,
There is hardly anybody there ...
Something is wrong in this playground, very WRONG indeed!

A desperate plea to the foreign talents

40% of the population in this island is foreigners. And depending on the parameters one is using, or the definition, true blue Singaporeans are now an absolute minority in their city island. The Singaporeans have been told to be grateful to the foreigners for they are here to help them and create jobs for them. And the foreigners know that they are the white knights that are here to save the daft citizens for without them the little island will go down the chute to the 3rd World. For recognition of this hard truth, the daft citizens are all grateful to the foreigners and welcomed them with open arms and open legs.
 
The foreigners, especially the fakes, knew how important they are to the citizens and their good life. They know that the good life of the daft citizens will be an issue without them. It is a nice balance with both sides understanding where they stand. The citizens even sent love letters to the construction workers to show their appreciation for building the flats for them. The citizens with the help of the govt are helping the foreigners to integrate and adapt themselves to the island, to make their living pleasant, and to feel very welcome. The citizens have been coaxed to be nice to the foreigners. Even when a group of foreigners rioted, they were referred to as very nice people. No offensive words must be used against the foreigners to hurt their feelings.
 
The foreigners even demanded for equal rights with the citizens and privileges like places for their children. Some foreigners are starting to lose their patience with the citizens. They found the citizens really daft, no skill sets to be employable, university graduates but unemployable. They got so frustrated with the local retards that they insisted on bringing in their talents from their village universities to replace the so called local talents from so called top ranking universities. Many local PMEs were booted out from jobs that they were doing well for ten or twenty years only to be made redundant and be replaced by talented graduates from degree mills universities or unheard of universities.
 
The replacement of the locals by the foreign talents is like a coordinated movement and organizations are increasing filling their positions with more foreigners than citizens. They are taking more and more of the top jobs that locals are unfit to do.
 
In the streets, foreigners are losing their patients with the locals too and would not hesitate to take the law into their own hands, to wallop the lazy, slow and daft citizens.
 
This is a plea to the foreign talents not to take all the good jobs from the locals. Please leave some jobs for the citizens or they will all end up as taxi drivers. And don’t forget that they have a huge mortgage to pay and children to send overseas for their education. So please don’t take up too many university places as well. Many parents had to sell their flats just because the university places were taken up by foreign students. And please, our citizen lecturers and professors also need to work, to teach. Please do not replace them with talented foreigners no matter how good they are. It is undesirable for our citizen university dons to drive taxis.
 
You talented foreigners have taken a lot of our top jobs and middle management jobs. We are not complaining if you are taking over the manual jobs in the construction industry. But leave some cleaners jobs in the food courts to the citizens please. They need to work to have a bit of dignity even at 70 or 80.
And please don’t beat us whenever you are unhappy or provoked by the daft citizens when they got into your way. They did not know that they should be out of your way. And please don’t cheat our oldies. They have a lot of money but they are all suffering from dementia or simply gullible and are easy targets. They worked very hard for a life time. Please don’t cheat or rob them of their life savings.
 
Please, please, tolong, tolong. Be kinder to us, the daft citizens of this island. And when you foreigners eventually take over all the top jobs in the island and the govt, have mercy on us, the original citizens. We are very nice people too, really. We don’t mind inviting all of you and your village kins here to take over our jobs and our country. Just be nicer to us and leave some crumbs for us.
 
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Is Madam Chung medically fit to revoke LPA

A LPA is a very serious piece of paper that accorded great powers to the holder over the finance and wealth and health of a person that gave the LPA to. Now Madam Chung Khin Chun is under an appointed medical expert to determine if she is medically fit to revoke the LPA. What if she is found to be unfit to revoke the LPA? Would the holder of the LPA still retain the power and continue to exercise that power legally?
 
I would presume that if Yang Yin is found guilty of fraud and declared unfit to be the guardian, the court could revoke the LPA on Madam Chung’s behalf. What if there is insufficient evidence to make a conviction and Yang Yin is discharged or acquitted, does it mean that he should still legally be the guardian of Madam Chung with the LPA?
 
Can it be so scary?
 
Madam Chung’s case exposed a serious flaw in the LPA process. These are likely to be people at a point of losing their mental capacity and lucidness. And they could totally lose their ability to revoke the LPA very soon after granting it and in case of a similar fraud, how are they to revoke the LPA on their own? Going through the due process of the law and OPG could be time consuming and by the time the matter is settled, all the assets could be disposed off.

Firm loses $2m to secretary

A local company is suing its secretary for theft amounting to $2 m. Apparently the secretary had been depositing the company’s cash cheques into her own pocket for a period of 7 to 8 years. And the cash cheques were in sums of $30k to $400k.
 
Taking this as an example for discussion, who is to be blamed? The secretary is at fault for sure. What about the company? How could a secretary keep on taking cash cheques from a company without anyone noticing it for such a long spell of time and for such a considerable sum of money?
 
What is the moral of the story? If you allow a thief to keep taking away your money without resisting, or did not want to bother, did not want to know or do anything about it, you deserve to lose your money. By not wanting to do anything, or not bothering, it is like telling the thief, actually not a thief, to take and take and take.
 
Apply the same logic to the jobs in the country, the space and the whole country. If we let foreigners to keep taking away our good jobs, our space, and eventually the whole country, and not doing anything about it, we deserve to lose everything, all our possessions and even our country.
 
Do you want that to happen, daft Sinkies?
