#Finnish investigators suspect Chinese vessel's anchor caused Balticconnector pipeline damage

The National Bureau of Investigation has found a large anchor near the site where the pipeline was damaged, as well as drag marks on the seabed.

The #NBI had previously stated that it was investigating the movements of the NewNew Polar Bear, a Hong Kong flagged ship owned by a #Chinese firm

Hong Kong is losing its relevance in finance and business.

"At the height of the Zero-COVID madness in early 2022, tens of thousands of business and finance professionals left Hong Kong for more open cities, particularly Singapore."

"Despite Hong Kong's connections with China, the city's economic growth has lagged that of Singapore, which is now 70 richer than Hong Kong by GDP per capita."

authorities have issued groundless arrest warrants and bounties of HK$1 million (US$128,000) on eight exiled democracy activists and former lawmakers.

This is extending its political intimidation campaign beyond its borders.

The charges would be too ridiculous to mention if they didn’t so clearly demonstrate Beijing’s blinkered authoritarian mindset.

A Hong Kong man with Portuguese nationality was jailed for five years on Thursday for "incitement to secession," the first dual-national convicted under the city's Beijing-made national security law. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/04/11/asia-pacific/politics/hong-kong-dual-national-secession/ #asiapacific #politics #hongkong #china #portugal

A Hong Kong government crackdown on neon signs stems from safety and environmental concerns, but the campaign evokes the fading of the city itself. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/12/11/asia-pacific/social-issues/hong-kong-neon-signs/?utm_content=bufferc103b&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #asiapacific #socialissues #hongkong #cities #china

Part of my is relieved and glad that she is safe(r), away from the grips of the CCP.

But it's also deeply sad to see #HongKong lose another one of its brightest youth leaders.

Founded in 2006, Hong Kong's Civic Party was made up of attorneys, academics and other professionals who wanted to promote democratization, becoming at one point the city's second-largest opposition party. Now it has cleared its headquarters and shuttered its doors. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/12/28/asia-pacific/politics/hong-kong-opposition-party/?utm_content=buffer0e9cb&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #asiapacific #politics #china #hongkong #democracy

Opening November 20, Hong Kong Disneyland’s new land - World of Frozen - will feature at least 2 new trash can designs: a general-use teal can throughout the land and a cream-colored can for Wandering Oaken’s Sliding Sleighs coaster.

Recently, Sarawak Metro had the pleasure of meeting their counterparts in Hong Kong together with senior officers from Sarawakian ministries and agencies.

Sarawak Metro thanked MTR for the opportunity to connect and learn during the visit.

It seemed like they probably discussed about transit-oriented development (TOD), possibly wanting to implement them under the Kuching Urban Transportation System (KUTS).
