The fire in Hong Kong isn’t an accident, but a result of corruption that ties with DAB, a party directly under Beijing, construction company and the Hong Kong government directly. Even though residents have been complaining for years, there was no response from the government, resulting in 100s of deaths. This is all on the incapable, corrupted government of Hong Kong.

Regina Ip, Lawmaker, criticized that blaming the fire onto bamboo Scaffolding is using it as a scapegoat and to misdirection the public. She also went on saying that this saying isn’t responsible towards the victims and their families.
Facing so many criticism, Security Chief of Hong Kong had to change his opinion after 3 days, saying that 7/20 samples of the green mesh net does not meet the standards.

Hong Kong Silence Operation Part 4: Controlling the Narrative
The Hong Kong Government seems to have a protocol to control narrative right from the start. Instead of stopping the fire and saving lives, finding a proper scapegoat was their first priority.
Nov 26, the very same day of the fire, Xinyan Huang, a scholar from China, blamed on the bamboo scaffolding for fire to spread rapidly. Major news outlets including CNN, BBC, Reuters, the Guardians all reported the fire based on his only opinion.
Nov 27, John Lee, the Chief Executive of Hong Kong, announced a plan to phrase out bamboo scaffolding in Hong Kong.
Although some news have changed their opinion on bamboo scaffolding later on, the discussion about the fire focused on bamboo scaffolding rather than collusive bidding and how the government was involved.
Up until now, no government officials are arrested or responsible and no policy has been changed.

Other than firefighters and medics, the first people that went to help are local citizens everywhere from the city bringing food and their own supplies. However, to the #HKGov took all the credits. They called the cops to drive those volunteers away and the “Care Team” from the government takes pictures in front of those supplies that belongs to the volunteers. This is awfully disgusting.

Hong Kong Government is running a Silence Operation to cover up the the #TaiPoFire. John Li, the Chief Executive of Hong Kong, announced that there would be a 1 social worker to follow each affected family. Instead of understanding their needs, victims complain that they are actually being monitored. Some also said they received phone called twice a day telling them not to missed the election, an agenda that the government want to push so that it looks like they this rigged election is supported by the public.
香港政府正進行一項「Silence Operation」來壓制公眾聲音,掩蓋 #TaiPoFire 大埔火災事件。香港行政長官李家超宣布,每個受影響家庭將有一名社工跟進。但受害者投訴,這些社工並非了解他們的需求,而是實際上在監視他們。有些人還表示,每天收到兩次電話,提醒他們不要錯過選舉,這是政府想推動的議程,好讓這場操縱的選舉看起來獲得公眾支持。

Silencing HongKongers
National Security Police arrested a student who started a petition for 4 demands. Silencing what the victims and #HongKongers truly needs to protect this corrupted system.
The 4 demands has nothing to do with National Security:
1 - continue to support the victims
2 - independent investigation
3 - review the inspection system
4 - prosecution for the government officials who are in charge.
It clearly shows that the true purpose of #nationalsecuritylaw is to undermine the right of the citizens of Hong Kong, it has nothing shoot protecting the country.

The memorial service in Toronto fill up the whole hall. However, people continue to enter the hall giving flowers and signing petition.
追悼宏福苑火災的多倫多追思會座無虛席,然而仍然有人持續進入會場獻花並簽署請願書。

Silencing Operation Part 3:
Influencers and even pro-Beijing Commentator who criticized the government for the fire has their articles and posts taken down all because of obvious and unavoidable factors.
University’s also block the walls where students stick their banners to show gratitudes to the victims.
Opinions and gratitudes are treated as a kind of hate speech to the Hong Kong Government.
多名網紅及甚至親北京評論員因批評政府在 #宏福苑火災 事件上的處理,其文章及貼文均被刪除,一切皆因「不可抗力因素」。
大學亦封鎖牆壁,阻止學生張貼橫額以向受害者表達慰問。
意見及慰問均被香港政府視為一種仇恨言論。

Bamboo becomes the Scapegoat this time!
Everyone #HongKongers expected the #HKGov would find a scapegoat way before the fire was put out. What surprising was that this time it wasn’t a person, but the bamboo.
The “Mandatory Inspection Scheme” in Hong Kong, initiated by the government is the very reason that caused this tragedy.
To put it short:
1 - Government requires home owners to remake the buildings wall.
2 - Pro-Beijing & construction agencies infiltrated Home Owners Corporation.
3 - Hire construction companies with extremely high price.
4 - all materials and workers not meeting safety standards are purchased from China.
5 - $$ goes to China.

Volunteers Continue to Get Arrested
Normally, you would think that the Police or Anti-Corruption would be arresting government officials or contractors who are related to the #taipofire, but under #CCP, it is quite the opposite. 2 volunteers are arrested. Kenneth Cheung, former Tuen Muen District Council, was arrested by #NationalSecurity Police for inciting hatred. He incited hatred by handling supplies for the victims.
Another female volunteer, known as Tsing, who had been handling supplies was also arrested.
This is how the Hong Kong Government handle this tragedy. They want all the victims and those who help them to be silence.
