Discussion with Maria Tam & Alan Leong on the disqualification of Lau Siu-lai
2018-10-20
The disqualification of Lau Siu-lai from running in the upcoming Legco by-election comes along with a series of recent events, from the ban on the Hong Kong National Party, the refusal to renew a work visa for Financial Times Asia news editor Victor Mallet, to the toe the line instructions given to a group of media executives during their recent visit to Beijing. It looks as though the mainland’s so-called “red lines” are getting ever more numerous. With me now are Maria Tam, the Vice-chairwoman of the Basic Law Committee and senior counsel and Chairman of the Civic Party Alan Leong to discuss the implications.
Well, while we were discussing the fate of democratic development, a delegation from Hong Kong were winding up a visit to Beijing where, according to their spokesman, they were given guidance on how the local media should behave. We’ll leave you with images of that and hopefully without crossing red lines. See you next week. Goodbye.

Its focus? The latest events and trends that affect Hong Kong - from the corridors of power and business boardrooms, to the streets and dai pai dongs.
"The Pulse" is politics. What's happening in the Legislative Council and on the streets right now.
"The Pulse" is the media, informing us how well or badly our press and broadcast organisations diagnose and reflect the society around us.
"The Pulse" is insightful, in-depth reports and interviews on current issues - examining those issues in depth, looking behind and beyond the news.
Its focus is on the timely. The Now.
Keep your eye ... and your finger ... on "The Pulse".
