- One context about the Sister Hong saga is the crackdown on sex work. The authorities have used AI to detect sex talk and transactions in chatrooms, but free sex is not illegal... globalvoices.org/2025/07/21/w...
- Nut Brother's disappearance has become part of his art performance in the authoritarian state, as people are asking Where are you, my bro. This time, it is a bit more sensitive as it is the state policy to boost coal output. globalvoices.org/2025/07/11/w...

- What's at stake is not just the CK Hutchison's deal but the status of HK as a free trade center and the potential escalation of geopolitical tension between China and the U.S. globalvoices.org/2025/03/31/c...
- This time the mobilization is big, considering that most protesters had to bear political risks when they enter hk, macau or china. globalvoices.org/2025/03/21/w...
- The recent development in the U.S reminds me of the sci-fi "The Three Body Problem" on how a decent scientist decided to work with aliens to bring an end to the world against the backdrop of the cultural revolution in china.
- I was an optimist about the cross strait relationship before. But now it’s a very heavy topic… globalvoices.org/2025/03/14/c...
- More and more Chinese companies are investing overseas to prevent trade disputes. But the cheap production cost has been highly exploitative back home. Now it tries to export that offshore globalvoices.org/2025/03/10/a...
- "A rising East and decling West" had been a joke until Trump became the U.S president. globalvoices.org/2025/03/08/c...
- I love Li Xueqin's performance. Her jokes are full of social commentaries about gender stereotypes, regional inequality and youth unemployment. Any successful comedian has to be a censorship fighter. globalvoices.org/2025/03/04/h...

- Here comes the Chinese expression - digging one's graveyard. If one were only allowed to enter the airport or subway or malls upon getting a psycho-pass, most people would be lying flat at home. (Some Chinese schools have been using similar machines to access students and teachers' performance.)
- Indeed, China has invested so much on X - buying blue ticks, paying influencers, launching ideological warfare with the West. I am glad that it finally occupies X! What a victory :P
- Being in HK, commenting on the case would risk being charged with contempt of court or the article 23's sedition crime. That's why a husband can't defend his wife.
