when no dine in is allowed

2nd half of July 2020 saw a resurging of wuhan virus in hk, with daily cases over 100.

gov’t at first ban dine in in all restaurants after 6 p.m. for 2 weeks, followed by an announcement of total ban for the following week.

result is people sadly eat on street / refuse room / in park holding umbrellas / sweating under hot sun….some even kneel on floor…

policy immediately changed after 1 day!!

at the same time the ban was first implemented, gov’t also made it mandatory for people to wear masks outdoor, exercise having no exemption!

anyone with common sense would know the risks of heat stroke when exercising outdoor with mask in summer here, when real feel can be as high as 40 degrees.

seeing what need to happen to make gov’t reverse the decision.

yet hkers are really flexible beings. in just the 1st day, a few catering outlets cutting price / lengthening time of promotion , some shut down totally for 1 week..

on 2nd day, organisations such as church / office / cafes.. willingly open up for people to dine in for free.

a church’s members even put tables and chairs on foot bridge so anyone can come to dine 🙂

daughter and i, so blessed and honored to spend a quiet evening in park, enjoying take away, and shared with many birdies who seem to be extra hungry when there r much less people around.

it is certainly a test of our wisdom / courage to stand up for what is sensible, when the mass and those with power over shadowed with fear + the mis conception that a mask will serve as a powerful protection / very effectively curb spreading.

while the use of it certainly do some good, esp. indoor/ crowded places, the cons of using it has to be weighed against the pros. after all it is something that restrict personal freedom and lower quality of life. the health and emotional / psychological impact of long term use yet to be revealed.

no wonder in US, some fight / quarrel against each other regarding the need to wear mask.

a more sensible option that might balance between the need to reduce spreading of virus and protection of personal right is to rely on self discipline. so that people not feeling well need to wear mask where ever they go, and strong recommendation to wear one indoor / crowded places.

again, very similar to bra, all female should be entitled to choose between whether to wear one, without being discriminated in anyway by both male and female.

a mask might be a very similar version of bra so that the male can experience that social pressure ! ahahahahah

while the fight of virus continues, the gov’t works very hard to crack down dissidents. 3 students were just arrested under the new “national security law”, while 12 potential candidates for legco disqualified obviously for their political views / standpoints.

internationally, US and prc closed down each other’s embassy, first time ever after decades of establishing ties, with stricter measures to follow if the hk govt / prc keep going down the path.

it does seems what Bashar said is very true. that we are heading towards a Pheonix world / earth that rise from ash.

a lot that do not serve need to be revealed, surfaced, transformed….

we shall all pass the transition / test with flying colors if we all maintain a positive attitude, knowing all happen for a reason, the external simply a reflection of our own beliefs.

by adjusting our beliefs and truly “know thyself” we can facilitates creation of a new order and quantum leap of humanity.

blessings be to all
