Snippets

There are too many things going on to write at length about all of them (I have to work, you know).  So, just a couple of quick reactions to some recent snippets of news.

"Tourism Board chairman Peter Lam Kin-ngok warned that Occupy Central could harm tourism in the city."
-- So, another reason to welcome Occupy Central!

And in China, an appeal court believes a totally nonsensical story and reduces a killer's sentence to 7 years.  This one is so absurd that even the usually Pro-China Morning Post gives space to demolishing it.  See also here and here.

-- Oh well, it may not be justice, but at least we can be sure the judges are patriots!
