Participating in the upcoming extended term of the legislative council is, I feel, the lesser of two evils. Of course the one-year postponement of the election which should have been held this month was an anti-democratic trick by the government to avoid facing the voters. The extended term surely lacks legitimacy in the public eye.
But with liberal and democratic institutions being constantly undermined by an executive seeking to bring the other arms of government under its control, we must take every opportunity to voice our concerns, use every forum to fight back in the interests of Hong Kong’s governance, and the promises enshrined in the Basic Law.
Of course previously I’ve had my reservations about staying on, as it would mean accepting a quasi Beijing appointment in an un-elected legislature, ie without the people’s mandate. I’ve had my moments of a psychic tug-of-war.
It’s also understood that many of our young view some of the veterans in the democratic camp as washouts, that they belong to an earlier civilisation and should have been “outed” anyway. Some online criticism would go as far as, and I quote, “Can’t let go of the pay and the glory associated with a Legco seat, can you? Like you are being thrown a bone, a bone only but you can’t wait to go get it”, unquote.
Amongst the democrats I’m probably, probably, the one with the least
political baggage: The fact that I do not have a political party background; that I’m not young and as a result I wouldn’t need to worry too much about career development or prospects. And so perhaps I am more able to consider the “stay or quit” question with an even more free mind.
What’s happened is the number of pro-democracy legislators has already been thinned by legal manoeuvres to oust elected members. But we can perhaps muster just enough votes to deny the pro-government camp absolute control over the council.
Unrepresentative though it is, the council often is not just a talking shop and rubber stamp. It does have some ability to query officials, demand information and make constructive criticism of government proposals and policies. Even when the criticism is not particularly constructive, or some would even call it destructive, it could at least help vent public anger and frustration.
We need opposition voice to at least better health policy, labour rights, pollution, education and public transport problems.
Between now and next September we should be able to show Hongkongers that we can be of value in fighting for their interests. Although the system remains heavily weighted against us, the legislature remains a place where we can stand up, on the spot, against the arrogance and incompetence of the administration.
We don’t just make noise, we carry on to serve as the voice of the people. We shouldn’t become outsiders looking in. We need feet on the ground.
Sure we could be running into a storm without even an umbrella. Things could get painful. It’s so much easier to quit. But to quit would just be taking a placebo line. We cannot pretend the pain is not there, we just need to deal with it, fight it.
The lawmaker capacity does carry a degree of power. Once I called the agriculture and fisheries department, demanding to speak to the department head, saying it’s a matter of utter emergency. What was happening that day was a government wild pig hunting team armed with Remington's was scheduled to go to a village, provoking an unnecessary but possible violent standoff between villagers and animal rights campaigners.
My little intervention was successful. The AFCD head heeded and cancelled the hunting mission that day. And thanks to joint efforts on the civil society and Legco fronts such wild boar hunting squads have now been scrapped altogether.
Another episode that has been lodged in my head involved what happened on August 31 last year. Speculation was rife that there were fatalities inside the Prince Edward MTR station that evening, at the peak of our protest movement. I made a number of official enquiries and subsequently managed to have a face-to-face meet-up with the fire services chief.
Although in the end neither the police nor the fire department could satisfactorily explain the discrepancies in the number of injured and the state of injuries, at the time it was the only way to prompt —- if not force —- the civil servants involved to do their explaining in public, to the media.
It’s experiences of the kind that help to solidify my opinion that democrats should remain on the inside. Because of what we do, a lot of incompetence and hypocrisy, sometimes even some crookedness get exposed.
Beijing loyalists and the pro-government type would keep on politely tip-toeing around issues so as not to offend the authorities, they would keep on spinning mistruths, the democrats can counter that performance.
At a time when Hong Kong is politically, financially going down the tubes, with our young in particular feeling helpless, at a time when hope seems to be dismissed and punishment dealt, when discontent could morph into pure hate and antipathy to the government, democrats should help by not abandoning any battleline.
Anyone who wants to query government policies, draw attention to abuses, obtain information now faces increasing difficulties.
Assembly is restricted. People have to guard their words. Much mainstream media simply reflect official policies and journalists now have to be approved by the police to be treated as such. However inadequate it may be, the legislative council remains a forum for questions and comment, and is widely reported.
And popularly elected legislators in particular have standing which cannot be ignored at home, and they are also focus of foreign inquiry about Hong Kong issues. Journalistic institutions magnify the impact of such individuals who would otherwise find themselves crying in the wilderness, lone voices without a platform. Legco is a platform, however shaky.
If results of an opinion poll —-expected by Tuesday —-commissioned by the Democratic Party tell us to go —- easy, we’ll just pack up.
But Im hoping for the opposite. I for one would want to keep staying on the Legco frontline, standing up for what I believe. Nothing egotistical about it. We will simply take what's left and fight it out.
I’m prepared to take the lesser evil.

Listerine is among the mandatory things I will buy and put in the toilet at home. I've always been listering with Listerine to keep my mouth fragrant. I taught my 9 year old to do the same thing and it's really good for the teeth of kids who love to eat sweet things.
Apart from being used for garment, Listerine also has some other good and effective uses that you never knew. Let me share 10 ways of other Listerine uses that you can practice.
1. Removes bad smell on armpits
Pour some Listerine into cotton balls or white cloth and scrub your armpits. Listerine will remove your bad smell and give you a fresh smell. Then your wife likes to be hugged always.
2. Removes itchiness due to bug bites
Apply some Listerine to areas that are bitten by bugs like an ant or mosquitoes. It helps to relieve itchiness and prevent bite effects from becoming bruised. If you're itchy to marry differently, this way is not effective.
3. Killed germs in toilet bowl
Listerine not only can exterminate the germs in the mouth, but also in your toilet bowl. Pour some Listerine and scrub the toilet bowl with a brush. Germs die, your toilet bowl smells good too. Don't you get excited to kiss the toilet bowl later, naya.
4. Helps to remove dandruff
Wash your hair with some water, then pour Listerine and taste on it. Massage and swipe the Listerine all over the hair until it feels cold. It's fun. Wrap head with towel for 20 minutes. After that, rinse your hair again. More savings than you pay treatment for scalp at the salon.
5. Removes fleas in animal hair
Many cat fans are having flea issues in their pet hair. Can mix Listerine with water and spray into the cat's hair. In addition, it can also be mixed with bath shampoo to use while bathing the cat. Confirmed to run the flea run later defeat Usain Bolt.
6. Cleaning acne face
If you've bought all sorts of expensive facial cleansers but your pimples don't disappear, don't scrub them with the sand paper Try to use Listerine. Apply a little all over the face every morning and night. Those stubborn acne will shrink and disappear. Now you look different from the road.
7. Slaying germs in brush teeth
You guys always brush your teeth to remove dirt and germs in your teeth, but what if the brush you use is a gummer? Put some Listerine into a glass and soak your toothbrush for 2-3 hours to kill all the germs. Then you can use it without being waisted.
8. Clean up tv screen or computer monitor
Spray some Listerine on the cloth and apply it on your TV screen or computer monitor. Guaranteed that all dust and fingerprint effects will be lost in a blink of an eye. CSI Las Vegas won't make it to any case.
9. Removes bad odor in the trash can.
If you're really lazy to wash the garbage bin in the house and you don't like the bad smell of trash, take the cloth that is not used and soak with some Listerine. Then cover the barrel by putting the cloth on it. The listerine was going to absorb the smell.
10. Relieve your leg problems
Pour Listerine into the tub and mix some water and white vinegar. Soak your feet for 30 minutes into the tub. All the fungi and germs that cause your feet to smell bad and stinky will disappear. Even the leg skin will be prettier and healthier. Then you'll deserve to wear Adidas NMD shoes.
These are some other ways of using Listerine. You guys can try. If you're not diligent to try, buy the Listerine for age.

Little Nightmares 2 X Ray Machine Puzzle - How to Get Key hidden in a stuffed animal
Go past the elevator into the X-ray room. You’ll notice by the drawings on the wall that a key is hidden in a stuffed animal, which is in the next room. Unfortunately, even though it’s hidden in the stuffed bear in the photo, it’s actually in a different stuffed animal now. You’ll have to check out each one in the X-ray, but you’ll eventually find it in the Once you have the one with the key, grab it and head into the elevator right outside this room. This will take you down to an incinerator. So exit the elevator and head right. Push the stuffed animal in the hole, then pull the lever. Once it’s done, hop back in and grab the key. Then, take the elevator back up and head up to the room with the locked door on the second level to the right of the staircase. Open it up and head inside.

Thank you SO Stretch for helping me with my decade old problem. Thank you Muhammad Zaki and friends, my SO Stretch Physiotherapists.
Until today I'm still a little shocked. The shoulder pain that I have been having for over a decade has subsided to a point that I have stopped realizing that there is pain anymore. Of course, not a 100% yet, I only went once at the time I'm writing this.
I used to teach and practice Taekwondo when I was younger. During competitions, kicks to the head is double the points of kicks to the body. The constant blow to my head over time has caused a small part of my cervical to moved a little causing a nerve pinch on the nerve that goes from my left shoulder all the way to ring finger (4th finger) and the pain resonates around my entire left shoulder blade. This has also caused frequent severe migraines on the left side of my head. I've undergone many different treatments from east to west but nothing has given much relief. Normal physio, tit tar, acupuncture, qigong, tuina, paida, heat therapy, even special prayers, you name it.
Everyone who knows me knows that I always lean a little to my left side due to the pain. They also know I always have migraine on my left side of head. And I constantly rub my back against any edge of the walls I can find anywhere, like an animal cleaning its fur.
Yesterday, I went to So Stretch and Zaki, one of their physiotherapist assisted me. Together with the help of his teammates, we did a lot of pretty intense assisted stretches which I can never perform on my own. Some of them were quite difficult because my shoulder has been as stiff as rock for over a decade. After the session, I felt pretty sore on the shoulder area but the past pulling sensation were reduced. But, today for an entire day, I couldn't help it but to realize that a bulk of the pain is not present anymore. There is still a mild pain deep within my shoulder when I lift my shoulder toward my ear. Looking forward for my next few stretching sessions, but here is my simple thank you letter for now.
Update : Pain is mostly gone now. Just a little muscle spasm left from time to time.
In case you have a pain like mine, try them :
