世貿透視:公義、偽善、真相、假象

Posted in 大 城 小 景 by xina

(轉載自: 黎廣德.香港可持續發展公民議會主席)

世貿第六次部長级會議結束。塵埃落定後,在香港人的腦海中只會交織着以下的印象:

WTO 壹周刊照片曾蔭權元首式開幕詞的君臨天下、維園集會的多元文化嘉年華、韓國農民三步一叩首的悲情、歐美代表的冷漠高傲、非政府組織聲嘶力竭的控訴、灣仔淪陷的驚心動魄、曾俊華宣佈大功告成的躊躇滿志………。

一週過去、一切依舊、紅隧如常擠塞,這就是香港人的世貿?

事實上、在一大堆陌生名詞的背后 - 「公平貿易」、「出口補貼」、「市場准入」、「綠箱」、「黄箱」、「國內援助」、「瑞士公式」- 是無數活生生的農民、工人、消費者、企業經營者,賴以維持生計及改善生活質素的遊戲規則。

Street tango

Posted in 大 城 小 景 by xina


Weekend nite along the tsim sha tsui waterfront promenade is a surprise… haven’t been there at holiday nite for many years… kinda afraid it would be too crowded, too noisy, too touristic… Last nite, a friend told me there would be some tango enthusiasts dancing there; I like to experiment with my new canon ixus 550 camera too, so i went there…

Erotic music, gliding steps… suddenly the toilet-like tile (all our public places are covered by similar tile) turn into pebble sidewalk somewhere in argentina… My eyes follow their feet to turn round and round, hoping to grasp the steps… but harder i try to remember, more confused i am… Maybe we should forget our brain and let our body lead when we dance?
On another spot, we have the cross-over of chinese 2-string (二胡), guitar and drum, an old women sings some chinese folk songs… Anyone want to sing can just join in the chorus… Strange is that most music performers are old people, while young peole are by-standers, shy ones, only other old and mainland audience dare to join the show spontaneously…

In another performing circle, a wizard dance with a tribal singer! again both are elderly people…ohoh… How strange is this city — old people are far crazier and more fun-loving than young ones!!??

搭 棚 工 作 才 是 真 真 正 正 的 雜 技 師 ! 只 須 三 數 日 , 他 們 便 建 好 一 幅 包 圍 高 樓 大 廈 的 竹 棚 架… 這 也 展 示 大 自 然 的 力 量 哩 ! 竹 具 有 剛 柔 並 重 的 性 格 , 能 承 受 重 壓 , 亦 有 柔 韌 的 彈 力 , 她 們 還 長 得 很 快…

Greatwall Rave Party

Posted in 大 城 小 景 by xina

I am speechless after reading the Next magazine report on the Rave party at the Great Wall… What a shame…

The party was held at 18km from Beijing city, at the famous “Golden Mountain Ridge” section of the Great Wall…

A fleet of over 1,500 party soldiers occupied the Great Wall tonight, armed with them 2 mega size video walls and drumming sound systems, with DJ playing music in the middle…

Several sexy party girls get to some hidden corners to exchange marijuana leafs… and people dance wildly in the party…. Well-prepared party goers even take with them tents… where they can… hoho…

Outdoor rave party was first organized at the Great Wall since 1998. That got so hot and more rave parties have been organized in many other famous heritage sites in China, including at the Qing Imperial Tomb, and the Stone Forest in Kuming of Yunnan…

Usually held in July, Great Wall rave party became a big annual function now, where locals and foreigners get themselves mingled by electronic music!
