If “ Hong Kong Connection ” were a tree, how old would it be? It was on 5 March, 1978 that the documentary series first went on the air in Chinese. As the series continues, its staff are determined to go on uncovering and delving into every local and international topic that concerns the people in Hong Kong, whether it be political, economic, educational, commercial, environmental or technological. A tree plays an important environmental role in refreshing the air that we breathe and holding from the earth on which we stand. It is Hong Kong Connection's mission to provide the public with information and analyses as well as an opportunity for rational discussion. The programme is aired every Thursday evening on TVB Pearl at 19:00-19:30 (3 Oct. 2013 - 27 March 2014)
Live webcast: Thursday HKT 2100 - 2130

Some people have launched a consumer campaign to buy at yellow stores and boycott blue shops, hoping to support businesses of the same ilk in this economic doldrums. Politics have encroached on the hitherto apolitical HK business scene. How are businessmen coping? Are political stances now integral to market considerations?

Remembering
In mid-June 1989, after the military moved into Tiananmen Square to clear the protestors, numbers of unarmed civilians were killed in the crackdown. Beijing Public Security Bureau issued a most-wanted circular, bearing the names and photographs of 21 student leaders.

The Tiananmen Mothers have relentlessly continued with their demands: to know the truth, to receive compensation for the losses, and the accountability of those responsible for the mass killings whose exact figure is still unknown. However, China, which has never provided any explanation or answered to the family members, has tried hard to silence those who want to speak about the mayhem.06/12/2019收看 -
