After major radio stations in Hong Kong were asked to play the national anthem every morning, the outer wall of the radar station at Tai Mo Shan, the highest peak in Hong Kong, was recently found to be painted in red with simplified Chinese characters such as “Listen to the Party and follow the Party” and “Strict law and discipline,” while the slope of the hill was painted with what looked like the Chinese Communist flag, as if it were a Chinese government building.
News from the French media on Jan. 9 revealed that some people took photos as a souvenir, but many also expressed their dissatisfaction online with bringing the Party culture of mainland China to Hong Kong. There are comments that, as the Chinese government integrates Hong Kong into the mainland, the red party culture will become increasingly common from the dark to the light.
It is reported that the radar station at the top of Tai Mo Shan is a restricted area, suspected to be granted by the Hong Kong government to the PLA in Hong Kong ten years ago, but the Security Bureau refused to disclose more specific information on the grounds of military secrets. However, the place has been wearing camouflage uniforms people walking around inside, there are also vehicles with Hong Kong Garrison license plates, generally believe that the place has been the PLA radar station.
The exterior of the buildings on military land in Hong Kong used to be the same as other buildings of the Hong Kong government, in addition to the national flag national emblem and district flag district emblem, and no political slogans and propaganda slogans common in mainland China, so as not to touch the nerves of Hong Kong people. But a netizen posted on social media a few days ago, saying “Tai Mo Shan has fallen”, with pictures, saying that a few days ago to the upper site found someone is on the outside wall in simplified Chinese characters painted “Listen to the Party and follow the Party”. Later, some media went to the upper site and found that, in addition to the high part of the building’s exterior wall, the lower exterior wall was also painted with the simplified Chinese characters “法纪严风气正” in red, and a stone kerb on the road had the words “忠忠坚毅” handwritten in yellow; the other side of the hill was painted with five stars similar to the Chinese Communist flag. The other side of the hill is painted with a five-star picture similar to the Chinese Communist flag.
According to the information, in 2011, the PLA in Hong Kong was granted 100,000 square feet of land by the Hong Kong government, but it was only in 2014 that it was revealed by the media that a new radar station and related facilities had been set up at the top of Tai Mo Shan for the use of the troops in Hong Kong. When questioned by legislators from the democratic camp at the meeting, then Secretary for Security Lai Tung-kwok only admitted that the site was not among the 19 military sites agreed by the British and Chinese governments to be handed over to the PLA forces in Hong Kong for use after the handover, and that the site had been government land for the installation of different communication devices, but the garrison’s “defense operations involved military secrets that could not be disclosed. It is not convenient to announce. Later, a military commentator was quoted by the media as saying that the radar station at Tai Mo Shan is a large radio signal listening station set up by the PLA Garrison in Hong Kong, and all cell phone and Wi-Fi radio transmissions can be intercepted by the listening station.
