Tokyo Olympics to be cancelled? Still open HK borders with Mainland—enraging local citizens. @Michael_Yon, @GordonGChang
Image: The opening ceremony of the first modern Olympic Games in the Panathenaic Stadium (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panathenaic_Stadium) Michael Yon, The Truth behind Historical Fictions, just published in Japan in Japanese (only); in re: Behind the News in China, 1930s book, on how Chinese constantly lift an shift to blame others. An insecure one-party state—economically, technically. The CCP of December 2019 is already dead in that form as the economy has collapsed and their prestige is collapsed. The Jan 11 Taiwan election: people standing up to the CCP. In Hong Kong much self-quarantining; impossible to buy masks; schools postponed till mid-April at earliest (more likely June), and I’d strongly guess that the Olympics will be cancelled. All this has created even more anti-Mainland sentiment. Carrie Lam has forced the borders between HK and Mainland to stay open – extremely dangerous and is enraging Hong Kong citizens.
