内容梗概
25名中国最有权力的中国人,而且多数人穿着一样的黑夹克,挤坐在白色的空间裡,尤如一叶方舟上的茫然不知未来的逃亡者。
这是中共宣传工具发出的一张照片, 是习近平率领他的政治局成员,观看人民日报是如何准备面对今年的风险。
这是1989年六四事件以来,中共最恐惧的一年。但什么是中共预计的最坏情况呢? 当人们对未来,对中共,对领导人失去了信心,一切最坏的情况都会发生。而中共,这些年在积极往这个方向推进。
今天在菲律宾,死伤惨重的连环恐袭并没有引起世界特别的关注。这个美国曾经的殖民地,为什么从繁荣走向衰败,民主永远在泥潭中?人们记得麦克阿瑟「我回来了」的英姿,却忘了他如何抛弃同袍和菲律宾人。
不过,菲律宾裔在亚裔中领先融入美国社会。而在加拿大,一位菲律宾媒体巨子之后,在担任《多伦多星报》营运总裁时,策划收购了《星岛日报》。
昨天,深怀理想的《多伦多星报》记者赵淇欣一战成名,一再失言的加拿大驻华大使麦家廉因为赵女士的报导,迫使总理杜鲁多痛下开除他的决心。
麦家廉原本是为了营救被中共报复孟晚舟而难的加拿大人向中共献媚,但是,法治是加拿大不可损坏的文明基石。
揭露政客的真面目,是媒体人的天职。昨天是麦家廉的悲剧,却是赵淇欣的荣耀。
美国媒体人与有荣焉吗,他们在污名中是否再显水门事件的荣光?

Over the weekend, a deadly bombing in the Philippines killed at least 20. Pin Ho @nyhopin of @MingjingNews offers his condolences & concern for the steady deterioration of the quality of the nation's democracy. (01:22)
Ho also applauds Joanna Chiu, deputy bureau chief of Toronto Star, for her journalistic brilliance. The publishing of a quote from the former Canadian ambassador John McCallum eventually led to his resignation. In an exclusive interview, McCallum said that it would be “great for Canada” if US could relinquish its attempt to extradite Meng Wanzhou. Ho thinks that it's journalists' responsibility and honor to hold public figures accountable. (05:31)
Finally, in rent days, a photo of Xi sitting with dozens of top Chinese officials all dressed in dark grey suits made quite a splash on social media. Ho shares his thoughts on what the picture alludes to. Ho also mentions that the worst thing that can happen to a govt is for its people to lose confidence in every aspect of its governance, and that PRC may be heading in that direction. (22:41)
ICYMI: Our incredible colleague @SummerC4 did an exclusive interview earlier with Joanna Chiu on her thoughts about the arrest of Michael Krovig. Check it out!
