Today (21th), another group opened a silver-haired rally entitled "Name and Shame to End Political Remuneration" in the open space of the Edinburgh City Hall in Central. They objected to recent reports that Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yue'e would be elected to part of the establishment. District councillors have given public office as compensation, criticizing the move as political retribution, and stated that if public institutions, etc., use political remuneration to appoint unsuccessful constitutionalists to enter the board of directors or decision-making or grant positions, they will initiate actions and stop everything Donations, cooperation, etc.

The rally was held from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm and a notice of no objection had been issued by the police.

[17:00] The meeting announced the end of the rally. The conference stated that a total of 1,000 people attended the rally throughout the day.

[16:50] There was a teacher arrested for anti-revision movements, and Luo Peili, a district council candidate who was a teacher in Tuen Mun's Jiansheng District, criticized the government for deliberately making things difficult for teachers to speak up. She pointed out that as a teacher, she would definitely stand by the students and would not forsake the seats with them. She questioned why the Education Bureau used such an effort to investigate teachers' actions, but did not care if students were injured or would suffer from trauma sequelae.

District Councillor Zhang Wenlong of Kwai Tsing Tsing Yi District expressed that he hoped to achieve inclusiveness between the two generations. The two generations knew each other. He pointed out that the majority of elderly people in their constituencies supported many democratic people in support of the democratic movement.

District Councillor Hu Suishan in Yau Ma Tei pointed out that if Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yue'e allocated the elected legislators to various committees, it would obviously be difficult to get along with the voters and would cause public outrage.

The Italian tenor Stefano Lodola, who sang "Wish Glory Belongs to Hong Kong" in Cantonese at the demonstration site, took to the stage to sing several adapted Christmas songs in Cantonese, and the lyrics content criticized Lin Zhengyue'e and the police for abuse of power.

[16:00] Li Guoquan, a District Council candidate for the Southern District of Yau Tsim Mong, said that this election is full of flavors, because the district ’s turnout rate was low in the past elections, but this time it was from 33% in the past to this election. Over 70%. He pointed out that the elected members of this year have a heavy responsibility, and quoted the film "Rocky", saying that the most important thing to lower your opponent is not how much power your fist can give, but how much you can withstand multiple blows.

He also pointed out that in the past, everyone generally thought that the elders were conservative, and this silver-haired assembly can show to the outside world that it is the mainstream opinion of silver-haired people to support democracy.

[15:30] Shao Jiazhen, a member of the Legislative Council, expressed his gratitude to nearly 6,000 people who had supported the detained demonstrators in the Lai Chi Kok Reception Centre. Demonstrators said supporters could be heard reading the beliefs sent to them in the detention facility.

He said that this issue has continued to spread from anti-revision to universal suffrage. He reminded demonstrators not to describe political remuneration as "political comprehensive assistance" because the relevant statements may make people's impression of "CSSA" worse. Inadvertently affected the grassroots of society.

[15:20] Zeng Jiancheng, a candidate for the District Councillor of Lekang, Chai Wan, said that the victory of the democrats in this election was a seat exchanged by the protesters. He followed the masses for the past six months. Sacrifice, wounded and arrested demonstrators meditate for 1 minute. He urged the government to fully disclose the numbers of the demonstrators' injuries and the blue water composition of the blue water cannon car. He also criticized Zheng Ruoxuan for wantonly prosecuting the demonstrators, but ignored the police brutality.

[15:15] Tsui Wan Litao District District Council Member-elect Xie Maoze said that he hopes that the voter turnout rate in the future will maintain this year's momentum. Even if one of the five major demands is won, citizens will continue to speak out for other social issues. He believes that the functions of many government advisory committees are redundant and redundant. In today's society, the government can easily collect citizens' opinions and consider these political rewards redundant.

[15:06] About 200 people attended the meeting. When Leung Kwok-ho, a district constituency member of Cheung Chau, Islands District, took the stage, he reminded other elected constituencies to listen to criticism from the outside world and the public, as members may "change" during their term of office and forget their original intentions. He also pointed out that citizens should take into account the yellow economic circle when entering and leaving the country. Although it is inconvenient, they should insist. The more the officials criticize the yellow economic circle, the more they reflect the effectiveness of this approach.

[14:55] Chen Zhenzhe, a District Council Member-designate of Lincun Valley, Tai Po, said that many citizens were "Hong Kong pigs" in the past, but today they need to be aware of "walking out" and participating in all aspects of the community. He encouraged owners to participate in owners' corporations and mutual aid committees, and parents could participate in school councils to avoid being monopolized by the establishment school and become the base for the establishment school's "snake flat cake". He emphasized not to place the burden on district councillors only. I hope that I can ignore what I can do if I vote.

[14:33] Fan Guowei, who was canceled the seat of the Legislative Council, came to the stage to speak, citing the cancellation of the seat as one of the challenges in his political career. He had long been expected to be suppressed. He criticized the Hong Kong government for suppressing the assembly of Hong Kong people And freedom of expression. Public posts that were originally used to make up for the deficiencies of the parliament, such as advisory committees, were used to "compensate" the defeated formations. He also urged the elected Democratic District Councillors to do a good job in the region and serve Hong Kong people, because every ballot has "blood and tears."

[14:16] Long Xin appeared at the "Silver Haired" rally and brought the Chinese flag across the rally. They screamed at the audience and left after 10 minutes of disturbance.

[13:52] Chen Zhiquan, member of the People ’s Power ’s Legislative Council, and Chen Shuzhuang of the Citizen Party came to the stage to thank the silver-haired people for their efforts and encouraged citizens to write to arrested demonstrators in prison so that they know they have not been forgotten. In addition, Chen Shuzhuang used the example of "Political Remuneration" by Liu Jianghua, the director of the Hong Kong Home Affairs Bureau and Cai Ruolian, the deputy director of the Education Bureau. She was defeated when she was elected to the Legislative Council in 2016. She was also employed by the government as the Deputy Secretary for Education.

[13:49] Chen Baoqiong, a district constituency candidate for the Quarry Bay constituency in the Eastern District, took the stage, saying that the public office is capable, and said that she had also held a public office in the Department of Health. If the government appoints a public office to those who are abandoned by voters, it is equivalent to suffocating voters. She also hopes that in the future, the Eastern District Council will be transparent in its deliberations and invite more citizens to participate.

[13:35] The General Assembly read a letter from the arrested person in the anti-revision to the Hong Kong people. The writer stated that he was a college student arrested on November 2. In the letter, he was grateful to every Hong Kong demonstrator who was willing to come out to confront and hoped that everyone would stick to it. When he wanted to give up, he said that he thought of the people who died in this movement, the people in prison, and kept his faith and died. People recover justice, eluting grievances for those in prison.

[13:10] Tan Guoxin (Tan Sir), the representative of the silver-haired, said the rally officially started. He said that after the district council elections that have just ended, the democratic factions have taken the lead in 17 districts and have achieved the "restoration of district councils." Then read the declaration of the conference, saying that if Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yue'e appointed some public officials to compensate the lost constitutionalists, it would completely distort public opinion, political remuneration, and personal acceptance, making the election meaningless.
