Liu Miaohua said that she had assisted Liu Guoxun in the counting of votes in the election, but emphasized that she had no political color and "every current district councilor would help scare", but she stated that many residents who participated in the road blocking this time were supported by the establishment Others, including Liu Guoxun, assisted in the selection of volunteer members. "This time there is no difference between blue and yellow, everyone must work together to stop it."

However, she urged roadblockers to let garbage trucks enter Yongsheng Garden. "The estate has not dumped garbage for two days. If garbage trucks cannot enter, what should we do with the garbage?"

Liu Guoxun said that after being aware of the government's plan to keep Huiming Court for quarantine, he strongly opposed the plan and was collecting residents' signatures to protest. He stated that this time the establishment will not support the government and ask the government to withdraw the plan.
