The new crown pneumonia epidemic continued, and the government raided the enclosure of the 10th South Horizons Peninsula on Friday (23rd) night.

As of 2 a.m., about 950 people had completed testing and had no confirmed diagnosis.

The building was unsealed at 7:30 in the morning, and some residents left one after another, including students who had taken the diploma exam, and rushed to the examination room to take the exam after it was unsealed.

Some residents said that the testing process went smoothly last night and it took about half an hour; but some people said that they had to wait in line for testing, plus worry about the results, and could not sleep all night.

Yu Junxi, a member of the Southern District District Council who serves the district, said that last night, he received about two enquiries about taking the diploma exam. There were also children who had a gathering at a friend’s house last night, but suddenly the district was closed and could not leave. Finally, parents were required to be there to accompany them. Trapped overnight in a friend's house.

At 7:30 in the morning, there were still more than 10 households at the scene that had not been tested, and residents still went downstairs for testing.

Some candidates who took the HKDSE exam left Block 10 at about 7:30, but they did not respond to questions, and some staff left with two foreign children.

District Councillor Yu Junxi said that the two children gathered at a friend's house in Block 10 last night and could not leave because the area was closed.

He said that there was a similar case last night, with parents living elsewhere, and finally they had to go to Block 10 to accompany the children attending the party.

He also said that last night, he received about two enquiries about entrance examination for the HKDSE, mainly about the arrangements for entrance examination after the release of the seal. Residents received the SMS as early as about 6 in the morning.

Residents said that the test until 12 o'clock in the evening: a small inconvenience

Resident Mr. Liu said that the government has announced zero tests and confirmed that they still have to check SMS and ID cards when they are dissatisfied with leaving.

Resident Mr. Mok had to go to work in the morning, thinking that the test would affect his life. "The test is about 12 o'clock, I usually sleep at 10 o'clock, and Chengri hangs up and doesn't know something is wrong. I don't think it is good." He said. Last night, I waited for the test for about half an hour. "It’s not too much trouble, but it’s a little bit convenient." He also said that because the authorities believe that unidentified cases need to be tested, "I don’t want to talk to us. Just do it."

Mr. Liu is dissatisfied that he has to check his ID card and SMS when he leaves.

Residents have to take the test today to receive SMS at 3 am

Ms. Leung took the non-Diploma Examination today. She was waiting for the test at about 8 o'clock last night, and finally received a text message at 3 o'clock in the morning.

She was worried about affecting the exam, but luckily she went to the exam smoothly.

Mr. Guo said that he is satisfied with the arrangement of the closure, because the 10th block has been confirmed for the second time, he believes that it is necessary to compulsory testing for residents.

He pointed out that the testing process is smooth and it takes about half an hour without waiting.

He said that he would consider vaccination in the future.

Another resident, Mrs. Tian, ​​said that the testing process is smooth and the waiting time is about 20 minutes, which is faster than expected.

She said that although there is no confirmed case, because there are cases of no source, she agrees to mandatory testing.

Ms. Leung received a text message early in the morning because she was waiting for the test early.

District Councillors hope to strengthen communication and give clear instructions

Yu Junxi said that police cars and government personnel had inspected the area before the closure last night, but the other party denied that there was an arrangement for the closure, but the neighbourhood has seen the clues and believes that there is no need for the government to make surprises, and it is actually impossible to do so.

He believes that the government should have better communication with district councils and management companies.

Lin Haobo, also a member of the Southern District District Council, said that the process went smoothly last night, but some residents reported that it was difficult to inquire about the situation with the authorities. They had to obtain instructions through the district councilors' assistance. He believed that the authorities should give clearer instructions for the arrangement.
