This morning (21st) the police arrested Lin Wenzong, the former executive editor of Apple Daily, on suspicion of "conspiring to collude with foreign countries or foreign forces to endanger national security", and revoked the bail arrangements of former Apple Daily deputy director Chen Peimin and former chief writer Feng Weiguang. .


Chen Langsheng, chairman of the Hong Kong Journalists Association, said in an interview with Emily Liu, former chairman of the Democratic Party, that he was puzzled by the police's arrest of editors and editors again. The police still cannot explain the reasons for the arrest.

Research grants relief money to former Apple reporters who are not a member of the Association of Journalists

Emily Liu asked in the program how the Hong Kong Journalists Association assisted the unemployed former "Apple" reporters.

Chen Langsheng described the matter as complicated. Because the threshold for applying for unemployment benefits is relatively high, applicants must be a member of the Association for at least one year and be unemployed for 3 months. After that, they will be approved by the Executive Committee before they can receive the benefits for a period of 3 months. , A monthly relief fund of 3,000 yuan.

Chen Langsheng pointed out that many former "Apple" reporters are not members of the Association of Journalists. According to the "Regulations on Trade Unions", because former "Apple" reporters have lost their work background, if these reporters cannot join the Association, the Association of Journalists will not be able to provide relief assistance. The Association of Journalists will hold a general meeting to allow non-members of the Association to apply for relief funds.
