The Democratic Party, which has not been able to hold a fundraising dinner for several years, was originally scheduled to hold a spring tea at a restaurant in Kwai Chung at 7:00 tonight (21st), to gather with party members and friends, and not to involve any fundraising activities.

However, the Democratic Party received a notification from the person in charge of the restaurant this afternoon that the dinner market was suspended due to a failure of the kitchen ventilation system, which caused the gas to fail. The Democratic Party was forced to cancel the dinner again.

It is reported that the Democratic Party’s spring dinner was originally booked in the banquet hall of a hotel in Tseung Kwan O. It was also the venue where the then Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor attended the Democratic Party’s fundraising dinner in 2018. Only a restaurant in a housing estate can book a dinner.

The Democratic Party responded to the incident, saying that it was originally planned to hold a spring dinner to socialize with about 200 friends and neighbors, but the restaurant suddenly notified in the afternoon that it was unable to provide a venue due to unexpected construction, and the spring dinner could not be held as scheduled.

The Democratic Party thanks all neighbors who have purchased tickets to the dinner and apologizes for the inconvenience.

The chairman of the Democratic Party, Law Kin-hee, regretted the incident and revealed that it was difficult to find a venue.

He said that in January, it was rejected by the hotel that had already hosted it. Later, another hotel was willing to host the Democratic Party dinner, but two days before the banquet (February 19), it suddenly and unilaterally announced the need for urgent repairs.

Finally, another restaurant hosted a dinner on Monday (February 20), but in the end, two hours before today's dinner, it was said that it needed urgent maintenance and could not provide the venue.

He It means that all parties in the society should think about why such a coincidence?

Why is there such an atmosphere?

What are the benefits of such an atmosphere to society?

He also said that he would find another venue to hold the Spring Dinner as soon as possible.

The Democratic Party also booked another restaurant to hold an annual fundraising banquet in July last year, and invited party members and supporters to participate.

However, before the banquet, the restaurant stated that "there was a group of confirmed cases near the venue, and it had to be closed for cleaning and not open for business." The Democratic Party pointed out that it was difficult to find an alternative venue in the short term, and eventually postponed the event.

The Democratic Party was notified that the nearby outbreak canceled the fundraising banquet. The restaurant is now open as usual: the air conditioner was repaired on the same day, and the DAB supported it, and then issued consumer coupons to drive consumption.
