Kamis, 10 Oktober 2024 14:38 WIB
Hong Kong--(ANTARA/Business Wire)-- Eco Expo Asia 2024, yang diselenggarakan bersama-sama oleh Hong Kong Trade Development Council dan Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd serta didukung oleh Environment and Ecology Bureau dari Pemerintah Daerah Administratif Khusus Hong Kong, akan diluncurkan dari tanggal 30 Oktober hingga 2 November di AsiaWorld-Expo di Hong Kong, bersama dengan layanan pencocokan online “Click2Match” yang tersedia pada tanggal 23 Oktober – 9 November.
Eco Expo Asia menjanjikan peluang yang tak tertandingi bagi pelaku industri, pejabat pemerintah, akademisi, dan masyarakat umum untuk terlibat dalam kemajuan terkini di bidang keberlanjutan dan teknologi hijau.

Beberapa provinsi dan kota, termasuk Guangdong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Guangxi, Hunan, Shanghai, Mongolia Dalam, dan Anhui yang baru berpartisipasi, akan tampil dengan paviliun pada edisi tahun ini. Perwakilan dari daerah-daerah ini akan menyajikan teknologi inovatif yang ditujukan untuk mengatasi tantangan lingkungan yang kritis. Partisipasi grup internasional pun sama kuatnya. Selain kembalinya Kanada, Finlandia, dan Belanda, Norwegia yang baru bergabung makin memperkaya dialog global tentang keberlanjutan.
Eco Asia Conference yang terkemuka dan Hydrogen Economy Forum kelima akan dihadiri oleh pejabat pemerintah, pemimpin industri, dan pakar dari berbagai negara untuk berbagi wawasan mereka tentang topik-topik utama, termasuk keberlanjutan dan teknologi hijau. Pejabat pemerintah dari negara-negara ASEAN serta negara-negara Inisiatif Belt and Road, seperti Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, dan Vietnam berpartisipasi dan menunjukkan dukungan mereka terhadap konferensi tersebut.

Matthew Tsang: Becoming a JEDI Marketer!
Marketing and communications professionals working in higher education are more conscious than most that they serve incredibly diverse audiences and stakeholders, and of the vital importance of equity and inclusion. (Today’s students can quickly become outspoken protestors in the face of what they perceive as injustice.)
This week, Ken Steele sits down with Matthew Tsang, co-founder of inclusive communications agency AndHumanity, to discuss what he calls “JEDI” principles of Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. “Justice is at the forefront for us,” Matthew explains. His agency, and the cause of inclusive marketing, grew in prominence in the wake of George Floyd’s death in May 2020.
“Inclusive marketing is elevating underrepresented voices, not about including everyone all the time.” The key is to ensure that you’re not defaulting to the dominant culture - because GenZ and GenAlpha have heightened awareness of diversity, and greater expectations that marketers will represent it in their work with cultural competency. Communicators have a moral responsibility to contribute to improving society by not just avoiding stereotypes, but by incorporating counter-stereotypical messages.
Too many marketers fail at inclusion when they forget that people are intersectional, and effectively centre the dominant culture of a broader community. “We’re all complex human beings, and we can’t be checked off in a box.” The specialists at AndHumanity always encourage really deep storytelling with intersectional nuance, rather than reinforcing stereotypes or generalizations about a community.
It's also vitally important to include a broad diversity of people with lived experience in the writing and creative process: “Nothing about us without us.” This mistake causes some obvious, egregious mistakes – and it’s not sufficient to consult people, they need to feel psychologically safe expressing their feelings.
Marketers and communicators need to avoid a fear-based approach, simply focused on avoiding causing offense. “Is this safe to say? is a very check-boxy approach.” A fear-based approach most often results in “very diluted, boring, uninspirational work” that is inoffensive, yes, but also forgettable. Institutions should also focus on “going deep” into specific dates of significance, telling deep culturally-nuanced stories, rather than spreading their efforts wide at superficial recognition of a broad range of dates.
Matthew’s advice to anyone who wants to reinforce their intercultural competence is to deliberately follow 5-10 people on social media who have different lived experiences from you yourself, or who specialize in JEDI issues. Even when watching TV shows or movies, it can be valuable to watch content about protagonists with different dimensions of identity than yourself. “I don’t think it has to be difficult… but this is a good first step.”
Members of Eduvation’s MarCom, CMO, and Guild Circles are invited to attend a free workshop on inclusive marketing and communications for higher education, led by Matthew and the AndHumanity team, on October 24 2024. (If you’re not a member, you can sign up for a free trial at https://circles.eduvation.ca/landing/plans/232788 )

Supercop (1992)
Let me preface this review by saying that we’re talking about the U.S. version of the film, which runs 4 minutes shorter than the original version. Since the film is known here simply as Supercop I was also unaware that it is the third in a series. Does it matter? Maybe, but the film stands on its own and delivers plenty of laughs along with the incredible stunts and action.
To infiltrate the criminal organization of drug lord Chaibat (Kenneth Tsang), Interpol requests Hong Kong’s “supercop”: “Kevin” Chan Ka-Kui (Jackie Chan). To infiltrate Chaibat's operation, Ka-Kui and Inspector Jessica Yang (Michelle Yeoh), helps one of Chaibat’s key henchmen (Panther, played by Yuen Wah) escape from prison.
When you pick up a Jackie Chan film, what you care about first and foremost are the stunts. The man’s a charismatic actor but no matter how much work is poured into the story or characters, they’re all secondary to kicks, punches and acrobatics. It’s surprising then, that Supercop features a robust story. It’s nothing deep, but we often see excuses to move us from one battle to the next disguised as plots. Not here. There is tension, twists and plenty of intrigue as Ka-Kui and Jessica infiltrate Chaibat’s organization, which helps their cause but also puts them in increasingly serious danger. Their undercover mission also makes for some good laughs, particularly in a scene where Ka-Kui’s girlfriend, May (Maggie Cheung), suspects he is having an affair. It’s goofy stuff and has you chuckling until the criminal business comes back and shifts the genre again. Good stuff.
The stunts featured here are on a level you’re not used to seeing. In Yeoh, Chan has met his match and it looks like they're obsessed with one-upping each other as we draw closer and closer to the film’s big climax: a spectacular finale that’s a must for any fan of action films. Not only does Yeoh play a wonderful straight woman to Chan’s perpetually befuddled and bumbling role, she’s more than capable of keeping up with him physically. The real winners in this competition is us.
You’ll want to stick around for the end credits of Supercop to see several bloopers that prove just how arduous (and impressive) the chases, kicks, punches and jumps truly are. The comedy is effective, the characters likable and the plot engaging. Even the dubbing is quite good. It’s one to seek out. (On VHS, April 14, 2018)

FredFilms promises...
Creators first.
I've always believed that we owe you, our fans and now at FredFilms we all take it as gospel. We owe you our best work, of course. But beyond we examine everything about ourselves constantly, to assure ourselves and you that we’re trying to stay on the right track. To that end, whatever work I’ve done –whether it be in the music business, the network television business, and certainly, cartoons– has been done with making public promises that try and assure you that we’ll deliver.
To that end, I thought it would be good to print out a new set of our limited edition postcards to make the FredFilms promises completely clear. This one’s the first.
As throughout my entire cartoon career, and now at FredFilms, it’s been my mission to let exceptional creators do their thing. We’re not in the business of micro-managing our creative talent. Instead, we seek out and nurture creators who have a story they need to tell and give them as much room as possible to tell it.. We go to festivals, art schools, comedy clubs, and explore the dustiest corners of the internet to find folks we know we have to work with.
We believe there are new stories to be told.
We promise.
.....
It might seem extreme, but I thought it might be interesting to list all of the creators that have worked on my productions, starting in 1995 with What A Cartoon! at Hanna-Barbera and Cartoon Network in 1995. If you look at any of the 140 individual links (!) you’ll see that almost all of them have had estimable careers in cartoons or animation adjacent (comics, video games, VFX and the like). Some have created hit series with me, some without (sigh!) and some have become quite famous. One way or the other, they’ve all been amazing.

0015: PRO-DEM. In one of the first results of the night, pro-democracy Civic Party candidate Joshua Li says on Facebook he has received over 4,000 votes, almost guaranteeing that he has taken the previously pro-Beijing seat in Mei Foo North constituency, Sham Shui Po.

0050: PRO-DEM. Demosisto has confirmed to HKFP that Kelvin Chan — replacing the disqualified Joshua Wong — has beaten incumbent pro-Beijing councillor Judy Chan in South Horizons West.
0054: PRO-DEM. Pro-democracy barrister Lau Wai-chung has beaten the incumbent Liberal Party’s Dominic Lee in the wealthy Yau Yat Tsuen constituency of Sham Shui Po.
0058: PRO-DEM. Democrat Paul Zimmerman has retained his seat in Pokfulam.
0101: The final voter turnout for the 2019 District Council election has been estimated at 71.2 percent, with just under 3 million casting their votes.
0104: PRO-DEM. Several more pro-democracy victories are reported in Wanchai, and InMedia estimates that the local council will have a pro-democracy majority, as in 2003-07. However, pro-Beijing legislator Paul Tse has narrowly retained his seat.
0107: PRO-DEM. Democratic Party candidate Li Shee-lin is victorious in Wah Fu South, a constituency where the pro-democracy camp lost by a mere three votes in 2015.
0112: PRO-DEM. Chinese medicine practitioner Kwan Ka-lun has taken a traditionally pro-Beijing seat in Whampoa East, which later legislator Yau Wai-ching failed to take back in 2015.
0113: PRO-DEM. Former journalist Lee Ka-Wai has also won in the traditionally pro-Beijing Fu Sun constituency of Tuen Mun.

0120: PRO-DEM. NowTV reports that pro-democracy protest organiser Jimmy Sham — targeted twice in hit-and-run attacks — has won in Lek Yuen, Shatin. The district has previously been discriminated against for an apparently high mainland immigrant population.

0158: PRO-DEM. Former HKU postgraduate student activist Michael Mo has won in Sam Shing constituency, Tuen Mun.
0202: PRO-DEM. The Democratic Party's Lo Kin-hei has retained his seat in Lei Tung (II) constituency in Hong Kong Island South.
0204: PRO-BEIJING. Pro-Beijing heavyweight Starry Lee has retained her seat in Tokwawan North, narrowly evading a challenge by pro-democracy disqualified legislator "Long Hair" Leung Kwok-hung. This area is one of the most staunchly “blue” areas and there are very few who can really fight against the DAB leader. Personally think it was a wise choice to sic Long Hair on him because Long Hair has the experience given his LegCo experience and grassroots work, yet also prevents the pro-dem faction from wasting one important current LegCo member
0205: PRO-DEM. Democrat Andrew Chiu - whose ear was bitten off by an assailant with a knife last month - has won in Taikoo Shing on Hong Kong Island.
0209: PRO-DEM. Democratic Party legislator Roy Kwong - popular in recent months for his assistance to protesters - has won in the North District Council. Pro-Beijing legislator Horace Cheung has lost his seat in the Central and Western District Council.
0214: PRO-DEM. Artist Clarisse Yeung has retained her seat in Tai Hang constituency. Having been one of only two non-pro-Beijing district councillors in Wan Chai from 2015-19, she is set to lead a pro-democracy majority district council.
0218: PRO-DEM. Chan Ka-yi - protege of legislator Au Nok-hin who has helped her to become his successor - has won in the Lei Tung (I) constituency in Hong Kong Island South.
0219: PRO-DEM. In Shek Yam constituency, North District, Democratic Party legislator Andrew Wan has retained his district council seat.

0224: PRO-DEM. At City One, Shatin - which attracted media earlier for its very high voter turnout - the pro-democracy Civic Party's Wong Man-huen has beaten her pro-Beijing opponent by over 2,000 votes.
0229: PRO-DEM. In Sai Kung's rural Outlying Islands, newcomer democrat Debby Chan has declared victory in a previously uncontested constituency.

0305: PRO-BEIJING. Despite many members of his legislative winning, reports suggest that pro-democracy legislator Eddie Chu has lost his district council seat in Pat Heung South, Yuen Long.
0307: After his district council win, pro-democracy legislator Andrew Wan told InMedia that it was the most solemn electoral victory of his life. He said he urgently wants to meet Carrie Lam, rescue those trapped in PolyU, and hold police accountable for brutality.
0316: PRO-DEM. Unofficial counts online suggest that the pro-democracy camp has won overwhelming victories in many districts including Tuen Mun, Wong Tai Sin and Tai Po - with some unverified rumours suggesting almost clean sweeps.

0341: PRO-DEM. Pro-Beijing legislator Michael Luk Chung-hung of the Federation of Trade Unions has lost his district council seat in Yuen Long.
0345: With just half of the 452 constituencies having announced their results, Stand News reports that the pro-democracy camp has so far obtained a landslide 197 seats compared to the pro-Beijing camp's 24. The pro-democracy camp only won just over 100 seats in 2015.
0359: PRO-DEM. Explicitly pro-protest candidate Lucifer Siu has won by a narrow margin in Mong Kok North, a constituency that has seen dozens of arrests over the past months due to protests at Mong Kok Police Station.
0400: Stand News reports as of 4am that the pro-democracy camp has won at least 240 confirmed District Council seats - over half of the 452 total elected seats - compared with the pro-Beijing camp's 28 confirmed seats.
0402: PRO-DEM. Stand News has reported that the pro-democracy camp has made a clean sweep, winning all 19 seats in the Tai Po District Council.

0430: PRO-BEIJING. Independent democratic social worker Hendrick Lui - arrested on Saturday for "obstructing police" clearing the Fanling Lennon Walls - has lost despite receiving some 2,600 votes. A fellow Neo-Democrat received 1,100 votes. However, a pro-Beijing candidate received over 3,000.
0434: Alvin Yeung, head of the mainstream pro-democracy Civic Party, says all party members who have been elected in the district elections will pay a visit to the Polytechnic University on Monday to assist the people trapped inside.
0542: Pro-democracy camp officially exceeds 300 seats at 301 vs 035.
0604: The man who vowed to run naked in Victory Park if Junius Ho loses is now doing so.
0617: After Tai Po, Wong Tai Sin becomes the 2nd district where pro-democracy candidates take all seats.
0642: 343 to 41 now. Pro-dem camp also already secured a majority in 16 out of all 18 districts so far. With only Kowloon City district and Outlying Islands district remaining. Outlying islands district has 8 ex-officio seats so it's firmly under pro-Beijing camp control. Kowloon City district is the only remaining one that's uncertain whether pro-democracy camp will win a majority.
0656: 349 to 44 currently. 1 more seat to hit 350.
0701: 351 to 44. Just pushed past 350.
0821: 365 to 51.
0837: 376 to 52 now. Can't hit 400 (not enough seats left) but it's definitely gonna push past 380.
0849: Just went over 380. 11 seats left to go. So we will likely close with pro-democracy camp getting 380-ish seats and pro-Beijing camp with 60-ish seats.
0907: 387 to 59, with one seat left.That seat is Lam Tin, a source of kerfuffle last night. Meanwhile the pro-dem has gotten the majority at Kowloon City.
At least 2 District Councils 100% pro-dem: Wong Tai Sin (25 seats) and Tai Po (19 seats). A prospect previously almost unimaginable. The other ensured pro-democracy majorities are Tsuen Wan, Wanchai, Central & Western, and Southern.7 pro-China LegCo members have lost seats, including Junius Ho, Holden Chow, Horace Cheung, Alice Mak, Michael Tien, Vincent Cheng. The only 2 big pro-democracy losses are Long Hair (kinda expected, a deliberate strategic move to set him up against Starry Lee) and Eddie Chu (kinda unexpected but also expected? esp given all the Yuen Long craziness and the staunchly pro-China attitudes of villagers). Civic Party won 32 of 36 seats it contested when it previously only had 12 DC seats.
0909: A referendum on the protests, the gov and the police. Results: HK ppl are pro-protester, pro-democracy, anti-gov and anti-police. Pro-democracy candidates have won 86.2% gaining control of 17 of the 18 District Councils and tripling their seats from around 124 to 387. 2019 District Council elections, Pro-dem: 388 Pro-Beijing: 059 2015 elections, Pro-dem: 125 Pro-Beijing: 299 In the past, HKers didn’t care about DC elections as fewer than 50% voted for what they considered as powerless positions. This time, 71% of registered voters (nearly 3 million) voted even if the results will have little immediate impact, showing a deep desire for real democracy.
Ballot counting procedures in Hong Kong’s Lam Tin constituency are in doubt after the pro-democracy candidate complained that problematic ballots had been accepted as valid, causing him to lose the race. Fung Tak-sum, an independent candidate, was running against Kan Ming-tung of the pro-Beijing Federation of Trade Unions (FTU) in Sunday’s District Council election race. Fung told reporters that he lost by a margin of 50 votes, but there were over 100 problematic ballots. Fung won 4,030 votes, whilst Kan received 4,080 votes. Fung said the problematic ballots considered valid included those with two to three ticks inside the box, ticks being stamped on the FTU’s logo, or ticks on Kan’s face as shown on the ballot.“There were never any guidelines saying that these ballots should be counted as valid,” Fung said. Fung said he asked for a review of the ballots after it was announced he had lost, but the Electoral Affairs Commission (EAC) – an independent body managing the election – said it was not possible. He will consider filing an election petition.
1300: Ballot counting finally ends at around 15 hours after the election officially ended – with candidates requesting multiple recounts. Dozens of residents also gathered outside the counting station in protest.
Pro-democracy faction gains control of 17 out of the city’s 18 district councils following Sunday’s landslide election. The democrats now have majority control in almost all areas except the Islands District Council, where they won seven seats, and the pro-Beijing camp obtained 11 seats. Eight of the seats in the Islands District belong to ex-officio members, which were not included in Sunday’s election. It marks a landslide when compared to the last election in 2015, when the opposition camp failed to win any district council. The election saw a record high 71.2 per cent turnout rate with around 2.94 million people casting their ballot. The democrats won slightly less than 60 per cent of the votes but – as the election was conducted under the first-past-the-post system – they won close to 400 out of the 452 seats. The pro-Beijing camp only won 58 seats. With the overwhelming majority that democrats obtained, they will also gain all 117 of the District Councillor seats in the chief executive election committee because of its winner-takes-all rule. It will further increase the power of democrats inside the committee. The opposition camp are also destined to gain the District Council (First) seat in the Legislative Council next year, when the election takes place.
The pro-democracy Democratic Party is the biggest winner of the election, winning 91 seats after fielding 99 candidates. The pro-Beijing Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, meanwhile, suffered a major defeat. The city’s largest pro-Beijing party fielded 181 candidates, but only won 21 seats. Party chair Starry Lee bowed in apology to voters who supported them on Monday. Lee said she had asked to resign from the party’s central committee, but the party did not accept her resignation. Lee highlighted cases of her party’s election materials being damaged and volunteers being afraid to canvass votes owing to harassment and doxxing by other people. Wait, you didn’t win and you can’t win, so you make pointed and woefully false remarks like this? The pro-Beijing Federation of Trade Unions, another major party, only obtained four seats after fielding 62 candidates. FTU President Stanley Ng said the result was not ideal, as he blamed the overall political environment.“The election was conducted under a very unfair situation – under a black terror and riotous environment,” he said, referring to violent protesters. Another dude making false accusations post-fact despite all sorts of evidence showing peaceful voting activity.
Scattered posts on Weibo following the news of pro-dem camp’s landslide victory: ”Only ppl who don’t live in HK will actually believe that the pro-establishment camp will win this time.” ”I heard that the silent majority in HK are patriotic, why is the election result like this?” “The public opinion is shown through their votes, not through certain tv stations.” “Since it’s one country two systems, we have to accept the public opinion of HK ppl and let their society decide their own path. If it works, perhaps we shld follow.” “The brain of those writing the script at state media must be splitting.” “This happens when ppl can vote, and this is why HK cannot implement universal suffrage.” “If pro-establishment wins, the silent majority spoke; if they lose, blame it on foreign interference.” “A short but telling ‘hoho’.” “Why is the gov not sending in the tanks instead and abolishing the one country two systems thing?” “I don’t understand the results...” Obviously the ones that question the CCP or support HK disappear asap. In the comments section of a post on Starry Lee vs Long Hai, a number of users struggle to understand why Long Hair is allowed to even run (duh it’s a democracy!) and how he managed to obtain >1500 votes. Others ask why Lee, even as the chairman of the biggest pro-gov pro-China party, wins only by a slim margin of 300 votes.
While pro-dem wins 86.2% of DC seats, they only did so with only 57% of overall vote (but also do note all the vote rigging and addition of pre-prepared votes, the existence of the older voters, and the fact that a big portion of youth still cannot vote), still a big margin but shows that the pro-Beijing with 41% are still an electoral force to reckon with. Pro-dems control the 117 DC votes for Chief Exec in 2022 selection but it does not really matter since pro-Beijing still have a hold over that rigged process. Pro-dems also fill the LegCo DC functional constituency seat, but numerically is also matters little to the pro-Beijing control of the functional constituencies e.g. business,
Pro-Beijing camp’s myth of the “silent majority” has been busted.
16yo boy convicted on 7 Nov of possession of offensive weapons sentenced today to a rehab centre. He had a laser pointer, an umbrella and a walking stick at a protest in Tuen Mun on 21 Sep. Denied bail, pending appeal. So far 3 citizens convicted (2 plead guilty) and 2 sentenced, 1 to community service, 1 to rehab centre. All young: 21, 12 and 16 (15 at time of commission of offense). Next sentencing on 19 Dec.
Statistics show that the pro-dem votes are much higher in districts that are the major sites of teargassing (e.g. see Wong Tai Sin). All of the constituencies which had teargas (98): 92.9% (91 wins, 7 losses) Of these, those who are major teargas sites (30): 96.7% (29 wins, 1 loss) Constituencies not hit by teargas (354): 83.9% (297 wins, 57 losses) There is an obvious correlation btwn severity of teargassing and the amount of pro-dem votes.
Keeping with the HK tradition of no one ever resigning :)))) - Leaders of pro-Beijing DAB party bow to the public after only winning 21 seats of the 181 candidates it sent.
1310: Central. A guy is pouring champagne for everybody on the streets. (note: Champagne Guy makes further appearances in future lunchtime protests. His sunglasses and facial hair make him quite recognisable.)
1341: Central. Pro-Beijing lawmaker Regina Ip is being besieged and hounded as she travels through the streets of Central. Crowds chant “traitor of Hong Kong”.
1349: Central. More ppl join in the spontaneous champagne party.
Chief Exec Carrie Lam previously called protesters the “enemy of the people” and said that they “will never win”. The statement did not age well. Now, Lam issues a statement thanking the public for voting in the DC elections, and does not dare to come out to meet the press or whom she calls the “silent majority” following the pro-dem victory.
1600: PolyU. Newly elected pro-dem District Councillors plan to march to PolyU to call for break of the police siege instead of going on vote-thaking tours. After this 45 min gathering, 5 delegates will go and attempt to speak to police and those trapped inside, while the rest wil go to the Gov House to demand gov to call off the police, allow first-aiders into PolyU, and fulfill the 5 demands of the people.
1642: PolyU. District Councillor Paul Zimmerman says HK gov has failed ppl again and again in last 5 months and the ppl have spoken loud and clear as they did again on 24 Nov.
1653: PolyU. Citizens trapped inside ask ppl outside not to clash with police at this time. They say that the ppl inside are safe and that they are communicating with reps of the newly-elected district councillors.
1657: Tsim Sha Tsui. A group of newly-elected pro-dem District Councillors gathered at Centenary Garden are starting march to PolyU.
1708: Tsim Sha Tsui. Hundreds of citizens march with the district councillors and are now at the police cordon around PolyU, shouting, “Open the way, let us pass!”
Pro-Beijing lawmaker Regina Ip says her party lost because they had been “politicised”. Rubbish, all elections are political, what are you even saying??? xD She ain’t making sense.
2017: Hung Hom. Citizens stand outside PolyU and flash phone lights up at campus buildings to let those inside know they have not been forgotten.
2100: Tsim Sha Tsui. Hundreds have returned to the streets to chant pro-dem slogans despite pro-dem camp just winning the local elections.
2257: By night, crowds began to heckle the riot police cordon in Tsim Sha Tsui East. Meanwhile, Yaumatei-Tsimshatsui district commander Ho Yun-sing says police will soon send negotiators into the PolyU campus to persuade those remaining to leave.
2305: Yuen Long's Tin Heng Estate district councillor-elect Henry Wong called on crowds to protest calmly so as not to give police excuses to storm PolyU. However, more heckling broke out after rumours that an officer is having a wedding at nearby Hotel Icon.
26 Nov 2019 0011: PolyU. Five district councillors-elect alongside legislator Ip Kin-yuen have stayed to speak with the few remaining PolyU protesters for some six hours.
