- Yuen Long lamppost 'FA8964' has disappeared | Radio Free Asia (RFA)
- Date posted
- 1 year ago
- Description
- A lamppost in the Yuen Long district of Hong Kong, originally marked "FA8964"—a reference to the June 4 Tiananmen Square incident—has sparked public attention after its number was changed to "GD8332." Nearby lampposts were also renumbered. Previously, "FA8964" was noted for "surviving" after a repair in June last year. Recently repainted and altered, the lamppost’s change prompted criticism, with locals suggesting that authorities fear even a symbolic number. The Highways Department stated that the renumbering was "for management convenience," but the move has intensified public memory of "8964" and its significance.

- A Chinese travel agency organized an Arctic cruise where some tourists, including at least eight PLA veterans, displayed nationalistic gestures and military symbols at China’s Yellow River Research Station in Svalbard, raising security concerns in Norway. RFA and NRK found that one veteran still holds a non-active role with the Chinese armed forces, and PLA-linked tourists participated in coordinated displays of nationalism both on the cruise ship and on Svalbard, reflecting China’s tactic of using civilian activities to blur the line with military influence in sensitive regions.
