This week 2 people backed down in the face of the Establishment. First, that 21yo student blogger, now stuck with a legal bill of $10,775 and who has put out the begging bowl asking people to defray her costs; and, second, this Ngiam fellow who does not simply issue a clarification of his...

He is totally discredited.

Her costs are $10,755. Perhaps she can itemize the bill into what amount constituted court filings and what amount constituted her lawyer's fees.

He wanted to sue the law society for millions but then backed out. He then asked the law society to bear its own legal costs. In the end did he have to pay their costs for an action he initiated and then backed out of? A pertinent question.

Her "victory" costs her $10,755. At best it was a pyrrhic victory. The reality is that it was no victory at all because if it was a "victory" she would be able to claim legal costs from the other party. That would be the lowest benchmark to determine "victory" in any litigation, i.e., making...

Very good news. Boss Sam will be pleased.

This is the arrogance of taxi drivers, to switch lanes at high speed near a junction. :o

Uncle Yap is a cab driver? :confused:

Clearly, some parties have to make corrections. :o

If she had scored a victory then at the very least she would have had her legal costs paid for by the other side. Instead, she got nothing, and to top it off she deactivated her blog and FB account. :o

Main interest is on the 2013 URA Master Plan, expected to be released soon.

The police should ask this thug to turn himself in to be interviewed, otherwise the police should hunt him down and bring him to justice. Thuggish behaviour of the kind he displayed cannot go unanswered.

That would surprise me given that one of the parties in the Everitt Rd spat of years ago was fined $2k for shouting something far milder to her neighbour:

Hope that he faces the full weight of the law.

Someone removed the clip so quickly. Never had a chance to view.

This 3rd rally backfired. People interpreted the large crowd of 5000 at the 1st protest in Feb as heightened opposition to the government, which is fair enough. In consequence, it is right if people interpret a crowd size of 500 for the 3rd protest as the opposition softening. You can't...

Maybe a dutch auction, where with each succeeding one the numbers keep falling. He can invite KJ as a speaker the next time round, so as to finally kill it off. :eek:

I am quite certain he tried to rope in better speakers but did not succeed. But to be left with getting a child to speak is something which I find difficult to understand.

There are many such sandwich joints in HK that are thriving. And they are patronised not just by expats.

That's fine. You did well by going. That's enough!
