  • HK reported a second person who died days after getting the BioNTech vaccine. A week after his vaccination, the 59-year-old man wasย found unconscious by hikers in Sai Kungย and later pronounced dead at the hospital. Nine people in total have reportedly experiencedย temporary facial paralysisย after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.

  • The Hong Kong government told 14 countries to not accept the BN(O) passport. The document has beenย used in the pastย to apply for working holiday visas.

  • A Hong Kong court has allowed prosecutors to indict suspects not physically present at an unlawful assembly under "joint enterprise". People can beย given the same chargesย (paywalled) as someone physically present at such a gathering.

  • The relocation of a sewage treatment plant to a cave is set to begin later this year. The Sha Tin facility move willย free up 28 hectares of landย for housing and other uses.

Earth Hour is an initiative that began in Australia in 2007 that has since become a worldwide event! It encourages each of us to do our part in cultivating more sustainable habits by turning off all non-essential lights for an hour. Hong Kongโ€™s Earth Hour is on Saturday (27 March) from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM.

Make the Earth Hour pledge
