農暦十二月二十日。太古の映画館で大陸でかなり評判の喜劇映画『人再囧途之泰囧』見る。徐峥が初めて脚本、監督、主演のこの映画、
アタシには一つも面白くない。ドタバタ劇といひ脚本、台詞の何一つ可笑しいと思へず。強いていへば共演のボケ役の王宝强、シニカルにコメディができる黄渤も往年のマイケル＝ホイのやうで拝金主義中国へのアンチテーゼ的な面もあるにはあるが……たゞこれが喜劇？と納得いかず。
▼中国の政協は董建華が副主席留任の由。同じ香港の行政長官上がりでも貧官曽は政協入りならず。本人は恥知らずでIACAが収賄容疑での調査済み身の潔白証明されゝば国家的役割に貢献すべく今回は自らオファーを辞退と宣ふ。それにしても香港政府の官僚でも殊に公安部門トップの全人代、政協入り目立つこと。香港の自治などすでに放出か。それにしてもパッテン総督の1996年の施政方針演説のこの名句が思ひ出される。
My anxiety is this: not that this community's autonomy would be usurped by Peking, but that it could be given away bit by bit by some people in Hong Kong. We all know that over the last couple of years we have seen decisions, taken in good faith by the Government of Hong Kong, appealed surreptitiously to Peking - decisions taken in the interests of the whole community lobbied against behind closed doors by those whose personal interests may have been adversely affected. That is damaging to Hong Kong because it draws Chinese officials into matters which should fall squarely within the autonomy of Hong Kong. If we in Hong Kong want our autonomy, then it needs to be defended and asserted by everyone here - by businessmen, politicians, journalists, academics and other community leaders, as well as by public servants.
