耶誕樹的前奏

Translation: @benkongenglish
.
放鬆的週日夜晚
輕步踏著單車 劃開散步的人群
一個右轉
耀眼的百貨公司披著高貴璀璨的銀白燈光
步道兩側的路樹裹著晶瑩剔透的水藍星光
啊！是耶誕節在即呢～
幸福感才上心頭
隨即被悲觀如洪水般輕易淹沒
.
「今天賣得多嗎？」
在僅50米遠的上一個路口
兜售手工餅乾的妹妹回答我：
「今天很少，因為天氣冷」
身心障礙識別證別在看起來想努力維持體溫的薄外套上
外頭套著一件不合身的輕便雨衣
「那我再多拿兩包吧～」
她連忙熱情地向我介紹她自己喜歡的口味
我又挑了兩包 遞幾張鈔票給她
盡責的她收好鈔票 掏出廣告單
笨拙卻真誠地想介紹蛋糕
我婉拒「我再上網查就好 不用給我 謝謝妳」
我沒有對她說加油
因為每個人有自己的功課
但她主動說「謝謝，我會加油的」
轉身走向另一位對餅乾有興趣的先生
我看著她積極的背影 直到綠燈亮起
.
她說「謝謝，我會加油的」
一定很多人對她說過加油
一定她很積極且願意承擔她的課題
在一個無聊的街角 奮力演出自己的角色
為她自己的勇氣感動
為她身邊的人給予的愛和支持感動
.
我們是自己的主角
只能是別人的過客
人人展開天使的翅膀
就能在社會的各處點亮溫暖的光
讓耀眼的百貨公司也遜色一籌
.
停好車 走回家
沿途公園是公園
老房舍是老房舍
纏上光與熱的電線燈泡 從不是它們的事
.
PS.雖然高聳的耶誕樹是商業考量
還是謝謝他們幫忙記住節慶的熱鬧

I was on a bike among a crowd walking leisurely on a relaxing Sunday night.
I turned right and see the elegantly lit department store and the crystal like blue lights wrapped around trees on both sides of the road.
The scene reminded me of the upcoming festive season - Christmas!
Ironically the festive mood has come and immediately gone.
.
“Was the business good?”
“Not at all. Thanks to the cold weather.” The little girl selling hand made biscuits replied me.
The proof of mentally or physically impaired was stuck on the thin jacket that seemed to be trying to keep her warm, with a raincoat on top of it.
“I’ll have two more packs then”
She passionately recommended the flavours she liked
I picked two more and handed her a few bills.
She kept the money well and took out some leaflets.
Clumsily but sincerely wanted to promote their cakes.
“I can look it up on the internet. Thanks” I declined.
I didn’t say “good work” to her because everyone has their own positions and duties.
But she thanked me and said she would keep fighting then turned towards another interested customer.
I watched her doing her best until the light turned green.
.
There must be a lot of people who told her “keep fighting” for her to say that to me as a reply.
She must have been proactive in fulfilling her role and taking on the challenges
She played her act on a subtle corner of the street, gave it her best.
I was moved by herself and the love and support from the people around her.
.
We are the protagonists of our lives but just a passerby in the others’.
If we all spread our angel wings, we can light this society with lights that warm our hearts, even making the shiny department store dimmed.
.
Parked my bike, started to walk home
The park on the way is just a park and the old buildings just old buildings.
They never really got involved in the bright and warm lights wrapped around them
.
PS. Although the giant Christmas trees are just part of the business calculation, please still thank them for warming this festive season

She set out with intention;
Thought she knew the way to go
But as she wandered clumsily
The winds of change did blow.
They took her like a feather
And she floated on their breeze
Soaring so far above the forest
She could barely see the trees.
At first, she was astounded
Just how far she went each day
But eventually she realised
She’d completely lost her way.

【解密譚惠珠「脫勾」之路】

現已晉身全國人大之列既譚惠珠，港英時代深得英方信賴，只係30年前一單的士醜聞及干預新聞自由無得再做「英方之珠」，從此成為政治生涯分水嶺，脫勾英國去做「中方之珠」。但究竟當年譚惠珠有幾多鮮為人知既勾結行為同活動呢?

90年代初，譚惠珠在被揭發「的士醜聞」嘅前夕，一份名為 “Maria Tam”的英國解密檔案揭示(註一)，她曾計劃特意飛去英國向保守黨政要拜師學搞政黨政治。當時佢喺香港組緊叫「自由民主黨」(liberal democratic party)的新政黨(其後為香港自由民主聯會)，採用中立保守路線，英方認為咁樣可以制衡由李柱銘帶頭嘅激進批評(radical critics)，對港英政府來說發揮減少負面新聞既政治利用價值，深得當時英國外交部欣賞同鼓勵。

當時英國外交部收到譚惠珠嘅主動獻身，叫左保守黨準備咗一日行程，帶佢參觀保守黨喺大倫敦(Greater London) 兩個選區(Kensington and Wandsworth) 嘅政黨組織工作，仲去保守黨中央辦公室同黨友會面交流，最後英方仲話會示範點用當前相當先進既「電腦軟件」攪競選工程。同時間，其實除咗英國保守黨外，當時加拿大有自由黨作為姊妹黨都提供咗好多指導意見俾譚惠珠。

檔案中，見到英國外交部引述譚惠珠好開心保守黨專程為佢計劃整個行程，當時不單止同外國政要交流會面，仲喺人地身上學習點樣攪民主選舉。

如果以中方對國安法既標準，譚惠珠唔只係見下政要咁簡單，直情自甘做洋人扶植既政治棋子，仲私底下走去向英國拜師在港攪政黨政治，已經可以算係勾結境外勢力既具體行為同活動。如果國安法有追溯期，又應唔應該以危害國家安全第一個將佢繩之於法呢?

本來譚惠珠聯合外國勢力一路順風，但的士醜聞事件之後，英國外相韓達德(Douglas Hurd) 叫港英政府評估一下件事對譚嘅政治前途影響，而港英政府就認為譚嘅應對笨拙(Clumsily)，一連串嘅風波已令佢政治事業受毀，估計譚唔太可能參與來年嘅立法會選舉，加上種種原因，最後迫使譚轉投親中。但唯獨私下勾結英國的罪證，則永遠地紀錄在檔案中。
