Student leader for the pro-democracy demonstration that happened in Hong Kong in September 2014 ha been denied entry into Malaysia, where he was supposed to be speaking at an event.

The Scholarism Facebook page, managed by the student group that led the protests, better known as the Yellow Umbrella movement, indicated that Wong had arrived at Malaysian immigration, and had his passport checked by the local customs officers.

However, he was detained and asked to assist with investigations, and was subsequently denied entry and had to return to Hong Kong. The Malaysian authorities supposedly did not give any reason for the denial of entry.

Wong was supposed to be speaking at an event in Malaysia to commemorate the Tienanmen Square massacre.

老组屋屋价下滑 卖房收益恐不足归还公积金

一名民众在社交媒体分享观点,质疑自己在卖掉组屋后,为何归还到公积金户口的钱,还要加上过去累计至今的利率,即使加上卖房子收得收入,还要倒贴。 ”最近,我收到公积金局的请求,要求我把售卖组屋所得,加上利率全数归还到我的公积金户口。“ 我感到惊讶,询问该局职员,我已年届66岁,为何还要把钱还给公积金,他告诉我新的条规不限年龄。 加上累计利率后,结果我要归还给公积金的总额,竟然还多过我卖房子所得。 他们不止要回我从公积金拿出的50巴仙积蓄,还要加上过去二十年来的累计利率。为什么我自己的储蓄也要缴利息?在55岁时我已可领取公积金,为何还要我把钱归还回去? 这已让我陷入财务问题,更何况我还要用我的出去来偿还中介费、律师费、租金、搬运费等等各种琐碎费用。 似乎只有那些年龄超过55岁、卖掉房子的人,才被公积金局告知这项不合理的新规则。” 他希望能有更多人知道并留意这些“细节里的魔鬼”,特别是会影响到年长者卖房后的收益,导致没有足够的钱应付额外的开销。 买房公积金加上利率需归还 金融服务专业协会前主席梁实轩就回应上述民众,指出在现有公积金制度下,当你卖掉房子,你曾用掉的公积金数额加上累计利率,都要归还到你的公积金户口。 在55岁,全额退休储蓄(FRS)的最低储蓄定在17万1000元。超过此数额的其余公积金储蓄才可提取出来。 举例来说,如果你在65岁卖掉房子,你必须把全额退休储蓄加上过去十年累计的利率,全留在你的公积金户口。…
