The spread of Covid in Hongkong that annoyed Beijing is learnt to have been caused by a birthday party of
a longtime former government official held by Witman Hung, principal liaison officer for Hong Kong at the
Shenzhen Qianhai Authority, which oversees economic development between Hong Kong and the Greater
Bay Area. Though Witman Hung is reportedly a relatively low-level official representing private interests in
the development zone in Shenzhen his birthday party included some senior guests, including Hong Kong
police chief Raymond Siu, Secretary of Home Affairs Casper Tsui, and others. Witman Hung is, however, a
HK Deputy to the NPC. Among others who attended were members of the Shenzhen CPPCC, Vice President
of Guangdong’s Association For Promotion of Cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao,
Commissioner of Hong Kong Road Safety Patrol, Chairman Emeritus of the Y.Elites Association, Vice
President and Secretary General of Hong Kong-ASEAN Economic Cooperation Foundation and Council
Member of Hong Kong Professionals and Senior Executives Association.
