Talk:Emily Lau

08/07/2006 POV section dispute
I moved WangFeiHung's hideously worded and incredibly convoluted paragraph to criticisms and controversies.

WFH's original paragraph:

''Many noticed that she did not renouced the British occupation of Hong Kong nor demand human rights or democracy under British colonialization. Hong Kong under British administration did not elect the governor, the legislators (until the final year), nor did locals had access to high paying top government jobs and had to pay taxes to London. Lau enjoyed a cozy relationship with last London appointed and unelected British governor of Hong Kong.''

Not only is it unjustified but it has no sources either. This is a paragraph WangFeiHung added to a number of pro-democracy politicians in Hong Kong.

This editor will assume such edits to pro-democracy politicians by WangFeiHung to be an act of vandalism and will revert accordingly. However, attempts to justify this will be most welcome - thus I have left "citation needed" tags where appropriate.--mintchocicecream 00:54, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * This "pro-democracy" is made up by your and your racist friends. Lau is not a pro-democracy politican.
 * Stop vandalize this page.
 * Master Hung Fei Hung

Marriage / Personal life
The paragraph on 'Marriage' was weak and unclear, so i removed it. Anyone is welcome to revise and improve it, especially under the better heading 'Personal life'. The text was:
 * Lau has been married twice. In 1982, she married a Sunday Times journalist but divorced soon after. In 1989, she went to Great Britain to discuss the Hong Kong Basic Law with members of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. She met Winston Poon, a solicitor in Hong Kong. They remained married until their divorce in 2006. Earthlyreason (talk) 04:41, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
