Let us pray for Hong Kong and the Philippines

I am a British Hong Kong Chinese. I am not a Filipino, although my wife is Filipino.

Filipinos I met over the years, whether they are in Hong Kong or in the Philippines are peaceful, loving and fun people There are of course always crazy people in any race or any part of the world. We Chinese also have crazy people, such as those in China who attack young children. Does that make all Chinese bad people? I do not think so. The gunman of Monday incident is just an isolated person.

I was one of those who said on Monday night that the PNP did a very bad job. They should have blown in both doors and throw in a couple of flash bangs, and would have prevented all those deaths. They should have grabbed the gunman when he was at the stairs of the bus talking to the negotiators in a relax manner.

Mistakes means we are only human. We cannot blame the entire government of the Philippines for what happened, although we can blame some people for the poor state of PNP, and a SWAT team which is not a SWAT team.

Let us just forgive, look for justice and improvements. Only with forgiveness to others and to ourselves can we move forward. Peace and Blessings of our Lord Jesus Christ to you all.
