第三百七十三日 懷舊(摘錄)

小妮子剛考完期中試,上個星期六全家到離島走動一下,輕鬆一下,去的是老地方,沒有甚麼特別可記﹔途中經過天星碼頭,有許多人帶著相機,在幫鐘樓拍照留念,源於鐘樓尚有一個星期多就要拆卸,港島天星碼頭也搬遷,近來有特色及地標性的建築物相繼消失,我們沒有照相機在身,手機屬於古老型號,是那種甚麼特別功能也沒有的,否則也可能會加入,或者是時候考慮換手機,不過那些照片在熱潮過後,除了封塵在博物館及相簿外,又有幾多人會回顧懷念。
很多人忽然關注「集體回憶」,忽然關注文化保育,或者我們都在懷緬過往某些輝煌日子。

天星最後報時
是沒有發展遠景城市的警號
繼續爭取保留天星鐘樓.繼續爭取保留城市文化層次


〔即時發放〕當自由行訪港旅客不再單單滿足於購物消費、本港商品及服務價格競爭力亦難與鄰近地區比低,香港以往不斷拆建的地產主導以量取勝優劣不分的經濟發展模式,是否仍能奉為圭臬經已成疑;隱見城市文化層次的現有天星鐘樓,將於本周日凌晨凌時作最後報時,此將同時為香港多年來沒有城市遠景及文化政策的經濟發展定位敲響警鐘。

一批來自民間,不同年代成長、不同背景與工作,沒有系統組織的小市民,將基於關懷自己所處環境的文化,於本周六下午起,分別前往中環天星碼頭及愛丁堡廣場一帶,以各自的形式表逹繼續爭取保留碼頭及鐘樓的意向,而有關建築亦自當日開始,其管理權及業權均清晰交還政府,我們期望政府各部門有關官員,能夠發揮創意解決困難,共同為建設優秀及令市民自豪的城市而努力。

表示會以其形式將到場作表逹爭取保留天星鐘樓的單位及活動包括:
下午3:00 – 00:00 10多個音樂單位分別進行表演
“延續鐘樓綠絲帶簽名行動”
(邀請當日在場的市民簽名繼續支持保留鐘樓,並將簽名咭貼在不斷伸延的綠絲帶上,展示大家未熄及延續的心願)
下午 6:00 藝術行動
下午11:30 燃點燭光,發表公開信 

預計尚有其他單位屆時即興加入,亦歡迎各單位通知SEE網絡,以便統計。

傳媒如有查詢,可致電2127 4503,SEE網絡,李先生。

Last Bell of Star Ferry Pier
The warning of short sighted urban development
Continue to protest to save the Star Ferry Pier, continue to deepen the cultural layer of our Urban


When Free Walker is no longer satisfied in the shopping paradise, our products and services are no longer competitive with our neighboring cities in the market, will the Property Developers that are concerned with quantity and not quality will take over the urban progress duty? The significance of the deeper layer of our Urban culture - the Star Ferry Pier, will be ringing it¡¦s last bell at midnight this Sunday to alarm the warning of a short-sighted urban and economic and economy development that lacks any foresight of a cultural policy.


A crowd of people from different communities, ages and working backgrounds, a group of disorganized citizens will be coming to the Ferry Pier and Edinburg Square this Saturday at 6:00pm to protest their wishes to preserve the Star Ferry and Clock Tower. It is on the same day that the property ownership will be returned to the Hong Kong Government. We wish strongly that our personnel concerns in conjunction with different departments can be as creative to find solution and to build an extraordinary city with their citizens that we can all be proud of.
People will be arriving at the Star Ferry Pier to express their concerns, and the activities begin at:
15:00 onward More than 10 musical groups will be performing
Star Ferry Pier Continue green ribbon petition
(Will invite all of the citizens to sign petition which will be posted on a green ribbon to be used to express everyone’s wishes) .
18:00:onward Art Action
23:30 Candle Light vigil and announced our open letter
For party who would like to join action or improvisation, or query ,please contact 2127 4503, Mr. Li of SEE Network
