Two arrested over suspected medical group closure

Two arrested over suspected medical group closure Tsang Kin-wah says Customs are looking into the company's operations and financial position immediately before its closure.

The pair, a 61-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman, were the company's director and secretary respectively. Both have been released on bail pending an investigation. Customs said they have so far received 1,686 complaints involving HK$7.2 million worth of prepaid packages. Divisional commander Tsang Kin-wah said authorities are looking into the company's operations and financial position immediately before its suspected closure on May 1. "Just days before its suspected closure, this trader was still selling medical services and accepting prepaid payments from consumers," he said. "That allegedly violated the Trade Descriptions Ordinance by wrongfully accepting payments," he said. "At the time of accepting these payments, the trader had no reasonable grounds to believe they could provide the relevant services within the specified or reasonable time frame." Tsang urged affected customers to come forward, adding that Customs have already been in touch with more than 1,400 complainants. The government has also set up an inter-departmental task force to follow up on the complaints.

Hong Kong artist Tsang Kin-wah's comeback exhibition creates an apocalyptic landscape

Tsang Kin-wah's first Hong Kong exhibition in years was one of the most talked-about openings during Art Basel week, even though nobody could quite pronounce the title. Advertisement 'T REE O GO D EVIL', with the deliberate gaps, is still on view at Central's Galerie du Monde, one of Hong Kong's oldest established commercial galleries. The immersive exhibition that completely takes over the gallery space's surfaces also rings with political urgency. It is a particularly memorable comeback for a person once widely regarded as Hong Kong's most prominent contemporary artist. In 2014, when he was chosen to represent Hong Kong at the 56th Venice Biennale, Tsang was best known for his wallpapers that concealed Cantonese swear words in elegant floral patterns. Such playful symbols of hybridity morphed into something more sombre in Venice, where his exhibition 'The Infinite Nothing' included powerful videos and projections about how human history is trapped in endless, recurring cycles. Tsang Kin-wah says that he took the pandemic as an opportunity to pause and reflect.
