A husband and wife report on each other, a father and son sever ties with each other, the absurd incidents that were typical during the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) in China are now playing out in a prominent Hong Kong family.
In a statement published in Hong Kong’s Oriental Daily on Aug. 5, pro-Beijing politician Eunice Yung stated, “I, Eunice Yung, a Chinese person with the blood of our great motherland running in my veins and placing the overall national interests before everything else, hereby declare that I am cutting off ties with Elmer Yuen as my father-in-law, on the grounds that he is being investigated under the national security law for suspected incitement to subvert state power.”
