“Cease Talking to the Press” University of Hong Kong Officials Tell UFO Group
HKU UFO Course Controversy Continues
Toronto Ontario Canada December 31, 2008 –
University of Hong Kong (HKU) officials have
told UFO advocates to “cease talking to the
press…” about an HKU decision to arbitrarily
cancel a UFO course. The controversy at the
University of Hong Kong around its decision
to drop a planned course on UFOs has now
reached international proportions of
coverage. [Asia
One News
and
ABS-CBN News]
In a significant turn of events, a special
meeting was arranged between Neil Gould of
Exopolitics Hong Kong, a representative
from
the HK Institute of Ufology
and the two heads of the General Education
Department at the University of Hong Kong to
discuss re-instating the UFO course
originally committed to by the university.
In an update to the world-wide Exopolitical
research community about the meeting, Neil
Gould of Exopolitics Hong Kong stated, “The
meeting was very pleasant from their side
but they asked if… the UFO Club, and I would
cease talking to the press. I told them it
was impossible…”
It appears significant public pressure is
being exerted on the University of Hong Kong
by the intense international coverage of
this matter.
Neil Gould’s update further indicates that
HKU officials appear to be buying time in an
effort to delay any decision about
re-instating the UFO course in the hope this
will all be defused and just “blow over” in
time.
Gould is having no part of this, as further
indicated by his response to HKU officials
during the pre-arranged meeting: “You
have done nothing since the last lectures
except use time to delay things... I have
another appointment with a French newspaper
and Hong Kong’s largest magazine where we
will fill 4 pages with issues regarding the
cancellation of the lectures and your
interference with the students’ freedom.”
Exopolitics Toronto will continue in its
attempts to keep Canadian and international
news media updated on Exopolitics Hong
Kong’s efforts to achieve the same academic
freedom in China that we take so very much
for granted here.

international event.]
