“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.
