A staff member of the institution told the media this restroom with cameras are unisex and open to all students, parents and teachers, men and women.

Firstly, according to the staff of the educational institution, the camera helps to monitor people who might be smoking there, which is forbidden. Before using the camera, the staff found a cigarette butt there but no one smoked in the restrooms after the camera installed.

Secondly, it can be used to prevent students from being bullied and to protect their safety.

In response to those who believe that the camera violates privacy, the staff said that the camera is fixed and that when the door is closed, it cannot take pictures of people behind the partition door.

After installing the camera, the organization posted a compelling notice to inform the students.

Therefore, a large number of Hang Seng Bank account holders will receive a Hang Seng Bank survey or check letter, and may also notify the company of the request to replace the annual audit information by email.

Under this circumstance, enterprises need to check the e-mail regularly. Once they receive such mail, please prepare the information in advance and actively cooperate with the bank’s strict review to avoid bank accounts being shut down.

The bank has disclosed that at the end of December this year, it is expected that more than 10,000 accounts will be closed. Because no one can predict whether their account will be closed, HACOS warmly reminds you that please carefully maintain your bank accounts and prepare emergency plans in advance.

In addition, in order to avoid the impact of the temporary closure of the account and affect the development of your company, it is recommended that companies can consider opening another bank accounts to ensure the finance transactions of the international trade.

• Please log in to online banking frequently (at least 1-2 times a month)

• There are multiple transactions within three months (at least 3-5 times)

• Always keep accounts with 50,000 HKD or more deposits

• Don’t make the fund in and out quickly (for example: 100,000 yuan in the account and transfer on the same day or the next day).

• Do not help others to collect or settle foreign exchange

• Be careful not to receive payment from sensitive countries

When the bank monitors the account, it will focus on 

• Whether the account has large funds in and out, 

• Whether the fund in the accounts is in and out quickly, 

• Whether there is any money exchange with the countries with high rates of money laundering. 

In the latest instance, Tencent Holdings has decided to take down its “drift bottle” feature, a long-running function on its ubiquitous social networking platform WeChat that enables users to leave text or voice messages for random strangers to pick up.

“Through user complaints and media reports, we find there are still some cases which take advantage of the feature to disseminate pornography and solicit prostitutes,” Tencent said in a statement posted on its official account on Friday, adding that the WeChat team has moved to halt the function.

“We have been working hard to create a healthy and safe online environment and remind our users to keep up their vigilance and report any pornographic materials, erotic texts or harassment,” it added.

The decision comes after Baidu was fined 600,000 yuan (US$86,400) for publishing advertisements that contain pornography, gambling, superstition and violence, according to a report by the online edition of the People’s Daily over the weekend.

The Haidian district of the industrial and commercial administration of Beijing also demanded that Baidu hand over 26,000 yuan in revenue from three “superstitious” ads the search engine ran on its platform. The ads contained phrases such as “decoding one’s full-year destiny through the Chinese zodiac” and “mojos that can bring happiness, luck and fortune”.

Baidu did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment on Monday while a Tencent spokesman said the company had no additional comment beyond the statement.

The Chinese authorities have been on a drive to clean up the country’s online environment over the past few years, urging more prudence over ads and real-time monitoring of content. The industry-wide clampdown led to the shutdown of 9,800 social media accounts on platforms including WeChat, microblogging site Weibo, Baidu, news aggregator Jinri Toutiao and others in the three weeks since late October.

The Cyberspace Administration of China said last month that tightened management of internet content producers would be a “new norm” for the internet watchdog. The authority has summoned the operators of 10 content platforms to conduct clean-ups of their own services to remove vulgar content, rumours and fake accounts.

Last month, ByteDance, which runs Jinri Toutiao, was ordered to pay a fine of 3.7 million yuan for publishing illegal medical ads. This came after an earlier 700,000 yuan fine imposed in March when it was criticised by the People’s Daily and China Central Television for running ads seen as misleading and harmful to the public.
