unsubject (ʌnˈsʌbdʒɪkt): as a verb, it means to remove from subjugation; as an adjective, it means not subject to, not subjected.

I am a Hong Konger, a classical liberal, a generalist, and a geek. In 2004, I co-founded a free-market think tank, the Lion Rock Institute, and I started to pen an opinion column for Apple Daily.

Apple Daily was forced to shut down in 2021. I continued writing for my fellows Hong Kongers.

“Why don’t you consider writing in English?” a friend asked.

Unsubject covers (1) random topics I find interesting; (2) the Sinosphere and the world; (3) economics, public policy, and technology.
