香港富二代好少公開談時事、講政治，大劉兒子、華置董事劉鳴煒被稱為「公職新人王」，好少公開議政論政，佢
日前接受智庫組織Roundtable訪問，卻大談對80後睇法、地產霸權、官商勾結問題，呢啲富豪第二代係地產霸權upand-coming接班人，佢哋講得啱唔啱都值得留意。
唔捐錢畀香港政黨
劉鳴煒坦言唔明白成日上街嗰班80後嘅諗法，好有興趣問吓佢哋點解咁做，點解咁多怨氣，佢似乎對80後唔係一面
倒批評，認為如果有能力在網上發動群眾運動，喺組織力方面都可以算係傑出表現。香港好多人花半世人供樓，變
相為地產商打工，地產霸權有切膚之痛，劉鳴煒話身為中型發展商，華置對復建居屋、打擊樓市睇法比較liberal。
至於官商勾結，劉鳴煒認為只係市民「形」住嘅錯覺，佢覺得官員根本冇誘因去勾結商人，因為怕俾廉署查，又驚
俾人鬧，既然冇着數：「點解特登要幫（商界）？」不過佢承認高樓價、高租金係不能否認事實，不過冇可能長期
維持。
劉鳴煒對時事嘅關注程度令八方意外，講到特區政府似乎冇乜決心推動香港經濟轉型，唔再倚賴金融地產兩瓣時
，佢竟然提到梁振英提出香港可以做航運中心嘅建議，衷心覺得CY呢個建議「行得通」。近年擔任多項公職，劉鳴
煒話工作量已經「飽和」，相信未來一兩年唔可能再接受更多新公職，亦冇打算做更顯著職位，因為喺現時社會氣
氛，佢唔會全職從政。
商人對政治多數敬而遠之，劉鳴煒稱冇興趣捐款畀本地任何政黨，民建聯都唔捐，因為個個黨都「好唔成熟」、「
揀唔落」，假如佢係英國商人，則會選擇捐款保守黨，因為係least worst。點解worst都要捐呢？答案唔難找，根
據資料，05年曾蔭權參選，華置有捐助選舉經費，大劉早前更豪捐2億元畀關愛基金

Hour100@FCC’s Fasting Diary -- 50% belly lost, still alive
“PRESENT…"
It's my 100th hour (4 days+) of fasting since Apr 6. 00:00. I am quite surprised that I am still alive. =P
It's my 100th hour (4 days+) of fasting since Apr 6. 00:00. I am quite surprised that I am still alive. =P
- Almost 50% of my belly is gone. (by visual-estimation, I have never tried to measure my "Spare Tyre")
- Still alive, it is so amazing that I have stored 4 days of food in my body. Wondering what did I eat ......
- I have fought food urges for days. Now, I acquires a superpower -- "tasting" the food when i see pic in cookery book or smell anything. I may qualify to join the Justice League after 21 days of fasting = P
- So far, I haven't felt any ache or dizzy, on the contrary, my concentration and productivity is up...
- A lunch meeting in New Shanghai in HKCEC. That's a very good Shanghai restaurant. I insisted (just drink tea and a Tofu soup[without eating the Tofu]0 =)

Day 2@FCC's Fasting Diary -- hungry but not that hungry
"PRESENT..."
Just met my fd, Celeste in SG during my business trip. As a popular full-time blogger (The Personal Excellence http://celestinechua.com/blog/), no doubt she is so~ inspiring. Ironically, I’ve met so many scholars in my business, but sometimes I think ppl is more inspiring without PhD…
She is much slimmer after I saw her three months ago. She told me that she has fasted for 21 days (see http://celestinechua.com/blog/fasting-day-0/). And, I asked a very stupid question, then “How?” That’s a quite silly question to ask, even to a primary student.
I have looked into Celeste’s blog and found something interesting:
Once again, if you’re interested fasting of any sort, do spend some time to read up and proceed at your own risk. I’m not a fasting or a medical expert. Everything that I’m sharing is the best knowledge I have based on my own extensive reading on the topic and my own experience with the fasting process. When in doubt or in doubt, please consult a licensed practitioner/doctor/professional.

In case, you dun know. FYI:
If [Energy-in-take] < [Energy-used], then fat (energy-storage) will be burnt. Actually, glucose will be burnt first, then fat, and then protein will be burnt later. The line between Fasting & Starvation is the subject burnt. It’s ok to burnt fat and glucose, and it’ll be KO when protein is burnt.
She answered “I have built a new relationship with food now”. Wah~ what a poetic reply.If [Energy-in-take] < [Energy-used], then fat (energy-storage) will be burnt. Actually, glucose will be burnt first, then fat, and then protein will be burnt later. The line between Fasting & Starvation is the subject burnt.

*I have built a new relationship with society, so I am unemployed
*I have built a new relationship with myself, so I drug
*I have built a new relationship with love, so I broke up with you
Indeed, I have a very bad “relationship with food”. I ate when I was not hungry. I bought snacks when I saw 7-eleven. I’ve been spending fifties a day for junk food/drinks, that’s almost a thousand per month. Um…actually I did not eat much but food price rises. Moreover, Lindt only prices 50% higher than Camberley, but the former one is 100% more tasty. It is unwise to spend on junk-junk-food. To sum-up,*I have built a new relationship with myself, so I drug
*I have built a new relationship with love, so I broke up with you
"Dear [Land]Lord, I have sinned.....
Gluttony, the best phase I can find in my dictionary.
Now, it’s time for me to "build a new relationship with food", for weight, for money, for enjoyment.Gluttony, the best phase I can find in my dictionary.
I have looked into Celeste’s blog and found something interesting:
“After moving into raw foods, it made me see food in a whole new light and made me realize how much I was using food as an emotional outlet (even more so than I realized). It also made me understand on a whole new level what it really feels to be hungry and require food, vs. when it’s just a desire to eat and fill out an emotion. The answer is that probably 99.9% of the time it’s the latter and not the former. The fact that pretty much all processed foods and cooked foods include sugar, salt and additives in one way or another and they affect our sense of true hunger, which aggravates emotional eating problems.
I read with interest of Frederick (a raw vegan expert)’s 23-day fasting account, where he lost the physical sensation of hunger after the first 3 days. For the remaining 20 days, he literally stopped feeling hungry for food. I thought that must be a really interesting state to be in – it basically rips apart everything we hear about food and eating today, where we need to have 3 meals a day, that skipping a meal is bad for health, and so on and so forth.
Fasting, not eating food, will probably make me see food in a different light than how I’m seeing it now. The people who’ve undergone fasting talked about how they felt hunger in the first 1-3 days and stopped feeling any physical hunger after that. It also made them realize what true hunger really felt like. Real hunger isn’t the feeling that most of us think it is – signs like emptiness of stomach, stomach growls, thinking that you need to eat, gastric pain (by the way, abdominal pain stems from deeper issues, so if you get it you should get it checked), etc are just what we think is hunger. Real hunger is felt from the throat (not stomach nor head). The average body has fat reserves (complete with the nutrients, vitamins and minerals) that can last one at least 40 days without food. (unless you’re very thin, pregnant, emaciated, etc)
Someone who has a true ideal relationship with food and his/her body will eat only when truly hungry, stop when body is full, not experience any sudden cravings or desire to eat, and will be in a healthy body weight and fat percentage, because the body has no use for any excess fat whatsoever (unless you live in an extremely cold climate like Antarctica).”
MY PLAN
- 22 days juice-fasting from Apr 6, 00:00 . 20 is normal duration, 21 is Celeste’s experience, 22...um…my date of birth =)
- I regard it is a personal success if I fast for ten.....=P
- Due to my business nature, I can’t water fast as Celeste (drink water only), so I plan to coffee-fast, tea-fast, water-fast…
- The problem is , I will have my Guangzhou trip with parent this week, and gatherings in this twenty days…
- I will try to tell my parent that it’s dangerous to break fasting by normal meal. In fact, there is a procedure to break fasting (see reference below [in my blog only]). “will die ga, will die ga”—Best rebuttal I have
