Savills appointed sole agent for the tender sale of 12 & 14 Kent Road, Kowloon Tong
21 December 2015
Owned by the religious group, the two sites are at the most remarkable location in Kowloon Tong. The three-storey property at 12 Kent Road spans a site area and saleable area of 10,775 sq ft and 7,182 sq ft respectively. The two-storey property at 14 Kent Road has a site area and saleable area of 10,771 sq ft and 4,303 sq ft respectively. The total site area and saleable area are 21,546 sq ft and 11,485 sq ft respectively. The property possesses huge gardens and carports.
Sam Mock, Senior Director of Investment, Savills said, “the sites are located at an impeccable and luxury area in Kowloon Tong. It is worth mentioning that they are the only two adjoining residential sites currently on sale in the market. The owner holds the sites for over 25 years and it is a very unique moment they are out in the market for sale now. In addition, the townhouse sites are usually well sought-after, such as No.22 Barker Road, The Peak (transacted at HK$1.5 billion / unit price per saleable sq ft HK$151,668), No.1 Purves Road (Transacted at HK$760 million / A.V. per sq ft HK$96,729 sq ft) and No.35 South Bay Road (Transacted at HK$808 million / unit price per saleable sq ft HK$110,776). Comparatively speaking, the A.V. for 12 & 14 Kent Road is at a range of HK$37,000 to HK$40,000 per sq ft which is very attractive.”

Activism idea. Get former JWs celebrities to raise awareness
by Viva la Vida init just occurred to me that former jws celebrities could help in a campaign to raise awareness on some of the most controversial jw's practices (two witness rule in relation to child abuse, shunning, blood).
we would need some of them to record brief videos and share them through social media.
this can be more effective than what any of us could individually do.

Some of them have briefly talked about their JW past, but there has never been a concentrated effort to engage them in a campaign. I don't care much about them being "role models" (which is also something rather subjective), but that they have big audience available to share a message.

There is a big list of former JW's celebrities in JWFacts: http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/famous-jehovahs-witnesses.php
Do you think this is achievable?

542 On 16 August 2015, Dr Applewhite wrote to the legal representative of Watchtower
Australia and advised that she was unable to prepare a supplementary statement due
to other commitments. She conveyed in her letter her belief that ‘between the research
that has already been undertaken by the Commission and the evidence provided by
others who testified after [her], the questions [Watchtower Australia has] presented to
[her] have been or shortly will be answered’.921

@shadow: I agree the signature might no be the most important part of the document, but it is the only thing that was really provided by Jackson. I don't think he drafted the document himself.
I think you can see a bit of how the person really is by his/her handwriting style. In this particular case it seams childish to me... and this person is ruling over 8 million people.

This is from Conti's appeal veredict:
Monica Applewhite, a clinical social worker and an expert on child sexual abuse, testified for defendants that Watchtower’s policy against “disclosing private information . . . very closely mirror[ed]” the codes of ethics of the National Association of Social Workers and the American Counseling Association. Based on her review of the evidence, Applewhite opined that the Congregation never put Kendrick “into a position that required or allowed him to be alone with children, to be in supervision of children, [or] to spend time with children away from their families.” Because the church’s activities did not separate children from their parents, Appelwhite opined that its best means of protecting children was to educate parents about child sexual abuse, and it exceeded the standard of care for such education in the 1990’s. According to Applewhite, the elders met the standard of care in Kendrick’s case when they left it up to Evelyn and her daughter whether to tell the police about the abuse he admitted, and “they kept a special watch on him and paid attention to whether or not he had any inappropriate contact with children within the meetings at Kingdom Hall.”
