民主便是對所有人都要公平，要有機制和制衡，令大家體現人人平等，亦能保存人性的寶貴。
Democracy means equal treatment to everyone under a system with check and balance which manifests equality among the people and preserves the value of humanity . Let us quote a case in the Mainland as an example
當中亦有一個論題很值得關注，便是威權政體如何獲得管治的合法性。
Another subject at the seminar worthy of our attention was how the authoritarian regimes legitimize their governance
他在1944年曾說，中國是有缺點的，而且是很大的缺點，這種缺點，一言以蔽之，就是缺乏民主。
He said in 1944 that China had flaws big flaws . To put it concisely the flaw was having no democracy
只有民主才能使中國在戰後繼續團結。
Only democracy could give them the strength to fight the war Only democracy could continue uniting China after the war
中國缺乏民主，是在座諸位所深知的。
That China lacks democracy is well known by Members in this Council
香港只要有民主，我們才能再前進一步；只要有民主，我們才能保護我們的城市。
Hong Kong can only progress with democracy; we can only protect our city with democracy
假如我們仍然要用八三一框架來重啟政改、選出我們的政府的話，它不會向香港人負責，只會向中共負責，因為提名便等於選舉結果，提名只有中共可以操縱。
If we still have to reactivate constitutional reform and elect our government within the 31 August framework the elected Chief Executive will not be responsible to Hong Kong people but the Communist Party of China as the Communist Party can completely manipulate the nomination and the nomination result is tantamount to the final result of the election
所以，我這次發言是支持郭家麒議員的議案。
Therefore I support Dr KWOK Ka - kis motion
在八三一框架下經過篩選得出的政府，是造假選舉產生的假政府，而選出的特首或政府只不過是政權的爪牙，只會附和政權。
The government screened within the 31 August framework is a government produced by a fake election and the Chief Executive or the government elected this way will merely be a lackey who will be a yes - man of the regime
例如，李議員，我問你一個問題，你想我如何稱呼你呢？
For example Ms LEE I would like to ask you a question How would you like me to call you?
接着，我會整體評論一下香港水資源出現的規劃問題，由政府以至社會文化，我都會談及，並希望提出一些具體的解決方法，令我們的城市可以更好地運用水資源，以期節省庫房公帑。
Therefore we can see that the problem of water wastage or the planning of water resources in Hong Kong requires our immediate attentions . Next I will comment on the problems concerning Hong Kongs overall planning of our water resources I will speak on issues ranging from the Government to social culture and hopefully I can propose specific solutions to enable our city to make better use of our water resources with a view to saving money from the public coffers
談到處理水資源問題，不外乎開源節流和有效運用。
When we talk about issues concerning how we should handle our water resources they are nothing more than tapping new source cutting consumption and their effective use
香港用水有兩個來源，包括東江水，大約佔70%至80%，以及本地集水，大約佔20%至30%。
Hong Kong has two sources including Dongjiang water which accounts for approximately 70 % to 80 % and rainfall from local catchments which accounts for about 20 % to 30 %
第一，由於香港浪費食水問題其實很嚴重，所以我們要減少浪費食水。
First as the water wastage problem in Hong Kong is very serious therefore we should reduce the wastage of water
截至2015年，淡水的流失率更上升至三分之一。
As at 2015 the freshwater wastage rate had increased by one third
我們看到政府在水資源的行政管理上已浪費很多食水，而我剛才說過市民也浪費了很多水，所以第一個方向是加強處理水管滲漏問題和鼓勵水資源保育，教育市民節省食水，這是非常重要的方向。
We can see that the Government has already wasted a large volume of freshwater in the management of water resources and I have said just now that the public have also wasted a lot of water . Therefore the first direction is to enhance the treatment of water mains leakage encourage the conservation of water resources and educate the public to save water . This is a very important direction
郊野公園與保護水資源息息相關，而郊野公園也是肩負保護食水免受污染和保障食水來源供應的很重要的地方。
Country parks are closely linked to the protection of water resources and country parks are the footholds for protecting freshwater from contamination and safeguarding the supply and source of freshwater
同時，政府也缺乏保護水資源的管理概念。
At the same time the Government lacks the management concept of protecting water resources
舉例來說，現時香港河流上游由水務署管理，下游由渠務署管理。
For example upper reaches of rivers are managed by the Water Supplies Department WSD while lower reaches of rivers are managed by the Drainage Services Department DSD
首先，我們要問，為何我們要關注水？
First of all we have to ask why should we concern about water?
此外，渠務署會將河道渠務化，將河流鋪滿水泥、拉直，從而影響生態和水資源，結果出現很多臭河。
Besides DSD tends to treat rivers as sewage systems . They will fill the river bed with cement and straighten up the bends and thereby causing an impact on the ecology and water resources . As a result a number of stinky rivers have emerged
因此，我們要完善香港自然和河流的規劃，才能保障食水的供應，政府就此恰好沒有長遠目標。
For that reason we need to improve Hong Kongs natural environment and planning management of river if we are to protect the supply of freshwater . However the Government fails to establish a long - term goal in this area
因此，我希望政府能就着這3個方向，繼續努力。
For that reason I hope the Government will continue to make an effort in these three directions
我經常聽到一句很睿智的說話，就是"錢是你的，但資源是大家的"，意思是當土豪吃喝時，我可以指着他們說："你的錢是你自己的，你喜歡如何花費也可以；但資源是大家的，是不能浪費的。
We have heard a wise saying from time to time that is The money is yours but the resources belong to everyone . The meaning is that when those vulgar tycoons are eating and drinking I can point my finger at them and say The money is yours therefore you can spend it in whatsoever way; but the resources belong to each and every person thus you should not waste them
這不單可以減少對內地的依賴，更重要的是，透過提出這項議題，讓我們嘗試思考如何處理香港水資源規 劃的問題，以及重新思考人類與自然的生活方式，而這正正是大家忽略已久的問題。
This will not only reduce our reliance on the Mainland but more importantly the topic of discussion can enable us to try to think about how we should deal with the issue concerning the planning of Hong Kongs water resources as well as to rethink the interactions between human beings and the nature which is a long - forgotten issue to us
因此，我援引建制派前議員在過去的發言，希望建制派同事本着良心和誠信，支持成立調查委員會，把事情查個水落石出。
Thus I have quoted the speech previously made by a pro - establishment Member in the hope that Members of the pro - establishment camp will vote according to their conscience and integrity and support the formation of an investigation committee so as to find out the truth
梁振英公然干預立法機關昭然若揭，他亦已承認周浩鼎議員幫了他一大把。
It is very obvious that LEUNG Chun - ying has blatantly interfered with the affairs of the legislature and he also admitted that Mr Holden CHOW helped him a lot
五年前，部分自由黨同事也說出似乎合理的說話；但我們今天聽到甚麼？
Five years ago some Members of the Liberal Party had made some reasonable remarks but what did we hear today?
她的措辭與《文匯報》、《大公報》和《環球時報》無異。
The words used by her were no different from those in Wen Wei Po Ta Kung Pao and the Global Times
在機場如此敏感的地方，我也曾被公然毆打、被潑不知名液體，整個過程也被錄影下來。
In a place as sensitive as the Airport I was openly assaulted and splashed with unknown liquid . The whole process was videotaped
李慧琼議員說我們隨意指控，其實絕不合理。
In fact it is absolutely unreasonable for Ms Starry LEE to say that we are making arbitrary accusations
李慧琼議員又說，議案淪為打壓異己的政治鬥爭工具。
Ms Starry LEE also said that the motion has been used as a political tool of suppressing ones opponent
律政司作為建制派和政府的喉舌打壓異己，毫不手軟。
The Department of Justice being a mouthpiece of the pro - establishment camp and the Government spares no effort in suppressing its opponents
此外，梁振英亦對指控作出否認，發表了一篇語意不焉、狗屁不通、文句不順，連DSE學生也寫得更好的所謂辯駁網誌。
Moreover LEUNG Chun - ying has denied the accusations against him . He has written a blog in defence which is ambiguous nonsensical and incoherent and I believe even a DSE student can do better . I do not know if the blog was written by LEUNG Chun - ying himself or by Andrew FUNG
何謂飛機租賃呢？
Actually what is aircraft leasing?
簡單而言，就是公司 即這些飛機租賃公司做包租公，借入"平錢"，買入飛機，再以較高的租金租出去，賺取中間的利潤。
To put it simply it is a business under which the aircraft leasing companies or the lessors borrow cheap money to buy aircraft and lease them out at higher rents . The lessors then reap profits from the spread
中銀航空租賃去年的純利率更高達31.5%，相比我們的航空業巨頭，國泰純利率只有5.9%，難怪政府希望推動飛機租賃業務。
Last years net profit margin of BOC Aviation Limited amounted to 31.5 % compared with a mere 5.9 % for our aviation heavyweight Cathay Pacific . No wonder the Government wishes to promote the aircraft leasing business
今年施政報告提出"政府計劃今年向立法會提交修訂《稅務條例》的草案，推出稅務優惠，吸引公司來港發展飛機租賃業務"。
It is stated in this years Policy Address that [t]he Government plans to introduce a bill into the Legislative Council this year to amend the Inland Revenue Ordinance to offer tax concession so as to attract companies to develop aircraft leasing business in Hong Kong
我們從過去的例子看看，究竟這次我們推動飛機租賃產業，有甚麼需要注意，整體而言，對於香港又是否好事呢？
Let us look at the past concessions to gain an insight into what we should pay attention to this time and whether such policy is beneficial to Hong Kong
政府以住其實也有估錯行業發展的狀況，包括前特首曾蔭權在2009年的施政報告裏提出六大優勢產業，包括教育產業、醫療產業、檢測和認證產業、環保產業、創新科技產業，以及文化及創意產業，最後大多慘淡收場。
For example former Chief Executive Mr Donald TSANG proposed in the 2009 Policy Address the development of six economic areas where Hong Kong enjoyed clear advantages . They were education services medical services testing and certification services environmental industries innovation and technology and cultural and creative industries . However most of them ended up in a fiasco
但是，除了這項條例外，政府還有否其他相應的配套措施呢？
Here in Hong Kong has the Government put in place any corresponding support measures in additional to the introduction of this Bill?
例如香港只簽訂了36個防止雙重課稅的協定，相對於愛爾蘭有72個和新加坡有76個，似乎這方面的配套，香港也未必具 有競爭力，可以與這兩地相較，能夠提供更大的誘因，希望更多的公司將總部設置在香港。
For example Hong Kong has so far concluded an avoidance of double taxation agreement with 36 jurisdictions compared with 72 for Ireland and 76 for Singapore . It appears that Hong Kong may not be as competitive as the two countries in this area and is thus unable to provide any greater incentive for more companies to establish their headquarters in Hong Kong
總括而言，我認為政府必須進一步向公眾和立法會解釋，今次發展飛機租賃業務的方向，同時需要全面檢討現時的稅務政策和經濟發展的方向。
All in all I think the Government has to further explain to the public and the Legislative Council the development direction of the aircraft leasing business . There is also a need for a comprehensive review of the existing taxation policy and the direction of economic development
香港在2016年6月已向經合組織承諾會落實BEPS方案。
Hong Kong indicated to OECD in June 2016 its commitment to implementing the BEPS package
很多同事剛才也批評政府的諮詢範圍狹窄，只詢問業界意見，對於減稅業界當然無任歡迎，但是有關的評稅制度卻不一樣，即使兩種評稅方式所達到的減稅幅度相近，也有可能造成混亂及有優劣之分。
Many fellow colleagues have criticized the scope of the Governments consultation as too narrow since it was conducted only with trade members who would of course welcome any proposals to reduce tax . However when two different tax assessment options are available although both options could bring about tax reduction at a similar rate confusions might be caused and one of the options would be considered superior to the other
所以，同一機制，對事實的研判不一時便會出現一體兩面的結果。
Therefore there will be two sides to the same story depending on what judgment is made for the case
再收窄一點看，該文件亦指出，在2012年至2032年間，大陸的航空公司約需要6,000架飛機，佔預計付運到亞太區的飛機數目高達四成。
Viewing from a narrower perspective it is also pointed out in the paper that from 2012 to 2032 Mainland airline companies will need nearly 6 000 new aircraft accounting for 40 % of the forecasted deliveries to the Asia Pacific region
根據文件所指，愛爾蘭作為全球飛機租賃業務的領導者，佔全球機隊總數約五成五，十大飛機租賃商也落戶愛爾蘭，其中5間更在愛爾蘭成立總部，為何當地有如此強大的競爭優勢呢？
As pointed out in a related paper Ireland is the global leader in aircraft leasing and manages about 55 % of the global fleet . All the top 10 aircraft lessors are now located in Ireland and five of them even headquartered there . What are the reasons for the competitive strengths of Ireland?
關於今次修訂，很多議員剛才也從宏觀上或經濟上提出了他們的看法，我稍後亦會再作闡述，但我想繼續補充一點，就是我對OECD)的建議，以及法案委員會採納OECD建議的一些意見。
With regard to the amendments proposed a number of Members have already expressed their views from a macro or an economic perspective and I will also elaborate my views further . But meanwhile I would like to comment on the recommendations of the Organisation for Economic Co - operation and Development OECD and the adoption of such recommendations by the Bills Committee
文件中列出了以下數點：第一，有利的地理位置和健全的法律制度。
According to that paper they can be attributable to the following factors First of all favourable geographical location and sound legal system
愛爾蘭位處歐洲與美洲之間，是跨大西洋的重要門戶，有利經營飛機租賃業務。
Ireland is situated at the transatlantic gateway between Europe and America thereby facilitating the operation of aircraft leasing business
還有一個因素是政府可以考慮的，因為愛爾蘭做得如此成功，是由於它有廣泛的雙重課稅協定網絡。
There is also another factor which the Government may consider because the success of Ireland can also be attributable to its extensive network of double tax agreements
雙重課稅所指的是納稅人就同一項收入同時被兩個司法管轄區徵稅，包括產生收入的司法管轄區，以及接收收入的司法管轄區，為何這對飛機租賃業務如此重要呢？
Double taxation occurs when a taxpayer is taxed twice on the same income by two jurisdictions including the jurisdiction where the income arises and the jurisdiction where the income is received . Why is this so important to aircraft leasing business?
香港在雙重課稅協定網絡方面較為輸蝕，因為我們只有30多個合作單位，但愛爾蘭則有70多個。
Hong Kongs performance in establishing a network of double tax agreements is inferior to other places since we have signed such agreements with only 30 odd jurisdictions so far while Ireland has already concluded such agreements with over 70 jurisdictions
就有關把稅務寬減範圍延伸至境內飛機租賃活動，亦即OECD提出要處理的修正案，政府提出了以下數個原因：第一，OECD在2015年推出了一套行動計劃，以打擊侵蝕稅基及轉移利潤。
In response to the requirement of OECD Committee stage amendments CSAs have been proposed by the Government to extend the coverage of tax concession measures to onshore aircraft leasing activities and the reasons are First of all OECD released a package of actions to combat base erosion and profit shifting BEPS in 2015
年青人真正對其越走越遠的，不是六四事件，而是對中國政府及中國人的身份認同。
Young people are walking farther and farther way from the Chinese Government and recognition of the Chinese identity rather than the 4 June incident
我記得我第一次參與"六四維園晚會"，大約在五六年前。
As far as I can remember I participated in the 4 June vigil in the Victoria Park for the very first time around five or six years ago
我在網上看過一篇文章，筆者說了一句話令我印象深刻，他說他當時有一股身為中國人的感覺，原因是當代中國人仍願意為理想拋頭顱、灑熱血，他們看到的是充滿着理想主義的中國。
I have read an article on the Internet and a remark of the writer has left a deep impression on me . He says that at the time he had a strong feeling of being a Chinese because those Chinese people from that generation were still prepared to sacrifice their lives and shed their blood in order to strive for their ideals and what they could see was a China filled with idealism
但是，這並不影響我們紀念六四、悼念六四和爭取"平反六四"，因為即使我們不把這群六四事件中的學生及死難者視為同胞，但我們也有一種身為追求自由的人的自覺和共鳴，亦有同樣是受中國政府壓迫者的一種連結。
But this does not affect our commemoration and mourning of the 4 June incident or our fight for its vindication . The reason is that even if we refuse to regard the students and those who died in the 4 June incident as our comrades we as people in pursuit of freedom also feel the kind of self - awakening and echo with them along with a sense of connection with those who are likewise under oppression by the Chinese Government
《一九八四》的作者George ORWELL曾經說過，所有歷史都是當代史，因為歷史是由當權者撰寫的，他可以因應其政治利益而肆意篡改。
As George ORWELL once said the author of Nineteen Eighty - Four all history is contemporary history as it is compiled by the incumbent ruler who may blatantly distort it to serve his political interests
我們看到在香港，很多我們熟悉的歷史已開始變得面目模糊。
As we can see many historical facts in which we are well - versed have begun to grow obscure in Hong Kong
在與我們一境之隔的中國，在6月4日已經不能夠在"微博"發放有關信息和圖片。
In China just across the boundary people were barred from posting any related messages and photographs on Weibo on 4 June
所以，傳承記憶是多麼重要的事。
This explains why the inheritance of memory is such an important task
而這記憶也得來不易，當年的學聯代表林耀強離開北京時，有很多中國學生為他擋子彈，希望他能夠把這件事告知全世界。
And our memory of the 4 June incident is also hard to come by . When LAM Yiu - keung a representative of the Hong Kong Federation of Students left Beijing back in that year many Chinese students came forward to shield him against gunshots hoping that he could make this incident known to the whole world
"結束一黨專政，追究屠城責任"！
Pursuing responsibility for the massacre; ending one - party dictatorship!
我是一個例子，我支持黃碧雲議員"平反六四"的議案，我要追究共產黨的屠城責任，而民調亦告訴大家，年青人實際上是在所有年齡層中最支持"平反六四"的一群。
I support Dr Helena WONGs motion on vindicating the 4 June incident . I must hold the Chinese Communist Party responsible for the massacre . Besides as we have learnt from certain public opinion surveys young people have shown the greatest support for vindication of the 4 June incident among people of various age groups
很多人說，我們支持"平反六四"只是基於愛國情緒，我不禁要問，如果只是基於這原因，那麼，那些曾親身經歷六四、較我們年長的人，不是應該比我們更支持"平反六四"，更支持當年的民主運動嗎？
Many people have asserted that our support for vindication of the 4 June incident is based on our patriotic sentiments . Then I must ask If this is the sole reason should it not be true to say that those older than us who experienced the 4 June incident should show even greater support for vindication of the 4 June incident than we do and the pro - democracy movement back in that year?
基於這種思維，政府經常認為市區交通繁忙，不鼓勵以單車代步。
This mentality prompts the Government to focus on the busy traffic in the urban areas and thus considers cycling should not be encouraged
香港現時有218.5公里的單車徑，分布於沙田、元朗、大埔、北區、西貢、屯門和大嶼山，基本上港島和九龍區連一條單車徑也沒有，將單車與繁忙城市隔絕。
There are 218.5 km of cycle tracks in Hong Kong located in Sha Tin Yuen Long Tai Po Northern District Sai Kung Tuen Mun and Lantau Island . There is basically no cycle track on Hong Kong Island and in Kowloon which means bicycles are excluded from busy downtown areas
事實上，外國不少交通繁忙的城市也可發展成單車友善城市。
In fact many overseas cities with busy traffic can be developed into bicycle - friendly cities
相反，我們從很多不同國家的例子可見，單車可以解決很多空氣污染、交通擠塞等問題。
On the contrary we have learnt from the experience of many different countries that bicycles may solve the many problems relating to air pollution and traffic congestion
最令人憤慨的是，政府在施政報告只用一個段落提及單車政策，說要完善單車徑網絡，但在《公共交通策略研究》中，單車卻未被納入研究範圍。
I am most enraged that the Government has only mentioned a bicycle policy in a paragraph in the Policy Address by saying that it will enhance cycle track networks . However the Public Transport Strategy Study does not include bicycles in its scope of study
究竟政府是否有心發展"單車友善政策"呢？
Is the Government sincere in developing a bicycle - friendly policy?
即使香港有218.5公里單車徑，在官僚部門得過且過的態度之下，單車徑的設計和配套一直十分落後。
There are 218.5 km of cycling tracks in Hong Kong . But given the perfunctory attitude of bureaucratic departments the designs and ancillary facilities of cycle tracks are very much outdated
香港的單車運動員聞名於世，但與此同時，香港擁有"全球最短的單車徑"、"路口有多支塑膠護柱阻擋"等情況，也是蜚聲國際。
Cycling athletes of Hong Kong have made a name for themselves in the world . Yet at the same time Hong Kong is also world - famous for having the shortest cycle track in the world and many plastic bollards blocking cycle track exits
香港因單車徑設計問題導致交通意外不時發生，例如僅有5厘米闊的單車徑、落斜設迴旋處等，去年發生的單車意外，有一半也是在單車徑上發生的。
In Hong Kong road accidents caused by designs of cycle tracks such as 5 - cm wide cycle tracks and downhill roundabouts occur time and again . Half of the accidents involving bicycles last year occurred on cycle tracks
這些全部也是政策範圍可以修改的規定，但卻受政府僵化的管理思維限制，非不能也，實不為也。
All these requirements can be amended within the relevant policy areas yet they are restricted by the fossilized management mentality of the Government . It is not a matter of ability but willingness
其實，推動社區單車租賃服務的責任本應在政府身上。
Actually it is the responsibility of the Government to promote community bicycle rental services
今年施政報告又表示，"協助團體以非牟利及自負盈虧形式營辦社區單車租賃服務"，前後矛盾，實在令人大開眼界。
The Policy Address this year also stated that the authorities would assist organizations in operating self - financing community bicycle rental services on a non - profit - making basis
根據《香港規劃標準與準則》，我們看到政府這樣子形容踏單車："踏單車基本上是一種康體活動。
According to the Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines the Government describes cycling in the following way cycling is essentially a recreational sport
因此，我十分希望政府承擔推動單車政策的角色，不要甚麼也推給民間處理。
Hence I earnestly hope that the Government will take up its role in promoting a bicycle policy instead of shifting the responsibility to the community
去年，涉及單車意外的傷亡人數高達2,159人，單車代步就好像是意外的代名詞，既沒有配套，也沒有政策，踏單車似乎十分危險，"單車友善政策"在市民眼中越來越遠。
Last year as many as 2 159 people were injured in bicycle - related accidents . Accidents seem to be a synonym for cycling . Since no matching measures and policies are introduced cycling seems to be very dangerous and the public realize that bicycle - friendly policy is increasingly out of reach
但是，除了這方面之外，我們還看到政府現在應對民間社會越變活躍的趨勢及處理民間社會力量的組織時，採取了非常封閉的思維。
However this aspect aside we also note that the Government has adopted a very closed mindset in response to the growingly active civic society and dealing with organizations formed by forces in the civic society
我們可以用兩個例子來看。
We can examine the matter with two examples
上課學生達到指定人數時，便需要申請牌照。
A licence is required when the students attending a course reaches a specified number
所以，綜觀而言，政府一方面說要擁抱智識型經濟，但是，在很多情況下，需要拆牆鬆綁，處理這些過時法例，壯大民間社會，才有機會做得到。
Therefore all in all the Government said it needs to embrace the knowledge - based economy . However under many circumstances such a goal can only be achieved by the removal of regulations and restrictions handling such outdated legislation and a thriving civic society
我們說知識型經濟，一個要點就是，政府要懂得將權力下放，與民共議，善用民間智慧。
When we talk about knowledge - based economy one key point is that the Government should know how to delegate its powers and engage the public to make good use of community wisdom
梁議員，我們今天這項議案辯論的題目是"革新過時法例，促進創新科技發展"。
Mr LEUNG the topic of the motion debate today is Reforming outdated legislation and promoting the development of innovation and technology
而提到拆牆鬆綁，不應只用於產業發展，更要用來保障民間社會舉辦活動和自我組織的權利。
Removal of regulations and restrictions should be carried out not only for the sake of developing industries but also be employed to protect the civic societys rights to activities and self - organization
主席，我想你裁定，你佩戴經民聯的徽章，是否符合《議事規則》第42a條有關莊重的規定。
President I wish to seek your ruling on whether your wearing of a lapel pin of the Business and Professionals Alliance for Hong Kong complies with the requirement of decorum under Rule 42a of the Rules of Procedure
就此，警方有否探討原因，以及有否計劃參考英國監警會的做法，賦予監警會進行獨立調查的權力呢？
In this connection did the Police look into the reasons and do they plan to draw reference from the practice of the British IPCC of vesting IPCC with the power to conduct independent investigations?
事實上，李飛在釋法當天強調，《基本法》第一百零四條本質是關乎政治效忠，要求公職人員效忠是天經地義的。
Actually on the day of the Interpretation Mr LI Fei stressed that Article 104 of BL was basically about political allegiance and that asking public officers to pledge allegiance was perfectly justified
大家看到近年有很多自資課程缺乏監管的事故，例如2013年嶺南大學社區學院......
The public are aware of many incidents resulting from a lack of monitoring of self - financing programmes . For example in 2013 The Community College at Lingnan University
該等基本方針政策包括：特區享有獨立的司法權和終審權、港幣繼續流通、特區政府可自行簽發出入香港的旅行證件等等。
Such basic policies include the following the SAR will be vested with independent judicial power and power of final adjudication the Hong Kong dollar will continue to circulate and the SAR Government may on its own issue travel documents for entry into and exit from Hong Kong etc
中英兩國政府於1984年12月簽署的《中英聯合聲明》第三款載述中國政府就中國對香港特別行政區的基本方針政策的聲明。
Paragraph 3 of the Sino - British Joint Declaration signed between the Chinese and British Governments in December 1984 sets out the Chinese Governments declaration on Chinas basic policies regarding the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region SAR
從政府的主體答覆看來，其實它是拒絕承認2047年是一個需要討論的政治時間，這是令市民感到很焦慮的。
The main reply of the Government shows that the Government actually refuses to admit that 2047 is a political time frame which needs discussions and the public are deeply worried about such a situation
假如這個"五十年不變"是沒有任何意義、2047年這個時限對香港是沒有任何其他特別意思的，又怎會寫明於一部小憲法內呢？
If the promise of remaining unchanged for 50 years has no significance and if the time frame of 2047 does not bear any other specific meaning to Hong Kong why are they specified in the mini - constitution?
我想跟進的是，既然副局長認為和相信"一國兩制"是對香港最好的安排，他亦相信國際社會一致認同《基本法》實施以來一直運作良好，但近年《中英聯合聲明》的另一個締約國英國，它亦有很多聲明也關注到"一國兩制"在香港的落實狀況，例如李波事件等。
My follow - up question is The Under Secretary considers and believes that one country two systems is the best arrangement for Hong Kong and he also believes that the international community has unanimously agreed that the Basic Law has been functioning well since its implementation . However the United Kingdom another signatory of the Sino - British Joint Declaration has issued many statements in recent years expressing concerns on the implementation of one country two systems in Hong Kong such as the LEE Po incident
