在經濟下行的環境下，保持公共財政的可持續性非常重要，因此，在下一個財政年度公務員編制的目標是零增長。
It is of utmost importance to maintain the sustainability of public finance amidst the economic downturn . It is therefore our target to have zero growth in the civil service establishment in the coming financial year
第一，"明日大嶼"是真正可以增加土地的選項，而其他選項，不論是興建新發展區、收回棕地，甚至是收回遊樂場用地，均是"塘水滾塘魚"，會影響一些土地的現有用途，所以難免要覓地重新安置，某種意義上只是土地的"零和遊戲"。
Firstly Lantau Tomorrow is an option that can really increase land supply whereas other options whether they are the development of new development areas the resumption of brownfield sites or even the resumption of recreational sites are only trade - offs which will affect the current uses of some land making it inevitable to identify sites for relocation . In a sense those options constitute only a zero - sum game for land use
但是，事實上古洞北、粉嶺北內有很多木廠和不同的工業等，正支撐着建築業的發展。
However in fact the numerous sawmills and other different industrial undertakings at Kwu Tung North and Fanling North are supporting the development of the construction industry
"明日大嶼"人工島另一個優勢便是位置，以及它能提供的一整片、大面積的土地。
Another advantage of the artificial islands under the Lantau Tomorrow Vision is their location as well as the large single pieces of land they can provide
人工島的位置十分接近中環，加上其策略性的基建，好像機場及鐵路等，足以打造成香港第三個核心商業區。
The close proximity to Central coupled with strategic infrastructure such as the airport and rail links enables the artificial islands to be shaped into the third core business district of Hong Kong
然而，"明日大嶼"正正可以將"居住"和"就業"結合，即使退一萬步來看，區內就業不足，而市民要跨區工作時，路程也比很多地區的人近一大截，這亦是其他選項未必做到的地方。
In contrast Lantau Tomorrow can rightly combine living with employment . Even in the worst scenario where members of the public have to work across districts because of insufficient employment in the region the journeys are much shorter than those for the people in many districts . This is also something not necessarily achievable with other options
主席，雖然"明日大嶼"有其好處，但始終不是中短期可看到成效，而要在短期內增加土地供應，只能盡量用好每一分土地。
President Lantau Tomorrow has its advantages but by all accounts no results will be visible in the short and medium term . The only way to increase land supply in the short term is to make the best use of every inch of land
我記得在2014年時，政府曾一次過將市區和新市鎮的地積比率提高約兩成，最近再將公營房屋的地積比率多加一成，足足加了三成。
I recall that in 2014 the Government increased the plot ratio of urban areas and new towns by 20 % in one go . Recently it further increased the plot ratio of public housing by 10 % adding up to a whopping 30 %
當然，在這8個選項裏，"明日大嶼"即中部水域人工島的填海計劃肯定是最具爭議，而爭議的焦點在於"錢"。
Among these eight options Lantau Tomorrow ie . the reclamation project for developing artificial islands in the Central Waters is certainly the most controversial one and the focus of the controversy is money
擁有私樓單位，是很多家庭的夢想，但成為業主，也不等於可以安居樂業，現時全港約有40,000幢私人大廈，當中有5,400幢是屬於沒有任何管理形式的大廈，即所謂的"三無大廈"。
344 and the way to form an owners corporation OC for management are the focus of my concern . Owning a private residential unit is the dream of many families but becoming a property owner does not mean that one can live in peace and work in contentment . At present there are about 40 000 private buildings in Hong Kong of which 5 400 are buildings without any form of management that is the so - called three - nil buildings
我相信政府希望透過預算案給予公眾信心，所以在預算案內重申："政府有足夠的財政能力實現'明日大嶼'願景"。
I believe the Government hopes to inspire public confidence through the Budget and that is why it has reiterated The Government is financially capable of realizing the Lantau Tomorrow Vision
未來在2019-2020年度，民政事務總署亦會與香港律師會合作推出免費大廈管理外展法律諮詢服務，為法團安排免費律師協助舉行業主大會等。
Going forward in 2019 - 2020 HAD will launch Free Outreach Legal Advice Service on Building Management in collaboration with The Law Society of Hong Kong arranging free lawyers to assist OCs in the conduct of general meetings
好像現時涉及全港大廈管理有關職務的聯絡主任只有138人，來年也只會增加6人至144人。
For example there are currently only 138 Liaison Officers engaged in building management duties across the territory and the number will increase by only six next year to 144
其實，在預算案發表之前，發展局破天荒地首次就"明日大嶼"的成本和收益進行估算。
In actuality before the Budget was released the Development Bureau had unprecedentedly estimated the cost and revenue in relation to Lantau Tomorrow
第三，建議三地政府設立文創知識產權統一資料庫，發揮分享、統籌、配對和推廣四大功能，從而擴大三地的文化IP生態圈，為提升文創價值及進行跨界融合發展提供更好的基礎，例如廣州已發布全國首個城市文化IP庫，我認為三地可以參考有關做法。
The database will perform the functions of sharing coordination matching and promotion so as to expand the cultural IP ecosystem in the three regions and provide a better basis for enhancing the value of cultural and creative industries and for cross - boundary integrated development . For instance a cultural IP database has been set up in Guangzhou which is the first one in the country . I hold that governments of the three regions can refer to this approach
我們建議三地政府成立大灣區國際文創知識產權交易中心，加強文創產權交易的種類和規模，並透過互聯互通等方式，匯集三地的文創IP資源，以及完善倉儲、鑒定、物流、託管、結算、孵化和推廣等周邊配套服務，以文創加金融模式打造出大灣區國際文創知識產權交易中心，推動文創產業發展。
We propose that the governments of the three regions should establish an international cultural and creative IP trading centre in GBA to enrich the types and scale of cultural and creative IP trading and that they should pool together cultural and creative IP resources of the three regions through mutual access and improve peripheral services such as storage identification logistics custodianship settlement incubation and promotion so as to create an international cultural and creative IP trading centre in GBA through a combination of culture creativity and finance to promote the development of cultural and creative industries
所以，除了教育系統外，其實特區政府在其他方面也可推出政策和措施，講好中國故事，包括開放本地頻譜予內地電視台，甚至在公共屋邨安裝衞星電視系統，接收內地的電視頻道，讓香港市民觀看內地的電視節目，了解國家發展狀況。
So apart from the education system the SAR Government can also introduce policies and measures in other areas to properly tell well the story of China including opening up the local spectrums for Mainland TV channels and installing satellite TV system in public housing estates to receive Mainland TV channels so that Hong Kong people can watch Mainland TV programmes and understand the development of our country
民建聯認為特區政府需制訂更積極的產業政策，特別在推動粵港澳大灣區文化創意產業發展方面。
The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong DAB believes that the SAR Government needs to formulate a more proactive industry policy particularly in the promotion of the development of cultural and creative industries in the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area GBA
怎樣推廣更多綠色能源汽車？例如氫能源。
How should it promote a wider use of vehicles powered by green energies such as hydrogen energy?
現時大灣區內的綠色建築，除了藉着更換外觀材料、安裝節能人工照明設備、改善空氣處理裝置、增加使用需求控制通風系統等方法，更加加入一些物聯網技術，令住宅、商廈、工廈成為零碳或低碳節能的智能建築。
Speaking of the existing green buildings in GBA apart from adopting such measures as replacing exterior materials installing energy - saving artificial lighting devices improving air processing units and increasing the use of demand - controlled ventilation systems they have even incorporated certain technologies based on the Internet of Things . That way residential commercial and industrial buildings have been turned into smart buildings with zero - or low - carbon emission and good energy conservation performance
這些綠色節能措施能減少高層建築物消耗過量的城市電力，亦非常值得我們參考。
Such green or energy conservation measures can reduce urban electricity consumption in high - rise buildings and they merit our reference
《建築物條例》有多方面值得我們進行檢視及修訂。
Many aspects in the Buildings Ordinance merit our review and revision
現時政府已做了一點點，例如電動車，政府在要求市民以電動車取代燃油車的時候，亦鼓勵商場、停車場安裝更多充電設施，這些都是由政府資助的。
At present the Government has already done something one example being electric vehicles . When the Government urges people to replace their fuel - driven vehicles with electric vehicles it also encourages shopping arcades and car parks to install more charging facilities . All this are subsidized by the Government
所以，政府除了協助加裝充電設施，是否都應該從《建築物條例》着手呢？
Therefore apart from assisting in the installation of more charging facilities should the Government do something with the Buildings Ordinance?
主席，在內地生活的香港人均與香港保持密切聯繫，容許他們在境外投票其實是便民的措施，加上特區政府一直鼓勵香港市民融入國家的發展，以及把握大灣區的機遇，北上就業或居住，所以，香港政府有責任確保市民在內地發展之餘，亦可以有投票權。
President Hong Kong people who live in the Mainland have maintained close ties with Hong Kong . Allowing them to vote outside Hong Kong is actually a measure that brings convenience to the people and as the SAR Government has all along incentivized Hong Kong residents to integrate into the national development and seize the opportunities in the Greater Bay Area by going northward for employment or living the Hong Kong Government is duty - bound to ensure that the residents can have the right to vote when pursuing development in the Mainland
我想問局長，在特首公布了有關的意願之後，特區政府做了甚麼前期工作，以落實香港市民在內地投票的安排？
I would like to ask the Secretary this After the Chief Executive made public this wish what preparatory work has the SAR Government carried out to implement the arrangement for Hong Kong residents to vote in the Mainland?
主席，局長剛才回答時指出，除了催淚煙之外，在焚燒各類物品的過程中都會釋放一些有害物質，例如二噁英等。
President the Secretary just highlighted in her reply that some toxic substances like dioxin will be released not only from tear gas but also in the burning of various kinds of objects
我想問局長會否一視同仁，將這些混凝土廠安置在第137區，甚或安置在屯門第38區內某個位置？
May I ask the Secretary whether the CBPs will be resettled in Area 137 or in a certain location in Tuen Mun Area 38 so as to extend the same treatment to all?
如果梁君彥議員無法交出文件正本，他應該不符合參選資格。
If Mr Andrew LEUNG cannot produce the original document he should be regarded as ineligible to stand in the election
道理就是在香港，有一些人比其他人更平等。
It is reasonable for in Hong Kong certain people are more equal than others
另外，對於現行的公務員退休金制度，有一點我也很認同，就是按照通脹調整金額，但是只加不減，希望他們得到更好和更充裕的生活保障。
Another point regarding the existing pension scheme for civil servants which I agree is that the payment will be adjusted according to inflation where only upward but not downward adjustment is allowed for the authorities hope to provide civil servants with better and more abundant protection
這種涼薄的做法，正是政府需要反省的。
This is mean to do so and the Government has to reflect on this
為何同樣是退休金，政府在這個項目做得這麼好，在另一個項目卻做得這麼差？
It is about pension in both cases . Why would the Government do a great job in one case but perform poorly in another?
這個問題值得我們深思。
This is worthy of deep thoughts by us
在社會很富裕的情況下，仍然壓榨基層的利益，這個政府十分可耻。
Despite the affluence in society the interests of the grass roots are still subject to exploitation . What a shameful Government it is
但是，我必定會就這份財政預算案投下反對票，因為它對全民退休保障毫無承擔。
However I will absolutely vote against this Budget as it makes no commitment to universal retirement protection
小販、墟市的存在，其實是提供彈性，亦能確保他們能幫補家計。
The hawking trade and bazaars indeed offer the flexibility for them while ensuring them a means of livelihood
所以，我在此想帶出的是，可能我們的確需要迎合全球化競爭，但當全球化變成國際間的高端競爭時，很多小市民其實是難以過活，甚至做工作也有困難。
Therefore I wish to point out in this Council that despite the need to respond to competition brought about by globalization when globalization gives rise only to high - end completion between nations many members of the public are in fact living a underprivileged life . It is even not easy for them to get a job
提到食物及衞生局，我有深切感受，局方可謂相當離地、相當差。
Speaking of the Food and Health Bureau I have deep feeling indeed . The Bureau can be regarded as completely disconnected with the people performing really badly
可是，我們這個政策局是口惠而實不至，經常說自己態度開放，但結果實質換來的是高姿態和撒手不管。
However although the Policy Bureau has always talked about more openness what we have in reality are some disdainful arrogance and negligence instead
所謂由下而上，即是說要市民自行逐個部門叩門，政府所說的態度開放，即是不予理會，任由部門各自為政。
The so - called bottom - up approach effectively means that members of the public have to contact all the relevant departments one by one by themselves . When the Government talks about openness it simply means ignoring our concerns allowing the lack of coordination among departments to go on
直至這兩年團體不斷、不斷要求，政府才肯稍為放寬政策。
As a matter of fact the authorities did nothing at all . After the civil groups had been lobbying over the last two years the Government finally agreed to relax its policy a little bit
根本很簡單，他們要求的，不過是當局披露土地細節，令他們知道在哪裏可試行墟市。
They simply requested the authorities to disclose the details about the land leases so that they would know about the pilot sites for bazaars . Why was the Government so secretive in response to our enquiries about the land leases? . The document was kept restricted
團體要求的，只是希望下一步政府能夠成立種子基金，令他們可以增聘人手，真的做到政策梳理，令到這個社會區區有墟市。
What they are requesting is a follow - up on the part of the Government to establish a seed fund so that civil groups can have the means to hire sufficient staff to truly achieve policy rationalization so that each district can have their own bazaars
政府不論是投放在迪士尼樂園也好、亞投行也好、啟德體育園也好，港珠澳大橋這些廢物也好，每每數千億元、數百億元，但小小的種子基金，你們卻不肯撥款。
The Government has indiscriminately spent hundreds of billions or tens of billions dollars on such useless projects as Hong Kong Disneyland Resort the membership of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank the Kai Tak Sports Park Project and the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge yet it refuses to establish this tiny seed fund
摧毀新界東北，形同摧毀本地的農業。
The destruction of North East New Territories is tantamount to the destruction of our agricultural industry
我發言也是支持陳志全議員的兩項修正案，就總目60分目000，提出削減大約相當於路政署港珠澳大橋香港工程管理處全年預算運作開支，以及就總目159分目000，提出削減大約相當於發展局的個人薪酬下薪金的全年預算開支。
I also speak in support of Mr CHAN Chi - chuens two amendments one concerning head 60 in respect of subhead 000 which seeks to deduct an amount approximately equivalent to the annual estimated expenditure for the operation of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge Hong Kong Project Management Office under the Highways Department and the other one concerning head 159 in respect of subhead 000 which seeks to deduct an amount approximately equivalent to the annual estimated expenditure for the salaries in the personal emoluments of the Works Branch of the Development Bureau
粉嶺的高爾夫球場放在眼前，政府是象徵式收取很便宜的租金，讓富人打高爾夫球。
Regarding the Fanling Golf Course the Government only receives a nominal amount of peppercorn rent from the Golf Club for the rich to play golf
如果我們發展這些棕土，可以解決很多土地問題。
If we develop these brownfield sites many land problems can be resolved
就是發展局旗下的規劃署。
It is the Planning Department PlanD under the Development Bureau
就是富人的權益、權貴的權益。
It is developing the rights and interests of the rich and those in power
在2007年，政府公布的《香港2030：規劃遠景與策略》已經建議有效利用棕地。
In Hong Kong 2030 Planning Vision and Strategy published by the Government in 2007 it was already suggested that brownfield sites should be effectively used
在2016年的時候，他表示在2017年，我們迎難而上，這就是香港人的精神，我們一定要勇敢面對，做好棕地資料庫，發展棕地。
In 2016 he said that we would rise to the challenge in 2017 and this was the spirit of Hong Kong people and that we had to face the difficulties with courage and set up a database for brownfield sites for their development
其實，發展局是否真心發展棕土？
In fact is the Development Bureau sincere in the development of brownfield sites?
"官商鄉黑"成為現時社會上最流行的字眼，究竟是誰的責任，除了是特首的責任，會否也是發展局的責任呢？
Collusion among the Government business sector rural forces and triads has now become the most popular phrase in society . Who should be held accountable for this? . Apart from the Chief Executive should the Development Bureau be held accountable for this as well?
工人的人命是應該這樣被人踐踏嗎？
Should human lives be trampled like this?
為了興建這條港珠澳大橋，至今已有10人喪命，受傷的人數達到數百名，究竟是否值得呢？
In order to construct this Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge 10 human lives have already been claimed and a few hundred people were injured . Is it worthwhile?
這樣是合理的基建項目嗎？
Is it a reasonable infrastructural project?
這是一項殺人見血、草菅人命和不仁不義的"大白象"基建，這些就是發展局工務科縱容的"爛"工程。
It is a white elephant infrastructural project which is blood - shedding disregarding human lives and unrighteous . These are the rubbish projects condoned by the Works Branch of the Development Bureau
這是香港人的價值嗎？
Is it the value of Hong Kong people?
勞工及福利局局長負責制定扶貧、勞工、人力和福利政策的法例和措施，其中包括安老，我以下其實主要是就安老事務發言。
The Secretary for Labour and Welfare is responsible for the formulation of laws and measures in the areas of poverty alleviation labour manpower and welfare policies including the elderly care services
庫房內的儲備、資本家口袋裏的錢，其實很多也是這群長者用他們雙手和勞動所貢獻出來的。
It is through their hard work that the Treasury can build up its fiscal reserves and the capitalists accumulate their wealth
當他們年青的時候，這個社會十分貧窮，工資十分低，他們生兒育女，朝不保夕，無法自己儲錢，把所有也貢獻給社會和子女。
When they were young this city was very poor and their wages were utterly low . They gave birth to their children and reared them living from hand to mouth and giving everything to society and their children . Hardly could they make a saving for themselves
當他們一手撫養子女成長，令社會繁榮穩定之後，卻因為通脹、因為樓價高企，令到這個他們一手創造的繁榮社會，物價高昂至他們的積蓄不夠生活。
Now when their children have grown up and society has developed prosperously and stably the high inflation rate and soaring property prices force them to eke out a living with their small savings in this affluent society which they had once helped build up
所以，基本上，香港現時高齡長者的生活，真的十分需要人們照顧，但偏偏我們的政府在安老事務上，種種措施都只是隨便的空談，並沒有做到實質的扶持，所以今時今日，很多長者的生活真的十分悲慘。
As such todays elderly are badly in need of care services . Unfortunately instead of providing concrete assistance to the elderly our Government is merely engaged in empty talk casually . This explains why many elderly people are leading such miserable lives
我們談談在金錢上對長者的資助。
I would like to talk about the monetary assistance provided to the elderly
當這些綜援、"生果金"、長生津、傷殘津貼介入之後，原來，原有大概40萬貧窮長者之中，仍然有接近30萬人2012年是296,000名長者屬於貧窮狀態，其實情況是沒有改善的。
Following the Governments intervention in a form of monetary assistance which includes the payment of Comprehensive Social Security Assistance the fruit grant OALA and the disability allowance among the original 400 000 elderly people living in poverty some 300 000 people―296 000 elderly in 2012―are still living in poverty
當然， 勞工及福利局局長失職是涉及很多範疇，扶貧、勞工、人力沒有一樣做得好，但我最關注的，仍然是老人家的福祉，這也是我從政的其中一個最重大的理由。
Of course the Secretary for Labour and Welfare has neglected his duties in many policy areas he is responsible for . He has not done any good jobs in poverty alleviation labour and manpower . Yet I will focus my speech on the elderly care services as my prime concern is still the welfare of the elderly which is also the most important reason for my political engagement
我們向他們提供的津貼和金錢上的支援，真的十分少，他們根本仍然生活在貧窮線之下，過着毫無尊嚴的日子。
Indeed no improvement has been made . The amounts of allowance and monetary assistance provided to them are so insignificant that basically they are still living in poverty without dignity
主席，我就總目141分目000發言，提出削減大約相當於勞工及福利局局長的1個月薪酬預算開支。
Chairman I speak on subhead 000 under head 141 asking to cut the estimated expenditure by an amount equivalent to one - month personal emolument of the Secretary for Labour and Welfare
香港的老人家生活得不好，我想全香港都知道，國際社會也知道，簡單至日常生活，可看到很多長者衣着很差、吃得很差、撿拾紙皮，這些是我們日常生活也可以看得到的。
Not only Hong Kong but also the international community I think are aware of the fact that life is not easy for the elderly people in Hong Kong . In everyday life we can simply see many of them not properly dressed and fed . We can also see in our daily life that many elderly people have to scavenge cardboard for a living
我們姑且不談金錢上的支援，事實上，安老是一項任重道遠、非常認真的責任。
Elderly services are indeed a heavy and serious responsibility . Let us leave monetary assistance aside first
政府說會改善投放的資源，但說來說去，只是向每1,000名長者提供14個名額，以提供家居照顧。
The Government has been paying lip service to the idea of ageing in place . While it has said time and again that more resources would be allocated to community care services after all only 14 places will be provided for every 1 000 elderly people . Resources allocated to this service area are negligible with the number of social workers serving the elderly across the territory being kept at 60 teams for many years
我們投放在這方面的資源少之又少，一直維持60隊社工照顧所有這麼多名長者，而政府向他們提供的資金也很少，結果這些社區組織在緊絀的資源下，只能做到隔天送飯，又或義工/員工周末放假便不派飯，所以長者獲送飯後可能要省着吃，又或等星期六、星期日"明哥"及其他慈善組織送飯。
Funding provided to these community organizations are so limited that in the face of the resource constraint they can only deliver meals to the elderly every other day or no meal delivery service will be provided on weekends and public holidays when the volunteers andor staff are off duty . As a result those elderly people relying on meal delivery service will have to scrimp on food or wait for the meal delivery service provided by Brother Ming and other charities on Saturdays and Sundays . When we call for enhancement of residential services the Government says that there are community care services to facilitate ageing in place
最近也有很多雜誌訪問，揭發老人家其實吃得很差，有些連交電費的錢也沒有，所以沒有熱水沖涼，要到樓下便利店拿熱水，過着偷偷摸摸、毫無尊嚴的日子。
Recently a number of magazine interviews have also revealed that the elderly people really eat poorly while some even cannot bath with hot water as they have no money to settle the electricity bill . These elderly have to get some hot water from the convenience stores downstairs as they sneak around and live without dignity
我想指出，在全世界已發展地區中，家居安老和院舍比例，是社區照顧佔七成，院舍佔三成，但我們的政府卻倒行逆施，一直以來院舍和家區照顧的比例都是恰恰倒轉，有七成人要毫無尊嚴地入住院舍，只有三成人可以在社區得到馬虎的照顧。
Even if the elderly people can receive the care services such services are provided in a slack and perfunctory manner depriving them of dignity . I would like to point out that in developed regions worldwide the ratio of community care services to residential care services is 70 % to 30 % . Perversely it is a reverse of such a ratio in Hong Kong with 70 % of the elderly living in RCHEs without dignity and 30 % of them residing in their homes to receive perfunctory care services
在20年間，我們的《安老院條例》也是一式一樣，只有相當寬鬆的規定，長者入住院舍，就好像住進人間地獄般，院舍的人手比例完全不足，監察亦不足，令虐老事件一次又一次發生，然後政府才會馬虎地關注一下，結果也只是隨便說一句會提升質素，說稍後有很多院舍也會變成甲一水平。
To the elderly residents living in RCHEs is like falling into a hell on the earth . Incidents of abuse in institution for the elderly have occurred one after another . Only after repeated cases of abuse that the Government has come out to express a superficial concern and respond casually that the service quality of RCHEs would be enhanced saying that a lot of them will reach the level of EA1 homes in due course
每個人也看到，現今長者不 論在院舍、在社區或在資金上，是如何被政府所苛待的，我們看不到社會有希望，不單長者沒有希望，因此所造成的沉重供養壓力，也使現時的中年人、年青人看不到希望。
We do not see any hope in society . Not only do the elderly feel hopeless . In the face of the pressure from maintaining their parents the middle - aged and the young people do not see any hope either
我們不依據這些主觀的觀察，而只看看過去一些有根有據的統計數字，也會發覺我們對長者的照顧，其實真的很差。
Even if we leave aside these subjective observations and simply look into some valid statistics we can still notice how poorly we are treating the elderly in Hong Kong
主席，我發言支持梁國雄議員的說法，並反對李慧琼議員的議案。
Chairman I speak in support of the remarks made by Mr LEUNG Kwok - hung and oppose Ms Starry LEEs motion
我提出兩個原因：第一個原因是，我抗議你縮短我們就財政預算案進行辯論的時間，令我們沒有足夠時間發言。
I have two reasons . Firstly I protest against your decision to shorten the duration of our debate on the Budget so that we do not have enough time to speak
"麪包"的手語動作是先壓下來，然後彈開，而"香港"的"香"字卻是直接彈開。
For the word bread the hand gesture is hand down and then fingers open but for the word Hong of Hong Kong the fingers spread open right away
但是，除了這些修正案以外，我也對各項政府事務很有意見及很不滿意，很希望藉此機會提出我對這個社會的想象和對香港的願景。
However apart from these amendments I also have strong views of and I am highly dissatisfied with various government services . Hence I wish to take this opportunity to talk about my envisaged community and my vision for Hong Kong
主席，今次你更加獻出新猷，要求我們只是讀出修正案編號，連內容和目的都不用讀出。
Chairman you have also introduced a new initiative this year asking Members only to read out the Amendment No . but not the contents or objective thereof
一直沒有聆聽議員辯論的公眾人士，連這項修正案所為何事都會不清楚。我覺得這事不值得認同。
In that case members of the public who have not been listening to our debate may not know the objective of an amendment so I do not think this initiative merits support
以香港菁英會為例，青年事務委員會主席劉鳴煒及委員霍啟剛都是香港菁英會的成員，撥款全是自我審批的，而榮譽顧問更竟然是劉江華。
Take the YElites Association as an example . Both CoY Chairman LAU Ming - wai and CoY member Kenneth FOK are members of YElites Association and funding is granted on a self - approval basis . Worse still the Honorary Adviser of YElites Association is LAU Kong - wah
我不明白為何不在本地招募而要到外國招募，而招募期間的一切支出，包括機票、住宿及場地等費用皆獲得資助，最高上限是5萬元。
I do not understand why recruitment is conducted abroad but not in Hong Kong . All expenditures incurred during recruitment including air tickets accommodation and venues are covered by the subsidy subject to a ceiling of 50,000
我們以為是撥款予青年人實習，但其實是變相資助中聯辦進行統戰工作，暗渡陳倉，試問該當何罪？
While the funding is supposedly used to promote youth internship the money has in fact been used to finance united front work . What kind of wrongdoing is this?
