主席，《條例草案》的相關修訂實質上反映了功能界別在香港現行憲制中的地位和作用，亦是社會各界包括我和工程業界人士均非常關注的議題。
President the relevant amendments in the Bill have essentially reflected the status and functions of FCs in the existing constitutional system of Hong Kong which are also issues of considerable concern to various sectors of the community including members of the engineering sector and me
平心而論，功能界別對香港的經濟發展和社會穩定有非常重要的作用。
To give the matter its fair deal FCs are vitally important to the economic development and social stability of Hong Kong
但很可惜，部分社會人士包括本會的非建制派議員往往誤導公眾，並且肆意矮化功能界別議員，認為他們由小圈子選舉產生及只會照顧工商界利益等。
But regrettably some in the community including non - establishment Members of this Council tend to mislead the public and malevolently belittle FC Members opining that they returned by small - circle elections will only care for the interests of the industrial and commercial sectors and so on
這對相關議員及其代表的選民顯然並不公平，亦會不恰當地影響一般市民對香港相關法例及《條例草案》的理解。
Such remarks are obviously unfair to the Members concerned and their respective constituencies and will improperly affect how the general public perceive the relevant legislation of Hong Kong and the Bill
以我所服務的工程界為例，任何人士只要是根據《工程師註冊條例》註冊的專業工程師或有權在香港工程師學會大會上表決的會員，便可以申請登記成為該功能界別的選民。
Take for instance the engineering sector in which I serve . Any person who is a professional engineer registered under the Engineers Registration Ordinance or is a member of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers with a voting right in the Institutions general meeting can apply to register as an elector in that FC
該等個人選民必須擁有法定註冊的專業資格，除了受聘於本港各大中小企業的工程師外，還包括在特區政府各部門內成為專業職系公務員的工程專業人士。
Those individual electors must possess statutory registered professional qualifications . In addition to engineers employed by large medium or small enterprises in Hong Kong they also include engineering professionals among professional grade civil servants in various government departments of the SAR Government
他們的服務對象是全港市民，在社會上的作用、貢獻和地位無可置疑，任何隨意貶低甚至抹煞功能界別的主張也不可取。
Their service targets are all Hong Kong people . Their functions contribution and importance to society are unquestionable . Any views that arbitrarily play down or even discredit FCs are undesirable
主席，任何功能界別的具體構成固然應該維持嚴謹，但卻並不表示一成不變。
President while the specific composition of any FC should surely remain stringent it is not necessarily rigid
《條例草案》的相關修訂內容正好說明按照現有機制，在維持原有功能界別的劃分不變的前提下可以適時作出一些技術修訂。
The relevant amendments in the Bill have precisely illustrated that under the existing mechanism some timely technical amendments can be made on the premise of maintaining the original delineation of the FCs
立法會功能界別的選民基礎是根據《立法會條例》而定，而按既定做法，政府當局在每次立法會換屆選舉前均會檢視功能界別選民基礎的劃分並諮詢相關政策局和部門，同時會考慮自上一輪檢討以來從個別組織或人士所收到的要求。
The electorate of FCs in the Legislative Council is provided for under the Legislative Council Ordinance Cap . 542 and following the established practice before each Legislative Council General Election the Administration will conduct a review of the delineation of the electorate of FCs in consultation with the relevant bureaux and departments while giving consideration to requests received from individual bodies or persons since the last review
《條例草案》第3至12條正正旨在更新某些立法會功能界別及選舉委員會高等教育界界別分組的組成人士的名單。
Clauses 3 to 12 of the Bill precisely seek to update the lists of persons comprising certain FCs of the Legislative Council and the higher education subsector of the Election Committee
我認為只要確保相關機制公開透明，並注意與相關業界保持密切溝通，現有機制是行之有效的。
I consider the existing mechanism effective as long as the Administration ensures the openness and transparency of the relevant mechanism and is mindful of maintaining close communication with the associated industries
主席，我謹此陳辭，支持通過《條例草案》。
With these remarks President I support the passage of the Bill
主席，政府今次向本會提交《2019年選舉法例條例草案》，屬於一般技術性的修訂和調整，沒有重大改動。
President the Electoral Legislation Bill 2019 the Bill introduced by the Government to the Council only involves some general technical amendments without proposing any major changes
我看過《條例草案》的內容，也是以簡化立法會選舉及便利參選人的規定為立法目的，所以我會支持《條例草案》。
I will support the Bill as I have learnt from its content that the legislative intent is to simplify the electoral provisions for the Legislative Council election and facilitate candidates
不過，在政制事務委員會和《2019年選舉法例條例草案》委員會討論時，很多議員關注功能界別合資格選民的登記情況。
However during the discussions of the Panel on Constitutional Affairs and the Bills Committee on Electoral Legislation Bill 2019 the issue of voter registration for functional constituencies FCs had aroused much concern among Members
就這一點，我懇請政制及內地事務局認真研究，看看有甚麼地方可以做得更好。
I therefore implore the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau to study this issue seriously and improve the relevant arrangements
主席，大家也知道，立法會設立功能界別的原意是確保各行各業的聲音可以得到反映，也能夠讓政府在制訂政策時，得到不同的意見。
President as we all know the original intent of establishing FCs in the Legislative Council was to ensure that different industries could voice their views for the consideration of the Government in formulating policies
所以，自回歸以來，立法會有30個議席由功能界別的選民選出，代表香港不同行業、專業界別。
Therefore 30 seats in the Legislative Council have been returned from FCs since the reunification to represent different industries and professional sectors
除了專業界別的議員要與業界充分溝通之外，政府當局也應該在各項議題和法例上，盡力全面接觸和諮詢業界所有持份者，讓所有意見均能充分表達。
Yet not only should Members representing these industries and professional sectors maintain good communication with the trade the authorities should also do their best to liaise with all stakeholders in the trade and consult them about different issues and legislations so as to make sure that all their views are fully reflected
要全面地聽意見、接觸業界時，首先要知道有多少持份者。
In order to listen to views of stakeholders and communicate with them the authorities should first know how many stakeholders are involved
在法案委員會審議《條例草案》期間，不少同事均十分關注個別界別的選民登記情況。
During the scrutiny of the Bill by the Bills Committee many Honourable colleagues were gravely concerned about voter registration for individual constituencies
例如，馬逢國議員的體育、演藝、文化及出版界，屬於出版界的香港印刷業商會因為是《保險業條例》下的承保人組織，所 以自動登記為保險界功能界別的選民，但該公司的業務以印刷出版為主。
Taking the Sports Performing Arts Culture and Publication FC represented by Mr MA Fung - kwok as an example the Hong Kong Printers Association HKPA which belongs to the publication sector was automatically registered as an elector of the Insurance FC owing to its capacity as an association of underwriters under the Insurance Ordinance . Yet HKPA mainly engages in the publication business
我想請教局長，政府當局以該公司哪個身份諮詢該公司或與其溝通呢？
I would like to ask the Secretary What is the capacity of HKPA when the Government consults or communicates with it?
主席，我認為局方要在"公平、嚴謹"的原則與選舉權和被選權之間取得平衡，要盡力保障所有合資格選民的選舉權利。
President with the principles of fairness and stringency on the one hand and the right to vote and the right to stand for election on the other I think the authorities should strike a balance to protect the voting rights of eligible electors as far as possible
政府現時就團體或個人的功能界別選民申請欠缺清晰的指引。
The current guidelines on the application for voter registration are unclear for individual bodiespersons
例如，"該團體應在有關界別具代表性，而且積極支持該界別的發展"，當中怎樣算是擁有"代表性"？
For example there is a guideline requiring that [a body] should be a representative one and is active in supporting the development of the sector concerned . But what does it mean by representative?
至於"積極支持該界別的發展"，如果團體本身只專注於自己的業務，又是否屬於支持整個界別的發展？
As for the requirement of [being] active in supporting the development of the sector concerned will a body focusing only on its own business development be regarded as supporting the development of the sector concerned?
主席，一旦當局不批准該界別的選民登記，申請人會否知道為何被拒諸門外？
President if an application for FC voter registration is rejected will the applicant be informed of the reasons for rejection? . Was it because the status of the applicant is irrelevant to the FC concerned?
政府當局應採取宜寬不宜緊的原則，讓個別界別的選民聲音得到重視。
It is better for the authorities to be loose than rigid so that the views of electors in individual FCs will be taken seriously
坦白說，香港的選舉被譽為文明、先進的選舉，但每次選舉總有很多不同錯漏情況，影響香港市民，令不同黨派的議員對於政府處理選舉的工作產生質疑。
Despite the fact that elections in Hong Kong are renowned for being civilized and modern lots of mistakes had actually been found in each of the past elections thereby affecting members of the public and arousing the concerns of Members of different political affiliations about the Governments efforts in conducting elections
我經常對自己說，"沒有最好，只有更好"。
I often tell myself that what is good can always be better
主席，這也是我們對於政府部門處理每次選舉的態度，包括選舉事務處、選舉管理委員會 及其他部門。
President this is also our hope for government departments including the Registration and Electoral Office and the Electoral Affairs Commission in each election
我們希望提出以下幾點，以提醒局長或相關政府官員，如何秉持我剛才所說"沒有最好，只有更好"的信念。
I hope the following points will remind the Secretary and relevant officials how to uphold the aforesaid belief of what is good can always be better
第一點是取選票的程序。
My first point concerns the procedure for issuing ballot papers
很多同事也提到，現在每名選民到達投票站後，都需要出示身份證來取選票。
As mentioned by many Honourable colleagues an elector is required to present his identity card at the polling station in order to obtain a ballot paper
主席，你也曾投過票，你也知道查核身份證的程序還一如當年，即是由職員拿着一本大簿劃、劃、劃，你若叫"張三"便劃掉"張三"，你若是"李四"便劃"李四"。
President as you had voted before you should know the procedure for verifying the identity of electors which has remained unchanged for years . The staff at the polling station will check against a large register and cross out the names of the electors accordingly . If your name is Tom the name Tom will be crossed out
老實說，如果市民信任政府，哪怕劃"張三"或"李四"，我都會相信。
If your name is Dick the name Dick will be crossed out . Frankly speaking if the public have trust in the Government they will not have doubts about the names being crossed out
但今次或過往選舉中，也有很多市民批評，"張三"有出現，卻劃了"李四"；"李四"沒出現，卻劃了"阿五"或"阿六"。
However in the latest or past elections many people criticized that when Tom showed up the name Dick was crossed out; and when Dick did not show up the name Harry was crossed out
是為了保障市民私隱。
The answer given was to protect personal privacy
我希望局長在修訂中提出一套更理想的做法。
I hope the Secretary will propose a better practice in the legislative amendment exercise
第二點有關票站職員。
The second point is about polling station staff
主席，我相信你很明白，票站職員是由"雜牌軍"組成的。
President I believe you should know that a ragtag team was formed to work in a polling station
投票日早上很熱鬧，很多人"和你排"，也有很多人重複排隊。
For example early in the morning on the polling day polling stations were bustling with people owing to the queue with you movement and some people had queued up repeatedly
剛才"張三李四"的情況，他們根本無法看到。
They could never see the Tom Dick and Harry problem just said
老實說，香港人必定支持特區政府舉辦的每一場選舉，這也標誌着香港人越來越珍惜自己的權利。
Hong Kong people always support the elections held by the SAR Government . Their strong support also indicates that Hong Kong people cherish their rights more than before
此外，我想對局長說說我自己的親身經歷。
In addition I would like to share with the Secretary my personal experience
竟有些票站職員在投票人取選票後，提醒投票人該投哪一個號碼。
To my surprise some polling staff had after issuing the ballot papers reminded electors which candidate to vote for
這是千真萬確的事，我已即時投訴。
This incident was absolutely true and I lodged a complaint immediately
局長，你如何透過培訓，確保選舉公平和公正呢？
Secretary how would you through training ensure that an election is conducted in a fair and just manner?
我覺得局方做事經常都"啞子食黃蓮，有苦自己知"，好像受盡委屈的家嫂般。
I find that the Bureau often acts like a mute victim who is unable to complain or a woman who feels grievously wronged by her mother - in - law
你們今次略有改善，有作出澄清，不過速度卻非常慢。
This time the Bureau had improved slightly as it had finally made clarifications though its response was extremely slow
希望局長能夠記着這句話："多快醒，創造好環境"。
I urge the Secretary to remember this saying Build a better environment with greater concern faster response and smarter services
局長，當銀行都有數鈔機了，你們卻落後到仍然用人手點票。
Secretary banks are using banknote counters these days . How come you are so backward and count the votes manually?
局長應明白，這是每位市民的公民權利。
The Secretary should be aware of this right
主席，我剛才所說種種，均關乎《條例草案》中大家所關心的課題。
President all the aforesaid problems are issues of public concern in respect of the Bill
希望政府在每次選舉時，不要抱着"過了海便是神仙"的心態，不要把問題掃進地毯底，便不予正視。
After an election is held the Government should not adopt the attitude that it would not be under check and could simply sweep all the problems under the carpet
說一句真心話，無論選舉是贏是輸，我們也會尊重選舉結果，接受市民所選。
To be honest whether we win or lose in the election we will accept the results and the choice of the people
不過，我們也要確保選舉是公平、公正和公開。
However the election must be fair just and open
請局長回去後深思。
I urge the Secretary to ponder on my words after the meeting
《條例草案》建議就2020年立法會換屆選舉及其他公共選舉作出技術性修訂。
President I rise to speak in support of the Electoral Legislation Bill 2019 the Bill which proposes to introduce technical amendments for the 2020 Legislative Council General Election and other public elections
雖然這些修訂只屬"小修小補"，但有利確保選舉公平公正並順利地舉行，部分修訂還相當"貼地"，利便候選人進行選舉申報等工作，所以我支持《條例草案》。
Whilst these amendments amount to only small patch - ups they are conducive to ensuring that the elections are smoothly conducted in a fair and just manner . Some of the amendments are quite down - to - earth and they will facilitate candidates in handling such tasks as electoral declaration so I support the Bill
今次《條例草案》建議的主要修訂，包括在現行法例的相關條文中，更新自上次更新工作後改名的團體；刪除一些已停止運作的團體；以及按相關功能界別現時的情況新增選民。
The major amendments proposed in this Bill include to update the names of corporates specified under relevant sections of the existing legislation that have had their names changed since the last updating exercise; to remove some corporates which have ceased operation; and to add new electors in the light of the prevailing situation of the FCs concerned
這些修訂雖然看來是"小修小補"、微不足道，但卻是選舉所必需的。
These amendments are necessary for the elections although it appears that they amount to only small patch - ups and are rather trivial
畢竟，不同功能界別有不同選民基礎，他們涵蓋不同行業領域，擁有不同專業資格。
After all different FCs have different electorates covering different sectors and fields and with different professional qualifications
當局在選舉前檢視功能界別選民資格，刪除一些不合資格的選民，新增合資格的選民，可確保選舉公平公正。
The authorities review of the eligibility of electors in respect of FCs as well as the removal of some ineligible electors and the addition of eligible electors prior to the elections can ensure that the elections will be conducted in a fair and just manner
就備受關注的功能界別選民基礎問題，《條例草案》並沒有作出修訂建議。
The Bill has not proposed any amendment in regard to the electorate of FCs which is an issue of widespread concern
不過，我留意到在相關法案委員會會議上，泛民議員一如既往，聚焦討論擴大功能界別選民基礎的問題。
Nevertheless I noticed that at the meetings of the relevant Bills Committee Members of the pan - democratic camp as always focused on discussing the issue of expanding the electorate of FCs
今天早上，區諾軒議員亦批評，功能界別選舉"極黑暗"、"極黑箱"。
This morning Mr AU Nok - hin also criticized the FC elections as extremely dark utter black - box operations
對此，我想說，我不認同泛民議員的意見。
In this regard I would like to say that I do not approve of such views held by the pan - democratic Members
我認為，功能界別現行制度已運作一段時間，並無不妥；其選民在相關界別亦有足夠代表性。
I believe that there is nothing wrong with the existing system of FCs which has operating for a period of time and the electors are also sufficiently representative in their relevant constituencies
政府若要擴大選民基礎，必須先經過充分諮詢，在社會上取得足夠民意支持，並與各功能界別達成一致共識之下，才能改變功能界別的選民基礎。
If the Government intends to expand the electorate it must conduct thorough consultations secure sufficient public support in society and reach a consensus with various FCs before it can make changes to the electorate of FCs
未經深思熟慮便貿然擴大選民基礎只會引起無謂的爭議，甚至適得其反。
Any hasty expansion of the electorate without careful consideration will only serve to stir up unnecessary disputes or even bring forth exactly opposite effects
更何況，大家都知道2014年政改諮詢引發極大爭議，最終演變成違法佔領運動，引起社會動盪。
What is more we all know that the consultation on political reform in 2014 had induced considerable controversies which eventually developed into the illegal occupation movement leading to social unrest
如今，反修例風波尚未平息，當務之急應是止暴制亂，讓社會回復平靜。
Now that the disturbances arising from the opposition to the proposed legislative amendments to FOO have not yet subsided the first and foremost task is to stop violence and curb disorder in order to restore calm in society
如果此時貿然重啟政改，未經任何討論就盲目擴大功能界別的選民基礎，最終恐怕只會令香港亂上加亂，進一步將香港推向深淵。
If the political reform is hastily reactivated now to blindly expand the electorate of FCs without going through any discussions I am afraid it will only create more chaos in Hong Kong and further push Hong Kong into an abyss in the end
因此，對於《條例草案》沒有就功能界別選民基礎作出任何修訂建議，我沒有任何異議。
Therefore I have no objection to the Bill making no amendments in relation to the electorate of FCs
至於未來應否擴大功能界別的選民基礎，我和我所屬的金融服務界均持開放態度。
As regards whether the electorate of FCs should be expanded in the future I and the Financial Services Constituency to which I belong both hold an open attitude towards it
在2014年至2015年的政改諮詢期間，我們業界曾多次開會討論。
During the consultation on political reform conducted from 2014 to 2015 we in the sector held a number of meetings to discuss the issue
我們支持循序漸進擴大功能界別的選民基礎，尤其因為資產管理公司近年發展迅速，促進金融業的蓬勃發展，我們認為當局應積極考慮是否將這些公司納入金融服務界的選民範圍，進一步擴大界別的選民基礎。
We support the gradual and progressive expansion of the electorate of FCs . In particular the rapid development of asset management companies in recent years has promoted the financial industry to flourish and we are of the opinion that the authorities should consider proactively whether these companies should be included as electors of the Financial Services Constituency to further expand its electorate
主席，一直以來，我最不滿泛民議員總是故意抹黑功能界別，將功能界別的選舉稱為"小圈子"選舉，還故意貶低功能界別議員的民意代表性。
President I have all along been most dissatisfied with the pan - democratic Members always discrediting FCs deliberately referring to FC elections as small - circle elections and they also play down on purpose the popular representativeness of Members returned by FCs
我想在此強調，功能界別的議員並非"從天而降"，而是由所屬界別的合資格選民投票產生，除了有廣泛代表性外，還具備所屬界別的專業資格。
I must emphasize here that the Members returned by FCs do not come out of the blue but are elected by eligible electors in their respective constituencies . In addition to being broadly representative they also possess the professional qualifications in their respective sectors
因此，功能界別議員的專業性和民意代表性是不容貶低的。
Therefore the professionalism and representativeness of those Members returned by FCs should never be downplayed
就第372b條的修訂則旨在放寬候選人提供選舉開支收據的要求，建議在所有的公眾選舉中，遞交發票及收據的門檻由100元提高至500元。
The amendments to section 372b seek to relax the requirements for the submission of receipts of election expenses by candidates . It is proposed that the threshold for the submission of invoices and receipts be increased from 100 to 500 in all public elections
雖然修訂建議涉及的金額不多，但我認為這些建議均很"貼地"。
Whilst the proposed amendments do not involve a large amount of money I regard these proposals as most down - to - earth
眾所周知，申報選舉開支的工作十分繁瑣，尤其是一些金額細小的發票，並非所有店鋪均能提供，亦容易遺失。
As we all know the declaration of election expenses is a very tedious task especially for invoices involving a small amount which may not be provided by all shops and it is also easy to lose them
這項修訂正好免卻候選人這方面的煩惱，大大利便他們申報選舉開支，是非常必要的修訂。
This amendment can exactly spare candidates of the troubles in this aspect and greatly facilitate their declaration of election expenses rendering it a most essential amendment
因此，我們希望在《條例草案》獲得通過後，當局能在利便候選人工作和防止選舉舞弊之間取得平衡。
Therefore we hope that the authorities can upon passage of the Bill strike a balance between facilitating candidates work and preventing corrupt conduct in elections
主席，我雖然支持《條例草案》，但認為《條例草案》有避難就易之嫌。
President while I support the Bill I think the Bill smacks of having elected the expedient approach
大家也知道，上屆立法會選舉和其後的立法會補選曾出現一些備受關注和爭議的問題，例如刻意違反《基本法》、隱晦支持港獨的人有資格參選；有候選人在選舉日前夕策略性宣布棄選，此等意圖影響選舉結果的行為是否有違選舉法例。
As we all know there were some issues of great concern and controversies in the previous Legislative Council election and the subsequent Legislative Council by - election such as the deliberate violation of the Basic Law those people who implicitly support Hong Kong independence being eligible to run in the elections; some candidates strategically announced their withdrawal of candidature on the day before the polling day . There have been misgivings about whether such acts intended to affect the outcome of elections are in breach of the electoral laws
又例如在上屆立法會選舉， 曾有選民上載短片，聲稱自己嘗試以身份證副本證明身份，結果成功投票。
Another example is that in the previous Legislative Council Election some voters uploaded video clips in which they claimed that they had attempted to prove their identity with a copy of their identity card and successfully cast votes
對於上述種種問題，政府當局在《條例草案》中並沒有作出任何回應。
To the various aforesaid problems the Administration has not given any response in the Bill
我認為這種迴避態度極不理想，因為這些都是重要的原則性問題，當局應以更清晰的條文作出規定，才能釋除疑慮，避免爭議，有助選舉順利進行。
I consider such an evasive attitude extremely unsatisfactory since all of them are important issues of principle . The authorities should prescribe requirements with more lucid provisions so as to dispel doubts and pre - empt disputes which is conducive to the smooth conduct of elections
主席，上屆立法會選舉的問題尚且沒有得到清晰的回應和改善，剛過去區議會選舉出現的種種不公就更不用說。
President the problems arisen from the previous Legislative Council Election have yet to be accorded clear responses and improvement let alone all the instances of injustice witnessed in the District Council Election held recently
正如很多議員同事指出，剛過去的區議會選舉出現很多不合理的怪現象，例如為數不少的長者長時間排隊輪候投票，票站人員卻沒有隨機應變，作出適當安排，讓長者優先投票或分流處理。
As many Honourable colleagues have pointed out there have been a lot of unreasonable and peculiar phenomena during the District Council Election held recently . For instance quite a lot of elderly people had to wait in line for a long time to cast votes but the polling staff did not make appropriate arrangements in the light of the circumstances and give priority to the elderly people to cast votes or adopt streaming arrangements
又例如部分候選人在宣布參選後即受到暴力打壓，完全無法展開選舉工程，甚至在投票日拉票也受到滋擾。
Another example is that some candidates were subjected to violent oppression immediately after they had announced their candidature such that they were virtually unable to carry out their electioneering activities and were even harassed when canvassing votes on the polling day . These acts have apparently undermined the fairness of the election
這些行為明顯破壞選舉公平，我希望政府不要再視而不見，而應高度重視這些問題；日後檢視選舉工作時，不要如《條例草案》般只作一些"小修小補"的修訂，而應通盤檢討，大刀闊斧地作出改善，避免不公平的事情再次在選舉中出現。
I hope that the Government will cease to turn a blind eye to all this and it should attach great importance to these issues . When reviewing its work in respect of elections in future it should not merely introduce amendments which amount to only small patch - ups just like those in the Bill . Rather it should conduct a comprehensive review to make improvement in a bold and resolute manner so as to prevent the recurrence of instances of injustice in elections
局長，今天是感恩節，亦是美國總統特朗普簽署《香港人權與民主法案》及《香港保護法》的日子，香港人想在此說聲"感謝！
Secretary today is Thanksgiving Day and it also marks the signing of the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act and the Protect Hong Kong Act by President TRUMP of the United States . The people of Hong Kong would like to express their gratitude
為免把話題扯遠，我會先集中在某些細項上闡述，之後我會再談談，為何我今天開場白的發言重點是"感謝"。
In order not to stray from the subject I will begin my speech by focusing on some details before explaining why I have placed an emphasis on gratitude in my opening remarks
其實，功能界別的存廢，可能是香港接下來的5年、10年，甚至20年要面對的所謂"政治風眼"的其中一環。
In fact the retention or otherwise of FC may become part of the so - called political turmoil that Hong Kong will be facing in the next 5 10 or even 20 years
邵家輝議員剛才提到"劏房"、迷你倉，他更提到"家電三廢"等，而我只是剛開始發言，你沒理由打斷我的節奏吧？
Just now Mr SHIU Ka - fai mentioned subdivided units and mini - storages and he also talked about household appliances and the three types of industrial wastes and I have just begun my speech . There is no reason for you to disturb my flow right?
這次區議會選舉中，建制派同事固然有怨氣，事實上我亦一樣。
There are certainly grievances among pro - establishment colleagues regarding this District Council DC Election and in fact I feel the same
我認為香港這數個月以來的動盪，沒有理由以所謂"民主派 大勝區選"而告終。
The turmoil in Hong Kong over the past few months should not stop with a landslide victory of the pro - democracy camp in the DC Election
但我想指出的是亦希望呼應《香港人權與民主法案》的內容選舉不應只講求公平，而公平地提名及投票的前提是"自由"。
I would like to make one point clear and this echoes the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act ie . fairness should not be the only criteria in an election and the prerequisite for fairness in nomination and voting is freedom
