至於是否如修正案所建議般把一個範疇獨立成局，開設交通運輸局，自由黨則持開放態度。
As to whether a Traffic and Transport Bureau should be created as a separate bureau for one policy area as proposed in the amendment the Liberal Party remains open - minded
除拆局外，自由黨希望政府考慮成立類似香港機場管理局的海事及港口管理局。
In addition to splitting the Bureau the Liberal Party hopes that the Government considers setting up a Marine and Port Authority similar to the Airport Authority Hong Kong
全球九成的貨物均是經海路運輸，因此，海運業是兵家必爭之地，但香港近年的貨運量排名節節下跌，現時全球排名第九位。
Since 90 % of the goods in the world are transported by sea the maritime industry is characterized by intense competition but Hong Kongs ranking in terms of cargo throughput has fallen successively in recent years and now stands at the ninth position worldwide
近日有很多批評說我們苟延殘喘，行政長官對這個形容詞的回應是"應該要處理"，特別是粵港澳大灣區的規劃都是支持香港成為航運中心的，如果貨運業一直弱化下去，對香港來說並非好事。
In recent days there have been many criticisms that we are at our last gasp . The Chief Executives response to this description is that we should deal with it . Particularly given that the planning of the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area supports Hong Kong in becoming a maritime centre any further weakening of the freight transport industry is not a good thing for Hong Kong
雖然近年內地港口發展蓬勃，但香港的港口貨櫃吞吐量仍然維持在1,800萬個標準箱，可見香港港口仍然有一定的優勢，包括頻密且覆蓋廣泛的班輪服務，以及碼頭高效率的貨物處理工作；香港港口更有"船期追趕港口"之稱，因為我們的理貨效率高，能追回於其他港口延誤而損失的時間。
Despite the booming development of Mainland ports in recent years the container throughput of the port of Hong Kong remains at 18 million twenty - foot equivalent units showing that the port of Hong Kong still has certain advantages including frequent and comprehensive liner services as well as efficient cargo handling operations at terminals . The port of Hong Kong is even known as a catch - up port because our high efficiency in cargo handling helps make up the time lost due to delays in other ports
雖然海運及港口業的經濟貢獻只佔本地生產總值的1.1%，但其所支持的本港四大經濟支柱之一的貿易及物流業，則佔本地生產總值及總就業人數大概20%。
Although the economic contribution of the maritime and port industry only accounts for 1.1 % of our gross domestic product GDP the trading and logistics industry it supports as one of the four key economic pillars of Hong Kong accounts for about 20 % of our GDP and total employment
為鞏固和提升香港作為國際海運中心的地位，政府在參考顧問的建議後，在2016年成立了香港海運港口局，但顧問所建議的是一個擁有執行權力的法定機構，而不是一個諮詢組織。
In order to consolidate and enhance Hong Kongs status as an international maritime centre the Government established the Hong Kong Maritime and Port Board in 2016 based on consultancy advice but what the consultant recommended was a statutory body with executive powers rather than an advisory body
最後我想一提的是，政府的施政與市民的期望經常出現反差，明明是好的施政，但結果往往事與願違，引來怨聲載道。
The last point I would like to make is that there is often a contrast between the Governments policy implementation and the publics expectations . The supposedly good policies have often backfired leading to an avalanche of grievances
歸根究底，正是政府官員在推行政策前沒有清楚了解民情，甚至根本不了解有關行業的運作，以致好事變壞事。
When all is said and done it is the government officials failure to understand public sentiment before policy implementation or even complete ignorance about the operation of the industries concerned that has turned good things into bad things
因此，在問責制下，管治人才固然重要，但必須確保相關官員在推動任何政府政策前，能充分掌握民情，並先與相關人士或團體進行充分溝通，好讓政策能夠順利推行。
Therefore while talent for governance is undoubtedly important under the accountability system it is essential to ensure that the officials concerned have a good grasp of public sentiment and fully communicate with the relevant individuals or organizations before introducing any government policy so that the policy can be implemented smoothly
主席，隨着疫情有所緩和，已接種疫苗的市民數目不斷增加，政府亦陸續允許被指令停業的表列處所復業，近日市道稍有起色，餐飲及零售消費有所增長。
President while the epidemic is easing the number of people who have received vaccination keeps increasing and the Government gradually allows scheduled premises which have been ordered to suspend operation to resume business . Recently the market has shown some signs of improvement with an increase in spending on food and beverage as well as retail
不過，有部分行業仍然未能夠受惠於疫情的緩和，我們形容這些行業為特困行業，涉及的行業已在我的修正案中列出。
However some industries are still unable to benefit from the mitigation of the epidemic . We describe these industries as hard - hit industries . The industries involved have been set out in my amendment
姚思榮議員剛才已就旅遊及相關行業的情況作出說明，我以下會集中談論跨境客運業，而稍後張宇人議員會就其他飲食及娛樂業說明。
Just now Mr YIU Si - wing already expounded on the situation of tourism and related industries . I will now focus on the cross - boundary passenger service sector and Mr Tommy CHEUNG will later speak on the catering and entertainment industries
自2019年年中的"黑暴"事件發生後，旅客人數持續下跌，跨境運輸業大受影響。
Since the occurrence of black - clad violence in mid - 2019 the number of visitor arrivals has continuously dropped greatly affecting the cross - boundary transport industry
隨後，因2019冠狀病毒病爆發，為應付疫情，政府自去年2月起關閉大部分口岸，跨境客運渡輪及跨境直通巴士服務基本上全面停止，只餘下行走兩個未關閉的陸路口岸的穿梭跨境巴士維持非常有限度的服務。
Subsequently due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 the Government has closed most of the control points to cope with the epidemic since February last year . Cross - boundary passenger ferry and coach services have basically ceased completely . Only very limited services are maintained by the remaining cross - boundary shuttle buses travelling through the two land boundary control points which are still open
根據政府的資料，今年首季，這類跨境巴士的行車架次約為4,000次，乘客量只有28,000人，平均1輛車只載7人，完全是開一輛蝕一輛。
According to the Governments information in the first quarter of this year the number of trips made by these cross - boundary coaches was about 4 000 and the number of passenger trips was only 28 000 . On the average each vehicle carried only seven passengers . Every time a coach provided service it would definitely incur a loss
由於跨境巴士服務近乎停擺，葵涌貨櫃碼頭一個臨時停車場便泊滿這些閒置的旅遊巴，被業界稱之為"巴士墳場"，當中不乏跨境巴士。
Since the cross - boundary coach service has almost come to a standstill a temporary car park at the Kwai Chung Container Terminals is full of these idle coaches which are parked there . The industry calls it the cemetery of coaches many of which are cross - boundary coaches
過去17個月，跨境客運業可謂極度艱苦經營，能夠捱到今天仍未倒閉的，絕對是"有苦自己知，淚向心中流"。
It can be said that over the past 17 months the cross - boundary passenger service sector has endured extreme hardship in operation . Those who have survived to this day have really kept all the miseries to themselves and shed tears in their hearts
須知道，跨境客運服務需要符合兩地要求，無論是跨境巴士或跨境渡輪，不論其牌照或司機和船長的資格，均需要滿足兩地要求，而跨境司機及跨境車輛更是採取捆綁式管理，凡更換司機便必須重新辦理手續，手續需時不在話下，市場上亦缺乏合資格的跨境司機。
It is important to note that cross - boundary passenger services have to meet the requirements in both places . Both cross - boundary coaches and cross - boundary ferries regardless of their licences and qualifications of their drivers and captains have to satisfy the requirements in both places . Furthermore cross - boundary drivers and cross - boundary vehicles are managed in a bundled manner
因此，政府有必要幫助這些營辦商繼續生存，否則一旦口岸開通，市場將難提供足夠的跨境客運服務。
It is therefore imperative for the Government to help these operators to survive . Otherwise it will be difficult for the market to provide sufficient cross - boundary passenger services once cross - border travel resumes
既然政府日前宣布為支援展覽業而延長會議展覽業資助計劃6個月至明年6月底，我希望政府同時亦向跨境客運服務業及其他特困行業提供進一步資助，以紓緩該等行業面對營運資金短缺的問題。
Now that the Government has announced the extension of the Convention and Exhibition Industry Subsidy Scheme for six months until the end of June next year to support the exhibition industry I hope that the Government will concurrently provide further financial assistance to the cross - boundary passenger service sector and other hard - hit industries so as to alleviate the shortage of working capital faced by these industries
行政長官上月出席粵港合作聯席會議時表示，鑒於香港本地疫情已明顯受控，她正爭取廣東省的支持，有序及有限地逐步放寬往內地的檢疫要求，而澳門政府日前亦表明，香港如果連續28天零確診，便可有條件通關，種種信息均顯示通關在望。
When the Chief Executive attended the Hong KongGuangdong Co - operation Joint Conference last month she said that since the local epidemic had clearly been brought under control in Hong Kong she was seeking Guangdongs support for gradual relaxation of quarantine requirements in an orderly and restricted manner for entry to the Mainland . Recently the Macao Government has also indicated that if there is no confirmed case in Hong Kong for 28 consecutive days the condition will be favourable for resumption of cross - border travel . All these signs show the possibility of such resumption
可是，如果跨境客運服務業要重新復業，還需要一定資金，用作重聘所需的支援人手、加設配套設施，以及需對長期露天並閒置多時的運輸工具作全面維修保養及消毒，以確保運輸工具具備安全運作的條件。
However to resume business the cross - boundary passenger service sector will need considerable capital to re - employ the necessary supporting staff install additional ancillary facilities and carry out thorough maintenance and disinfection of conveyances which have been left idle in the open air for a long time to ensure that such conveyances are in safe working condition
既然跨境客運服務是促進香港與內地及澳門人流重要而不可或缺的一環，我希望政府考慮向業界提供我多次在議會提出的復業津貼，確保業界能夠在通關後暢順運作。
As cross - boundary passenger services are crucial and indispensable in facilitating the flow of people among Hong Kong the Mainland and Macao I hope the Government will consider providing the industry with a business resumption allowance as repeatedly proposed by me in this Council so as to ensure that the industry can operate smoothly after resumption of cross - border travel
主席，俗稱"高官問責制"的主要官員問責制，由2002年至今已經實行超過18年，踏入第十九個年頭，正值需要進行大規模檢討、甚至全面改革的時機。
President the accountability system for principal officials commonly known as the accountability system for senior officials has been in place for more than 18 years since 2002 and is now in its 19 year of operation which is an opportune time for a major review or even a comprehensive reform
因此，李慧琼議員提出"改革主要官員問責制"的議案進行辯論，正好是啟動有關改革的一個契機。
Therefore the debate of Ms Starry LEEs motion on Reforming the accountability system for principal officials is an opportunity to kick - start the reform
主要官員問責制需要改革的範疇眾多，實在難以一一涉獵。
The accountability system for principal officials needs reform in so many areas that it is indeed difficult to cover each and every one of them
因此，我主要希望探討如何優化問責官員與公務員團隊的合作這個問題。
I would therefore like to focus on how to enhance the cooperation between principal officials and the civil service team
然而，在現時的制度下，負責執行各項政策的公務員團隊與問責官員分屬不同系統；局長作為政策局的最高責任人，亦無權參與局內公務員升遷調配的安排，而問責官員團隊與局內各級公務員亦沒有明確的領導關係。
However under the current regime the civil service team who are responsible for the implementation of various policies and the accountability officials belong to different systems . Despite being the top official in charge of a bureau the Director of Bureau does not have the power to take part in deciding the promotion and deployment of civil servants within the bureau and there is no clear leadership relationship between the team of accountability officials and the civil servants at all levels within the bureau either
由於局內的高級公務員升遷調配不受局長所左右，一旦局內的高級公務員與局長在某些問題上持有不同意見，甚至雙方關係不咬弦的情況下，難免令當局推行政策措施時出現很大的阻滯。
Since the promotion and deployment of senior civil servants in the bureau is not under the Director of Bureaus control in case the senior civil servants in the bureau do not see eye to eye with the Director of Bureau on certain issues or in the event of an at - odds relationship between the two sides there will inevitably be heavy delays in the implementation of policy initiatives
有見及此，當局必須全面理順及釐清問責官員與公務員團隊的從屬關係。
In view of this it is necessary to rationalize and clarify the subordinate relationship between the accountability officials and the civil service team
主席，首先，我十分感謝李慧琼議員提出"改革主要官員問責制"的議案及麥美娟議員提出修正案，讓我們有機會重新討論及檢視一下已實施18年的主要官員問責制。
First of all President I am very grateful to Ms Starry LEE for proposing the motion entitled Reforming the accountability system for principal officials and Ms Alice MAK for proposing the amendment . This allows us the opportunity to discuss and review afresh the accountability system for principal officials which has been implemented for 18 years
我翻閱《香港2001》年報，當中有關主要官員問責制的章節指出：推行問責制的目的是要令特區政府的主要官員為其施政承擔起責任；讓特區政府的領導層理念一致，方向明確。
I have read Hong Kong 2001 in which it is pointed out in the chapter on the accountability system for principal officials The purpose of introducing an Accountability System is to enable Principal Officials of the HKSAR Government to assume responsibility for their policy portfolios to share a common agenda and to have clear directions
政府須民情在心，民意在握，與廣大市民、立法會、社會各界團體有密切的聯繫和溝通，令施政的優先次序更明確，政策更加全面協調。
We need to feel the pulse of the community understand community sentiment and strengthen liaison and communication with the Legislative Council different sectors of the community and the general public . We need to improve the prioritising of the Governments agenda as well as overall policy co - ordination
這樣，我們便可以為市民和社會提供更優質的公共服務。
By doing so we would be able to provide better services to the community
主席，香港回歸祖國已24年，主要官員問責制於2002年開始實施。
President it has been 24 years since Hong Kongs reunification with the Motherland and the accountability system for principal officials was introduced in 2002
可是，在過去的18年，政府有否認真執行主要官員問責制呢？
However has the Government ever implemented in a serious manner the accountability system for principal officials over the past 18 years?
我相信大家對此感受甚深，均認為政府在這方面未能審時度勢以與時並進，尤其是在處理政治、經濟及民生議題時，均未有考慮到全局，完全欠缺"一國"視野。
I believe that Members must feel very strongly about this and are of the view that the Government has failed to take stock of the situation in order to keep abreast of the times in this regard . In particular it has failed to take into account the overall situation when tackling political economic and livelihood issues as it is completely in lack of a one country vision
我們是否只側重於"一國兩制"中的"兩制"呢？
Are we as far as the principle of one country two systems is concerned focusing on two systems only?
"攬炒派"或別有用心的人一直強調"兩制"，他們在過去24年來，均一直只談"兩制"而不談"一國"。結果，這變成國家安全漏洞，令"攬炒派"有機可乘，搗亂議會，大搞"黑暴"，擾亂社會秩序，甚至提倡"港獨"，"攬炒"香港，情況一發不可收拾。
Over the past 24 years they talked only about two systems but not one country and this has eventually become a loophole in national security thus giving those seeking mutual destruction the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and disrupt the legislature engage in black - clad violence sabotage social order and even advocate independence of Hong Kong
其實，中央為香港落實《香港國安法》及完善選舉制度，目的在於讓香港能全面落實"一國兩制"及"愛國者治港"，為香港開展了良好的勢頭。
Their attempts to seek mutual destruction with the entire city got out of hand then . In fact the Central Authorities move to implement the National Security Law for Hong Kong and improve Hong Kongs electoral system for the purpose of enabling Hong Kong to fully implement one country two systems and patriots administering Hong Kong has given Hong Kong a good momentum
主席，非常感謝麥美娟議員就"改革主要官員問責制"議案提出修正案，其實該修正案是把我原本的議案具體化。
President I am very grateful to Ms Alice MAK for proposing an amendment to the motion on Reforming the accountability system for principal officials . In fact the amendment has added concrete substance to my original motion
對於具體化的方向，我們表示認同，包括將現時房屋、發展、運輸及環境政策範疇重組。
We agree with the direction of concretization including reorganization of the existing policy portfolios in respect of housing development transport and environment
但是，由於她的修正案提出很多非常仔細的建議，民建聯現階段還在聽取大家的意見；對於如此具體的意見，我們還在研究當中。
However as her amendment has put forward many detailed proposals the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong DAB is still listening to various views at this stage . Moreover the views touch on so many specifics that we are still studying them
所以，今次對於麥美娟議員的修正案，我們會投棄權票。
Therefore we will abstain from voting on Ms Alice MAKs amendment this time which does not mean that we do not support the direction proposed by her
這並不表示我們不支持麥美娟議員提出的方向，我亦希望藉此機會與麥議員和大家分享一下我們至今的一些看法，希望集思廣益，為探討未來如何推動改革或完善主要官員問責制再做工夫。
I would also like to take this opportunity to share some of our views to date with Ms MAK and all Members with a view to drawing on collective wisdom to further our efforts in exploring how to drive forward the reform or improvement of the accountability system for principal officials in the future
房屋與運輸分開由不同政策局來處理，我相信這是社會的共識。
I believe it is the consensus of the community that housing and transport should be dealt with separately by different Policy Bureaux
公道的說，我記得前行政長官梁振英先生上任的時候，也很希望改革這方面的政府架構，但大家都知道，當時議會"拉布"，他未能改革便已經要上任。
To put it fairly I remember that when former Chief Executive Mr LEUNG Chun - ying took office he also wanted very much to reform the government structure in this respect but as we all know there was filibustering in this Council at that time resulting in him taking office after his reform proposal fell through
市民對問責官員充滿期望，所以唯有在現時的架構裏下工夫。
The public has high expectations of the accountability officials so we are left with no alternative but to work on the current structure
我相信局方也會思考這個問題，但現時快將舉行行政長官選舉，是否最適合改革的時間呢？
I believe that the Bureau will also contemplate this issue but with the Chief Executive Election coming up is this the most appropriate time for reform?
可能現屆政府也在思考這個問題。
Probably the current - term Government is also contemplating this issue
不過，我相信未來有意參與行政長官選舉以至參與管治的朋友也會思考會否把房屋和土地合併為一個局，而我相信大家的答案也是認同的。
However I believe that those interested in running for the Chief Executive election and participating in governance in the future will also consider whether housing and land should be combined into one bureau and I believe that Members answer is also positive
所以，我們的研究結果也同意把房屋和土地規劃開發放在同一個政策局，不過是否名為"房屋及發展局"，我們尚未有結論，我們初步傾向名為"房屋及規劃地政局"。
For the aforementioned reason our study findings also agree that housing as well as land planning and development should be placed under one bureau . Having said that we have not yet come to a conclusion as to whether it should be called Housing and Development BureauOur initial preference is for Housing Planning and Lands Bureau
不過，在現時的政府架構裏，如果把工務配搭環境，我覺得好像與環境本身未必最相匹配，所以我現階段未能完全支持這個配搭。
However under the current government structure it does not seem to me that public works and the environment would be the best match so I cannot fully support this mix at this stage
我們初步的建議或我自己的構思是把主管運輸和工務的政策局結合，即回復以往原本的架構；另外，在環境方面，則把保育的工作與之結合，令到環境和保育可以一起處理。
Our initial proposal or my own idea is to merge the Policy Bureaux that are responsible for transport and public works namely reverting to the original structure and to combine the environment with conservation work so that the environment and conservation can be dealt with together
至於文化及體育局，我很同意陸頌雄議員剛才的解釋，但該局是否只處理文化及體育事宜呢？
As regards the Culture and Sports Bureau I very much agree with Mr LUK Chung - hungs earlier explanation but should that Bureau only deal with cultural and sports matters?
從我進行的研究看到，很多國家的設置就是把文化、創意、體育和旅遊結合為一局。
From the study I did I can see that many countries have combined culture creativity sports and tourism into one bureau
所以，如果文化及體育局獨立成局，可否考慮把體育和旅遊納入其中呢？
So if the Culture and Sports Bureau is to become a separate bureau can we consider including sports and tourism into its portfolios?
不過，歸根究底，對於如何重組政府架構，我認為每個政黨或每個人可能有不同的想法，關鍵也是如我剛才所說，現屆政府可能現時......局長的party line不容許他說要做，但我相信這是有意參與行政長官選舉或參與管治的人值得思考的。
However at the end of the day I think that each political party or individual may have different ideas on how to reorganize the government structure and the key is that as I said just now probably at present the current - term Government The Secretarys party line does not allow him to declare to do so but I believe that it is worth a thought for those interested in running for the Chief Executive election or participating in governance
事實上，正如問責制推出的初心，我們設立問責制的原意是讓行政長官可以選擇一組志同道合的人參與管治。
In fact just like the original aspiration in launching the accountability system we established the accountability system with the original intent of allowing the Chief Executive to choose a group of like - minded people to participate in governance
同樣地，政府架構亦應該讓行政長官與其團隊商量，推出一個他們認為最能夠達致良政善治的管治架構。
Likewise the government structure should allow the Chief Executive to discuss with his or her team to come up with a governance structure that they believe will best achieve good governance
所以，我在現階段支持麥美娟議員的方向，不過由於太具體了，所以民建聯投票時會投棄權票。
Therefore I support Ms Alice MAKs direction at this stage but as the amendment goes into too many specifics DAB will abstain from voting
藉最後的時間，我想回應葉太對蘇局長的批評。
I would like to take this last moment to respond to Mrs IPs criticism of Secretary SO
我明白為了辯論要舉出例子，不過我覺得那種說法可能未必完全是事實，我相信蘇局長稍後有機會再與葉太溝通。
I understand the need to cite examples for the sake of the debate but I do not find that narrative to be necessarily entirely true to the facts . I believe that Secretary SO will have an opportunity to exchange with Mrs IP again later
我覺得大家今天都是實事求是，討論如何進一步完善整個制度，而並非針對個人進行討論。
I think today we are all engaging in pragmatic discussions about how to further improve the whole system rather than discussions about individuals
主席，我發言支持李慧琼議員提出的這項關於改革主要官員問責制的議案，亦會支持我的同事麥美娟議員所提出的修正案，將這項議案具體化。
President I rise to speak in support of this motion on reforming the accountability system for principal officials which is proposed by Ms Starry LEE . Also I will support the amendment proposed by my colleague Ms Alice MAK which puts flesh on this motion
主席，雖然局長表示現在沒有"拉布"，政府的效能已提升了、辦事快了，但在這裏，我很想強調，今時今日社會對政府的要求和期望已有所不同。
President though the Secretary stated that the efficiency of the Government had been enhanced and the speed of its work had been raised in the absence of filibustering these days I still wish to stress here that what the community now wants and expects from the Government has changed
過去當"拉布"情況很嚴重，凡事變得很政治化時，政府做事慢，社會會認為"有少少落袋"、"袋住先"也好，有些事能走多少步便走多少步，當時社會是這樣的。
In the past when filibustering was at its height and everything became politicized the Government was slow in action . The community would thus consider it good enough to have a little bit of something to pocket first and to get as much done as possible for some issues . This was what the community was like back then
但今時今日，沒有了"攬炒派"、沒有了"拉布"的阻力的時候，社會的要求便有所不同了。
But today when there is neither the mutual destruction camp nor the obstruction caused by filibustering what the community expects has become different
局長，社會要求政府做事爽快些，要提高效能，所以，在這大前提下，如果政府仍未能解決房屋問題，以及未能處理貧富懸殊的問題，那它其實便是遠遠落後於形勢。
Secretary the community expects the Government to take swift actions and enhance its efficiency . So on this premise if the Government still fails to address the housing problem and the issue of wealth disparity it is actually far from keeping pace with the circumstances
主席，正如我剛才提到，過去一段時間，"政治化"的問題令香港舉步維艱。
President as I just mentioned over the past period of time politicization has made it extremely difficult for Hong Kong to move forward
民生議題長年累月都被政治化，這甚或導致一些議題未能獲得討論。
With livelihood issues having been politicized for long some of them have even been left undiscussed as a result
雖然議員議案是無立法效力的，但起碼大家可以討論一下究竟接下來社會有甚麼需要關注的問題，希望即使那些議案沒有立法效力也好政府能嗅到"????味"，但是，議員議案辯論是剛恢復不久，黃國健議員在早前的會議上提出"全方位增加土地供應"的議案，而今 天，麥美娟議員則就"改革主要官員問責制"這項議案提出修正案。
Though these motions are without legislative effect we can at least have some discussions about issues in society which require our attention then in the hope of―notwithstanding the lack of legislative effect of these motions―making the Government aware that something has gone wrong . Anyway debates on Members motions have just resumed for a short while . In an earlier Council meeting Mr WONG Kwok - kin proposed a motion on increasing land supply on all fronts and today Ms Alice MAK put forward an amendment to this motion on reforming the accountability system for principal officials
主席，其實我們並非說現行的問責制、政治委任制度一文不值，我們並非要表達這意思。
President actually we are not saying that the existing accountability system is worthless . This is not what we mean
反而，我們想強調社會的要求已提高，要求比以前更快的效率，這是政府一定要知道的。
Instead we want to emphasize that the community has higher expectations now and asks for better efficiency than before . This is something that the Government must be aware of
政府不能夠仍有這種心態，即：凡事慢慢地做，按部就班地做。
It should no longer hold the attitude that everything can be done slowly step by step
例如房屋，其實《長遠房屋策略》已經公布多年，但似乎就着何時達標並穩定10年後的土地房屋供應，政府仍未有着墨。
Take housing problem as an example . In fact the Long Term Housing Strategy has been announced for years but it seems that the Government still remains silent on when the target will be achieved with a stabilized supply of land and housing 10 years later
如果一切照舊的話，大家可以想象到，問題是不能解決的，所以大家才這麼着緊政府是否要在制度上作出轉變、改革，以加快或者......以表現出政府對某些問題的重視。
If everything remains the same as before we can imagine that it is impossible to solve any problem and that is why we are so concerned whether it is necessary for the Government to change or reform its system so as to expedite or to show that it takes certain problems seriously
