這些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、小企業的工程師之外，還包括特區政府各部門內成為專業職系公務員的工程專業人士，其服務對象是全港市民，在社會上的作用、貢獻與地位無可置疑。
These individual electors must possess statutory registered professional qualification . They are hired either as engineers in big medium or small enterprises in Hong Kong or as engineering professionals among professional grade civil servants in various government departments in the Special Administrative Region to serve citizens throughout Hong Kong . Their function contribution and status in society are therefore unquestionable
任何隨意貶低甚至抹煞功能界別的主張並不可取。
Any views that randomly play down or discredit functional constituencies are unseemly
至於如何適當擴闊功能界別的選民基礎，是一個值得客觀地探討的課題。
Meanwhile regarding the appropriate broadening of the electoral base of functional constituencies it is an issue worthy of an objective examination
代理主席，新一屆行政長官已經順利產生。
Deputy President the new Chief Executive has been elected successfully
我和經民聯議員同事，期望候任行政長官林鄭月娥女士能夠盡快籌組新政府班子，日後致力改善行政立法關係，優先處理各項迫在眉睫的經濟和民生問題，包括設法增加土地和房屋供應，推動產業發展，設立雙層利得稅，加強支援中小企，拓展金融和證券市場，改善教育和醫療制度，妥善處理強制性公積金對沖機制，落實可持續的退休保障制度等。
My colleagues at BPA and I look forward to seeing the Chief Executive designate Mrs Carrie LAM line up the new governing team as soon as possible . We also long for their subsequent commitment to improving the relationship between the executive and the legislature and to priority handling of pressing problems about the economy and peoples livelihood including striving to increase the supply of land and housing promoting the development of industries adopting a two - tier profits tax regime strengthening support to small and medium enterprises promoting financial and security markets improving education and health care systems properly handling the Mandatory Provident Fund offsetting mechanism implementing a sustainable retirement protection system and so on
候任特首必須做好上述工作，切實發展經濟、改善民生，同時團結社會各界，重建社會和諧，凝聚共識，才可以為重啟政改奠定良好的基石。
The Chief Executive designate must aptly handle the above develop the economy practically improve peoples livelihood and at the same time unite various sectors in society rebuild social harmony and create consensus in order to lay a good foundation for reactivating the constitutional reform
所以，經民聯支持梁志祥議員提出的修正案。
Therefore BPA supports Mr LEUNG Che - cheungs amendment
主席，早前我與其他議員有份與發展事務委員會前往東江流域進行考察的活動。
President I joined the Panel on Development with other Members for a visit to the Dongjiang River Basin recently
我們觀察了東江和深圳供水系統的水質情況。
We looked at the water quality in the water supply systems in Dongjiang and Shenzhen
當然，這種考察總算是到實地視察過，留有印象，但走馬看花，看到的也是當局或內地相關機構及官員想我們看到的情況。
Of course this kind of visit means that we have at least an on - site visit with an impression but we only have a superficial understanding through cursory observation . We will only see the situation the authorities or agencies and officials concerned on the Mainland want us to see
一些實際情況可能未必得見，我們只可以發問。
We may not be able to see the actual situations and we can only ask questions about them
剛才我也聽到有議員說，發展事務委員會去年到新加坡考察時也曾遇上類似情況，指有些事未必能真正看見。
I have heard from Members that when the Panel on Development went to Singapore for a visit last year they ran into a similar situation and they might not have seen certain things
無論如何，有一點我想大家應該都會同意，便是香港如今一定要減少依賴其他地方供水，特別是東江水的供應，否則，我們之前也不用表示同意在香港興建海水化淡廠了。
Nevertheless I think everyone would agree on one point Hong Kong must reduce its dependence on water supplies from other places especially the water supply from Dongjiang . Otherwise we need not say earlier that we agree to build a seawater desalination plant in Hong Kong
當全球均面對水資源危機，香港作為全球的其中一個城市，我們不能只從這角度看事情。
When there is a global crisis in water resources Hong Kong as one of the cities in the world cannot see things from this perspective
聯合國已於2015年作出警告，如果全球各地不採取任何措施，則到了2030年，全球可用的淡水資源將會減少40%，所以我們一定要想出能實際有效地節約用水的方法，並妥善處理水的供應。
The United Nations warned in 2015 that if no measures were taken by various places in the world by 2030 the freshwater resources available for use on earth would decrease 40 % . Therefore we must come up with a method that is practical and effective in water conservation and handle the issue of water supplies properly
香港現時計劃興建海水化淡廠，這當然是可行的措施，我對此表示支持。
At present Hong Kong is planning to build a seawater desalination plant . This is certainly a good thing so I express my support
2015年，淡水流失率上升至33%。
In 2015 the above mentioned figure rose to 33 %
據報告書估計，2004年至2015年年間，因水錶未能記錄的淡水用量可能已令水務署損失了170億港元的潛在收入。
According to the report the Water Supplies Department may have lost as much as HK17 billion of potential revenue between 2004 and 2015 from its unmetered fresh water alone
政府對此是否真的"闊佬懶理"？
Is the Government really a big boss who does not care about this?
因此，水管滲漏等問題導致流失的水量差不多等於本地集水區的全部儲水量。
Consequently the water loss resulting from such problems as leakage from mains almost equals to the entire water storage capacity in our catchments
一談到加價，便極富爭議性，但我認為大家有需要考慮這點，甚至是其他建議，包括處理滲漏等問題。
Once fee increase gets into our discussion it will become very controversial but I think we need to consider this point or other proposals including addressing the problem of leakage
"推動'港人港水'，守護本地資源"的議案辯論。
The motion debate on Promoting Hong Kong people using Hong Kong water and protecting local resources
多謝郭家麒議員提出這項有關重啟政改的議案。
I thank Dr KWOK Ka - ki for moving this motion about reactivating constitutional reform
重啟政改好像引起了一些爭議，我們看到特首......
This subject seems to have aroused much controversy . We notice the Chief Executive
主席，對於重啟政改，好像曾經引起一些爭議，甚至連特首候選人以至候任特首亦表示，現時沒有必要、亦未必會重新討論政改。
President there seems to be some controversy over reactivating constitutional reform . Even the Chief Executive Election candidates and the Chief Executive - elect have said that discussion on constitutional reform does not need to be restarted now and it probably will not be restarted
不過，主席，雖然我進入議會是以推動民生為我的主要關注點，但我篤信一件事，便是沒有民主，哪有民生？
However President although improving peoples wellbeing has been my main concern as a Legislative Council Member I firmly believe that without democracy peoples wellbeing cannot be improved
很多市民都說政治與他無關，政改一事遙遙無期，做好民生便可以了。
Many people say that politics are not related to them and constitutional reform too distant to them and they are contented as long as their livelihood is properly taken care of
但是，政治會找上門來。
But politics will come to them
我們過去處理很多民生問題，包括在新發展區內被奪走地方和家園的村民和商戶，在市區重建項目中的居民、租戶、業主、店鋪老闆和夥計等，全部都發現為何在香港光天化日之下，他們的私產、生活、生計甚至是家園都可被人拿走。
We have handled many livelihood issues in the past including villagers and business operators whose land or home in some new development areas was taken away; and in some other cases residents tenants property owners shop operators and their staff members became victims of urban renewal projects . They all concur that their assets daily lives means of living or even their home have been taken away in broad daylight
這便回到整個政治制度，我們究竟如何規劃香港的寶貴資源，包括土地、公共財富，如何把財富分發至不同社群，在醫療、教育、房屋和社會福利等，其實這些都是政治。
We can trace the problem back to the political system to the way our precious resources including land and public wealth are planned and to the way wealth is distributed among different social groups . Politics cover health care education housing and social welfare etc
正正今天的政治框架不公平，這個議會在《基本法》下有一定的制衡權力，政府的財政預算要提交給我們審批，政府亦要提交法案給我們審批，但當我們審批時，代表市民的議會其實大部分人並不代表市民，小部分代表市民的人永遠都會輸，一旦投票便輸，這是本身的政治結構使然。
The Government has to submit its budgets and bills to this Council for scrutiny and approval . But when we do so many of us who are supposed to be representatives of the people do not stand on the side of the people . And the minority Members who do represent the people always lose in voting
如果我們要在社會和諧、氣氛較好的情況下才重啟政改，這是完全不可能的事。
This is caused by the political structure . It is definitely impossible to reactivate constitutional reform in a relatively harmonious social atmosphere
正正因為我們的政治制度不公平，我們才永遠不會很 和諧，氣氛不會很良好。
The unfair political system makes it impossible to establish harmony among us or build up a pleasant atmosphere
所以，我不斷從弱勢社群、社會公義的角度來看社會發展，如果我們的政治制度不反映市民的意願，不能夠讓市民真正當家作主，我們的民生永遠無法向前，重啟政改基本上是必然的。
It is fake . Thus I have been considering social development from the perspectives of the vulnerable and social justice . If our political system cannot reflect the aspirations of the people and make people the decision makers our livelihood can never progress forward
現在我們不"袋住先"，變成我們是民主罪人，甚麼也說得出。
Since we did not pocket it first we are now called the sinner of democracy . They can say whatever they want
不過，我想市民知道，香港今天面對的困難很大。
But what I want the public to know is that Hong Kong is now in a very difficult position
我們在一個極權國家內，在"一國兩制"的框架下，要尋求真正讓市民當家作主的制度，你說多困難，這根本是必然的衝突。
Being ruled under the framework of one country two systems by a totalitarian country you can imagine how difficult it is for us to find a system that truly allows its people to be the decision - makers
一個極權國家怎可能容許其管治的地方，哪怕這地方有"一國兩制"這個史無前例的安排，又怎可能真正給它民主呢？
Clashes are inevitable . Although this place is blessed with an unprecedented arrangement of one country two systems how could a totalitarian country possibly allow this place under its rule to have democracy?
不過，香港有利用價值，可以繼續替它花錢、集資，香港在經濟和政治上都可以成為中途站，可以幫助它發揮功能，於是便繼續。
But Hong Kong still has its values . It can continue to be a place for the Central Authorities to spend and collect money . We can be an economic and political gateway for it to achieve its aims
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：黃碧雲議員就郭家麒議員議案動議的修正案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the amendment moved by Dr Helena WONG to Dr KWOK Ka - kis motion be passed
代理主席，多謝毛孟靜議員提出這項議案，我相信"港人港水"的最重要精神是，要努力開發本地的水資源和減少對東江水的依賴。
Deputy President I would like to thank Ms Claudia MO for moving this motion . I believe that the most important spirit of Hong Kong people using Hong Kong water is to vigorously develop local water resources and minimize our dependence on Dongjiang water
不過，毛議員剛才問，為甚麼我要刪去"下屆"，這是因為據我所知，關於3年1次購買東江水的協議，其實現屆政府現正密鑼緊鼓地商討。
However Ms MO has just asked why I have to delete the phrase next - term . This is because as far as I know the current term Government is actually busily negotiating a new deal on the three - year purchase agreement of Dongjiang water
所以，如果寫明是"下屆"，是否表示現屆政府便可不理會統包制呢？
Therefore if next - term is stated does it mean that the current term Government can ignore the package deal lump sum approach?
因此我刪去"下屆"二字，意思是由現屆政府討論的協議，以至下屆政府均需要注意，要開發本地水資源和爭取對於香港來說，最有利、最合理和最高透明度的東江水議價機制。
As such I propose deleting the phrase next - term meaning that regarding the agreement negotiated by the current term Government or even the next - term Government attention should be paid to developing local water resources and fighting for Hong Kong the most favourable reasonable and transparent Dongjiang water pricing mechanism
看回香港的情況，香港現時有八成的食水依賴東江水，即向廣東省購買東江水至港。
Looking back at the local situation 80 % of Hong Kongs fresh water at present relies on Dongjiang water which means buying Dongjiang water from Guangdong Province and pumping it to Hong Kong . Hong Kong has been buying Dongjiang water from the Guangdong Province since 1965 . At the beginning the quantity - based charging approach was adopted
香港在1965年開始已經向廣東省購買東江水，初期一直是以定量收費模式，每年332天，有數天是沒有供水的，就332天，平均將11億立方米的東江水每天定量定額地運送至香港。
For 332 days in a year water was supplied to Hong Kong . On a few days there was no water supply . For 332 days a fixed quantity of 1.1 billion cu m of Dongjiang water was evenly pumped to Hong Kong every day
但是，在1990年代末，由於香港工業用水需求下降，供應香港的東江水是供過於求，令未能盡用的東江水排出大海，浪費了珍貴的食水，亦浪費了香港的金錢。
However in the late 1990s due to the decline in demand for industrial water in Hong Kong the supply of Dongjiang water in Hong Kong exceeded the demand leading to unused portion of Dongjiang water being discharged into the sea . Precious water was wasted and money of Hong Kong was also lost . Therefore since 2006 the SAR Government has switched to the package deal lump sum model instead
我們翻查資料，香港在過去10年，只有2011年最接近供水的上限。
After digging into some information we find that over the past decade only in 2011 did Hong Kong consume an amount of water which was closest to the supply ceiling
以去年2016年作為例子，香港只用了內地供應東江水的總額的76.7%，另外大約的25%，其實我們同樣要支付水費，即使我們沒有用，但也要支付費用。
For last year 2016 Hong Kong only consumed 76.7 % of the overall quantity of Dongjiang water purchased from the Mainland . We had to pay for the remaining some 25 % as well . Even though we had not used it we were still charged for it
雖然我曾聽過官員解釋，如果不設定較高的供水量，至遇到百年一遇的旱災時，廣東未必能供應足夠的水給香 港，所以，當作是購買保險。
Although I have heard explanations by some officials who say that if a higher water supply threshold is not set at times of once - in - a - century drought Guangdong may not be able to supply sufficient water to Hong Kong . Therefore the package can be seen as an insurance coverage
故此，在這個問題上，我仍然認為，政府應該再次與廣東省政府商討，如何調節購買東江水單位的水價。
Regarding this issue I still think that the Government should negotiate with the Guangdong provincial government again on how to revise the unit purchase price of Dongjiang water
本港現時大約使用七成多東江水，有兩成多的水沒有泵來港，這方面使用的電費是多少錢呢？
At present Hong Kong is using about some 70 % of the Dongjiang water we purchase . Some 20 % of water is never pumped to Hong Kong . How much can this be translated into electricity costs?
如果比較香港購買東江水的水價，可以看到香港購買東江水的水價飆升厲害，令到香港人要支付的水費節節上升。
If you compare the prices Hong Kong has been paying for Dongjiang water you can see that there has been a sharp rise in the purchasing price of Dongjiang water paid by us . Hence the water bills paid by Hong Kong people have also gone up
我們最近前往內地參觀的時候，有機會與廣東省水利廳的官員提到我們的憂慮。
During our recent visit to the Mainland we had the opportunity to relay our concern to the officials of the Water Resources Department of Guangdong Province
怎樣可以令政府站在香港人的角度，爭取一個更合理的東江水的議價機制？
How can we make the Government fight for a more reasonable price negotiation mechanism on Dongjiang water from the perspective of Hong Kong people?
我們當然明白談判、議價是困難的，但廣東省方面至今的確沒有說出一條很清晰的方程式，告訴我們價錢是怎樣計算出來的。
We do understand that negotiation bargaining is nothing easy but it is true that the Guangdong Province has never told us how the price is calculated in terms of an explicit formula
我們看到水價在過去上升得很快。
We can see that the water price has been rising very rapidly
在2006年，我們使用了25億港元購買8億2,000萬立方米的東江水；但在2017年，購買同等容量的東江水，就已經由25億港元上升至48億港元。
In 2006 we spent HK2.5 billion to buy 820 million cu m of Dongjiang water . In 2017 the purchase price for the same quantity of Dongjiang water has gone up from HK2.5 billion to HK4.8 billion
十年之間翻一番，水價不經不覺就由25億元變為48億元，升幅高達92%。
Unknowingly the price of water has almost doubled in a decade from 2.5 billion to 4.8 billion . The rate of increase is as high as 92 %
其實，我們都要了解為何10年來的水價會有差不多1倍的升幅。
In fact we need to know why the price of water has almost doubled in a decade
我們當然知道人民幣大幅上升，會令到本港要負責人民幣升幅的風險，這是一個問題，而另一個是關於營運的問題。
We do understand that with the substantial appreciation of RMB Hong Kong has to bear the risk of a stronger RMB . This is one side of the problem; the other is about actual operation
我們希望政府可以全力從香港人的角度，爭取一個最有利、合理及高透明度的議價機制。
We hope the Government can strive for the most favourable reasonable and transparent negotiation mechanism from the perspective of Hong Kong people
我當然亦非常同意，長遠來說應該全力增加開發本地的水資源，包括推動雨水重用、回收、增建水塘及增加現有 水塘的儲水量、增加海水化淡廠。
Indeed I agree strongly that in the long run we should step up our efforts to develop local water resources including the promotion of rainwater recycling and reuse addition of reservoirs higher storage capacity of existing reservoirs and more desalination plants
剛才黃碧雲議員已經發言。
Just now Dr Helena WONG has already spoken
我隨後會依次請劉國勳議員及梁繼昌議員發言；但他們在現階段不可動議修正案。
I will then call upon Mr LAU Kwok - fan and Mr Kenneth LEUNG to speak respectively; but they may not move the amendments at this stage
另一方面，教育部在本年初公布《2017年工作要點》，該等要點包括"全面落實中央對港澳教育工作的各項任務"。
On the other hand the Ministry of Education published early this year the Key Points of Work for 2017 which included implementing on a full scale the various tasks assigned by the Central Government in respect of the work on the education in Hong Kong and Macao
然而，《基本法》第二十二條規定，中央人民政府所屬各部門、各省、自治區、直轄市均不得干預香港特別行政區自行管理的事務；第一百三十六條訂明，特區政府在原有教育制度的基礎上，自行制定有關教育的發展和改進的政策。
However Article 22 of the Basic Law stipulates that no department of the Central Peoples Government and no province autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government may interfere in the affairs which the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region HKSAR administers on its own; Article 136 provides that on the basis of the previous educational system the HKSAR Government shall on its own formulate policies on the development and improvement of education
局長的主體答覆是這樣說的，"出於尊重對方，我們不宜單方面公開這類會議的相關文件或具體引述會面內容"。
The main reply of the Secretary says Out of respect for our counterparts it is not appropriate for us to unilaterally publish the meeting papers or disclose the contents of the meetings in detail
但是，對方又如何呢？
However what about their counterparts?
是否有不可告人的秘密？
Are there any secrets which cannot be divulged?
我的關注是，交流合作是可以的，但我們不接受超出交流合作範圍的事情。
My concern is that they can work on exchanges and collaboration projects but anything that goes beyond the scope of exchanges and collaboration projects will be unacceptable
究竟今次或以後會否將相關的內容向上級報告，以及用某種方式透過立法會向公眾交代交流的情況？
Will the officials report the contents of this meeting or future meetings to the higher authorities and disclose the exchanges to the public through various means in the Legislative Council?
中共要操控意識形態，除了操控新聞界，更重要的是操控教育。
When the Communist Party of China seeks to impose ideological control it must control the press and more importantly it must control education
局長剛才提到有一個"會商機制"，又說不能公開"會商機制"的會議內容。
The Secretary just mentioned that there is the meeting mechanism but that the contents of meetings on the meeting mechanism cannot be made public
但是，我們看到，舉行了"會商機制會議"之後，香港的教育實際上出現了不同，例如教育局正更新《中學教育課程指引》，突然增加了一些《基本法》的......
Nevertheless we see that after the meetings of the meeting mechanism there are some changes to the education of Hong Kong . For instance the Education Bureau is updating the Secondary Education Curriculum Guide and the teaching of the Basic Law has suddenly be enhanced
教育局正更新《中學教育課程指引》，突然新增一些《基本法》的時數。
The Education Bureau is updating the Secondary Education Curriculum Guide and some teaching hours for the Basic Law are suddenly added
我舉出一個例子，在教授《基本法》、普選行政長官的時候要問，究竟普選特首是否萬能等問題......
I will quote an example . When teaching the Basic Law on the topic of selecting the Chief Executive by universal suffrage the teacher will ask questions like whether selecting the Chief Executive by universal suffrage is a solution to all problems
主席，就教育問題，我想從教育的角度，向局方提問。
President I would like to ask the Bureau from the perspective of education
根據國家教育部《2017年工作要點》提到香港的部分，其中講及要構建教育對外開放的新格局，當中包括扎實推進"一帶一路"的教育行動。
According to the section on Hong Kong in the Key Points of Work for 2017 of MoE a framework of opening up education to other countries has to be established and this will include steadily promoting the educational measures under the Belt and Road initiative
就此方面，特首今年的施政報告亦提出要資助本港青年到"一帶一路"的國家交流，亦提到要增設獎學金予"一帶一路"國家的青少年來港讀書，這兩項措施是否就是國家對香港教育工作所謂的"任務"？
In this regard in the Policy Address this year the Chief Executive has also mentioned subsidizing local young people in having exchanges in the Belt and Road countries and introducing scholarships to the young people in the Belt and Road countries for studying in Hong Kong . Are these two measures the so - called tasks of the State regarding education in Hong Kong?
如是，中央會向我們提供甚麼協助，以盡快落實這兩項工作？
If they are what assistance will the Central Authorities provide to us in order to implement these two tasks as soon as possible?
主席，葉建源議員今天的質詢，主要是關於內地對於香港的教育制度或一些教育工作的各項任務，這些已經提過。
President the question of Mr IP Kin - yuen today is mainly about the various tasks assigned by the Mainland in respect of the education system or the work on the education in Hong Kong and this part has been mentioned
其他地方過去曾否發表過任何建議，指香港制度哪些地方好，哪些地方不好，甚至會否有政治的問題存在呢？
In the past have other places given any recommendations and pointed out the merits and demerits of the system in Hong Kong? . Will political issues also be touched upon?
人們有一種說法。剛剛才聽完人大常委會委員長張德江在北京大聲清楚、振振有詞雖然亦有人說是囉囉唆唆說明香港的"高度自治"完全是由北京作主，它說有多少就是多少。
Someone has made the following remark the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National Peoples Congress ZHANG Dejiang has just spoken categorically with a loud and clear voice in Beijing―though some others have described his speech as nagging―that the high degree of autonomy of Hong Kong was subject totally to decisions of Beijing
北京對着我們的最高領導人，所謂特首有指令權，基本上北京想怎樣便怎樣。
The degree of autonomy the city could enjoy was up to Beijing as the Central Authorities had the right to give orders to our highest leader the so - called Chief Executive . Basically Beijing could do whatever it thought fit
但是，我們是為下一代爭取；我們為下一代負責；我們向歷史負責。
However we are duty - bound to fight for this for our next generation . We have to be responsible for them and we have to be responsible for history as well
否則，如果因為明知不可為，所有人便離開，不用做事，人類文明亦不會有進步。
If we are scared off by the sense of impossibility and do nothing at all human civilization can no longer make progress
否則，今次便可以"一人一票"。
Otherwise this election would have been conducted by one person one vote
這般水準的發言，連最年輕的大學一年級生及修讀政治課101的大學生也不如。
The standard of their speeches is even inferior to those of first - year undergraduate students or university students taking Politics 101
我在今年的大考出過類似的政治題目，我認為是比較顯淺。
In setting this years final examination I have picked a similar political topic which I think is relatively simple
大學生也懂得說，如果我們當初同意並通過政改，這句話是廢話，這種政改有篩選關卡存在。
Even undergraduates know that such saying as in case we had supported and passed the constitutional reform initially is nothing but bullshit for this kind of constitutional reform would be embedded with screening and hurdles
如果是"一人一票"的話，便不會有曾俊華、胡國興入閘參選，反而"葉劉"可以入閘，因為她是經北京篩選較安全的人選。
If it were a one person one vote election both John TSANG and WOO Kwok - hing would not have been able to secure enough nominations to enter the race . Instead Regina IP would have been able to stand for the election as she was a more secured candidate who had undergone screening by Beijing
但是，今次她仍不能被篩選，因為香港仍然是小圈子選舉。
However she could not undergo such a screening process to enter the race this time as the recent election was still operated in the form of a small - circle election
有一班小圈子選委，只不過民主派人士掙扎求成，成功爭取 到300多票進入去。
There were small - circle Election Committee EC members though the democratic camp had struggled hard to get over 300 seats in EC
他們連大學生政治課101的基本理論和理念也無法反駁，還在此爭拗甚麼呢？
For those who cannot refute even the basic principle and concept of the Politics 101 in universities what is the point of keeping on arguing?
當張德江又說現時形勢複雜，是時候就第《基本法》第二十三條立法，那些"擦鞋仔、擦鞋女"飛快走出來說這是我們的憲制責任，誰會不知道呢？
On hearing ZHANG Dejiangs call for legislation on Article 23 of the Basic Law in response to the current complicated situation those bootlickers have rushed straight to say it is our constitutional responsibility . Who does not know this argument?
該條例應是保護議員在議會上發言，現在是說其行為，說他涉嫌中斷議會等，所謂offence。
The Ordinance originally seeks to protect Members right to speak freely at meetings . But now the Department of Justice targets at his behaviours accusing him of allegedly interrupting the proceeding of the meeting the so - called offence
民主派多年來說得很清楚，請先有真正的普選，沒有篩選的普選，我們才會談就第二十三條立法。
For years the democratic camp has made it very clear that a prerequisite for any discussion of the legislation of Article 23 is the introduction of a genuine universal suffrage a universal suffrage without screening
"大佬"，當中的條款涉及很大筆的金錢，不是人人可享用，因為很難會有人來投標。
But my goodness one of the provisions of the project involves a large sum of money . The money is not for us . It is for tenderers who submit bids for the project because it will be rather difficult to attract bids
因為"擦鞋仔"當道，他們人數眾多，那又有甚麼辦法呢？
With so many bootlickers forming a majority here what can we do?
所以，請各位看清楚，林鄭月娥當選下任特首，她是勝之不武，這是任何香港人有目共睹的。
We have to realize that while Carrie LAM was elected Hong Kongs next Chief Executive it is an ignominious victory for her
如果她真正想挽回香港人的信心，首要做的便是應好好考慮重啟政改。
Her inglorious success was witnessed by each and every people of Hong Kong . If she really wants to restore the confidence of Hong Kong people the very first thing she has to do is to properly consider reactivating constitutional reform
我們要真普選，而真普選最大的定義就是沒有篩選......
We want a genuine universal suffrage and an integral part of genuine universal suffrage is no screening
我們說"港人港水"，當中有一個政治意義。
When we talk about Hong Kong people using Hong Kong water there is a political significance in it
