事實上，新界鄉議局早於2006年已經與10多個環保團體倡議成立保育基金，近年亦多次向政府當局提出這訴求。
In fact the Heung Yee Kuk New Territories and over 10 green groups have been championing the setting up of a conservation fund since as early as 2006 . And in recently years we have raised this demand with the Administration many times
綜觀美國、日本、南韓、新加坡及台灣等地，早已實行《國家公園法》、《自然公園法》，或設立相關的保育基金，以扶助政府推行保育政策，對自然環境進行投資及補償，從而實現自然生態系統可持續的動態平衡。
An overview of the United States Japan South Korea Singapore and Taiwan shows that these places already began to enforce their respective National Parks Acts and Natural Parks Acts long ago or have set up relevant conservation funds as support for their Governments implementation of conservation policies investment in the natural environment and compensation with a view to sustaining the dynamic balance in their ecological systems
相對外國，香港在這方面的政策發展較為落後，但遲做總比不做好。
Hong Kong lags behind these overseas places in this area of policy development . But it is better late than never
至於"以大埔船灣已修復的堆填區換取沙羅洞內具高生態價值的私人土地"的建議，亦是政策上的一大突破。
The proposal on the exchange for the private land with high ecological significance at Sha Lo Tung by offering the rehabilitated Shuen Wan Landfill in Tai Po is also a major policy breakthrough
政府過往已經以非原址換地方式保育港島半山景賢里這棟歷史建築物，如果這次成功換地，將會是首次保育高生態價值的自然地點。
In the past the Government already resorted to non - in - situ exchange as a means of conserving the historical complex of King Yin Lei in the Mid - Levels on Hong Kong Island . The exchange for land this time around if successful will be the very first time to conserve a natural site with a high ecological value
主席，我相信假如政府能夠靈活運用保育基金及以地換地的政策，將有助解決"不包括土地"所涉及的賠償問題。
President I believe the Governments flexible use of the conservation fund and also the land - for - land policy can help to resolve the compensation problems involving enclaves
近年，政府建議把54幅私人持有的"不包括土地"納入郊野公園的範圍，而截至去年年底，已經有6幅"不包括土地"被納入郊野公園的範圍，這樣等於把鄉村的土地凍結，直接影響土地的用途及價值，亦損害了土地業權人的合理權益。
In recent years the Government proposed to incorporate privately - owned enclaves into country parks . Up to late last year six enclaves were already incorporated into country parks . So doing has in effect frozen our village lands and directly affected the uses and values of such lands while also compromising the reasonable rights and interests of land owners
須知道，保育環境是政府、全港市民以至整個社會的共同責任，你我都有份。
We must realize that environmental conservation is a collective responsibility of the Government all people in Hong Kong and even the community at large including you and me
我們絕不能夠口講保育，實際上"慷原居民或村民之慨"，凍結或沒收他們的土地資產。
We must not give empty talks about conservation and actually compromise the interests of indigenous residents or villagers by freezing or taking away their land assets
以此作為保護環境的手段，但卻不付出一分一毫的合理賠償，我認為是不合理的。
In my view it is unreasonable to conserve the environment this way and refuse to offer a single cent of reasonable compensation
主席，我期望在保育基金的籌組過程中，政府能夠吸納相關持份者的意見，這會有助解決因為保育"不包括土地"與原居民業權所衍生出的矛盾與問題。
President I hope that in its preparation for setting up the conservation fund the Government can take on board the views of relevant stakeholders . This can help to resolve the conflicts and problems with indigenous villagers ownership arising from enclave conservation
保育不等於不發展，而發展亦並非"思想的癌細胞"，關鍵在於從保育及發展兩種價值中，取得一個適當的平衡。
Conservation does not mean non - development and development is not a cancerous thought as such . The key is to strike an appropriate balance between the two values of conservation and development
主席，這次是立法會就行政長官任內最後一份施政報告進行辯論。
President the Legislative Council now debates the last Policy Address by the Chief Executive in his term of office
一如既往，這份報告毫不鬆懈地為本港社會積極謀策，更提出高達180多項新的政策措施建議，有些為本港的持續發展鋪路， 有些則針對爭議性議題提出新的發展方向供社會討論。
As with its predecessors this Address remains vigilant in formulating strategies for the Hong Kong community proactively and this time it proposes more than 180 new policy measures . Among them some pave way for the sustainable development of Hong Kong others are new development directions raised in response to controversial issues and meant to be discussed by the community
總括而言，這份施政報告呈現了現屆政府近4年以來，在各方面施政一步一腳印的努力。
All in all this Policy Address is an embodiment of the strenuous efforts made by the current term Government on various aspects of governance in the last four years
例如，在安老扶貧方面，繼訂立官方貧窮線及推出低收入在職家庭津貼後，今年再為有經濟需要的長者增設一層高額援助；在醫療方面，去年預留2,000億元的10年醫院發展計劃，已開展多個項目；在覓地建屋方面，本屆5年間興建私人樓宇的賣地已較過往增加了1倍，但可惜公屋用地的供應仍然未能追上需求。
For instance with regard to elderly care and poverty alleviation it proposes adding a higher tier of assistance for elderlies with more financial needs following the formulation of the official poverty line and the launch of the Low - income Working Family Allowance Scheme . On health care the 10 - year Hospital Development Plan which was earmarked with a provision of HK200 billion last year has already had several of its projects started . In the identification of land for housing production land sale for private housing development has doubled within the five - year period in the current term of Government while the supply of land for public rental housing development has yet to meet the demand regrettably
在經濟方面，今年的施政報告再接再厲，推出多項措施協助本港新、舊產業抓住"創新"兩字步向新台階，以及進一步鞏固區域經濟融合，協助本港各界抓緊國家"十三五"規劃及"一帶一路"的戰略機遇，包括特區政府正與國家部委商討，如何合作參與"一帶一路"數以千億美元計的工程項目，並會推動在5個"一帶一路"沿線國家新設經濟貿易辦事處，又增加在內地的聯絡辦事處，加強彼此聯繫，這些都切中我在議會多年來的主張。
It also helps further consolidating regional economic integration and assists various sectors in Hong Kong to seize the strategic opportunities presented by the National 13 Five - Year Plan and the Belt and Road Initiative . The Special Administrative Region Government is now in discussion with the Countrys ministries and commissions on joint participation in the works projects under the Belt and Road Initiative which are valued at hundreds of billions US dollars . The Government will also take forward the plan to establish new economic and trade offices in five countries along the Belt and Road on top of increasing the number of liaison units in the Mainland to strengthen our connection
無可否認，政府凡此種種的努力，均值得社會肯定。
All these measures agree with the suggestions I made in the Council over the years . Admittedly all these government endeavours deserve recognition by the community
主席，經濟是民生之本，只有保持繁榮，我們才有財力不斷改善民生，亦只有實現多元經濟，我們的年輕人才可以各展所長，發揮潛力。
President the economy lays the foundation for livelihood . Only under a persistently prosperous economy can we have the financial means to keep improving peoples livelihood; and only under a diversified economy can the young apply their respective strengths and realize their potential
今年全球政治及經濟局勢複雜多變，我們更要居安思危，切實扶助新產業茁壯成長，並且認清不足之處，盡力掃除弱點。
Against the backdrop of a complicated and volatile global political and economic scene this year we must keep vigil in times of safety take practical steps in nurturing the vigorous growth of new industries on top of recognizing and endeavouring to overcome our own weaknesses
基於時間所限，以下我想聚焦談談我一向關注，與"創新"最有關係的創新科技及金融創新。
As time is limited I would like to focus on two topics about which I have always been concerned and are most relevant to innovation that is innovation and technology and financial innovation
今年施政報告有關創新科技的內容甚為豐富，只可惜仍然過分偏重於"硬實力"，相對忽略了"軟實力"。
The Policy Address this year talks a lot about innovation and technology though the emphasis is still more on hard power than on soft power
主席，政府已宣布投放180億元，通過設立"院校中游研發計劃"及"創科生活基金"等措施推動創科，今年並會加強投資創科產業的硬件。
President the Government has announced the 18 billion allocation for promoting innovation and technology via measures such as the establishment of the Midstream Research Programme for Universities and the Innovation and Technology Fund for Better Living
在土地供應方面，除了敲定落馬洲河套的"港深創新及科技園"大型計劃，科學園旁邊又會興建"創新斗室"，向在科學園工作的創新人員出租工作空間和宿舍，又在蓮塘和香園圍口岸附近預留大面積土地以供發展。
It will also step up investment in the hardware of the innovation and technology industry . On land supply apart from finalizing the Hong KongShenzhen Innovation and Technology Park in the Lok Ma Chau Loop Area an InnoCell will be constructed adjacent to the Science Park to lease work space and residential units to innovation workers in the Science Park . A sizable site near LiantangHeung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point has further been set aside for development
在資訊基建投資上，政府又倡議建設"空間數據共享平台"，把Wi-Fi熱點增至3萬多個等，均值得歡迎。
On investment in information infrastructure the Government proposes establishing a Common Spatial Data Infrastructure and increasing the number of Wi - Fi hotspots to more than 30 000 . These proposals and measures are all to be welcomed
施政報告亦非完全沒有提升"軟件"的措施，報告第57段便建議大學教育資助委員會檢討研究經費的分配方法，加入研究影響、知識及科技轉移成效等評審準則。
Measures for upgrading software are not altogether absent from the Policy Address . Paragraph 57 of the Address suggests the University Grants Committee review the allocation of research grants expand the assessment criteria to include research impact and effectiveness of knowledge and technology transfer
這些措施可謂最"貼地"，具有策略針對性，有助改變現時大學專注上游基礎研發及撰寫論文的文化，鼓勵院 校多投放資源在應用研發工作上，提高大學教授積極參與"院校中游研發計劃"，促進產、學、研合作，提升創科氛圍，值得支持。
These measures are arguably most down - to - earth as they strategically target university subculture help shift academic focuses away from upstream foundational research and development and thesis writing and encourage universities to allocate more resources in applied research and development instead . University professors are motivated to take part actively in the Midstream Research Programme for Universities . Collaboration among the industry academia and research sectors are promoted to help enhance the climate for innovation and technology
可惜，總括而言，施政報告對打造創科產業"軟實力"的支援，仍嫌不足。
All these measures are well worth our support . Unfortunately the Policy Address on the whole has fallen short of providing adequate support for developing soft power of the innovation and technology industry
首先，我過往多次提出，現有法律未能跟上不停蛻變的創科新型商業模式，以致限制了創科產業發展的問題，仍然未能得到政府足夠的重視。
First of all as I have pointed out repeatedly our legislation which fails to keep up with the ever - evolving business model of the innovation and technology industry is now restraining its growth . This problem has yet to receive due heed from the Government
例如，近期數間用戶眾多的國際創科企業，包括網絡召車服務Uber及出租住宿的民宿服務提供者，所進行的"共享經濟"商業活動，均因為本地法規問題，以致在香港的發展遇到阻滯。
For instance several international innovation and technology enterprises that enjoy sizable clienteles including Uber the network on - demand transportation service provider and an online apartment rental service provider have recently hit development hurdles while conducting business activities under the sharing economy in Hong Kong due to a problem in local legislation
此外，知識產權對於保護創新科技成果十分重要，是不可或缺的"軟實力"。
Furthermore the protection offered by intellectual property rights are highly important to innovation and technology products an indispensible soft power of the industry
但去年因立法會"拉布"而令版權法的修訂被腰斬，其後未見到當局提及何時會再度闖關，給予外界的信息是修例無期，十分不幸。
But the amendment of copyright legislation last year was halted abruptly due to a filibuster in the Legislative Council . Subsequent to that the authorities have not provided a date for putting forward the amendment proposals again thus giving people an unfortunate signal that the relevant legislation is not going to be revised any time soon
無可置疑，本港完善的法律制度，以及具國際視野的專業服務，均是我們既有的"軟件"優勢，但如果我們想跟上國際趨勢發展創科產業，便必須要妥善處理新產業與舊有商業模式之間的矛盾，掃除這些現存於我們"軟實力"的弱點。
Admittedly our exemplary legal system and global - looking professional services are the software edge that we now enjoy . But if we would like to jump on the international bandwagon to develop the innovation and technology industry we must first settle the conflict between the new industry and the old business model eliminating these weaknesses in our soft power
此外，施政報告沒有針對性措施，促進本港的創新投放或加強政府政策支援，是令人失望的。
It is also disappointing that the Policy Address offers no targeted measures to boost resources allocation or policy support for innovation and technology in Hong Kong
無疑，在創新及科技局成立後，創科氛圍確實有所提升，並吸引了如瑞典的卡羅琳醫學院和麻省理工學院的創新中心等權威性機構在香港設立分支，可惜卻無改本港創科投放不足的困境。
It is true that after the establishment of the Innovation and Technology Bureau the climate for innovation and technology has improved and authoritative organizations such as Swedens Karolinska Institutet and the MIT Innovation Initiative have set up local branches in Hong Kong . All these however have not freed us from the impasse of inadequate allocation for innovation and technology
目前，本港科研資金連同私人投入，僅佔GDP的0.7%，政府投入只佔0.4%。
Together with private investments the scientific research funding in Hong Kong now contribute only 0.7 % to the Gross Domestic Product GDP and the Governments allocation makes up a mere 0.4 %
比較之下，遠遠落後於以色列的4.4%、南韓的4.1%，以及鄰近的新加坡和台灣的約2%，也遠比一般發達國家和地區的3%資源投放量為低。
In comparison ours trails far behind the 4.4 % in Israel the 4.1 % in South Korea the 2 % in our neighbours Singapore and Taiwan and is way lower than the 3 % resources allocation made by other developed countries and areas
我希望政府見賢思齊，拿出魄力，制訂科研發展的整體政策藍圖，增加社會投放，包括鼓勵企業投放更多科研資源，同時為科技發展行業提供稅務優惠，讓他們在研發、人員培訓及購買高科技設備的開支，都可以獲得稅務扣減。
I hope the Government can learn from its admirable counterparts raise determination to formulate an overall policy blueprint for the development in scientific research and increase its allocation to society . Measures to be adopted may include encouraging enterprises to increase resource allocation in scientific research and providing tax concessions for science and technology development industries giving them tax deduction in spending on research and development talent development and acquisition of advanced technological equipment
此外，針對本港過往多年忽略培養理、工研發人才，窒礙創科產業發展的弊病，政府必須痛定思痛，致力優化教育政策，以及在社會上促成創新科研的風氣。
Furthermore Hong Kong has for years failed to groom research and development talents in science and engineering thus stifling the development of innovation and technology industry . In view of this the Government must examine its weaknesses strive to improve education policy and promote an atmosphere conducive to innovative and scientific research
現時，香港八大高校每年只培訓數百名工程和科技研究生，連理科研究生亦只有1,000多人，而且他們在畢業後也不一定從事科研行業。
At present the eight higher education institutions in Hong Kong are only able to give training to just a few hundreds of graduate students in engineering and technology a year or about a thousand - plus graduate students if those in science are included . And it is all possible for these students not to join scientific research - related professions after graduation
據2014年統計資料顯示，香港科研人員總數只有28,000人，以本地人口比例計，較經濟合作與發展組織國家為低。
Statistics in 2014 showed that scientific research personnel in Hong Kong numbered 28 000 and their proportion in local population was lower than that in the Organisation for Economic Co - operation and Development countries
在香港，STEM學科的收生成績普遍低於商科，STEM學生畢業後的收入亦同樣相對吃虧，而且職位選擇較少，令香港願意投身科研的人才不多。
In Hong Kong the admission scores of STEM disciplines are generally lower than that of the business school . STEM graduates also face smaller salaries and fewer job choices . Hence few people in Hong Kong choose to engage in scientific research
有研究發現，在2015年，1,250名STEM研究畢業生中，如果剔除從事相關學術研究的，便只有157人能夠從事與STEM學科相關的行業。
Findings of a study indicated that among the 1 250 STEM research graduates in 2015 only 157 went to STEM - related professions other than academic research
而且，從事專業、科學及技術行業的人士，月入中位數比起從事金融、保險、教育及行政行業的人士低近20%。
And the median incomes of those who join professional science and technology industries are about 20 % lower than those in finance insurance education and administration
如果政府想鼓勵更多年青人投身創科行業，就必須為他們從小培養非常濃厚的興趣，包括應考慮把STEM相關的編程教育納為必修課程，在中小學課程上全方面加強。
If the Government wants to encourage more young people to join the innovation and technology industry it must nurture an intense interest in them early on . It should consider for instance making STEM - related coding education a compulsory part of the curriculum and enhance it comprehensively throughout our primary and secondary school curricula
此外，我還建議可以借鏡美國的經驗。美國太空總署會定期與學校合作，讓學生從小接觸各式各樣的天文知識，認識火箭構造及相關的科學原理，不單讓學生感到造火箭和上太空並非遙不可及，更加重要的是，加深他們對科學的夢想和興趣。
Moreover I suggest the Government learn from the experience of the United States where the National Aeronautics and Space Administration works with schools regularly and lets young students get in touch with a variety of knowledge in astronomy learn the structure and scientific principles of a rocket from a tender age so that students will not find rocket building and space travelling remote and more importantly have their dreams and interest in science deepened
對於中學生，政府可與科技龍頭企業合作，提供STEM教育資源，灌輸科研行業的相關知識，激發他們將來投身創科行業的熱情。
As for secondary school students the Government can work with leading technological enterprises and ask them to provide resources in STEM education to help impart relevant knowledge in scientific research - related professions with a view to inspiring students enthusiasm in joining the innovation and technology industry
至於金融創新，今年施政報告提出要使香港成為訂立尖端科技標準的樞紐，以及積極研究網絡安全及區塊鏈的項目，並建立人才庫，這些都是值得歡迎的，可惜在報告內卻未見到具體的支援措施。
On financial innovation the Policy Address this year proposes establishing Hong Kong as a hub for the setting of standards for cutting - edge technology actively studying projects on cyber security and Blockchain and building a pool of talent . While these should all be welcome the Address has regrettably stopped short of discussing the provision of concrete support measures
金融科技發展一日千里，發展機遇龐大。
The galloping advancement of financial technology Fintech unleashes huge development potential
有報告還預測到2020年，全球金融科技投資將超過460億美元。
A report predicted that the global investment in Fintech will exceed US46 billion by 2020
遺憾的是，作為國際金融中心的香港，同樣因為"軟實力"不足，至今仍然落後於人。
Though Hong Kong is an international financial hub it regrettably remains a laggard to its counterparts yet again due to insufficient soft power
根據Ernst & Young會計師事務所就金融科技所作的研究報告，香港在紐約、倫敦和新加坡等7個主要金融市場中，排行最後。
According to a Fintech research report by the accounting firm Ernst Young Hong Kong ranks last in a list of seven major financial markets after New York London Singapore and a few others
例如在股權眾籌方面，政府可以考慮引入適當的規管措施及通過發牌監管平台，並把"監管沙盒"範圍擴展至銀行以外的行業及初創公司。
Regarding equity crowdfunding for instance the Government may consider enlarging the relevant supervisory sandbox to cover non - banking trades and start - ups via the introduction of appropriate regulatory measures and regulatory licencing platform
促進金融創新發展的因素亦不限於科技，新思維亦很重要。
Technology is not the only factor contributing to development in financial innovation new mindset is another vital one
例如發展綠色金融，便是香港開拓債券及項目融資市場的一個重大機遇。
The development of green finance for instance presents a great opportunity for Hong Kong to aggrandize its bond and project finance markets
根據中國人民銀行的估計，中國在"十三五"期間需要投資逾10,500億美元在綠色項目上，而中國政府只能提供當中大約15%，故此提供了大量發展機會。
According to the Peoples Bank of China China is projected to invest more than US1.05 trillion on green projects during the National 13 Five - Year Plan . With only 15 % of the sum coming from the Chinese Government development opportunities are created in abundance
多年來，香港債券市場發展大幅滯後，至今只集中在外匯基金票據或以個別法定機構的名義發行債券集資，根本與我們國際金融中心的地位並不匹配。
The development of bond market in Hong Kong has been sluggish for years with a concentration in Exchange Fund Bills or bonds issued in the name of individual statutory bodies to raise funds . Its development is definitely incompatible with our status as an international financial hub
但是，隨着全球越趨注重綠色經濟，多國簽訂了針對氣候變化的《巴黎協議》，中國、英國等多國政府已經採取行動，銳意發展綠色金融，投資於綠色產品及項目的資產也迅速增加。
However as the world places increasing emphasis on green economy many countries have signed the Paris Agreement which targets climate change . China the United Kingdom and many other countries have got in on the act commit themselves to developing green finance and the assets they invest in green products and projects accelerate rapidly
其實，港府去年都提過要發展綠色金融產品，並指會向外加強宣傳香港資本市場的優勢，可惜在施政報告未見跟進。
Indeed the Hong Kong Government also talked about developing green financial products last year and vowed to step up publicizing to the world Hong Kongs strength in capital markets . It is a shame that these proposals are not followed up in the Policy Address
港府應該打鐵趁熱，考慮成立綠色金融諮詢委員會或同類機構，以制訂長遠工作重點及提供協助，政府及公營機構並可牽頭發行綠色債券，藉此向本地及環球金融業傳達清晰明確的信息，同時促進資產管理、衍生工具、保險、私募基金等範疇的長遠發展。
The Hong Kong Government should make hay while the sun shines consider establishing a Green Finance Advisory Council or other similar bodies for the formulation of ongoing focus and provision of assistance . The Government and public organizations can take the lead in issuing green bonds so as to send a clear signal to the financial industry locally and globally and promote long - term development in areas such as asset management derivatives insurance and private equity fund
當然，即使政府前瞻性地為本港經濟發展制訂及時、適切的政策措施，若然在立法會遇上"拉布"，仍然是一籌莫展的。
Of course even if the Government is prescient enough to formulate timely and appropriate policy measures for the economy its hands will be tied once it meets filibuster in the Legislative Council
我特別希望各位立法會同事今天努力督促創新及科技局推動創科產業時，記取該局曾經因為本會的"拉布"，拖延了近3年才能成立的痛苦教訓，切忌再隨意以政治理由，輕易犧牲本港經濟轉型的機遇。
While fellow colleagues works hard in pressing the Innovation and Technology Bureau for promoting the innovation and technology industry I particularly hope that they can learn from the painful lesson that the Bureau took almost three years to set up because of a filibuster in this Council and refrain from forgoing our opportunity in economic transformation easily and randomly just for political reasons
我亦相信，只要是對香港有利的政策，無論是誰當選特首都會採納及繼續推行。
I also trust that policies beneficial to Hong Kong will be adopted and continued to be implemented by whoever elected as the Chief Executive
最後，我亦想提一提營商環境及中小型企業的問題。
Lastly I would also like to talk about the business environment as well as small and medium enterprises
今年施政報告對強積金對沖機制及標準工時兩方面的建議，都是商界特別關注 的，因為它們不但會直接影響中小型企業的生存空間，更會對本港經濟發展及國際競爭力有深遠影響。
Proposals made by the Policy Address this year on abolishing the offsetting mechanism in the Mandatory Provident Fund scheme and on the standard working hours have drawn special attention from the business sector . These proposals on top of exerting a direct impact on the room for survival of the small and medium enterprises bear a far - reaching impact upon Hong Kongs economic development and international competitiveness
雖然施政報告提出了一個取消對沖機制的建議，但勞資雙方都各有不同意見，政府在未來數月仍然會就這個重大的議題繼續諮詢持份者。
Despite the proposal in the Policy Address to abolish the offsetting mechanism employers and employees hold different opinions over the issue . The Government will keep on consulting the stakeholders in the following months over this important topic
標準工時政策亦一樣，雖然標準工時委員會已在上月底發表報告及建議，就標準工時政策提出建議，有關政策方向仍待政府在未來數月發表分析報告才能敲定，而勞方亦有不同意見。
Likewise for the policy on standard working hours though the Standard Working Hours Committee has submitted its report and proposals late last month regarding the policy the relevant policy direction will only be finalized after the Government releases an analytical report in the months to follow . Meanwhile the labour representatives also hold dissenting opinions
我希望政府和社會各方都繼續進行理性討論，找出一個大家都能接受，又最符合社會利益的優化方案。
I hope that the Government and various sectors in the community can continue discussing rationally for an improved solution that is acceptable to all and beneficial to society
我亦會向政府積極反映我界別選民的意見。
I will also actively convey the opinions of my constituency to the Government
代理主席，中國香港隊在今年東京奧運會大豐收，取得—金、二銀、三銅，是歷來最好的成績。
Deputy President the Hong Kong China delegation has reaped great harvests by capturing one gold two silver and three bronze medals at the Tokyo Olympic Games this year which are the best results ever
這成績其實匯聚了不少人的心血：運動員自身的不懈努力、教練的勞心勞力，以及特區政府投放的大量資源等。
Such results are actually the convergence of many peoples efforts including unremitting efforts of the athletes taxing dedication of the coaches and massive resources allocated by the SAR Government
在今次奧運會，每當香港運動員出場，上至特首下至普羅市民，不論是在辦公室或商場，均不分階層和政治理念齊心打氣，正如"飛魚"何詩蓓所說："今次很多人都在看比賽，彷彿令大家團結起來，變得更有力量"。
At this Olympic Games people ranging from the Chief Executive to the general public regardless of social classes and political beliefs and be they at office or in a shopping mall will all unite to cheer for every appearance of Hong Kong athletes . As Siobhan Bernadette HAUGHEY The Flying Fish said So many people are watching the games this time and this seems to have united everyone to become more powerful
感謝鄭泳舜議員適時提出這項議案，敦促政府要關注體育政策和發展。
I thank Mr Vincent CHENG for his timely proposal of this motion to urge the Government to pay attention to the sports policy and development
我會支持原議案及馬逢國議員的修正案。
I will support the original motion and Mr MA Fung - kwoks amendment
