本周一，再有大批示威者堵塞灣仔稅務大樓及入境事務大樓的出入口和大堂，阻止市民進入大樓辦理稅務和各類簽證的手續，令人擔心圍堵政府部門、癱瘓公共服務的行動會沒完沒了，對市民日常生活及社會運作造成重大影響。
This Monday large groups of protesters again swamped the entrance and lobbies of the Revenue Tower and the Immigration Tower in Wan Chai stopping people from entering the towers to perform various tax and visa formalities . It is worrying that this kind of actions designed to paralyse public services by way of blockading government departments would go on and on with huge consequences to peoples daily living and social operation
我留意到在翌日，數名年青人到灣仔稅務大樓及入境事務大樓門外派發傳單，就前一天的圍堵行動向市民致歉。
I noted that on the next day several youngsters handed out leaflets outside the Revenue Tower and the Immigration Tower in Wanchai apologizing to the public for the blockade mounted the previous day
不過，他們一方面道歉，另一方面卻堅持圍堵行動有理。
Yet despite the apology they insisted that the blockade was justified
主席，社會上不少人認為，這群激進的示威者在最近兩個多星期的衝擊、佔路、圍堵行動，以及反對派議員在議會內的一些行為、提出的質詢及議案，可謂配合得天衣無縫，不知是否預先籌劃，有人教唆，甚至事前經過預演？
President there are many in society who find it remarkable that the storming acts occupation of roads and blockades mounted by those radical protesters in the last two weeks could be so seamlessly synchronized with some of the actions of opposition Members or the questions or motions they put forward in this Council . They wonder whether such actions have been pre - scripted abetted by someone or even rehearsed in advance
主席，我想應該不會吧。
I think it is probably not the case President
亦有朋友提醒我，自當局引用刑罰較重的暴動罪及公眾妨擾罪，檢控旺角暴動及違法佔中的組織者後，今次暴力違法衝擊、佔路及圍堵行動的參與者都說是自發的，背後沒有人指使，亦與反對派議員無關。
A friend also reminded me that subsequent to the prosecutions of the organizers of the Mong Kok riot and the illegal Occupy Central under charges of taking part in a riot or public nuisance which are punishable by heavier penalties participants of this wave of illegal storming road - occupying and blockading actions all insist that they have acted of their own accord denying the existence of masterminds behind the scene or any involvement with Members of the opposition camp
然而，每次爆發暴力衝突前，我都看到不少反對派議員在場，聲稱要維持秩序，呼籲示威者不要衝擊。
Yet every time when violent clashes were about to break out there would invariably be a number of opposition Members on scene ostensibly for purposes of maintaining order and dissuading protesters from charging
然而，每當發生真正衝突，有人擲磚頭、鐵馬、鐵枝時，反對派議員就會突然不見蹤影，令人覺得他們真的非常有團隊精神。
Every time when real clashes broke out however the opposition Members would all of a sudden be nowhere to be found amid the flying bricks mills barriers and metal bars . The level of team spirit they orchestrated was impressive indeed
此外，昨天有一群示威者先後到多個外國駐港領事館請願，要求有關國家趁即將舉行的G20峰會，就修訂《逃犯條例》的問題向中央政府施壓，公然邀請外國政府干預中國內政及香港事務。
Meanwhile a group of protesters presented their petitions to various foreign consulates in Hong Kong yesterday calling on the relevant countries to pressurize China over the issue of the FOO amendment in the upcoming G20 Osaka Summit in blatant invitation for foreign governments to meddle with the internal affairs of China and the affairs of Hong Kong
身為中國人，我對這種行動真的感到十分遺憾、痛心。
As Chinese I find such an action most regrettable and saddening
即使在晚 清時期，政府如此腐敗無能，也不會有中國人公然邀請八國聯軍攻打自己的國家。
Even in the late Qing Dynasty with an utterly corrupt and inept government no Chinese would blatantly invite the Eight - Power Allied Forces to invade their own land
昨天有反對派的議員以一些極不恰當的言詞侮辱一些議員、人士，說他們只聽從某方面的話做事。當然，我認為相關指控完全與事實不符。我反而覺得，相關指控、言論對這位議員本身及部分人士是一種反照。
Yesterday certain opposition Members insulted some Members and others with expressions that were utterly unparliamentary accusing the latter of taking orders only from a certain side
主席，剛才尹兆堅議員說有議員以偏概全，其實市民也知道是誰以偏概全地批評警隊依法執法呢？
President just now Mr Andrew WAN said some Members made one - sided generalizations . In fact people also know who has made generalized criticisms of the law - enforcement actions taken by the Police in accordance with the law
其實市民近日看到很多衝突的畫面，亦看到警察非常辛苦工作，為我們守護香港。
Recently people have actually seen many images of conflicts as well as the hard work undertaken by the Police to protect Hong Kong for us
我相信很多市民也希望警察繼續努力加油。
I believe many citizens also hope that the Police will continue to endeavour and make efforts
主席，我返回今天的議題。
President I now come back to the question today
主席，從2月起，政府提出修訂《逃犯條例》，至今已經4個月，香港從分化走向撕裂，從撕裂走向內鬥內耗，所有不論階層、背景的人也非常欷歔，難過至極。
President it has been four months since the Government proposed the amendment to the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance in February . Hong Kong has shifted from division to dissension and from dissension to infighting and internal attrition . People from different strata and backgrounds are all greatly saddened and extremely upset
我們既為香港痛心，亦為香港前路憂心、着急。
We feel sorrowful about Hong Kong and also worried and anxious about the way forward of Hong Kong
當下社會的紛亂、衝擊，極須各方正視並予以盡量平定、修復。
It is desperately necessary that various parties squarely address pacify and rehabilitate the present social disorder and clashes
張華峰議員所提出恢復社會秩序的議案，其實與上周提出議案內容完全不同。
The motion proposed by Mr Christopher CHEUNG with regard to restoration of social order is indeed entirely different from the one proposed last week
反對者及後發起大規模遊行示威，提出5項主要訴求。
Subsequently the opponents initiated large - scale processions and demonstrations and presented five main demands
民主建港協進聯盟必須指出：第一，我們一貫支持《條例草案》的立場不變。
The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong DAB must point out first our stance on rendering consistent support to the Bill remains unchanged
特區政府修例的主要目的，是為處理台灣殺人案提供法律基礎，彰顯公義，並讓香港社會與國際社會接軌，共同打擊跨境嚴重罪行。
The main intent of the SAR Government in amending the law was to provide a legal basis for dealing with the murder case in Taiwan in order to see justice done while bringing Hong Kong society on par with the international society in making joint efforts to combat cross - border serious crimes
第二，我們協助陳同佳案受害者昭雪沉冤的決心不變，至今縱使《條例草案》的工作不能夠繼續，我們的決心依然不變。
Second our determination to assist the victim of the CHAN Tong - kai case in redressing the injustice remains unchanged . To date even though the legislative work of the Bill cannot continue our determination still remains unchanged
民建聯將繼續努力，尋求一切可行的辦法，協助受害者家屬。
DAB will continue its endeavours to seek all feasible ways to assist the family of the victim
第三，鑒於社會環境的變化，為避免社會進一步撕裂或令更多市民因此受傷、流血，特首暫緩《條例草案》的工作，並就因而引起的社會紛爭致歉。
Third in the light of changes in the social environment to prevent further dissension in society or to prevent more citizens from suffering injuries and bloodshed as a result the Chief Executive has suspended the work on the Bill and apologized for the social conflicts created
民建聯尊重及理解行政長官將《條例草案》的工作暫緩，而政府上下已經多次表明，相關立法工作已經停止，社會各方應該冷靜，向前看。
DAB respects and understands that the Chief Executive has suspended the work on the Bill . And the Government as a whole has repeatedly made it clear that the relevant legislative work has stopped and various parties in society should calm down and move on
接着我也要再為警隊打氣。
Next I have to buck up the Police
香港警隊一直秉持專業精神和克制的態度來遏止罪行、打擊罪行，並且不畏強權、不懼羞辱、不辭勞苦、堅守治安。
The Hong Kong Police Force have all along been upholding its professional spirit and restraint to curb and combat crimes . Moreover they do not fear power nor dread insults; they spare no efforts to steadfastly maintain law and order
他們都是香港的好兒女，也是維護法治的先鋒。
They are all good children of Hong Kong as well as the vanguards defending the rule of law
即使現在他們處於艱難的時期，其間受到不少屈辱，但他們並不孤單，得到廣大擁護繁榮穩定的市民衷心支持。
Though they are now facing hard times and have suffered immense humiliation they are not alone and have won the wholehearted support from the general public who endorse prosperity and stability
我們衷心敬重這支優秀的警隊。
We sincerely hold such an outstanding Police Force in esteem
任何個別事件也不能抹煞警隊為香港所作的付出。
No individual incident can denigrate the Polices contribution to Hong Kong
主席，香港往何處走？
President where should Hong Kong go from here?
其實我們首先要停止內耗，而內耗及紛亂的平復，第一步是要從加強和深化溝通開始。
In fact we must first stop the internal attrition . And to stop the internal attrition and pacify the unrest the first step starts with strengthening and deepening communication
香港各方面，不論男女老幼及不同背景，都必須認真、冷靜、客觀、嚴肅思考及分析。
Various sectors in Hong Kong regardless of gender age and background must all engage in serious calm objective and solemn thinking and analysis
回應張華峰議員這項議案，我們要"求大同、存小異"。
In response to Mr Christopher CHEUNGs motion we must seek the largest common ground while reserving small differences
須知道，破壞可以靠仇恨，但建設卻須年月及心血。
One ought to understand that destruction can rely on hatred but construction takes ages and painstaking efforts
香港是我們的家，我們不要毀滅它。
Hong Kong is our home and we must not destroy it
主席，我發言支持張華峰議員的休會待續議案。
President I rise to speak in support of Mr Christopher CHEUNGs adjournment motion
主席，雖然修訂《逃犯條例》的審議工作已經完全停止，但示威行動並未因此而靜止，政府總部兩星期內關閉了4天，灣仔稅務大樓、入境事務大樓及警察總部亦遭示威者包圍，昨晚又發生多一次包圍警察總部的事件。
President although the scrutiny work on the amendments to the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance FOO has completely stopped the demonstrations did not thus end . The Central Government Offices were closed for four days within two weeks . The Revenue Tower Immigration Tower and the Police Headquarters in Wan Chai were also besieged by protesters
在這種社會氛圍下，行政長官一連兩周取消行政會議，選舉管理委員會原定於6月25日舉行的區議會選舉活動建議指引公眾諮詢會亦臨時取消。
Last night another incident of besieging the Police Headquarters occurred . Under such a social atmosphere the Chief Executive cancelled the Executive Council meeting for two consecutive weeks . The public forum on the proposed guidelines on election - related activities in respect of the District Council Election originally scheduled to be held on 25 June by the Electoral Affairs Commission was temporarily cancelled too
"明日大嶼"填海計劃的中部水域人工島相關研究項目撥款要排到最後，土地共享先導計劃亦推出無期。
Funding for the studies related to artificial islands in the central waters under the Lantau Tomorrow reclamation project was placed as the last item on the agenda . The Land Sharing Pilot Scheme was also postponed indefinitely
特區政府是否已經進入休眠狀態？
Has the Special Administrative Region SAR Government gone dormant?
每個人的看法或許不同，但毫無疑問，公共服務已經開始受到影響，香港警務人員的士氣亦受到嚴重打擊，但大家有否想過，香港去年的整體罪案數字是自1974年以 來最低，是全球最安全的城市之一，這個情況明顯與警隊出色的表現有關。
Everyones view may vary but undoubtedly public services have already been affected . The morale of the Hong Kong police officers has also suffered a serious blow . However did it ever come to our mind that with the overall crime rate last year being the lowest since 1974 Hong Kong is one of the safest cities in the world and this is obviously attributable to the remarkable performance of the Police Force?
假如有一天，香港再沒有這支出色的警隊維持治安，我們仍會是安全的城市嗎？
If one day we no longer have such an outstanding Police Force maintaining law and order will Hong Kong still be a safe city?
6月12日，在立法會大樓內的議員為數不多，我是其中一位，親眼目睹當天發生的事情。
On 12 June there were not too many Members in the Legislative Council Complex . I was one of them . I personally witnessed what happened on that day
參與當天公眾集會的絕大部分市民，包括學生及年青人，都是守法和平的，但並不代表當中完全沒有害群之馬，完全沒有違法、暴力及危害警員生命安全的事件發生。
The majority of participants in the public meeting on that day including students and youngsters were law - abiding and peaceful . But it does not mean there were no black sheep among them at all and nothing unlawful violent and hazardous to the police officers safety took place
我親眼所見，與大家看電視和手機片段一樣，的確有一群戴着口罩、眼罩，甚至蒙面的激進示威者，嘗試強行攻入立法會大樓，向警方擲鐵馬、擲鐵枝、擲地磚，導致有警員受傷、倒地及送院。
What I saw with my own eyes is the same as what Members saw in the videos on the television and mobile phones . There were indeed a group of radical protesters clad in masks covering their mouths eyes and even their faces attempting to charge into the Legislative Council Complex by force . They hurled mills barriers metal bars and bricks at the Police resulting in police officers being injured falling onto the ground and being sent to the hospital
這些全部都並非虛構，是真的發生過的事實。
None of these are fabrication . They are true stories which have happened
是否政府推動修訂《逃犯條例》或特首不肯下台，以上擲鐵馬、擲鐵枝、擲地磚、蓄意嚴重傷害他人身體的行為就會變成合法、和平、理性，甚至是值得鼓勵呢？
The Governments promotion of the amendments to FOO or the Chief Executives refusal to step down will not make the said acts of hurling mills barriers metal bars and bricks and deliberately inflicting grievous bodily harm lawful peaceful rational and even worthy of encouragement will it?
主席，張華峰議員提出的休會待續議案，原意是希望大家可以平心靜氣去討論現時社會的情況，如何令社會回復正軌，力保香港市民的生活回復正常，經濟上亦可以維持原有的各種優勢和地位。
President Mr Christopher CHEUNG proposed the adjournment motion with the purpose of facilitating a dispassionate discussion about the current social situation to see how society can get back onto the right track so that the people of Hong Kong can return to their normal lives and the economy can maintain various edges and positions which it originally enjoys
香港去年第四季度GDP實質升幅降至1.2%，今年首季進一步下跌至只有0.6%，是10年來表現最差的一季，可說是已接近衰退的邊緣。
In the fourth quarter last year the real growth of the Gross Domestic Product GDP of Hong Kong dropped to 1.2 % . In the first quarter this year it further dropped to only 0.6 % the worst quarterly performance in 10 years . It can be said that we are on the brink of a downturn
過去30年，只有在1997年亞洲金融風暴猛擊香港、2001年全球科網泡沫爆破、2003年SARS爆發，以及2009年全球金融海嘯，才出現如此低的經濟增長。
In the past 30 years such a low economic growth appeared only during the onslaught of the Asian financial turmoil in Hong Kong in 1997 the bursting of the tech bubbles around the world in 2001 the outbreak of SARS in 2003 and the global financial tsunami in 2009
目前，外圍的不利因素已經相當具殺傷力，中美貿易戰牽引着全球的神經線，沒有國家或個人可以獨善其身。
At present the unfavourable external factors can inflict considerable devastation already . The China - United States trade war has grasped global attention . No country or person can stay aloof
今年4月，國際貨幣基金組織第三次下調2019年全球經濟增長預測至3.3%，創下金融海嘯以來的最低增速，其中美國GDP增長率將從去年的2.9%降至2.3%，歐羅區從1.8%降至1.3%，日本則只有1%。
In April this year the International Monetary Fund lowered for the third time the forecast of global economic growth in 2019 to 3.3 % hitting the lowest growth rate since the financial tsunami . Among others the GDP growth rate of the United States would decrease to 2.3 % from 2.9 % of last year . That of the Euro area would drop to 1.3 % from 1.8 % and that of Japan would be only 1 %
與此同時，世界貿易組織剛剛發表最新一期《全球貿易數據與展望》報告，將今年全球貿易增長預測由3.7%大幅下調至2.6%，遠低於去年的3.8%，說明全球貿易增速從過去兩年的高於全球經濟增速，又返回低於全球經濟增速這個非正常的發展狀態。
Meanwhile the World Trade Organization has just released the latest report on Trade Statistics and Outlook substantially lowering the forecast of global trade growth this year from 3.7 % to 2.6 % far lower than 3.8 % of last year . It illustrates that global trade growth has reverted from being higher than the global economic growth rate in the past two years to an abnormal state of development of being lower than such a rate
主席，上述數據反映出香港面對的外在壓力，但近期就修訂《逃犯條例》的爭議又增加了內在危機。
President the figures mentioned just now reflect the external pressure faced by Hong Kong but the recent controversy over the amendments to FOO has given rise to an internal crisis
事實上，因應香港的整體經濟情況，我們應該深思一下香港未來的發展前景。
In fact in the light of the overall economic situation in Hong Kong we should deeply ponder the future development prospects of Hong Kong
2019年第一季度，香 港的GDP增長率僅為0.6%，同期深圳的增長率為7.6%，上海的增長率為5.7%，北京的增長率為6.4%，廣州的增長率為7.5%。
In the first quarter of 2019 the GDP growth rate of Hong Kong was only 0.6 % . In the corresponding period the growth rate of Shenzhen was 7.6 % ; that of Shanghai 5.7 % ; that of Beijing 6.4 % and that of Guangzhou 7.5 % . In terms of GDP after being surpassed by Shenzhen last year Hong Kong will also be surpassed by Guangzhou in 2019
繼去年深圳的GDP超越香港後，2019年廣州的GDP亦將會超越香港，香港的總GDP在全國現在只排第五，簡單來說，國家一線城市全部均在穩定增長，只有香港已經變成龜兔賽跑中的兔子。
GDP of Hong Kong currently ranks merely the fifth in the whole country . Simply put all the first - tier cities of the country are enjoying steady growth . Hong Kong alone has become the hare in the race against the tortoise
另一方面，香港貧富懸殊問題是社會矛盾的其中一個最主要原因。
Meanwhile the problem of wealth disparity is one of the main reasons for the social conflicts in Hong Kong
貧富懸殊這個社會問題，雖然不是一朝一夕可以解決，但我們可以做到的是，停止無休止的政治爭議，集中精神發展經濟，改善民生，讓年青人感到有希望，讓他們有拼搏向上的機會和動力，這才是政府及在座議員應該正視的問題。
Although the social problem of wealth gap cannot be resolved overnight what we can do is to stop the endless political disputes and focus our efforts on developing the economy and improving peoples livelihood thereby giving hope to the young people providing them with opportunities and motivating them to strive to move upward . This is precisely the problem which the Government and Members present should squarely address
代理主席，接連的街頭運動及警民衝突的片段，令香港一躍成為國際的焦點，有部分在外國居住的人，甚至一些外國投資者認為現時香港已亂起來。
Deputy President scenes of continuous street protests and confrontations between the Police and the people have turned Hong Kong into a focus of international attention . Some people living abroad and even foreign investors hold that Hong Kong is now in chaos
近日有報道指，不少商旅客人已經取消來港的行程，甚至有撤資的行動。
Recently it has been reported that quite a number of business visitors have cancelled their trips to Hong Kong . Some have even taken actions to withdraw their investments
為了保持香港經濟穩定發展，大家必須回復理性對話，放棄激烈的行動，讓市民日常的生活盡快恢復正常，才可以重建香港在國際上的形象。
To maintain the steady economic development in Hong Kong we must resume rational dialogue and give up radical actions so that the peoples daily life can resume normal as soon as possible . Only then can the international image of Hong Kong be rebuilt . The tourism industry of Hong Kong may suffer a hard time
香港旅遊業或會陷入艱苦期，其他關連的行業，例如零售、交通、飲食、酒店等也會受拖累，如果在短期內未能看到情況有明顯改善，這數個行業蒙受損失，實在並非香港人之福。
Other related industries such as retail transport catering and hotel may also be implicated . If no obvious improvement can be seen within a short period and these several industries suffer losses it is really not good for Hongkongers . Deputy President the international political and economic situations are complicated and volatile
代理主席，國際政治經濟環境複雜多變，在中美貿易戰的前景未明的大環境下，其實香港現在沒有很多"老本"可以吃，廣大市民最需要盡快聚焦經濟，專注民生，在繼續堅守自己崗位的同時，固本培元，強化香港的競爭力，放眼未來，把自己的家園建設得更好。
Against the general background of uncertainties in the China - United States trade war now Hong Kong actually does not have too many laurels on which it can rest . What the community at large needs most is to expeditiously focus on the economy and concentrate on livelihood issues . While remaining steadfast in our posts we should reinforce our strengths enhance the competitiveness of Hong Kong and be forward - looking thereby making Hong Kong a better home
香港現在必須重新出發，香港亦必須重新振作。
Now Hong Kong must start afresh . It must also revitalize its strengths
對於第一項元素，即休會，我不明白為甚麼要有這項安排。
Regarding the first element that is to adjourn the meeting I do not understand why such an arrangement is necessary
及後的重要議程項目包括對政府的不信任議案，以及很多市民關心的海濱用土地撥給解放軍使用的安排等，這些議程項目應在議會中得到正常和充分的討論。
These important items to be proposed for discussion include the motion of no confidence in the Government and the arrangement for allocating the harbourfront site for use by the Peoples Liberation Army which is of concern to many members of the public
不過，我想強調，對於張華峰議員提出的議案內容，我是贊成的，即要盡快平息目前的爭議，令香港人可以回復正常生活，我認為是應該這樣做的。
Having said that I wish to emphasize that I support the content of Mr Christopher CHEUNGs motion which proposes that the current controversy be resolved as soon as possible to enable the life of Hongkongers to resume normal
然而，所採用的方法必須是積極處理問題。
This I think is what should be done now but to this end steps must be taken to actively address the problem
我們現在面對很多矛盾，"解鈴還須繫鈴人"，政府必須積極回應市民的訴求，這樣才能真正令香港當前的問題得到平息。
We are facing lots of conflicts now . Let him who tied the bell on the tiger take it off . The Government must proactively respond to the public aspirations and only in this way can the existing problems in Hong Kong be truly resolved
代理主席，我們現時面對兩大矛盾，第一，是政府與市民之間出現很大對立，市民基本上已不信任政府，政府的民望下跌至回歸以來的最低點，這點大家都非常清楚。
Deputy President we face two major conflicts now . The first one is that the Government and the public are in diametrical opposition . The public basically trust the Government no more
這個矛盾之所以這麼強烈，簡單來看是因為市民反對修例，但政府卻堅持修例。
The Governments popularity has fallen and reached its nadir since the reunification and this we all know very well . This conflict has become so intense because in simple terms the public opposed the legislative amendment but the Government insisted on it
政府不單堅持修例，還要利用一個由不公義制度得來，對整個政府決策的絕對控制權，可以說是無所不用其極地加快通過修訂。
Not only was the Government insistent on the legislative amendment it even attempted to expedite by hook or by crook the passage of the amendment using the control power obtained through an unjust system to exert absolute control on the entire policymaking of the Government
具體來說，這個矛盾還出現在數方面。
Specifically this conflict has also taken shape in several dimensions
首先，市民憤怒的其中一個原因，就是政府沒有堅守"兩制"。
First a reason why the public are angry is that the Government has not firmly upheld two systems
"一國兩制"十分重要，但很多時候，內地只強調"一國"，以"一國"優先於"兩制"。
One country two systems is very important but more often than not the Mainland emphasizes only one country and gives priority to one country over two systems
可是，這次修例的安排，令香港市民可能曝露於"另一制"的法治制度下，而這"另一制"的法治制度是很多市民也沒有信心和擔心的。
But this time around the legislative amendment on this occasion may cause Hong Kong citizens to be exposed to the legal system of the other system and many members of the public have no confidence in and are concerned about the legal system of this other system
對於市民沒有信心和擔心，難道政府未能體察嗎？
Could the Government not appreciate the lack of confidence among the public and their concerns?
為甚麼一定要這樣通過這項法例修訂呢？
Why should the Government insist on the passage of this legislative amendment in such a way?
這是很多市民不理解，而且感到憤怒的。
Many members of the public have considered this incomprehensible and infuriating
另一令人感到憤怒之處，或是導致不信任的原因，就是當局以一宗港人在台灣殺人的案件作借口，推動一項更大範圍的修訂。
Another reason causing public indignation or distrust is that the authorities have used a murder case involving Hong Kong people in Taiwan as a pretext for taking forward amendments that cover a far more extensive scope
這項大範圍的修訂，令很多人擔心，甚至外國投資者也擔心，外國政府亦擔心他們在香港的僑民會受影響。
These extensive amendments have aroused concerns among many people and even caused worries among foreign investors . Foreign governments are also concerned that their citizens in Hong Kong would be affected
很多市民也認為這只是一個借口，因而對政府的誠信產生很大的懷疑。
Many members of the public considered that it was just an excuse and therefore they have great misgivings about the integrity of the Government
如果這個問題未能解決，而當局連誠信也被懷疑的話，政府如何可以有效管治呢？
If this problem remains unresolved and when even the integrity of the Government is questioned how can there be effective governance by the Government?
同時，不幸地，市民不再信任議會。
Meanwhile it is unfortunate that the public do not trust this Council anymore
議會在這次事件中未能發揮有效平衡，我們未能做到check and balance。
In this incident this Council was unable to strike an effective balance and we failed to exercise check and balance properly
議會在建制派全力配合下，我們無法制止一些不受市民歡迎的政府施政順利通過。
Thanks to the full cooperation of the pro - establishment camp in this Council we cannot thwart the smooth passage of government policies not welcomed by the public
在這次事件中，我們看到在中聯辦一聲令下，整個建制派便全部歸位。
In this incident we saw that when the Liaison Office of the Central Peoples Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region issued an order the entire pro - establishment camp took a uniform stance right away
大家看到"一國兩制"的削弱已是昭然若揭，這情況大家有目共睹。
As we can see the weakening of one country two systems is evident . It is there for all to see
對於今次問題的嚴重性，市民並不是隨隨便便......
In view of the severity of the problem it is not the case that the public have casually
蔣議員，請你停止發言。
Dr CHIANG please stop speaking
根據《議事規則》，議員發言的內容不得意指另一議員有不正當動機，而發言內容亦必須符合《議事規則》的規定。

若議員想回應其他議員的發言，可按下"要求發言"按鈕。
A Member who wishes to respond to the remarks of other Members can press the Request to speak button
代理主席，我相信我剛才所說的，並非我一個人的意見，是市民看到的整體現象，大家亦有這個看法。
Deputy President I believe what I said just now is not just my personal view but an overall observation by members of the public and they also hold this view
蔣麗芸議員，請你停止發言。
Dr CHIANG Lai - wan please stop speaking
蔣麗芸議員，請停止發言。
Dr CHIANG Lai - wan please stop speaking
請各位議員返回座位，保持冷靜。
Will Members please return to their seats and keep calm
代理主席，我們看到市民對這些矛盾感到非常憤怒，所以市民一次又一次的示威請願。
Deputy President we have seen that the public are furious about these conflicts and they have therefore taken part in demonstrations and petitions over and over again
