財富只集中在少數人手上，一般中小券商和投資者，完全無法分享金融市場蓬勃發展的成果。
But this has at the same time created a wealth gap in the sense that wealth is concentrated only in the hands of a few people while small and medium securities dealers and investors in general are unable to enjoy the fruit of the prosperous financial markets in Hong Kong
當股價大幅炒高後，股價便好像過山車般急速向下，引誘散戶入局接貨。
After being pushed up by speculation the share price will dive like a rollercoaster luring individual investors to fall into the scam and buy the shares
莊家就是透過這種"向下炒"的蠱惑招數，不斷配股和供股，以至使用"十合一"，甚至"一百合一"等所謂財技，不斷推低股價，一再壓榨小股民。
With the trick of downward price manipulation comprising placement right issues and even the so - called financial techniques of 1 - for - 10 split or even 1 - for - 100 split market makers keep lowering the share price to exploit small investors over and over again
再於股價低落時配股予相關人士，把小股東的資產盡量魚肉於股掌上。
They will sell the shares to certain private investors through placement when the share price is at low levels thus putting the assets of small shareholders totally under their control
又以創業板為例，今年共有35隻股份在創業板上市，但股價從最高回落九成的，在35隻中已有15隻，比例是四成，如果從高價回落五成以上的股份亦計算在內，便多達26隻，佔全年上市創業板比例逾七成，可見市場已經處於極不健康的狀態。
There have been totally 35 new listings on GEM so far this year but 15 or 40 % of these 35 new listings saw a plunge of 90 % from their respective peak prices . If those new listings with a plunge of 50 % or more from their peak prices are also counted the number will be as large as 26 representing over 70 % of the new listings on GEM so far this year . This can show that the market has been in a very unhealthy state
造成以上現象，跟近年內地資金湧港，紛紛收購上市公司，進軍本港金融市場有關。
The above phenomenon has something to do with the influx of Mainland capitals into Hong Kongs financial markets for the acquisition of listed companies this year
本來北水南調，增加資金入市是一件好事，但"殼股"卻也應運而生，導致"啤殼"成風，令"殼股"成為香港獨特的奇景：公司上市不是因為真正有業務發展的需要，只是想在上市後盡快將股權出讓，多賺一筆快錢。
Basically capitals from the Mainland are a good thing because they can increase capital inflow into our market but this has also given rise to shell stocks . The formation of shell companies has turned prevalent and shell stocks are now a strange phenomenon unique to Hong Kong . A company is listed not because there is any genuine need for business development but because people want to sell its shares quickly after listing in order to make quick money
因為一個殼，主板市價一般叫價高達7億元，創業板也要3億5,000萬元，再者，整個申請過程只需6個月至9個月便可完成，獲利之深，令人咋舌，難怪這麼多人為"殼股"賣命。
Simply because the price of a shell company is generally as much as 700 million on the Main Board but only 350 million on GEM . Besides the entire application process takes only six to nine months to complete . The profit is thus very huge so it is small wonder that many people are so devoted to shell stocks
公司這邊廂上市，連第一年年報還未發表，那邊廂股權已經出讓，為何堂堂一個國際金融中心會變成這樣呢？
As soon as a company is listed and even before the release of its first annual report its shares are already for sale . Why has a big international financial centre like ours ended up this way?
我認為除了政策上有傾斜之外，是否整個管理和監督制度出現問題呢？
Apart from a policy imbalance I just wonder are there any problems with the entire management and regulatory regime?
事實上，香港"老千股"的惡名，早在內地廣為流傳。
In fact Hong Kongs notorious cheating shares have long since caught widespread attention in Mainland China
以下我引述一段早在微信中瘋傳的文章，這篇文章是"港股不得不提防的'老千股'陷阱"，文章中有一句是這樣寫的："老千股是香港股市的土特產，是A股市場所沒有的。
Let me now quote a few words from an article shared widely on WeChat earlier . The article is entitled Always mind the traps of cheating shares in Hong Kong stocks . Some words in this article read and I quote Cheating shares are a local produce of the Hong Kong stock market and they are not found in the A - shares market
這一方面是由於香港特有的監管寬鬆和發行制度，另一方面是由香港人的投機精神造就的。
They result from Hong Kongs uniquely loose systems of monitoring and share - issuance on the one hand and the speculative mentality of Hong Kong people on the other . End of quote
我們致力推動滬港通，以至下周一開通的深港通，都是為吸引內地投資者來港投資，難道我們可以對於內地投資者對香港的這種批評視若無睹，自我感覺良好？
The reason why we have put in so many efforts to promote the Shanghai - Hong Kong Stock Connect and the Shenzhen - Hong Kong Stock Connect due to be launched next Monday is that we want to attract inward investment from the Mainland . Therefore should we still tell ourselves that all is fine and simply ignore such criticisms about Hong Kong from Mainland investors?
我不希望有些人只是堅持護短，堅持說上市機制運作良好，無須改變，如果真的這麼好，為何這麼多公司一上市便變臉，重要資產迅速蒸發？
I do not hope to see anyone continue to protect the defect of our listing mechanism and insist that it has been working well requiring no changes . If it really has been working so well why have so many companies changed so drastically immediately after listing? . Why have their main assets evaporated so very rapidly?
這些老千手法不斷削弱海內外投資者對香港市場的信心，結果投入市場的資金不斷萎縮，拖累中小券商的業務，令小券商不是結業便是賣盤，明明這是近似詐騙的行為，偏偏可以在公司上市後，避過證監會的執法行動，還可以明目張膽地在市場橫行。
Such scams have been eroding the confidence of outside and local investors in the Hong Kong market causing a continuous shrinkage of capital entry and dealing a blow to the business of small and medium securities dealers . As a result such dealers either have to close down or sell their businesses . These practices are clearly similar to frauds but then the companies concerned can still dodge SFCs enforcement actions after listing and even do whatever they want blatantly
我想問證監會，為何對我們這些一直循規蹈矩的中小券商的規管態度會是如此不合理，採取寧枉莫縱，有殺錯無放過的態度？
Why has SFC adopted such an unreasonable regulatory attitude towards all the law - abiding small and medium securities dealers like us striving at stringency at all costs even to the extent of victimizing the innocent?
為何動輒譴責中小券商，並罰款，甚至威脅要"釘牌"，但對這些在市場橫行的老千，卻毫無辦法呢？
Why does it condemn small and medium securities dealers impose fines on them and even threaten to revoke their licences so very lightly all the time while doing nothing to stop all the swindlers from rampaging across the market?
為何證監會增加人手、增加資源後，又無法打擊我所提及的種種失當行為呢？
How come SFC is still incapable of combating the various misconducts that I have mentioned even after increasing its manpower and resources?
所以，就上市架構諮詢文件而言，我認為我們的制度需要改革，但改革一定要達到數個重要目的，包括不能窒礙整體市場發展、運作上應更具透明度、充分引用以披露為主的審核制度，以及就市場適應性規範訂定清晰的指引，以吸引更多新公司來港上市。
Therefore regarding the consultation paper on the listing structure I maintain that our system needs reform but the reform must achieve several important objectives including not obstructing the overall development of the market allowing more operational transparency in the system fully adopting a disclosure - based system of vetting and approval and setting out clear guidelines on market adaptability in order to attract more new companies to list in Hong Kong
最重要的是，對廣大投資者提供更大的保障，要做到以上數點，證監會需要認真聆聽市場各持份者不同的聲音，日後作出任何改變，也要增加業界的參與，絕不能一意孤行，更不能霸王硬上弓。
Most importantly it should provide greater protection to investors at large . To achieve these objectives SFC must listen to the voices of different stakeholders in the market . In the future it must engage members of the industry when making any changes and abstain from forcing its decisions onto the industry
代理主席，現時全球上市交易所都希望吸引更多新經濟企業上市。
Deputy President stock exchanges around the globe all want to induce more enterprises of the new economy to turn to them for listing
新經濟企業發展迅速，以Facebook為例，由零開始到在納斯達克上市集資1,000億美元，只是用了短短8年時間。
Enterprises of the new economy have been developing rapidly and in the case of Facebook for example it started all from scratch but has managed to raise US100 billion through listing on Nasdaq over a short span of only eight years
科技日新月異，難保第二間Facebook或第二間Google可能在兩三年後出現，如果香港希望吸引這些潛力優厚的新經濟企業來港上市，便更應該將注意力放在討論是否成立第三板或改革創業板上，設法搞活股票市場，不可以着眼於權力鬥爭，忽略市場發展的方向，這樣是只見樹木，而不見森林。
Technology is advancing rapidly and no one can tell whether another Facebook or Google will come into being two or three years later . If Hong Kong wants to attract such enterprises of the new economy with great potentials to list in Hong Kong it should focus its attention on discussing a third listing board or reforming the existing GEM for the revitalization of the local stock market . It must not focus on power struggle and ignore the trend of market development or it may fail to see the wood for the trees
我希望政府在制訂全面上市政策的議題上扮演積極的角色，要營造一個健康的市場，一個有序發展的營商環境，以及保障投資者。
I hope that the Government can play an active part in the issue of formulating a comprehensive listing policy with a view to fostering a healthy market and a business environment with orderly development and protecting investors
我們期望同心合力，鞏固及提升香港作為國際金融中心的地位，吸引更多資金流入香港股票市場，令股票市場長做長有，千萬不要殺了這隻"會生金蛋的鵝"。
We hope that all can be of one mind and join hands to strengthen and elevate Hong Kongs status as an international financial centre and attract more funds to flow into Hong Kongs stock market so that our stock market can develop on a sustainable basis . In any case please do not kill the goose that lays golden eggs
代理主席，我謹此陳辭，希望大家多多支持。
With these remarks Deputy President I look forward to Members strong support
張華峰議員，你是否已動議你的議案？
Mr Christopher CHEUNG have you moved your motion?
請動議你的議案。
Please move your motion
我動議印載於議程內的議案。
That the Securities and Futures Commission and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited SEHK are conducting a joint consultation on proposed enhancements to SEHKs decision - making and governance structure for listing regulation; proposals made in the consultation paper have aroused great controversies in the industry and there are views among others that the proposals once implemented will seriously disrupt the current listing process for companies and undermine the long - term development of the Hong Kong securities market; in this connection this Council urges the Government to after seriously listening to the views expressed by the industry on the consultation paper prudently formulate a comprehensive listing policy and clarify the definition of suitability for listing so as to ensure the healthy and orderly development of the Hong Kong securities market and while protecting the interests of investors actively promote financial innovation in order to enhance Hong Kongs status as an international financial centre and attract the investment of more Mainland and overseas capital in the Hong Kong securities market
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：張華峰議員動議的議案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the motion moved by Mr Christopher CHEUNG be passed
涂謹申議員要就這項議案動議修正案。
Mr James TO will move an amendment to this motion
本會現在就議案及修正案進行合併辯論。
This Council will now proceed to a joint debate on the motion and the amendment
代理主席，證券及期貨事務監察委員會及香港交易及結算所有限公司早前推出有關上市監管架構改革的聯合諮詢，引起市場很多爭議。
Deputy President the consultation concerning the reform of the governance structure for listing regulation jointly conducted by the Securities and Futures Commission SFC and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited SEHK some time ago has caused much controversies in the market
張華峰議員今天提出的議案的確很 重要。
The motion moved by Mr Christopher CHEUNG today is indeed very important
要提升香港上市監管政策及效率，關乎香港作為一個國際金融中心的監管制度能否打擊一些非法行為，同時亦要令國際投資者保持信心。
The enhancement of the governance structure for listing regulation and its effectiveness depends on whether or not the regulatory regime of Hong Kong an international financial hub can curb certain illegal activities and at the same time retain the confidence of international investors
政府曾在2003年建議把交易所上市科的監管權轉回證監會，但後來發展成為共同監管，以聯交所在前線向證監會緊密匯報，證監會保留否決權。
The Government had once suggested in 2003 that the regulatory power of the Listing Division of SEHK be delegated to SFC but later a joint regulatory framework was devised . SEHK would report frontline activities to SFC and SFC would retain its power of veto . However SEHK is a profit - making body which does listing businesses and hence achieves results
不過，聯交所是一個牟利機構，靠上市做生意業績，要它負責監管，難免有利益、角色的衝突，調查和檢控仍然需要證監會親自處理，大家都看到目前市場監管模式在本質上是有些問題的。
There will be inevitable conflicts of interest and role if it is tasked with regulating the market . Therefore SFC has to take charge of the investigation and prosecution work . Consequently everyone can see that the current market regulatory regime has a problem in essence
公共專業聯盟認為應以政策、市場發展為大方向。
The Professional Commons considers that the major direction should comprise policies and market growth
既然英、美都以證監會作全權監管模式，香港便不應將一半監管權給予牟利的聯交所負責，證監會又保留最後的審批、調查權力。
Since the stock market oversight authorities in the United Kingdom and the United States are playing the role as the sole supervisory authorities then half of the relevant power should not be vested in the profit - making SEHK while SFC retains the final approval and investigative powers
目前的監管機制明顯無法應對來自一些內地民企來港上市之後的一些問題，包括很多人利用香港上市的監管漏洞，提供由組織上市資產、申請上市到配對"殼股"新主所用的一條龍服務。
Apparently the present regulatory regime cannot deal with certain problems arising from the listing of mainland private enterprises in Hong Kong which include the exploitation of the regulatory loopholes of listing in Hong Kong such as the provision of one - stop service ranging from the arrangement of listed assets and application for listing to the allocation of shell company to the new owners
這的確已經成為新興的"啤殼行業"。
This has virtually created an emerging backdoor listing industry
上市的原意應該是令企業在公開市場籌集資金，支持業務正常發展，以及讓股東分享公司發展的回報。
The original intent of the current regime is to allow these corporations to raise funds in the market in order to support the normal growth of their businesses as well as to let shareholders to gain returns from the growth of these corporations
但是，這種"啤殼"出來的新股，很多都是堆砌的所謂生意，只是換取上市資格，然後炒作，根本不是想做好公司業務。
However as to many of these new shares invented by way of backdoor listing their businesses are nothing more than the making up of some false figures in order to trade for the listing eligibility and then they would engage in speculative activities . They simply do not want to engage in legitimate and proper business dealings
部分"殼股"上市不久就原形畢露，藉街貨流通量少而大肆炒作，結果造成很大波動，引股民上釣，很多人亦因而蒙受損失。
Some of these shell companies have their true faces revealed once they are listed . They heavily engaged in speculative activities due to a limited circulation of their shares in the market resulting in a huge fluctuation in price . Investors are lured to buy the shares and many have suffered losses subsequently because of this
問題在於這些公司過去兩年再注入一些新業務或資產，都會被視為新的上市公司，變相避開了本身的監管制度，衍生了一些漏洞。
The problem is that if these companies introduce new businesses or inject new assets they will be deemed new listed companies . This will virtually allow them to avoid the exiting regulatory regime and therefore new loopholes have derived from that
所以，例如"爛數"或難以解釋的股價大起大落的情況經常發生，而港交所及證監會已經不止一次被質疑辦事能力不足。
Therefore it is a common sight for bade debts or unexplainable wild fluctuations in stock prices are very frequent and the public have questioned SEHK and SFC have been questioned more than once for being incompetent
我們看到香港的新股質素恐怕是每況愈下，不少"殼股"上市之後出現監管的問題，好像空殼公司、反向收購、股價操縱、內幕交易。
We are afraid to see the steady deterioration in the quality of newly listed shares . Many regulatory problems concerning the shares of shell companies after these companies are listed such as the reverse takeover of shell companies stock price manipulation and insider trading
凡此種種明顯都是損害小股東的利益，長此下去只會損害投資者對投資新股的信心。
All of these have blatantly undermined the interest of minority shareholders . If things go on this way it will only undermine the confidence of investors in investing new shares
一旦誤墮"啤殼"的陷阱，散戶隨時可以血本無歸，而且死得不明不白。
If retail investors fall into the trap of backdoor listing they will lose every penny they have saved and they do not have a clue of what has caused the failure
證監會諮詢時提出的方案，包括在上市委員會之上成立新的上市監管委員會，負責審批複雜的案件，而新的上市委員會則負責制訂上市政策，以及評核聯交所上市科職員的表現。
It is proposed in SFCs consultation that a new Listing Regulatory Committee LRC to be established next to the Listing Policy Committee LPC which will streamline the processes for making important or difficult listing decisions . The new LPC will formulate listing policies and will conduct performance appraisals of staff of the Listing Division of SEHK
在上市政策委員會及上市監管委員會內的代表人數均等，而在建議之下，兩個委員會的主席都沒有決定投票權。
Since the number of representatives of LPC and LRC is the same it is therefore proposed that the chairpersons of the two committees will have no casting vote
有意見認為香港的上市監管制度傾斜於上市過程之中的既得利益者，目前上市委員會的組成之中，上市發行商及顧問等代表多於投資者的代表，反而在倫敦及紐約等其他金融中心，都是由監管機構審批上市公司。
There are views that the listing regulatory policies are skewed towards people having vested interests during the listing process . At present in the composition of the listing committee the number of listed issuers and advisers and so on is greater than the number of investor representatives . In contrast in other financial centres such as London and New York listed companies are all approved by their regulatory oversight authorities
涂謹申議員的修正案希望確保聯交所不會存在角色衝突、證監會加強與內地的監管，打擊跨境的內幕交易及披露信息的違規，提高透明度。
Mr James TOs amendment seeks to ensure that SEHK has no conflict of roles and that it will strengthen its cooperation with the Mainland regulatory authorities to combat any cross - boundary illegal activities and market misconduct especially in respect of the regulation of insider dealings and disclosure of information as well as the enhancement of the transparency of SFCs regulatory work
這些建議都是針對問題的核心，所以我支持涂謹申議員的修正案。
All of these proposals are targeting the core of the problem . For that reason I support Mr James TOs amendment
今次證監會及聯交所的改革建議有助提高上市程序的效率，加強上市過程的透明度，方向是正確的，但繼續容許聯交所保留話語權，是否真的可以達致改善上市的質素及透明度呢？
The reform proposal of SFC and SEHK this time around can help enhancing the efficiency and transparency of listing process thus the direction is correct . However can we really achieve the enhancement of listing quality and transparency if we continue to allow SEHK to retain its say?
如果成立上市監管委員會的目的，是要在作出重要上市決策的時候提高其獨立性，便應該加入更多不同背景的成員，而聯交所的行政總裁亦應該避免潛在的角色衝突。
If the objective of establishing LRC is to strengthen the independence in the course of making important listing decisions then more members of different backgrounds should be added . In the meantime the Chief Executive of SEHK should avoid the potential role conflict
這些委員的任命必須要有代表性，否則會令人覺得是"自己審自己"。
The membership must be adequately representative otherwise it will give people an impression that investigations are conducted by its own people
此外，如果委員會的意見分歧，將會以投票決定，這問題又應該如何解決？
Furthermore in case there are divided views among members and a decision will be made by way of the casting of ballots how should that problem be resolved?
最後我亦希望指出，熟悉香港金融服務及工作多年的業界人士都反映及批評財政司及財經事務及庫務局過去10多年，在推動金融改革方面都沒有提出新的大計，而在金融海嘯之後推出的例如證券電子化等項目都是無聲無息。
Lastly I wish to point out that people who know the financial service sector in Hong Kong well and people who have been in the trade for many years have criticized the Financial Secretary and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau for failing to launch innovative and major initiatives to promote financial reform over the past decade or more . Besides initiatives concerning electronic trading for securities and so on launched after the financial tsunami have all died down now
金融創新是推動香港金融地位的重要部分，不可拖延下去，亦不可以再說甚麼行之有效便算了。
Financial innovation is an important factor to strengthen the status of Hong Kong as a financial hub . Such initiatives should not be delayed and the Government should not only say that they have been working well all along and leave it at that
主席，謹此陳辭，支持涂議員的修正案。
With these remarks President I support the amendment of Mr James TO
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：附表納入本條例草案。
I now put the question to you and that is That the Schedule stand part of the Bill
《2016年消防條例草案》。
Fire Services Amendment Bill 2016
政府法案：二讀。

I now propose the question to you and that is That the Fire Services Amendment Bill 2016 be read the Second time
主席，在2014年，一名只有17歲，名叫馬拉拉的女子，成為有史以來最年輕的諾貝爾和平獎得主。
President in 2014 a 17 - year old girl by the name of Malala became the youngest ever Nobel Peace Laureate
有一次，武裝分子向馬拉拉開了3槍。
On one occasion the militants fired three shots at Malala
她受了重傷，幾乎喪失性命。
She was seriously injured and almost lost her life
事發時剛巧有國際傳媒在場，事件於是引起國際關注。
Incidentally some international media were at the spot when the incident happened and it aroused international concern
這位最年輕的諾貝爾和平獎得主犯了甚麼罪？
What sin has this youngest Nobel Peace Laureate committed?
如果今天她來香港，又會發生甚麼事？
If she came to Hong Kong now what would have happened?
主席，我覺得我們首先要承認，這個世界的確存在難民。
President we must first admit that refugees do exist in this world
香港是一個國際都會。
Hong Kong is a cosmopolitan city
去年，立法會秘書處擬備了一份"選定地方處理免遣返聲請的措施"的資料便覽，比較了香港、澳洲、英國及德國的情況。
Last year the Legislative Council Secretariat prepared a fact sheet on the Handling of non - refoulement claims in selected places comparing the situation in Hong Kong Australia the United Kingdom and Germany
究竟是我們的制度失敗，還是我們只是吸引"假難民"到來呢？
Has our system failed or do we only attract bogus refugees?
主席，我真的難以理解。
President I really find it hard to comprehend
主要的原則是"無錢過手"。
The important principle is they should have no extra money in their pockets
根據《釋義及通則條例》就延展於2016年11月9日提交本會省覽的《2016年海岸公園令》的修訂期限而動議的擬議決議案。
Proposed resolution under the Interpretation and General Clauses Ordinance to extend the period for amending the Marine Parks Designation Amendment Order 2016 which was laid on the Table of this Council on 9 November 2016
我現在請陳淑莊議員發言及動議議案。
I now call upon Ms Tanya CHAN to speak and move the motion
代理主席，我動議通過以我名義提出的議案，議案內容已載列於議程內。
Deputy President I move that the motion proposed under my name as printed on the Agenda be passed
在2016年11月11日的內務委員會會議上，議員決定成立一個小組委員會，研究《2016年海岸公園令》。
It was decided at the House Committee meeting on 11 November 2016 that a subcommittee be formed to study the Marine Parks Designation Amendment Order 2016
為了讓小組委員會有足夠時間研究該附屬法例，以及向內務委員會報告其審議結果，我謹以小組委員會主席的身份，動議將該項附屬法例的審議期限，延展至2017年1月11日。
To allow ample time for the Subcommittee to study the subsidiary legislation and report its deliberations to the House Committee I in my capacity as Chairman of the Subcommittee now moved that the scrutiny period for examining the subsidiary legislation be extended to 11 January 2017
代理主席，我謹請議員支持議案。
Deputy President I urge Members to support this motion
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：陳淑莊議員動議的議案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the motion moved by Ms Tanya CHAN be passed
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：陳淑莊議員動議的議案，予以通過。
I now put the question to you and that is That the motion moved by Ms Tanya CHAN be passed
反對的請舉手。
Those against please raise their hands?
主席，所謂"假難民"，顧名思義，本身根本不是受到酷刑對待的非法入境者，是一批濫用香港的法律援助、法律程序，藉以在香港"打黑工"的人。
President as the name implies bogus refugees are not illegal entrants who were subjected to torture but a group of people who abuse the legal aid and legal procedures of Hong Kong in order to take up illegal employment in Hong Kong
一些少數族裔朋友給我看他們在家鄉帶來的廣告單張，宣傳香港很容易找到工作，可獲得提供一條龍法律服務，加上有3,000多元生活津貼，每月隨時有超過1萬元收入。
Some ethnic minorities have shown me the advertising leaflets that they brought from their home countries which say that while it is very easy to find jobs in Hong Kong they can be provided with a package of legal services and a living allowance of more than 3,000 and they may thus earn more than 10,000 a month
這些廣告單張是一些少數族裔的朋友給我的，確有其事。
These advertising leaflets are given to me by my friends from ethnic minority groups and they are genuine
主席，我是九龍西的立法會議員，"假難民"問題的重災區，就是在尖沙咀、紅磡、土瓜灣；而第一批求助的個案，就是來自重慶大廈，該處接二連三發生很多罪案，有關居民希望立法會議員可以跟進。
President I am a Legislative Council Member representing Kowloon West and the hardest - hit areas of the bogus refugees problem are Tsim Sha Tsui Hung Hom and To Kwa Wan . The first batch of requests for assistance came from Chungking Mansions where a number of crimes occurred one after another and the residents concerned hope that Legislative Council Members can follow up this problem
因此，這並非只是資源的問題。
Therefore this is not only a matter of resources
政府在各方的壓力下，進行過一些工作，包括與難民的來源國一同加強打擊。
Under pressure from various aspects the Government has done some work including combating the problem together with the countries of origin of refugees
其實，民間也有採取行動，香港印度商會自發在家鄉反宣傳，反對這些宣傳廣告。
As a matter of fact some actions have also been taken in the community . The Indian Chamber of Commerce Hong Kong has taken the initiative to put up anti - propaganda counteracting these advertisements in the home country
政府亦在上一屆立法會會期末通過一項修訂，就是打擊"蛇頭"，最重判罰監禁14年。
At the end of the last legislative session an amendment proposed by the Government was passed against snakeheads to the effect that the maximum penalty is now imprisonment of 14 years
但是，我想對局長說，當誘因仍然存在的時候，這些"假難民"便會湧現不絕，香港治安仍然受到威脅。
However I want to tell the Secretary that when the incentives still exist bogus refugees will continue to flood in and the law and order of Hong Kong will still be jeopardized
