所以，我們經常說政府透過例如好像創新科技署......因為創新及科技局只有兩個部分而已，一個是創新科技署，幾乎只是"派錢"、成立基金資助，另一個便是政府內部的資訊科技政策，那個不是在這個總目內討論。
It is often said that the Innovation and Technology Bureau is made up of only two parts the Innovation and Technology Commission whose biggest function is to hand out cash and set up assistance funds and the Governments internal information technology policy which is not within the scope of discussion under this head
但是，政府內部的應用又如何呢？
However what about application of science and technology within the Government?
政府有否應用這些科技呢？
Has technology been applied by the Government?
是否在政策上有創新呢？
Has policy innovation been promoted?
這些一般都是欠奉或等了又等，結果同樣做不到，最後還是"派錢"。
Efforts in such aspects have not been seen or no achievements have been made after much waiting while handing out cash turns out to be its ultimate solution
所以，成立基金讓公司申請，當然，有些地方例如很多初創公司也能受惠，但很大程度是，說得俗一點便是"養不大"。
Hence although the setting up of funds for application by companies is surely effective in some areas which will benefit many start - up companies it is to a large extent very difficult to help these companies survive and develop into large enterprises
說回現時"總目155―政府總部：創新科技署"做的項目，最近仍然收到不少投訴或意見，特別有關......
Let me go back to talk about the projects currently under Head 155―Government Secretariat Innovation and Technology Commission . There are still numerous complaints or views about these projects recently especially because the Innovation and Technology Commission is mainly responsible for processing applications submitted under various funds
但是，問題是最近特別多亦因為疫情的關係很多公司便問為何現時的撥款申請，即是我成功申請基金，我所花的錢政府要撥回給我，為何審批那麼慢呢？
However the problem is becoming more serious lately especially as a result of the current epidemic many companies have queried the exceedingly long procedures involved for vetting and approving applications for funds
有些公司對我說，聘請數個人員，本來以往政府也要半年才撥款，試想一下，一個人的薪金數萬元，半年的薪金合共多少呢？
Some company operators told me that from past experience it often took the Government six months to complete the reimbursement procedures . For those companies which employ several employees with a monthly salary of several tens of thousands of dollars each we can just imagine the total amount of funding needed for meeting their salary expenditure for these six months
如果聘請了兩三個人員，那數目便很大了，但政府一直拖延。
It will cost the companies employing two or three employees a huge sum of money but the Government has simply been procrastinating
有時候政府資助公司，不能說是"幫你變成害你"，但有時候真的會變成連累你，令那些公司要拿着數百萬元的現金流來抵住政府欠他們的撥款，何必呢？
Although it is not fair to say that the Governments initiative to provide funding support to private companies has done harm rather than good to them it has indeed got them into trouble sometimes by making it necessary for them to have a cash flow of millions of dollars as advance expenditure before the Government reimburses the money to them
有些個案可能受疫情影響，政府一些部門的工作緩慢了當然這又是另一個問題，為甚麼政府連如此基本的"在家工作"也解決不到，沒理由吧？
Why should the matter be handled this way? . In some cases the delay was caused by a slow work process of some government departments perhaps due to the impact arising from the current epidemic . This is of course another problem and there is no reason why the Government cannot even resolve such a basic problem of making arrangements for civil servants to work from home
我所認識很多科技公司，由2月過年至今沒有返回辦公室工作的同事，仍然運作如常，為何香港政府做不到呢？
As far as I know the employees of many technology companies have been working from home since February after the Chinese New Year but these companies are still operating as usual so why is it not possible for the Hong Kong Government to do so?
第二，我最近聽到的，都是關乎這個總目：創新科技署的工作，就是在研發的定義問題。
Hence instead of offering assistance this will only restrict their development . Secondly from what I have heard recently about the work under this head the definition of research and development RD seems to have posed a problem
因為近期有些朋友對我說，似乎在一些文件中看到研發的定義。
According to some of my friends it seems that some documents have set out the definition of RD
研發的定義很重要，因為政府很多批出的基金，創新科技基金下的不同項目，以至研究員、博士、專才庫等項目，它不是撥款給他們聘請銷售人員做市場推廣，而是這些人員需要從事科研工作，但是，有些朋友向我反映，覺得科研的定義收緊了，是否一定要做一些比較基礎的研究、生物科技，才包括在內？
The definition of RD is very important because when it comes to the fundings approved by the Government for different projects under the Innovation and Technology Fund as well as projects relating to researchers and the Postdoctoral Hub etc they are not meant to be used for hiring sales personnel to perform marketing duties . Rather they should be spent on scientific research work . However I was told that the definition of scientific research work has been narrowed down and is it really the case that only some relatively basic researches or biotechnological researches will be covered?
須知道香港過往在科技發展一向做得比較好的範圍，反而是在應用方面，即使是開發一些產品，我們經常說R&D，R&D不單是指research，還有development。
It should be noted that as far as scientific and technological development is concerned Hong Kong has been doing a better job in the area of application and when it comes to products development we should bear in mind that apart from doing researches development is also a very important part in RD
不知是甚麼原因，為何會收緊，而不是放寬，讓大家再自由地進行研發，然後將這些產品推出市場，這才是善用投資、政府的資助，以及令市場受惠，令這些公司做到生意，不單是叫他們做基礎研究，而中間的開發應用方面卻斷層？
However due to unknown reasons the relevant definition was narrowed down rather than relaxed thus failing to put investment and the Governments funding to optimal use and benefit the market by promoting free research and development activities and putting the products developed on the market . There should be initiatives in place to ensure business opportunities for these companies which should not simply be asked to conduct basic researches when a gap is created in the application area
這個又是回到數年前的情況。
This will only bring us back to the situation we were facing a few years ago and why is this so?
當然，有部分可能是因為疫情影響或各種影響拖慢了，但到現在都未破1，大約0.9多一點而已，即看到去年一些最新數字，令我很擔心，如果今天局長或署長在立法會回答我這個問題，他會這樣回答：感謝立法會，前年通過了"超級扣稅"，所以企業可以受惠，可以利用扣稅進行多些研發，問題便解決了。
It is of course a fact that due to the impacts of the current epidemic or other reasons we have experienced some delay in this respect but the percentage has so far not yet risen to over 1 % and has remained at something above 0.9 % only . The latest figures last year do worry me a lot . If I raise a question about this in this Council today the Secretary or the Commissioner for Innovation and Technology will give me an answer like this We wish to express our gratitude to the Legislative Council for endorsing the proposal of introducing the super tax concession in the year before last and this has helped to resolve the problem by benefiting enterprises which can in turn invest more in research and development with the money saved from tax reduction
但是，不知大家是否知道？除了自動可以入選，即客戶找這些研發機構，例如政府研發機構及大學，這些能夠自動當選，有多少私人公司參加了這項計劃，申請成為私人認可的研發機構呢？
However although RD institutions identified by individual clients can be automatically included in the relevant scheme I wonder if Members are aware of the number of private institutions participating in the programme and applying to become accredited private RD institutions
不知其他議員同事是否知道？
Are fellow colleagues aware of the relevant figure?
搞了一年多，申請的公司可以申請，但直至今天，只有4間公司，包括一間大公司及3間初創公司。
The scheme has been introduced for more than one year for open applications but as of today applications have only been received from four institutions including a large company and three start - up companies
是否政府宣傳不足？
Is it due to insufficient promotion on the part of the Government?
會否可能是稅局過於嚴謹，太難申請呢？
Is it because the Inland Revenue Department has been too stringent in processing the applications received thus making things very difficult for applicants?
這是值得政府研究的。
The issue is worth exploring
對於今次的財政預算案，時間關係，我在這個環節未必可以說太多，我本來都想談及4個比較"落地"的政策，再談談我的意見，在今次的預算案當中是否足夠。
With regard to the Budget this year I may not be able to say too much in the current session due to time constraint . I originally wished to talk about four relatively more down - to - earth policies and express my views about whether they are adequate from the perspective of the Budget this year
如果我有機會再發言，或許我再陳述一下，對於預算案中的一些政策，我覺得創新科技署有何成效的問題。
If I have the opportunity to speak again I may speak a few more words on my opinions about the effectiveness of the Innovation and Technology Commission in taking forward some policies mentioned in the Budget
我想利用15分鐘的發言時間先討論總目155，再討論其他總目。
I wish to spend my 15 - minute speaking time discussing head 155 before other heads
總目155是關於創新科技署。
Head 155 concerns the Innovation and Technology Commission ITC
本年的財政預算案提出業界所倡議的"四大範疇 深化創科落地發展"。
The Budget of this year puts forth the idea of deepening local development of innovation and technology in four major areas as advocated by the industry
在4個範疇中，首3個與此總目有關，至於另一個範疇，我會留待明天或之後辯論有修正案的總目時才談論。
The first three of these four areas are related to this head . As for the other area I will leave my discussion on it until the debate on those heads with amendments tomorrow or later
第一，是支援企業應用科技。
The first area concerns the support given to enterprises for applying technologies
在四大範疇中，第三個是加大力度培育本地創科人才。
The third of the four major areas is the stepping up of efforts in nurturing local innovation and technology talents
審計署今天發表了審計署署長第七十四號報告書，其中一個篇章正正關乎僱員再培訓局。
Today the Audit Commission published the Director of Audits Report No . 74 . One of its chapters is precisely dedicated to the Employees Retraining Board ERB
有一間全球著名的網上培訓機構，其培訓課程均來自全球多間一流大學。
There is a world - renowned online training institution whose training courses all come from various first - class universities around the world
他們表示，由於疫情關係，在本年內，只要政府部門必須是政府部門，不能個人與他們聯絡，有意為失業人士提供有關課程，該機構可以免費提供課程。
They have said that owing to the epidemic as long as any government departments―it must be government departments but not individuals―approach them within this year and indicate their intention to offer the relevant courses to unemployed people the institution can provide their courses free of charge
學費本來可能動輒數千元甚或數千美元，因為是一流大學的課程。
Initially their tuition fees may cost a few thousand Hong Kong dollars or even a few thousand US dollars because their courses come from first - class universities
很多外國政府已願意承擔。
Many overseas governments have agreed to take up this matter
不過，此事必須由政府促成，因為沒有理由要求商業機 構承擔，而他們亦只相信政府。
But the actualization of this matter must depend on the Government because there is no reason to shift the responsibility to commercial organizations . And they only trust the Government
在職培訓方面，我已提出意見多年。
Speaking of on - the - job training I have put forth my views over all these years
可惜的是，政府仍然沿用舊方法，說道已設有再培訓局和基金等，可以解決所有問題。
Regrettably the Government adheres to the previous approach all the same and argues that the ERB and CEF now in place can already solve all problems
早於去年8月，已有報道指美國有不同部門關注將電纜接駁至香港所構成的國家安全問題。
As early as August last year it was already reported that various departments in the United States were concerned about the national security problems posed by the connection of a cable line to Hong Kong
在1月時的資訊科技及廣播事務委員會會議上，我已向當局提出質詢，當時官員的答覆是"一切如常"。
At a meeting of the Panel on Information Technology and Broadcasting in January I already raised a question with the authorities . At the time the official concerned replied to this effect Everything is as usual
我及後才發現，局方並沒有向該兩間美國公司或股東查詢，只詢問了承辦商，即正在挖掘海床敷設海底電纜的承辦商。
Later on I discovered that the authorities had not raised any enquiries with those two American corporations or shareholders and they had only asked the contractor―the contractor that was excavating the seabed to lay the submarine cable lines
主席，今天的合併辯論是就着沒有修正案的42個總目的款額納入附表，但由於總目眾多，我們只能選擇其中數個來討論。
Chairman this joint debate today is on the sums for the 42 heads with no amendment standing part of the Schedule . Since there are many heads we can only choose a few for discussion
我一直很留心聆聽議員在討論不同議題時發表的意見，其中鄺俊宇議 員發言後期提到幾句話，他說作為民選議員，有責任說出市民、老百姓的聲音，以及很多努力生存的香港人的普世價值。
I have been listening attentively to the views of Members when discussing various subject matters . Mr KWONG Chun - yu said at the latter part of his speech that as a directly elected legislator he was obliged to reflect the voice of the citizens and the general public as well as the universal values of many Hong Kong people who were working hard to survive
很多香港人希望重拾數十年、一百年所建設得來的法治社會，香港是一個安全、和平、安寧、幸福的社會，一個真正享有言論自由、經濟自由的社會。
Many Hong Kong people want to resurrect the law - abiding society that was built up in the past few decades or even the last century . Hong Kong used to be a safe peaceful society free from worry and full of happiness . It used to be a society which genuinely enjoyed freedom of speech and a free economy
但是今天，香港確實出現了"攬炒派"。
But today it is true that the mutual destruction camp has emerged in Hong Kong
換言之，只要他們取得議會過半數議席，香港就會癱瘓，立法會亦不能開會，處理緊急醫療、公營醫療、公共教育、綜援、長者生活津貼等問題，更遑論我們提到的其他抗疫撥款。
In other words only if they can take over half of the Council seats Hong Kong will be paralysed and the Legislative Council will be unable to convene any meeting to deal with urgent issues in relation to health care services public health care public education CSSA or Old Age Living Allowance not to mention the funding applications for the Anti - epidemic Fund
因此，他們由我當年認識的泛民主派，後來變成了反對派，甚麼事情也要反對，以至變成"攬炒派"。
Hence they have changed from the pro - democratic camp that I recognized back then to the opposition camp which opposed to whatever proposal from the Government and then to the mutual destruction camp now
明天是公眾假期，但很多市民說不敢乘港鐵出外，因為網上已有人說會放炸彈。
Tomorrow is a public holiday but many people say that they dare not go out by taking MTR because there is already a message on Internet that bombs will be set tomorrow . This is not the Hong Kong that Hong Kong people are familiar with
這並非香港人認識的香港，這亦不是現時努力生存的香港市民想說的聲音，他們很希望議員說反對暴力。
This is also not the voice of those Hong Kong citizens who are working very hard to survive . They very much hope that Members can say no to violence . No matter how dissatisfied we are with the Government we have to oppose violence
即使對政府有多麼不滿，我們要反對暴力，無論政府做得多麼差勁，在恐怖主義面前，我們願意不分政見，全力以赴，堵截恐怖主義的延伸，這是市民想聽到的說話，這是香港的核心價值，我們要的是法治社會。
No matter how bad the Governments performance is in the face of terrorism we are willing to make an all - out effort regardless of our political views in blocking the spread of terrorism . This is what the public want to hear and is the core value of Hong Kong . What we want is a society that upholds the rule of law
因為他們一直說新聞自由及言論自由，他們也要給我們一個平衡的表述，這些就是老百姓想我們說的話，老百姓就是聽到他們 說了數小時，希望我們說回老百姓想說的話。
They also need to give us an opportunity to air some balanced views or the voice of the general public who want us to express here . The general public after listening to them for a few hours wish that we can convey their voice
因此，我認為無論是港台或是聯合國，它們要表達對香港的意見，可以表達，但要持平，最重要的是，要一併詢問那些受害人和家屬，有一些人已喪生，要一併詢問他們的家屬才能表達一個公平及持平的意見。
Hence in my opinion when RTHK or the United Nations wants to express its views on Hong Kong it is free to do so but that it has to be impartial . Most importantly it has to consult the victims and their family members . Since some people have lost their lives it also needs to consult their family members before it can express any fair and impartial views
由2014年至2019年的騷亂案件，再加上有成千上萬宗酷刑聲請者案件積壓在法庭，我希望司法機構真的切實想想，必須增加資源及以開放思維吸納更多暫委法官，以處理這一大堆案件，因為香港社會正等待法庭給予一個終審判決，究竟法治的底線在哪裏？
Apart from the social unrest cases from 2014 to 2019 the courts also have to deal with a backlog of tens of thousands of torture claims . I hope that the Judiciary can really consider with an open mindset how to practically increase resources and appoint more deputy judges and judicial officers in order to deal with this huge backlog of cases . It is because the Hong Kong society is waiting for a final judgment from the court which can help illustrate where the bottom line of the rule of law lies
不要把如此重要的案件拖延5年這麼久，佔中的案件仍然在審理中，騷亂案件又正在排期，那些酷刑聲請者案件又在積壓。
The trial of such important cases should not be procrastinated for five years . The courts are still hearing the Occupy Central cases but while the social unrest cases are pending to be heard there is also a backlog of torture claims
其實，公義的延遲就是剝奪公義，主席。
In fact justice delayed is justice denied Chairman
我希望法院再次聽到，並切實考慮我們的建議，要設立一個專責法庭，最好便是學習英國當年的24小時審訊安排；而且談到司法機構撥款，不要只談加薪關於加薪要求，其實我們很多時也會批准不要只以加薪來吸納法官，因為吸納法官不單靠加薪，等於議員的薪金其實也不多......
I wish that the courts can again hear and practically consider our proposal of setting up a dedicated court . It is best to learn from the experience of the United Kingdom where certain courts operated 24 hours a day to hear the cases back then . As regards funding to the Judiciary we should not merely consider a pay rise―concerning the requests for increased remuneration actually they will usually be endorsed by us―do not recruit judges through increased remuneration only as we should not merely resort to a pay rise in the recruitment of judges
局長，加薪不能挽留人才，一定要有對香港的心，要公平及公正地審訊，維護法治。
Similarly the remuneration of Members is actually not hefty Secretary talents cannot be retained simply by increased remuneration . The judges concerned must be committed to Hong Kong must be fair and impartial in the hearings and must defend the rule of law
我很希望司法機構能真正落力吸納人手，不要採用如此被動和消極的方式。
I very much hope that the Judiciary can genuinely do its utmost to recruit manpower without resorting to such passive and negative means
香港社會很痛苦，不能無限期地等一些重要判決，審來審去仍未有判決，無論結果如何，我認為由法院來審訊始終是處理我們社會紛爭最文明的方式。
The Hong Kong society is in pain and cannot wait indefinitely for certain important judgments which seem to be still far away from us . No matter the outcome I think court hearings are still the most civilized way to deal with our social conflicts
港台是一個政府部門，又是公營機構，這其實代表政府擁有一支很好的"民情探熱針"，但政府卻因為不喜歡這支探熱針而逼迫它。
RTHK is a government department and also a public service institution . It actually is an excellent thermometer of public opinions . But the Government persecutes RTHK because it dislikes this thermometer
港台為政府拍下真相，記錄人民與政府衝突的真象，但因為警隊不喜歡被人記錄，便把一個政府部門記錄的真相，看成是挑戰警權。
RTHK records the truth for the Government . It truthfully records the conflicts between the people and the Government . However the Police Force did not want their enforcement actions to be recorded
如果政府不重視社會脈搏，它的施政自然"堅離地"。
If the Government disregards the importance of taking the pulse of society its policies will not be realistic
政府施政一旦"堅離地"，便代表政府的腦袋空白一片，在它的心中沒有人民，只想着侍奉權貴。
If government policies are unrealistic it shows that the Government does not have any ideas as to what to do nor does it have its people in mind . It also shows that the Government only cares about serving the powerful and the rich
電視廣播有限公司自從2015年有親中人士進入其架構後，它的公信力每況愈下，其營運狀態亦一直面對低潮，但政府有否作出檢討呢？
RTHK will then become a useless organ . Since the joining of pro - China figures to its management in 2015 the credibility of the Television Broadcasts Limited has been on the decline and its business at a low ebb . Has the Government ever reviewed the operation of this broadcaster?
政府即使花費大筆金錢，在《大公報》及《文匯報》頭版刊登全頁廣告，是否就可有幫政府把信息傳播給全香港市民呢？
Even if the Government spends a large sum of money on a full front - page advertisement in Ta Kung Pao or Wen Wei Po the advertisement cannot help spread the message to all Hongkongers for the Government
這才是問題的核心。
This is the crux of the problem
其實，如果政府可以相信的士司機、導遊和領隊申領津貼所填報的工作紀錄，那麼失業人士自然也可以提供他們過往的工作紀錄，告訴政府他們需要江湖救急，希望獲得失業援助，以應付疫情下的需要，這有多大困難呢？
In fact if the Government trusts that taxi drivers tourist guides and tour escorts will provide in good faith their work records it should also trust that people who are unemployed will do the same so that they can tell the Government that they need urgent help to deal with the epidemic because of unemployment . How difficult is it?
我不是要跟局長討論設立全面失業保障機制，純粹是在江湖救急的情況下，政府可否再多做一點？
I am not asking the Secretary to establish a comprehensive unemployment protection mechanism . I am only asking the Government whether it is willing to do a little more to provide urgent help
我暫且相信局長所說的理由成立，利用綜援機制，放寬門檻來幫助這些失業人士，並預視申請人數會上升。
Let us say that I temporarily agree with the Secretarys justification and that is the Government can assist the unemployed through the CSSA mechanism with relaxed requirements . Then I expect that the number of applicants will increase
但是，這個上升會為部門帶來很大工作壓力，不要忘記，在今時今日的疫情下，各種困難都會存在。
This will then bring heavy workload to SWD . Do not forget that all sorts of difficulties may appear under the present epidemic
從類別角度來說，相應用於社署的行政費，自然高於新增一個類別來處理失業人士江湖救急需要所耗用的行政費。
In terms of administrative cost it is more expensive to process the unemployment assistance applications by SWD than creating a new category to deal with the applications
試問政府這種態度，如何解開當前的社會死結呢？
How could this attitude of the Government break the present deadlock in society? . Hence I need to point out the phenomena of these two departments . An idea dawned on me after listening to the response of the public officer this morning
變成"林鄭"所說般，中聯辦對於香港社會和特區政府的日常事務，都可以提出意見和監督。
The outcome is like what Carrie LAM said that LOCPG can comment on and supervise the daily matters of Hong Kong and the SAR Government
如果是這樣，香港如何能夠施行真正的"一國兩制"？
If so how could Hong Kong implement the genuine form of one country two systems?
如何能夠在《基本法》下兌現"港人治港"、"高度自治"呢？
How could we realize the principle of Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong and a high degree of autonomy under the Basic Law?
失去了這個基本概念，香港如何能夠為國家作出貢獻？
Without this fundamental concept how could Hong Kong contribute to our country?
主席，在過去一段時間，面對疫情及由去年年中一直進行的反修例社會運動，可以逐漸看到特區政府、中央政府和建制派將種種問題歸咎於抗爭者，指抗爭者提出"攬炒"之說，影響政府施政。
Chairman Over the past period of time in the face of the current epidemic as well as the social movement against the proposed amendments of the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance which has been going on since the middle of last year the SAR Government the Central Government and the pro - establishment camp have gradually resorted to laying the blame for the many problems on protesters criticizing them for putting forward the idea of mutual destruction and undermining the governance of the Government
但是，我想指出如社會人士給予特區政府的評分只得2分左右，給予特首的評分亦只屬個位數，究竟誰才真正在"攬炒"呢？
However I would like to point out that if a score of only around 2.0 is given to the SAR Government by the general public and the score given to the Chief Executive has also fallen to a single digit who is actually the one seeking mutual destruction?
答案是特區政府，因為它不聽民意，不理會整體社會對政府施政的看法，一意孤行。
It is the SAR Government which has turned a deaf ear to public opinions ignored the overall views of the community on the governance of the Government and insisted on having its own way
是建制派和保皇黨，因為他們看見政府走上一條死路，卻仍推波助瀾，一直給予支持，令社會運動無法停息......
The pro - establishment camp and the royalist camp have done so because despite seeing the Government go into a dead end they still offer their encouragement and support making it not possible to pacify the social movement
我首先會就"總目160─香港電台"發言。
I will first speak on Head 160―Radio Television Hong Kong
港台在這段日子裏，尤其是在新聞製作方面，確實能發揮公營廣播機構的角色，堅守專業操守，走在最前線報道真相，真的無畏無懼。
During all this time RTHK can actually fulfil its roles as a public broadcaster and report the truth at the forefront in strict compliance with its professionalism especially in its news production
他們沒有經濟及市場壓力，即使其大老闆政府在多方面對他們看不順眼，他們亦無畏無懼，繼續勇往直前。
They are really dauntless . They are not under any financial and market pressure . Even though their boss―the Government―sees them as an eyesore in many respects they have remained dauntless and kept moving forward courageously
過往，港台只是播放電台節目的電台，只有電視部製作的節目會在免費電視台上播放。
In the past RTHK was merely a radio station that aired radio programmes and only the programmes produced by its Television Unit would be broadcast on free television channels
我希望藉此讓港台的同工朋友明白，很多香港市民皆支持和關心他們。
I hoped this could enable all RTHK staff to realize that many Hong Kong people supported and cared about them
他們的加班時數是5,492小時。
Their number of overtime hours stood at 5 492
我要多謝港台的朋友。
I must say Thank you to the RTHK staff
至於受傷人數方面，有20名前線人員受傷，大部分均是被警察或親政府人士襲擊而受傷。
As for the number of injuries 20 frontline workers were injured and most of them sustained injuries due to the attacks perpetrated by police officers or pro - government individuals
他們長期加班，不少器材受損，更要面對警察的無理指嚇和侮辱，指他們為"黑記"，更不時推撞他們，在採訪期間受到襲擊。
They had to work overtime for prolonged periods and a lot of their equipment was also damaged . Worse still they even had to face unreasonable intimidation and insults from the Police and they were stigmatized as bad journalists . Even worse they were jostled from time to time and attacked in the course of reporting
港台英文台有記者當天在北角我自己亦身在附近被"福建幫"毆打，其後報警。
That day a journalist from RTHKs English channel was beaten up by Fujian gangsters in North Point―I was also nearby―and he made a report to the Police afterwards
