因為這樣會阻礙聾人融入主流社會。
Because people think that the use of sign language will obstruct the integration of deaf persons into the mainstream community
這是很舊的想法，是要求殘障人士來符合主流社會的要求。
This is an out - dated idea which requires persons with disabilities to adapt to the requirement of the mainstream community
今天梁耀忠議員便是要當局承認手語。
Today Mr LEUNG Yiu - chung aims precisely to ask the authorities to recognize sign language
何謂官方語言呢？
What is an official language?
就是承認，而非法定語言。
It is just about recognition and different from a statutory language
法定語言是所有政府文件必須採用的語言，具有法律效力，但官方的意思，只是在官方溝通方面，在適當的情況下，應該提供手語的服務。
A statutory language is a language that all government documents must use under the law . But making sign language an official language only means the provision of sign language service in official communications where necessary and appropriate
正如《殘疾人權利公約》第二十一條所指，作為締約國或締約地區，我們有責任推動手語的使用。
Under Article 21 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities we as a signatory shall have the responsibility to promote the use of sign languages
但是，今天我們連電視台都沒有提供手語翻譯，在推行的階段還是慢慢來，這些根本是"放水"，全不注重。
However at present even our television stations do not provide any sign language interpretation . Our process of promoting sign language is still very slow . This is downright connivance and total disregard
代理主席，我謹此陳辭，支持梁耀忠議員的議案。
With these remarks Deputy President I support Mr LEUNG Yiu - chungs motion
主席，梁振英先生於2012年3月當選為行政長官。
President Mr LEUNG Chun - ying was elected Chief Executive CE in March 2012
該協議訂明，梁先生除了在收購完成的兩年內不會向戴德梁行挖角或與之競爭之外，在推動UGL集團和戴德梁行集團的業務方面，他會按UGL提出的合理要求不時提供協助，包括擔任推薦人及顧問。
The agreement stipulated that within two years upon completion of the acquisition apart from not poaching any people from or competing with DTZ Mr LEUNG would in promoting the business of the UGL Group and the DTZ Group provide assistance from time to time which included acting as referee and adviser in accordance with the reasonable requests made by UGL
梁先生在出任行政長官後的首兩年按該協議共收取了400萬英鎊酬金，但他一直沒有就此向行政會議秘書申報與該協議有關的個人利益。
Mr LEUNG received under the agreement a remuneration of £4 million in total in the first two years after his taking the office of CE but he had all along failed to declare his interests relating to the agreement to the Clerk to the Executive Council ExCo
在傳媒於2014年10月披露上述協議後，有公眾質疑行政長官的做法涉及利益衝突，而他沒有申報個人利益屬公職人員行為失當。
Upon revelation of the aforesaid agreement by the media in October 2014 some members of the public queried that such practice of CE involved a conflict of interests and his failure to declare the interests constituted a misconduct in public office
政府回應該等質疑時指出：i該協議在梁先生上任前已簽訂；協議設有避免利益衝突條款，即他只會在不構成任何利益衝突的情況下，才會向UGL提供上述協助；UGL未有要求他提供任何服務；以及他從來沒有向UGL提供任何服務。
In response to such queries the Government pointed out that i the agreement had been entered into before Mr LEUNG took office; ii the agreement contained a clause providing for the avoidance of conflict of interests ie . he would provide the aforesaid assistance to UGL only under the situation that such assistance would not create any conflict of interests; iii UGL had not requested him to provide any services; and iv he had never provided any services to UGL
現時政治委任官員的申報制度規定，各級政治委任官員必須具體申報他們在任何公司持有的投資、股份、直接或間接擁有的利益；擔任任何公司的董事、東主或合夥人身份；以及如有參與私人公司事務的詳情。
The current declaration system for PAOs requires PAOs of all ranks to declare their investment shareholding direct or indirect interest in any company; their directorships proprietorships or partnerships in any company; and if any the specific details concerning their participation in any private companys affairs
各級政治委任官員也須申報其以個人名義擁有；或以其配偶、子女或其他人士、代理人或公司名義但實際由其擁有的投資和利益；或他們擁有受益人權益的投資及權益。
They are also required to declare any investment and interest held by themselves or in the name of their spouses children or other persons agents or companies but are actually acquired on their account or in which they have a beneficial interest
各級政治委任官員按照《政治委任制度官員守則》的規定申報的投資和利益，亦以訂明表格的方式存放在各個有關的辦公室或政策局的網站上，供公眾查閱。
According to the requirements of the Code for Officials under the Political Appointment System the Code investments and interests declared by PAOs of all ranks in the prescribed form are made available on the websites of the respective officesbureaux for public inspection
有關的申報須每年更新。
Such declarations will be updated annually
此外，《守則》亦規定政治委任官員在執行公職時，如個人利益可能會影響，或被視為會影響他們的判斷，均須向行政長官報告。
Moreover the Code also requires that PAOs shall report to the Chief Executive any private interests that might influence or appear to influence their judgment in the performance of their duties
政治委任官員亦須避免處理有實際利益衝突或潛在利益衝突的個案。
PAOs shall refrain from handling cases with actual or potential conflict of interest as well
行政會議方面，亦對所有成員設有嚴謹而行之有效的利益申報制度，目的是為確保行政會議成員向行政長官提供意見時公正無私和不偏不倚。
For the ExCo it has put in place a rigorous and well - established system for declaration of interests for all ExCo Members . This is to ensure that unbiased and impartial advice is offered by ExCo Members to the Chief Executive
該制度主要分為兩個部分。
The declaration system mainly comprises two parts
第一部分是定時定期的申報。
The first part is regular declarations
每位行政會議成員均須在就任時和其後每年申報個人利益，申報內容包括a受薪董事職位；b受薪工作、職位、行業、專業等；c如上述兩項的利益包括因行政會議成員身份所提供的個人服務，則須申報服務對象的姓名或名稱；d成員在香港或其他地區擁有的土地及物業；e成員本人或連同其配偶或子女、或代表其配偶或子女持有公司或其他團體的實益股份；以及f理事會、委員會或其他機構的成員身份。
On first appointment and annually thereafter each ExCo Member should declare their personal interests and the declaration includes a remunerated directorships; b remunerated employments offices trades profession and so on; c if the interests in the above two items include provision to clients of personal services which arise out of or relate in any manner to Members position as ExCo Members the clients names should be declared; d land and property owned by Members in or outside Hong Kong; e names of companies or bodies in which Members have either themselves or with or on behalf of their spouses or children a beneficial interest in shareholdings; and f membership of boards committees or other organizations
此外，行政會議成員須以保密形式向行政長官申報更詳細的財務利益，包括成員本人或連同配偶或子女或其他近親所持有的公司股份，以及期貨或期權合約。
In addition ExCo Members should declare to the Chief Executive on a confidential basis and in greater detail their financial interests including shareholdings in companies as well as futures and options contracts held by themselves or jointly with their spouses children or other close relatives
申報制度的第二部分是就個別行政會議討論的事項作出申報。
The second part of the declaration system is declarations in respect of individual items discussed by the ExCo
每位行政會議成員均負個人責任，檢視行政會議所審議的事項是否涉及其個人利益，並在行政會議討論有關項目前作出申報。
It is the personal responsibility of every ExCo Member to examine whether heshe has an interest in any item discussed by the ExCo and declare it before the ExCo discussion
按照行政會議的保密原則，政府素來不會披露行政會議的討論內容，以及相關的利益申報。
In line with the principle of confidentiality of the ExCo the Government does not disclose the content of ExCo discussions or the related declarations of interests
至於公務員方面，在職公務員均須遵守規管其品行的政府規例、規則、通告及部門訓令，政府有既定機制處理公務員申報利益和相關紀律事宜。
All serving civil servants are subject to the Government Regulations Rules Circulars and Departmental Instructions that govern their conduct . The Government has established mechanisms to handle declaration of interests by civil servants and related disciplinary matters
任何人士在獲受聘為公務員後，便須跟隨有關規定。
Any person who has been appointed as a civil servant is required to observe the related requirements
如有證據顯示有公務員涉嫌違規或不當行為，當局會按照既定程序作出跟進，包括採取適當的行政或紀律行動。
If there is evidence that a civil servant has misconducted himself appropriate action including administrative or disciplinary action will be taken against him in accordance with the established procedures
此外，無論是政治委任官員、行政會議成員或公務員，均需依從相關規定。
Furthermore PAOs ExCo Members and civil servants are all required to abide by the relevant requirements
廉政公署必定會不偏不倚、嚴謹執法，根據既定程序處理每一宗針對公職人員涉嫌違法行為的舉報和案件。
The Independent Commission Against Corruption will enforce the law impartially and strictly and handle all reports and cases against public officers suspected of committing an illegal act in accordance with the established procedures
其他公職人員可否引用這4項條件，即他們如在擔任公職前與私人機構簽訂協議，便可一邊出任公職，一邊收取數以百萬計，甚至數以千萬計的利益？
Can other public officers also invoke these four conditions? . I mean can they receive millions or tens of millions of dollars while holding office under an agreement with a private organization entered into before they took office?
這是因為，如果回應......
It is because if the response
主席，我剛才的主體答覆的重點，是關於現行3類公職人員的申報制度，以及避免利益衝突的安排等，而林卓廷議員提出的質詢的核心，則是關乎所謂離職協議的問題。
President the key point in my main reply concerns the existing declaration systems for three types of public officers and arrangements for avoidance of conflict of interests and so on while the core of Mr LAM Cheuk - tings question is about so - called resignation agreements
至於政治委任官員和行政會議成員，正如我剛才所說，在現行申報制度下，對於投資、擁有的物業和股份，或任職某些機構的成員等，他們均要作出定期申報。
With respect to politically appointed officials PAOs and Members of the Executive Council ExCo as I have pointed out just now under the current declaration system they are required to regularly declare investments property and shares held by them or their membership of certain organizations and so on
主席，除了政治任命官員和行政會議成員外，其實很多公務員同樣會接觸機密和敏感資料，特別是首長級公務員。
President apart from PAOs and ExCo Members many civil servants directorate civil servants in particular also have access to classified and sensitive information . The Secretary used to be a civil servant as well
我剛才在主體答覆已約略提到，不過我也感謝議員的提問，我可具體說明兩三點。
I have already mentioned this briefly in the main reply just now but I still thank Member for the question . I can specify a few more points
總言之，公務員一旦作出相關投資，便要在7天內申報，以幫助當局審核所有申報，以及採取適當的管理或防範措施。
In a nutshell civil servants have to declare within seven days once they make such investments so as to facilitate the authorities examination of all declarations and adoption of appropriate management or preventive measures
此外，如果有關投資名義上由公務員配偶或受委託的其他代理人或公司持有，但實際上由公務員以自己資本擁有的話，他亦需要申報。
Moreover declarations are also required if civil servants actually have beneficial interests in investments held in the name of their spouse or other trusted agents or companies
最後，除所有首長級公務員外，對於公務員隊伍最高職位的人員，特別是常任秘書長等，我們更設有額外申報規定。
Finally apart from all directorate civil servants top civil servants such as Permanent Secretaries are also subject to extra declaration requirements
他們獲委任時及以後每年，也要登記他們擁有的地產和房地產、他們的公司東主、合夥人/董事身份，以及任何上市公共或私人公司發行股本1%或以上股權的資料，供市民查閱。
On first appointment and annually thereafter they have to register for public access information such as real estate and property owned by them their proprietorships partnershipsdirectorships and shareholdings of 1 % or more of the issued share capital in any listed public or private company
我們相信，這些適用於高級公務員的利益申報制度行之有效，應能夠應對這方面的關注。
We believe that the system for declaration of interests applicable to top civil servants is effective in addressing concerns in this respect
在部門首長考慮時，最主要會一併考慮到，外間工作不能影響公務員本身的工作。
When giving consideration Heads of Departments will focus on maintaining that the outside work will not affect the official duties of the civil servants concerned
但有時候，有些公務員同事在外間的工作是義務或服務社會性質，例如有些同事在工作崗位以外，在某些機構擔任義務工作，或在所屬教會擔任執事等工作。
However in some cases some civil servants take part in voluntary or community service outside such as participating in voluntary work in certain organizations beyond their official duties or taking up roles as executives in their churches
局長剛才提到要求公務員全心全意服務市民。
Secretary has just mentioned the requirement for civil servants to serve the public wholeheartedly
主席，習近平主席也表示要打擊貪腐，但我們的特首及司局長竟然可以受一份協議約束，繼續收取利益而可能要履行一些責任，而在本港制度下，他們竟然甚至不用申報。
President when even President XI Jingping announces his fight against corruption our Chief Executive Secretaries of Departments and Directors of Bureaux can be allowed to keep on receiving interests and possibly fulfil certain responsibilities under an agreement . They even do not have to declare this under the system in Hong Kong
現任特首是否希望香港的制度差於內地？
Does the incumbent Chief Executive wish Hong Kong to have a system worse than that in the Mainland?
在整個國家都希望走向繁榮、富強、實踐"中國夢"的時候，香港竟然走回頭路，採取較低標準，連這樣的情況都不用申報。
The whole country is aspiring to prosperity strength and the manifestation of the Chinese Dream yet Hong Kong chooses to go backward and adopt a lower standard in which no declaration is required even under such circumstances
這怎對得起香港市民，甚至國家的發展呢？
Will this not let Hong Kong people down or even not let the countrys development down?
主席，首先我必需指出，涂謹申議員套用到"包庇"二字在我身上，是比較嚴重的指控，我提議大家互相尊重，如果沒有實質證據，在新一年，議員沒必要在這些場合使用這些字眼。
President first of all I must point out that the word harbour applied by Mr James TO on me is a rather serious accusation . I suggest we should respect each other . In the new year Members do not have to use such words in this occasion without any substantiated proof
至於行政長官的個案，政務司司長過往在議會亦曾詳細回應議員的相關質詢，行政長官辦公室亦多次發表聲明。
With regard to the incident involving the Chief Executive the Chief Secretary for Administration did respond to relevant questions from Members in detail in the Council before and the Office of the Chief Executive also issued numerous statement in this respect before
但情況是，政務司司長在本會作出回應的時候，提到梁先生在當選行政長官後，他不會亦不應該向相關公司UGL提供有關協助，而事實上，在議員剛才所提到的協議簽訂之後，正如UGL的聲明所指，梁先生從來沒有向UGL提供任何服務。
However the Chief Secretary for Administration mentioned in her reply given in this Council that Mr LEUNG would not and should not offer relevant assistance to UGL the company concerned after his was elected Chief Executive . As a matter of fact after the agreement mentioned by Members just now was entered into Mr LEUNG had never provided any services to UGL same as what the company had pointed out in its statement
再廣而推之，我贊同涂謹申議員所說，除了公務員外，政治委任的司局長亦必須全心全意，在本身的工作崗位服務市民，這是《守則》開宗明義提到的，所有司局長、副局長及政助都會嚴守這個原則。
If we see this from a wider perspective I agree with Mr James TO that apart from civil servants politically appointed Secretaries of Departments and Directors of Bureaux should also serve the public wholeheartedly in their official positions . This is a requirement stipulated expressly in the beginning of the Code which will be strictly observed by all Secretaries of Departments Directors of Bureaux Under Secretaries and Political Assistants
主席，局長沒有回答的是，特首及司局長繼續收取利益，並受制於協約而要履行責任，但現時的標準是，他們不需要申報，當中的道理何在？
President the Secretary has not answered the query about the logic behind the standard adopted at this moment in which the Chief Executive Secretaries of Departments and Directors of Bureaux are not required to declare any interests they continuously receive and the responsibilities they have to fulfil under an agreement
主席，申報有兩種，一種是定期申報，主要圍繞投資利益、房地產、股票，以及擔任公職以外其他董事或理事等職份，他們所作出的申報，並就此公布。
President there are two kinds of declarations . The first one is regular declarations mainly concerning investments real estate shares and directorships or membership of committees other than their official positions and so on . This is about declarations made and published in this respect
但是，另一種申報是處理每件政策或事情的時候，如果與私人利益有潛在或可能出現利益衝突，他們是需要根據機制申報，而機制當中，對是否需要避免利益衝突設有安排，即關乎避嫌的情況，包括不發出文件、不處理該項工作而交由其他同事處理。
Another kind of declaration is about the potential or possible conflict of interests between their personal interests and individual policies or issues handled by them . In this case they have to make declarations under the mechanism . Arrangements under the mechanism regarding avoidance of conflict of interests include measures for avoidance of suspicion such as not issuing documents to officials concerned withdrawing from and passing the duties in question to other officers instead
後者是存在於政府的機制中，過往大家看到亦有這類避嫌的安排，並且曾經公布，大家可以看到很多這樣的例子。
The latter is adopted under the Governments mechanism . Members may well notice that previously there were many similar examples of published arrangements for avoidance of suspicion
主席，下一任特首選舉即將到來，在這段時間，有兩位人士已正式宣布會參選。
President the next Chief Executive Election is fast approaching and so far two persons have formally announced their decisions to run in the election
不過，雖然他們表明會參選，但最終能否入閘，仍然是未知之數。
But despite their announcements it is still not known whether they can eventually enter the starting gate
所以，我們在這段時間只能繼續觀望，看看最終有哪些人能夠成為正式參選人。
Hence in the interim we can only keep watching and wait to see who can formally become a candidate at the end of the day
他們何時才正式被確認為參選人仍未可知，但今天卻是一個好時機讓大家談談對未來特首的期望。
It is still not known when their candidacy can be formally confirmed but today is a very good opportunity for us to say a few words on our expectations for the next Chief Executive
這是非常重要的，我認為這是一個很好的機會。
This is very important and a very good opportunity
自第一屆起，選舉均由中央政府操控，市民大眾根本無權透過選票作出自己的抉擇，因此，即使我們說出了期望，又有甚麼意思呢？
Since the first Chief Executive Election the Central Government has been manipulating the whole electoral process and the people have never been able to make their own choices through the ballot box . Hence what is the point of talking about our expectations?
民主制度停滯不前，其實市民大眾一直都非常憤怒，而這種憤怒透過很多問題反映了出來。
The people have all along been very angry about the lack of democratic progress for our system and such anger has manifested itself in many different problems
不過，若要成功實行"一國兩制"，很大程度要建基於"港人治港"、"高度自治"。
But the successful implementation of one country two systems must to a very large extent depend on Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong and a high degree of autonomy
很可惜，"港人治港"、"高度自治"在過去10多年完全未能好好落實，中央政府一直沒有尊重香港市民的意願。
Regrettably Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong and a high degree of autonomy have never been properly implemented over the past 10 years and the Central Government has never respected the aspirations of Hong Kong people
我們看見很多香港事務不是由中央政府直接干預，便是由中聯辦直接或間接插手，令香港市民感到"港人治港"、"高度自治"已變成"中央治港"，我們根本無法享受任何自治。
We can observe that in the case of many Hong Kong affairs there was either the direct intervention of the Central Government or the direct or indirect intervention of the Liaison Office of the Central Peoples Government in the Hong Kong SAR . Hong Kong people thus feel that Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong and a high degree of autonomy have been reduced to the Central Authorities ruling Hong Kong and we simply cannot have any autonomy at all
我相信是達到了，因為我們"齊心"要求他不要連任，盡快下台。
I suppose he has because we are all of one heart in asking him to step down and not to seek re - election
除此之外，根本沒有任何"齊心"可言。
This aside there is no one heart at all
關心勞工議題和民生議題的人會清楚知道，標準工時立法、強積金對沖、全民退保，這些統統沒有做，甚至連當時被形容為重中之重，需要嚴肅處理的住屋問題也沒有改善。
People who are concerned about labour and livelihood issues will know clearly that he has not done anything whatsoever about legislating for standard working hours the offsetting arrangement under the Mandatory Provident Fund System and universal retirement protection . He has likewise failed to bring forth any improvement even in respect of housing―the top priority issue which he said must be seriously tackled at that time
自他上台後，輪候入住公屋的時間已由3年變成4年多，重中之重的議題反而變得越來越差。
Since his taking office the waiting time for public housing has increased from three years to four years . This top priority problem has instead turned even more serious
反而他所謂的"香港營"，現時在香港已經是全無形態可言。
Instead of seeing the Hong Kong camp he referred to we can actually observe that there is not any form of unity in Hong Kong
因此，他說一套，做一套，已無法達到效果，這是大家完全可以清清楚楚看到的。
Therefore his trickery of saying and doing different things can no longer work . This is something we can all see very clearly
但是，當我們批評梁振英的同時，香港市民卻有另一種擔心。
But as we criticize LEUNG Chun - ying Hong Kong people also have another worry
林鄭月娥有數點令人擔心的地方，其中之一便是她竟然告訴我們，她會繼續走梁振英的路線。
There are several things about Carrie LAM that worry us . One of them is her telling us that she will hold onto the line taken by LEUNG Chun - ying
第三，分裂和分化社會，如果她真的要跟着梁振英的路線走，實在令人感到相當憂慮。
Third splitting up and dividing society . If she really holds onto LEUNG Chun - yings line we will certainly be very worried
況且，她作出這些行為之後，竟然可以面不改容，無懼社會的批評，還要態度傲慢，堅持自己沒有錯，以為自己大獲全勝。
Worse still after doing all this she is not the slightest bit ashamed . She is defiant of all the criticisms in society and extremely arrogant insisting that she has done nothing wrong and thinking that she has won a great victory
她這種自把自為，獨斷獨行的性格，我認為與獨裁者無異，而與梁振英相比，她更是過之而無不及。
I think such presumptuous and autocratic behaviour makes her no different from a dictator . When compared with LEUNG Chun - ying she is even worse
所以，我認為林鄭月娥除了好勇鬥狠，不聽民意之外，正如我剛才提及，她更學習到梁振英另一點，便是向中央獻媚，向中央邀功，主動拍馬屁，故宮便是一個清清楚楚的事實。
I hence think that apart from being bellicose and unreceptive to public opinions Carrie LAM is also like LEUNG Chun - ying in one way that I have talked about just now―fawning on the Central Authorities . She likes to boast before the Central Authorities and claim all the credits and she is a sycophant as evidenced by the Hong Kong Palace Museum incident
"高度自治"，這才是最重要的，這也是我們的準則。
This should be the most important thing and our criterion
主席，我發言支持梁耀忠議員的議案。
President I rise to speak in support of Mr LEUNG Yiu - chungs motion
的確，在香港15萬聽障人士中，並非每一位都是深度聽障的。
Yes among the 150 000 people with hearing impairment in Hong Kong not every one of them has profound hearing impairment
但是，對於這些深度聽障人士，他們無法透過人工耳蝸或其他助聽器材與外界溝通，手語便是他們唯一的溝通橋樑。
But sign language is the only communication means to these people with profound hearing impairment who cannot communicate with others by having cochlear implants or using hearing aids
政府多年來放棄了推動手語，沒有協助聽障人士 融入社會、紓解學習上的挑戰，更扼殺了手語在香港僅存的地位。
In the past years the Government has abandoned the promotion of sign language done nothing to assist people with hearing impairment to integrate into society and to alleviate their learning difficulties and suppressed the status of sign language if any in Hong Kong
我們的社會和政府在哪裏？
How come our society and our Government are not helping?
我還記得以前的同事劉慧卿，她與其他議員同事不知爭取了多少年，才讓立法會會議增添手語傳譯。
I still remember how hard our former colleague Emily LAU together with other Members have fought for I know not for how many years the provision of sign language interpretation for the Legislative Council meetings
社會上備受歧視、被邊緣化，討價還價能力最低的人，根本不用理會。
Those who are discriminated marginalized and have the least bargaining power can be cast aside
一些深度聽障人士不會因為你不幫他們，便自然有其他器材代替，他們仍然要面對困難。
If you do not help people with profound hearing impairment there will not be other spontaneous help for them and they still have to face the difficulties
大家都知道有一位很聰明的曾芷君同學，眾所周知，她非常刻苦，靠着唇讀和凸字學習，最終成為狀元。
We all know TSANG Tze - kwan a very smart student who studies by using braille and lip - reading . She worked against all odds and became top achiever in public examinations
另一個令我們傷心的例子是李菁，這個使人心酸的故事相信不用多說了。
Another example is LI Ching which is a very sad story
一個克服重重困難進入大學學習，並曾經找到工作的人，因為社會沒有向她提供支援，即使讀了這麼多書，連一份工作也找不到，一時想不開，便結束了短暫的生命。
LI having hurdled all kinds of obstacles managed to get admitted to university and was then employed for some brief periods of time . Society did not provide much support to her . Though highly - educated she could not find a stable job and finally in a moment of weakness she chose to end her brief life
時至今日，政府仍不願意正視這些問題，甚至找各種理由推卻，實在不能忍受。
To date the Government still refuses to face these problems squarely and even shirks its responsibility with all sorts of reasons . It is really unbearable
我希望政府能好好回應，如何面對這些有困難的人士......
I hope the Government can provide a proper response on how it will face these people whose lives are plagued with difficulties
代理主席，2017年是香港回歸祖國20周年紀念，亦是香港迎來重大轉變的一年。
Deputy President the year 2017 marks the 20 anniversary of Hong Kongs reunification with the Motherland . It is also a year of significant changes in Hong Kong
特首選舉如箭在弦，社會各界都密切留意選情，對新一任特首寄予厚望。
As the Chief Executive election is fast approaching various social sectors are keeping a close watch on this election while cherishing high expectations for the new Chief Executive
市民都希望新特首能夠統領全局、修復社會裂痕，與市民上下一心，搞好經濟，改善民生，令香港社會和諧，政治穩定，市民得以安居樂業。
People hope that the new Chief Executive can be a leader with the ability to take the broad picture in view repair our social dissension and stand united with the people to develop the economy and improve peoples livelihood with a view to bringing forth social harmony and political stability in Hong Kong and in turn enabling people to live and work in contentment
香港回歸祖國20年，經歷過高低起跌，大大小小的風浪都在中央的支持、政府的努力，以及市民的齊心協力下安然渡過。
During the 20 years since the reunification with the Motherland Hong Kong has experienced many ups and downs . With the Central Authorities support the Governments diligence and also peoples concerted efforts we have tided over many turbulences of various scales at ease
