主席，上述都是有血有肉的活生生例子。
President all these stories are living examples in real life
我感謝陳沛然議員提到，我建議就保障罕見疾病的病人權益立法；鍾國斌議員也提議，在400億元盈餘中撥出40億元購買藥物。
I thank Dr Pierre CHAN for mentioning my legislative proposal to protect the rights and interests of rare disease patients . Mr CHUNG Kwok - pan has also proposed to allocate 4 billion from the surplus of 40 billion for purchasing medicine
羅致光建議她打電話向勞工處求助。
She sought help from LAW Chi - kwong who in response suggested her calling the Labour Department LD for assistance
在香港如此富裕的地方，為何不斷發生這種事？
How come these cases keep coming up in a rich city like Hong Kong?
這些人物、遭遇、經歷是現今很多基層市民所面對的，上述個案不是例外，而是常態。
The experiences of these people are facing many grass - roots people today . The aforesaid cases are norms rather than exceptions
他們手握大權，一念之差可以幫助很多人，但他們偏偏不幫，偏偏緊守"大市場、小政府"及自力更生原則，實際上要市民自生自滅。
While they have power in hand to help many they refuse to give a helping hand . Instead they insist on sticking to the principles of big market small government and self - reliance which in effect are telling people to fend for themselves
他們手握全部儲備還嫌未夠，貪得無厭。
They have all reserves in their hands but they still want more . How greedy they are!
代理主席，財政司司長發表的2019-2020年度財政預算案，社會反應並不理想。
Deputy President regarding the 2019 - 2020 Budget released by the Financial Secretary society has not responded to it positively
根據香港大學民意研究計劃上月的民調結果，對預算案強烈不滿或不滿的市民有52.4%，滿意或非常滿意的市民只有19.4%。
According to a public opinion survey conducted last month by the Public Opinion Programme of the University of Hong Kong 52.4 % of the respondents were strongly dissatisfied or dissatisfied with the Budget and only 19.4 % of them were satisfied or very satisfied with it
這樣的結果並不令人感到意外，這份預算案中的惠民措施乏善可陳。
The result is not surprising for the relief measures proposed in the Budget are nothing to write about
在上一份預算案，我批評財政司司長4,000元的補漏拾遺措施繁瑣吝嗇，謹小慎微，行政措施複雜，對申請和審批都諸多不便，最終仍難紓緩社會的不滿。
In respect of the Budget last year I criticized the 4,000 gap - plugging initiative introduced by the Financial Secretary as being cumbersome meagre and overcautious . The complicated administrative procedure causes inconveniences in application vetting and approval . The social discontent was not alleviated in the end
現時，這4,000元的補漏拾遺措施仍在處理中，不少合資格的市民收錢仍遙遙無期，徒添對政府的不滿。
Now the 4,000 gap - plugging initiative is still being processed there is still no definite date for eligible people to receive the money and thus discontent with the Government has unnecessarily arisen
這份預算案中，財政司司長連補漏拾遺措施也沒有推出，只有年年如是的利民紓困措施，例如寬減薪俸稅和利得稅、免差餉、向綜援人士、高齡長者多發一個月津貼，向有需要的學生發放2,500元津貼。
In the Budget this year the Financial Secretary has introduced no gap - plugging initiative at all . There are only relief measures that are routinely introduced each year such as reducing salaries tax and profits tax waiving rates providing an extra one - month allowance to recipients of Comprehensive Social Security Assistance and Old Age Allowance and providing a grant of 2,500 to each student in need . To put it mildly all people will benefit from the series of measures introduced
施政報告公布萬億元"明日大嶼"填海計劃，預算案提出近450億元的創新科技投資，市民面對樓價高企，通脹持續，對預算案有不滿是很自然的。
As the Policy Address has announced the Lantau Tomorrow reclamation project that may cost as much as 1 trillion and the Budget proposes spending 45 billion on investing in innovation and technology members of the public are naturally dissatisfied with the Budget when they face high property prices and ongoing inflation
我所屬的港九勞工社團聯會更批評預算案是"鴻圖發展畫大餅，遠水救不了近火，市民要畫餅充飢"。
The Federation of Hong Kong and Kowloon Labour Unions FLU to which I belong has even criticized the Budget for drawing up ambitious development plans failing to quench a nearby fire with distant water and allaying peoples hunger with cakes in a drawing
代理主席，預算案演辭並無特別着墨於具體勞工政策。
Deputy President the Budget Speech has not specifically made any mention of a concrete labour policy
在去年的預算案，司長預留了150億元配合取消強積金對沖政策，部分增撥人手的措施亦正在處理當中。
In the Budget last year the Financial Secretary mentioned that 15 billion would be earmarked for abolishing the Mandatory Provident Fund offsetting mechanism . Some of the initiatives for allocating additional manpower are also being processed
我一直關注職業安全，勞工處一級和二級職業安全主任的編制人數已經提高，但員工的實際數目卻不升反跌，我希望勞工處檢討前線職業安全主任人手不足的原因，從速作出改善。
I have been concerned about occupational safety all along . While the establishment of Occupational Safety Officers I and II of the Labour Department has been expanded the actual number of staff members has instead dropped . I hope the Labour Department will conduct a review on the reasons for the insufficient manpower of frontline Occupational Safety Officers and make improvement expeditiously
這種統計方式不能反映巡查的真實情況，反而有弄虛作假的嫌疑。
Such a computation method cannot reflect the actual circumstances of inspections and might be fraudulent
我希望處方能改善巡查統計的方法。
I hope that the Department will improve the way in which the statistics on on - site inspections are conducted
代理主席，交通政策方面，今年預算案重提以電子道路收費改善交通擠塞，運輸署和警方等部門亦正推動以創新科技增加泊車位、監察違例泊車等問題。
Deputy President in respect of transport policy the Budget this year again proposes electronic road pricing as a means to alleviate traffic congestion . Departments such as the Transport Department and the Police are also promoting the adoption of innovative technologies to address issues such as increasing car parks and monitoring illegal parking
要改善香港道路擠塞越來越嚴重的問題，最有效的辦法是從源頭減少在路面行走的車輛。
To rectify the increasingly serious problem of traffic congestion on Hong Kong roads the most effective way is to reduce at source the number of vehicles travelling on the roads
利用科技管理道路和泊車是大勢所趨，但我認為政府引入電子科技管理道路使用和泊車的同時，要留意在人手管理中的酌情做法。
The application of technologies for road management and car parking is a general trend but I think that the Government should exercise discretion in manpower management when introducing electronic technologies for road use management and car parking
我相信在電子科技管理下保留足夠的彈性，對職業司機的影響至為重要。
I think that the retention of adequate flexibility in the application of electronic technologies is of vital importance to professional drivers
現時，電子道路收費計劃仍未推出，我不知道該計劃最後是否如三隧分流一樣，胎死腹中，但我期望不論電子道路收費能否順利推行，政府仍能盡快增撥資源，改善公共交通服務。
The electronic road pricing scheme has yet to be rolled out at present . I wonder whether the scheme will be aborted like the proposal for the rationalization of traffic distribution among the three road harbour crossings . That said I hope that irrespective of whether electronic road pricing can be implemented smoothly the Government will still expeditiously allocate more resources to improve public transport services
代理主席，財政司司長在預算案演辭中提及，失業率維持在2.8%，是超過20年的最低水平。
Deputy President the Financial Secretary mentioned in the Budget Speech that the unemployment rate remained at 2.8 % which is the lowest level in more than 20 years
司長稱，"總就業人數保持增長，市民收入持續有實質改善"。
According to the Financial Secretary Total employment sustained growth and salaries increased continuously in real terms
但是，失業率低與基層市民的生活改善沒有必然關係。
However low unemployment rate does not necessarily mean the improvement of grass - roots peoples livelihood
知名雜誌《經濟學人》最近一項調查顯示，香港是全球生活指數最高的城市。
A recent survey of the Economist a renowned magazine has revealed that Hong Kong is the most expensive city in the world
香港僱員沒有標準工時，沒有全民退休保障，基層員工的最低工資遠遠落後於生活所需。
Hong Kong employees enjoy neither standard working hours nor universal retirement protection . The increase in minimum wages of grass - roots workers lags far behind their livelihood needs
與基層市民息息相關的食物價格升幅，遠遠不止預算案所說的通脹率2.6%，這些不是司長說市民收入持續有實質改善便能解說過去。
The increase in food prices that are closely related to grass - roots people is far more than 2.6 % the inflation rate mentioned in the Budget . These cannot be explained away by the Financial Secretary saying that salaries increased continuously in real terms
關於勞工市場依然偏緊的問題，勞聯一直關注本港現時仍有65萬多家庭照顧者的勞動力未被釋放。
Regarding the problem of a persistently tight labour market FLU has noticed that some 650 000 family carers in Hong Kong have yet to be released to join the labour market
勞聯曾在2016年及2017年就家長對現時幼兒照顧服務的安排作出調查，有不少受訪者認為幼兒服務的名額太少、輪候時間過長，有超過半數受訪者認為照顧子女是影響他們揀選工作的因素。
In 2016 and 2017 FLU conducted surveys on parents views on the arrangement for childcare services and many respondents considered that the number of places for childcare services was too small and the waiting time too long . More than half of the respondents said that childcare was a factor that affected their choice of jobs
甚至有不 少家長表示，育兒得不到外界支援，工作和照顧子女的責任難以平衡，這只會令很多適齡婦女無法出外工作。
Some parents even indicated that they received no external support in childcare and they were unable to balance working and taking care of their children . Many women of the relevant age cohort were thus unable to go out to work
此外，每天150名從內地來港家庭團聚的人口中，適齡工作的婦女所佔的比例亦不少，局方除了應有措施協助她們融入社會外，亦應有措施鼓勵她們就業，在減輕社會負擔之餘，亦可釋放勞動力。
In addition of the 150 people who come from the Mainland to Hong Kong for family reunion each day working - age women account for a large percentage . Apart from introducing measures to help them integrate into society the authorities should also put in place measures to encourage them to seek employment . This will not only ease the burden on society but also release them to join the labour market
與釋放勞動力密切相關的是護老院舍人手不足的問題。
A problem closely connected with releasing people to join the labour market is the shortage of manpower at residential care homes for the elderly
早前有傳媒報道，指參加社會福利署外傭護老培訓試驗計劃的外傭，或可轉職資助院舍，雖然勞工及福利局局長作出澄清，但仍引起社會關注和勞工界的擔心。
It has been reported by the media that foreign domestic helpers who participate in the Pilot Scheme on Training for Foreign Domestic Helpers in Elderly Care of the Social Welfare Department may probably be transferred to subsidized residential care homes . Despite the clarification from the Secretary for Labour and Welfare this has still aroused concerns in the community and the labour sector
政府一直要求勞工顧問委員會放寬輸入資助院舍外勞的數目，我再強調，我反對擴大輸入外勞，政府應先改善現時院舍護理人員的薪酬和福利條件。
The Government has been requesting the Labour Advisory Board to relax the number of foreign workers to be imported for subsidized residential care homes but I would like to reiterate that I oppose expanding the importation of foreign labour and the Government should first improve the remuneration packages of the existing care staff of residential care homes
此外，在培訓及招聘本地婦女從事院舍工作方面，相關措施應具針對性和彈性，目標是便利家庭主婦能到院舍工作，善用本地勞動力。
In addition on training and recruiting local women to undertake jobs at residential care homes the relevant measures should be targeted and flexible . They should aim at making it convenient for housewives to work at residential care homes and optimizing the use of local workforce
在社會福利方面，社會廣泛關注財政司司長提出撥款200億元，購置60個物業，以供設立超過130項社福設施，包括日間幼兒中心、長者鄰舍中心、到校學前康復服務等。
In respect of social welfare there has been widespread concern in the community about the Financial Secretarys proposal to allocate 20 billion for the purchase of 60 properties for accommodating more than 130 welfare facilities including day childcare centres neighbourhood elderly centres and on - site pre - school rehabilitation services
正如勞工及福利局局長早前提到，目前服務短缺，不少服務的輪候人數不斷上升，有些長者更在輪候過程中離世，這說明政府社會福利服務嚴重不足。
As indicated by the Secretary for Labour and Welfare earlier given the existing shortage of services the number of people waiting for many services has been on the rise and some elderly people even passed away in the waiting process . This reflects the severe shortage of social welfare services provided by the Government
透過購置物業即時提供服務，可紓緩輪候時間過長的壓力，但這200億元仍是杯水車薪，未能滿足社會的需要。
The purchase of properties for the immediate provision of services will alleviate the pressure of long waiting time but the 20 billion will still only be a drop in the bucket and fail to meet social needs
就購置60個物業的做法，我關注社福服務的優次，以至選址的安排。
Regarding the purchase of 60 properties I am concerned about the prioritization of social welfare services and the selection of sites
我希望局方能有效運用資源，達致最佳效果。
I hope that the authorities will make effective use of resources and achieve the best results
代理主席，在新增撥款方面，我歡迎政府提出向醫院管理局提供額外7億元經常資助，用作提高員工士氣及挽留人才。
Deputy President regarding the allocation of additional funding I welcome the Governments proposal to provide additional recurrent funding of over 700 million for the Hospital Authority HA to boost staff morale and retain talents
其中一項具體措施包括上調病房支援人員薪酬。
One of the specific measures is to increase the salary of ward supporting staff
據了解，在預算案公布後，醫管局進一步完善加薪方案，以回應醫療支援職系員工的訴求，但需要追加撥款以應付相關開支。
As far as I know following the release of the Budget HA has further optimized the proposal for pay increase in response to the aspirations of supporting health care staff but supplementary provisions will be needed to meet the relevant expenditure
我期望政府在資源上能配合，並確保有關撥款用得其所。
I hope that the Government will be supportive in terms of resources and ensure that the funding will be put to proper use
同時，現有加薪方案並不包括2000年前入職醫管局的支援職系員工。
Meanwhile the existing proposal for pay increase does not cover supporting staff who joined HA before 2000
根據醫管局代表的說法，最快在今年9月才會提出這批舊制員工的薪酬調整方案。
According to HA representatives the proposal for pay adjustment for such staff under the old system will only be raised as early as September this year
我期望政府能夠敦促醫管局盡快完成相關工作，並在過程中積極聽取員工的意見。
I hope that the Government will urge HA to finish the relevant work as soon as possible and actively listen to the views of staff members in the process
代理主席，在公務員隊伍，有關5天工作周的政策已推行了13年，現時仍有兩成多公務員未能受惠5天工作周的政策。
Deputy President the policy on the five - day work week has been implemented for 13 years in the civil service but some 20 % of civil servants have yet to enjoy the five - day work week
我認為有關政策需要全面檢討，目標是讓全體公務員都能享受5天工作周。
I think that the policy needs to be reviewed comprehensively so that all civil servants can enjoy the five - day work week
在這方面，我相信需要財政司司長在資源上配合。
In this connection I believe that the Financial Secretary needs to be supportive in terms of resources
此外，在施政報告中政府已承諾落實將中醫中藥納入公務員服務之中，但預算案對公務員中醫中藥服務的資源投放卻沒有半點着墨，我希望政府能把承諾早日落實。
In addition in the Policy Address the Government has undertaken to introduce Chinese medicine as part of the civil service medical benefits but the Budget makes no mention of the allocation of resources for the provision of Chinese medicine service to civil servants . I hope that the Government can fulfil its undertaking as soon as possible
其實，我認識"黃姐"已兩年，她是經常到訪我在上水石湖墟的辦事處的街坊。
In fact I have known Madam WONG for two years . She is a local resident who has made frequent visits to my office in Shek Wu Hui in Sheung Shui
一位長者服務政府多年，最終只得到非常微薄的退休金，無法讓她找到一處很卑微的居所，生活方面就連糊口也談不上。
After serving the Government for years the elderly lady could only get paltry retirement benefits with which she cannot even afford a lowly and simple home or scrape a living
"黃姐"的故事其實是香港許多貧苦大眾，尤其是貧苦長者的縮影，但香港的社會卻非常富庶。
The story of Madam WONG is actually a typical example of the life of many underprivileged people especially the impoverished elderly people in Hong Kong . Most ironically however the Hong Kong community is very rich
這是香港最大的諷刺。香港是全世界樓價最高的城市，但同時亦是貧富懸殊最嚴重的城市。
While Hong Kongs property prices are the highest in the world the disparity between the rich and the poor in the city is also the greatest
這城市有繁華的一面，亦有不堪入目的一面。
In this prosperous city there is also a flip side which is unbearable to see
香港這城市已患病，而且病得非常、非常嚴重，影響到非常多基層市民的日常生活。
Since the city of Hong Kong has fallen extremely ill the daily lives of a considerable number of grass - roots people have been affected
民主派、民主黨多年以來一直要求政府制訂全民退休保障；然而，政府即使坐擁以千億元計的盈餘，仍然拒絕落實全民退休保障，卻可以輕率通過種種浪費公共資源的項目。
The pro - democracy camp and the Democratic Party have been urging the Government to put in place universal retirement protection for many years . However despite its fiscal surplus amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars the Government has still been reluctant to implement universal retirement protection . In contrast it has hastily approved various projects which are wasting public resources
我希望政府應為香港長遠着想，在政府財政穩健的時間盡快落實全民退休保障。
I hope that the Government will take Hong Kongs long - term interests into account and expeditiously implement universal retirement protection given its current sound fiscal position
我剛才談及香港的房屋問題，而現時在席的有運輸及房屋局局長陳帆先生。
I have just talked about Hong Kongs housing problem and the Secretary for Transport and Housing Frank CHAN is among the officials who are present at the meeting now
當然，房屋問題絕非在今屆政府任期內才出現，而是多屆政府一直累積下來的問題。
Of course the housing problem which is definitely not something new under this Administration has been a persistent problem under previous Administrations
接下來，香港的樓市不斷上升至現時失控的地步，受影響的不單是基層市民，連很多中產和專業人士也受影響。
Furthermore the continuous rise in Hong Kongs property prices has become out of control . Not only the grass - roots people but also many middle - class people and professionals have been affected
很多年輕的律師或其他專業人士想為結婚而置業，但往往仍需要他們的父輩支持，否則靠自行儲錢也不知要儲多少年。
Many young lawyers or other types of professionals who intend to acquire a property for the sake of getting married can only rely on the support from their fathers generation . Otherwise it is uncertain how many years it will take them to save money on their own
民主黨看見如此嚴重的房屋問題，因此這麼多年來，一直支持政府盡量多興建公營房屋，私人土地方面亦應有穩定及充足的供應。
In view of such a serious housing problem the Democratic Party has over the years supported the Government in building more PRH units as far as possible and ensuring stable and sufficient land supply for private housing construction
在東北發展方面，民主黨原則上支持，但當然要做好所有安置及補償的政策。
The Democratic Party supports in principle the development of North East New Territories NENT provided that the Government has properly put in place all rehousing and compensation measures
在發展局牽頭下，居民不少的訴求當局已回應，但仍然有未解決的問題。
Under the leadership of the Development Bureau the authorities have responded to a lot of residents demands but some issues have remained unresolved
我早前曾向發展局的官員表達意見，包括居民租住香港房屋協會的安置屋苑時，政府能否提供租金優惠，因為居民的積蓄和收入絕對符合租金優惠的標準，只是過往種種政策遺留下來的問題使他們未能符合有關的資格。
I have recently expressed my views to officials from the Development Bureau including the suggestion for the Government to offer rental concessions to residents rehoused in housing estates under the Hong Kong Housing Society . These residents have definitely met the requirements on saving and income for rental concessions . However the problems left over by various policies in the past have rendered them ineligible for the concessions concerned
至於其他有關東北地區村民"上樓"的問題，我亦希望政府盡量彈性考慮他們的分戶要求，以及所飼養寵物的權益。
As to other matters relating to the allocation of housing to villagers in NENT I also hope that the Government will as far as practicable deal with their requests for household splitting and the rights of their pets with flexibility
鑒於未來新界東北將有20多萬新增人口，政府應有相應的交通基建設施和配套。
Given the additional population of over 200 000 in NENT in the future the Government should provide transport infrastructure and ancillary facilities accordingly
至目前為止，我仍未能看到政府有甚麼好的改善交通措施，足以應對未來10年東北發展及皇后山發展所新增約30萬的人口。
So far we have not yet seen any desirable transport improvement measures introduced by the Government to cater for the additional population of about 300 000 due to the development of NENT and Queens Hill in the coming decade
我多次與運輸及房屋局官員討論由新界東北直達市區的方法，必須有公共交通接駁，而政府應預留足夠的財政儲備投放在這些基建配套上。
I have discussed with officials from the Transport and Housing Bureau on many occasions the ways to travel directly from NENT to urban areas . Public transport modes connecting NENT and urban areas are essential . The Government should also earmark a sufficient amount in the fiscal reserves for such infrastructural support
我知道政府現在已改變過往的思維。
As far as I know the Government has already changed its previous mindset
政府表示，過往要求地區內有足夠人口並達至某個標準，政府才會提供某些公共設施，但現在做法已更改，便是視乎未來需求的估算來預早規劃，這是正確的方向。
According to the Government it would previously only provide certain public facilities after the population of a district had met the required standard . However the Government has changed its practice now . It will plan ahead based on estimated future demand which is a move in the right direction
但是，以東北為例，我到現在也看不到政府有大刀闊斧的計劃進行基建，以應付未來遷入東北的人口、跨境旅客及東鐵綫沿線人口。
That said take NENT as an example . So far I have not seen any bold plan of the Government on infrastructure construction to cater for the people moving to NENT cross - boundary passengers and residents living in areas along the East Rail Line of MTR
所以，我希望政府盡快處理。
Therefore I hope that the Government will tackle the issue expeditiously
最重要的，是局方要做好把關的角色，是其是、非其非，絕對不可以將黑說成白，將是說成非。
Most importantly the Bureau should properly play its role as a gatekeeper by approving what is right and condemning what is wrong . It should never call white black or confuse right and wrong
不對就是不對，絕對不可以因為甚麼壓力或嘗試淡化掩飾醜聞，而把一項這麼重大的公共基建醜聞壓下去。
Mistakes are mistakes . It is absolutely unacceptable for anyone to attempt to play down or conceal such a large - scale infrastructure scandal due to any pressure
雖然我們已有超支的準備，卻不可以讓人予取予攜。
Although we have prepared for cost overruns we should not allow other people to take advantage of the project so blatantly
主席，鑒於近年樓宇老化問題非常嚴重，我希望政府除了成立基金支援業主更換老化的升降機及提升安全組件外，亦要做好監察工作，確保這些計劃不會被濫用，以及不會有不法分子嘗試進行圍標勾當。
President given the extremely serious ageing of buildings in recent years I hope that the Government will set up a fund to subsidize owners to replace aged lifts and enhance safety components as well as properly play its monitoring role to ensure that the relevant schemes will not be abused and that no lawbreakers will attempt to engage in illegal bid - rigging activities
當然，不單是升降機工程，就是日常樓宇維修，我們也希望政府加強資源，尤其是讓市區重建局做好"招標妥"計劃。
Of course in addition to lifts - related works we also hope that the Government will allocate more resources to routine building maintenance particularly facilitating the Smart Tender scheme the scheme implemented by the Urban Renewal Authority URA
現在的計劃讓不少業主有參考價格，亦對工程有一定程度的監管。
Under the scheme a number of homeowners have access to reference prices and can monitor some works to a certain extent
但是，有一點非常重要，就是在現時的"招標妥"計劃下，業主提交申請後，市建局只會協助業主招聘顧問公司，而不會干涉承辦商的工作水平和施工質素。
However one particular point should be noted . At present under the scheme after property owners have submitted their application URA will only assist them in engaging a consultancy firm but will not interfere with the level and quality of works carried out by contractors
我希望政府"為人為到底，送佛送到西"，既已走了這麼多步便增撥多一些資源，讓市建局指派的獨立顧問替業主抽驗一下工程 質素。
I hope that the Government will provide property owners with further assistance all the way through the completion of the works . Given the numerous steps it has already taken the Government should further allocate some resources to enable URA - appointed independent consultants to conduct sampling tests on the quality of works on behalf of owners
這方面的開支非常有限，但對於整個社會的整體利益而言是絕對值得推行。
While the expenditure incurred will be minimal this suggestion is absolutely worthy of implementation considering its overall interests to the entire community
這個做法會令不法工程人員和圍標集團知道，如果工程造假，萬一被抽中檢驗，便會受到很嚴厲的處分，並要承擔後果。
This practice will serve as a warning to law - breaking works personnel and bid - rigging syndicates . Should any falsifications in their works be detected in sampling tests they will be severely punished and required to take the responsibility
所以，我希望政府能有遠見，就圍標問題要再多走幾步，以作打擊。
Therefore I hope that the Government can be visionary and take a few steps forward in cracking down on bid - rigging
主席，我最後想說的是，政府應該繼續增加資源，支援罕見病患者。
President lastly I would like to urge the Government to continue to deploy additional resources to support patients suffering from rare diseases
香港這麼富庶，不應該讓任何病人因為沒有錢而等死。
In such an affluent city like Hong Kong no patients should be left to wait for death due to a lack of means
過往，因為經濟問題卻等不到資源而最終離世的病人不計其數，香港不應該讓這些悲劇繼續發生。
In the past innumerable patients with financial problems had eventually died during their wait for resources . We should no longer allow such tragedies to recur in Hong Kong
另外，政府亦應該增加資源，支援有特殊教育需要的小朋友，他們可能有身體問題或心理問題。
Furthermore the Government should also deploy additional resources to support children with special educational needs SEN who may have physical or psychological problems
小朋友的歲月是不能追回的，錯過了治療的黃金時間，往後即使有很多輔助和治療方法都已無法彌補所失。
If the children have missed the golden time for treatment they will never be able to return to their childhood and the loss will be irreparable even if they are given many support and various treatments in future
我希望政府盡量體恤這些有特殊教育需要的小朋友，照顧他們和家人一生的幸福。
I hope that the Government will endeavour to give sympathetic consideration to children with SEN and take care of their and their familys lifelong well - being
