"高IQ局長"被我追問到不知如何回答時，便表示高齡人士可以領取綜合社會保障援助、長者生活津貼，受惠於這次獲多撥資源旨在協助高齡人士就業的計劃。
When the Secretary with high IQ being further pressed by me for a reply did not know how to respond he could only say that elderly persons can apply for the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance CSSA and the Old Age Living Allowance and benefit from the employment programmes for which more resources have been committed this time around to help elderly persons seek jobs
我要借此機會對財金官員說，希望他們盡快制訂一些措施，讓這個荒謬的情況可以得到解決，不可以讓"高IQ局長"做出如此低能的事，影響市民對整份預算案的印象。
I would like to take this opportunity to tell financial officials that I hope they will expeditiously formulate certain measures to address this absurd situation and prevent the Secretary with high IQ from doing such stupid things so as not to affect peoples perceptions of the Budget
駿洋邨檢疫中心門外張貼了一張通告，說中藥屬於違禁品，不能帶進隔離營。
A notice posted at the entrance of the quarantine centre at Chun Yeung Estate says that Chinese medicines are prohibited items that must not be brought into the quarantine centre
在整個抗疫過程當中，中醫界多次提出，他們可以協助抗疫，但政府完全無動於衷。
In the entire anti - epidemic process the Chinese medicine sector has mentioned time and again that they can help with the anti - epidemic work but the Government has remained nonchalant
回想起SARS的時候，中醫立下奇功。
We recall that at the time of SARS Chinese medicine achieved an impressive accomplishment
今年的預算案列明已把中醫藥納入本港的醫療系統，但中醫藥卻竟然不可以參與抗疫工作。
While the Budget this year states that Chinese medicine has been incorporated into our health care system Chinese medicine is surprisingly not allowed to participate in the anti - epidemic work
有些中成藥已在香港註冊，這些藥物在內地非常珍貴，但國家仍送給香港使用。
Some proprietary Chinese medicines which have been registered in Hong Kong are very precious on the Mainland but the Central Government has still sent them to Hong Kong as gifts
事實上，香港今天荒謬的事情實在太多，可以說是私空見慣。
In fact so many absurd things are commonplace in Hong Kong these days
"黑暴"或"攬炒派"議員煽風點火，這些錢全部都花得非常冤枉。
Due to black terror or the instigation on the part of Members from the mutual destruction camp money has been spent in vain on all such costs
過去半年，"黑暴"令香港企業雪上加霜，沒有旅客敢來港，看看暑假高鐵的載客量，便已知道香港各行各業的情況。
Over the past half a year black terror has further aggravated the plight of Hong Kong enterprises and no tourists dare to come to Hong Kong . One will know the conditions of all industries of Hong Kong if he takes a look at the passenger throughput of the Express Rail Link in the summer
這些事情何其荒謬，他們的質疑何其荒謬，何其前言不對後語。
How absurd these things are! . How absurd their queries are!
雖然今天他們沒有人在席聽我們發言，但他們的荒謬言論非常多，謬論百出、歪理當道的文化比疫情對香港的傷害更深遠。
How self - contradictory their arguments are! . Today none of them are present to listen to my speech but they have made so many absurd remarks and a culture in which fallacious arguments and false reasoning prevail does much more profound harm to Hong Kong than the outbreak of a disease
留案底可以令人生更精彩？
A criminal record will make ones life more exhilarating?
他們叫大家不要接受政府的1萬元，因為預算案會撥款給警察，所以大家要支持他們"攬炒"預算案。
They ask us to refuse the 10,000 to be handed out by the Government as funding will be allocated to the Police following the passage of the Budget so we should support them to veto the Budget by way of mutual destruction
但另一邊廂，他們有否告訴大家，如果預算案被"攬炒"，有病可能會得不到醫治？
On the other hand however have they told us that if the Budget is vetoed by way of mutual destruction sick persons will possibly not be able to get medical treatment?
公共開支沒有了，失業人士得不到救助，學生不能上學，老人家拿不到綜援。
If there is no public expenditure unemployed persons cannot get assistance students cannot go to school and elderly persons cannot get CSSA
很多市民會想到，過去香港有商有量，故此很多事也能成功。
Many people can recollect that as we were able to engage in negotiations in Hong Kong we succeeded in doing many things in the past
第一次香港政改可以成功，也有賴民主黨一眾議員願意與中央人民政府駐香港特別行政區聯絡辦公室討論。
The success of the first constitutional reform of Hong Kong hinged on the willingness of the Members of the Democratic Party to discuss with the Liaison Office of the Central Peoples Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
但是，到了今天，如果問市民香港的核心價值是甚麼，市民可能會說希望香港成為一個安全的地方。
However if a question is put to people as to what the core values of Hong Kong are these days people may say that they hope Hong Kong can become a safe place
如果我們外出會遇上堵路，會因為紅綠燈遭人破壞而遇上車禍死亡，會因為政見不合而遭人淋油或放火燒，甚至被人用渠蓋敲打，這是我們樂見的香港嗎？
If when we go out we would encounter road blockage be killed in a car accident due to the destruction of traffic lights be splashed paint or set ablaze due to differing political views or even be hit with a drain cover is this still the Hong Kong that we would like to see?
這是何其荒謬的議會。
What an absurd legislature!
因此，我希望各位市民不要再隔岸觀火，香港的前途和未來與每一位市民有關。
For this reason I hope members of the public will no longer sit on the fence . The way forward and future of Hong Kong are closely related to each and every member of the public
大家以前可能覺得政治與自己無關，但今天不能再冷眼旁觀，請在5月2日前登記做選民，多謝。
While you might feel politics had nothing to do with you in the past you should no longer look on with cold indifference today . Please register as an elector by 2 May . Thank you
主席，我們現正審議《2020年撥款條例草案》，一份涉及6,000多億元開支的財政預算案。
President we are now considering the Appropriation Bill 2020 relating to the Budget involving an expenditure of some 600 billion
每年的預算案理應是一次財政再分配的過程及機會，而特區政府坐擁龐大儲備，有多少儲備呢？
The preparation of annual Budgets should be an exercise and opportunity of wealth redistribution and the SAR Government has huge reserves
我們有1萬1,000億元的財政儲備，外匯基金總額高達 4萬2,000多億元。
How many reserves are there? . Our fiscal reserves stand at 1,100 billion with the size of the Exchange Fund totalling as much as some 4,200 billion
我們作為全世界最富裕的城市之一，但堅尼系數一直高企，貧富懸殊冠絕全球，可憐得連讓老人家安享晚年也做不到。
As one of the wealthiest cities in the world Hong Kongs Gini Coefficient has all along been high and we rank first in the world in terms of the disparity between the rich and the poor . It is such a pity that we cannot even provide our elderly with a happy life in their twilight years
長者生活津貼至今仍設資產審查，每個月向政府領取兩三千元也要"查家宅"，要接受詳細審查後才能獲發津貼。
The Old Age Living Allowance is still means - tested even now . Applicants have to provide considerable family details just to get a monthly sum of 2,000 to 3,000 from the Government and go through meticulous vetting before they will be granted the subsidy
現時公立醫院專科的輪候時間中位數已高達120個星期，超過一半病人要輪候超過28個月才能獲醫生接見。
The median waiting time for specialist services at public hospitals is currently as long as 120 weeks with more than half of the patients having to wait more than 28 months before they can see a doctor
去年在輪候期間去世的長者有7,041人，等到死也入不了院舍。
Last year 7 041 elderly persons passed away while waiting unable to get a place at residential care homes the moment they died
這份預算案一如既往偏袒財團、商家和權貴，漠視貧苦大眾，唯一亮點就是每人派發1萬元現金。
This Budget as always gives favouritism to consortia merchants and dignitaries to the neglect of the underprivileged . The only bright spot is the universal cash payout of 10,000
很多人叫林鄭月娥不要拖，要立即發放，協助貧苦大眾渡過疫情的難關，但她不聽我們的意見。
Lots of people have called on Carrie LAM to arrange for immediate disbursement without delay so as to tide the underprivileged over the difficulties arising from the epidemic . But she has refused to heed our call
澳洲每名員工獲補貼15,000澳元，5月第一個星期發放，600多萬人受惠。
In Australia a subsidy of A15,000 offered to every worker will be disbursed in the first week of May benefiting some 6 million people
主席，林鄭月娥先強推惡法，弄得香港天翻地覆，之後抗疫防疫不力，棄老百姓於不顧。
President Carrie LAM has pushed through the evil law turning Hong Kong into a mess in the first place followed by her incompetence in fighting and containing the epidemic leaving the general public in the lurch
可笑的是最應該走的人不走，浪費香港的米飯。
The funny part is that the very person who should have gone has stayed wasting the resources of Hong Kong
主席，整份預算案讓大家看到在財政再分配的過程中，政府連"餅碎"也不留給基層市民。
President the whole Budget has shown us that in the process of wealth redistribution the Government has not even left grass - roots people a morsel
香港電台作為香港人的電台，確實非常厲害，以非常緊絀的資源堅守報道真相的立場。
Asking people to hire him for making a video clip what a big joke! . As a radio station of Hongkongers RTHK is really something which remains firmly committed to reporting the truth despite tight resources
主席，在今天如此艱難的時刻，香港電台仍能在紐約節廣播大獎中獲得一金兩銅的殊榮。
President amid such a difficult time today RTHK has still managed to win one gold and two bronze awards in the New York Festivals Radio Awards
主席，放在眼前的整份預算案固然是"善財難捨，冤枉甘心"，但我們是時候想想一件事。
President the entire Budget laid before us is surely tight - fisted on benevolent measures but splashing out on unworthy causes . But it is time for us to think about one thing
是否每年只須考慮增加多少綜援金額或多發多少個月的傷殘津貼，便以為自己做了很多善事？
Can it consider itself a great philanthropist simply by giving consideration to the increase in CSSA rates or the additional months of Disability Allowance granted every year?
可是，當中有很多資源根本未能令貧苦大眾和普羅市民受惠。
But a large portion of the resources simply cannot benefit the underprivileged and the general public
最重要的是，在目前如此緊張的氣氛下，林鄭月娥已四面楚歌。
Most importantly in such a tense atmosphere at present Carrie LAM has been facing challenges from all sides
在防疫抗疫一事上，沒有人多謝林鄭月娥，要多謝便多謝香港人。
In the fight against and control of the epidemic no one will thank Carrie LAM . The credit should go to Hong Kong people
但老實說，我們看到政府提出的防疫抗疫基金"保就業、棄失業"，而預算案提出派發的1萬元仍未知何時能夠到手，而且還有一系列數之不盡的問題。
But frankly we see that the Government in introducing AEF seeks to safeguard jobs to the neglect of the unemployed . It remains unknown when we can receive the payout of 10,000 proposed in the Budget and there are also a whole host of problems
但一場反對強推"送中惡法"的運動，加上防疫抗疫的表現，整個"林鄭"政府的所有聲譽一掃而光。
But the movement of opposition to the push for the draconian China extraction law coupled with the anti - epidemic performance has completely tarnished the reputation of Carrie LAMs Government as a whole
政見可以不同，可以分成藍黃，但大家必定同樣不喜歡林鄭月娥。
While political views can be different and divided into the blue and yellow camps people definitely share the same dislike for Carrie LAM
最需要換走的人不走，還厚着臉皮出來告訴我們她會繼續領導特區政府。
The very person who should have been replaced has stayed and she has even shamelessly come forward to tell us she will continue to lead the SAR Government
現在很多食肆、零售商叫苦連天，原因正是林鄭月娥政府的政策朝令夕改，令人無所適從。
At present lots of restaurants and retailers have been moaning and groaning . It is precisely because of the frequent and abrupt changes in the policies of Carrie LAMs Government which have left people confused
主席，在香港目前的情況下，對於這份預算案，我們確實應該思考如何能夠更迅速、直接地協助市民。
President in light of the current situation of Hong Kong it is incumbent on us to think about how this Budget can offer assistance to members of the public more promptly and directly
在這份預算案的辯論尤其是二讀階段中，當然有反對和贊成的聲音，各有立場，而到最後大家會進行表決。
In this Budget debate particularly at the Second Reading stage there are certainly voices for and against it with different stances and Members will eventually put it to a vote
我們享有投反對票的自由，不容一些機構說三道四。
We have the freedom to vote against it and interference from certain offices is not welcome
主席，這亦關乎立法會的尊嚴。
President this is also to do with the dignity of the Legislative Council
在這裏進行的辯論中，我們希望透過不同方法令一些在席官員明白民間苦況。
In the debates held here we seek to make in different ways the attending public officers understand peoples plight
今天，我們未必能夠爭取一份更好、更能夠惠及全民的預算案，但我們把希望寄託在每位香港人身上。
Today we may not be able to fight for a better Budget which can benefit all people even more . Yet we put our hope in every Hongkonger
今次是我們在本屆任期最後一次審議預算案，亦即《撥款條例草案》的機會。
This is the last opportunity in our current term of office to consider the Budget ie . the Appropriation Bill
剛才香港工會聯合會的麥美娟議員的發言針對在當前的疫情下，扶助"打工仔"、中小企和自僱人士的一些措施，而我的發言則會宏觀地討論政治和全球經濟的問題。
Just now Ms Alice MAK from the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions FTU has made a speech focusing on some supportive measures for workers small and medium enterprises and self - employed persons during the present epidemic . And in my speech I will discuss political issues and global economic problems from a broad perspective
但問題是我們如何作出投票決定，如何做好監督的工作。
But the problem is how we make our decisions on voting and how we perform the monitoring role
我認為政府與議員之間是博弈關係。
I consider the relationship between the Government and Members of a gaming nature
政府需要爭取議員的支持來通過一些法案，包括撥款條例草案，因而會盡量答應議員一些要求，會盡量實行可行的或財政許可的措施。
The Government needs to strive for Members support for the passage of some bills including the appropriation bill so it will concede to some demands made by Members as far as possible and implement feasible and financially viable measures
議員亦盡力為政府做大量遊說工作，將市民的實際情況告訴政府。
Members will also make their best efforts to undertake a great deal of lobbying for the Government and relay the actual situations of people to the Government
比較可惜的是，本屆政府與本屆立法會初期曾經有這樣的良性互動，反對派亦然。
Rather regrettably there was such favourable interaction initially between the current - term Government and this Legislative Council including the opposition camp
這些訴求很多直接衝擊香港的法治體制，例如不起訴所有暴徒、暴力分子，並立即釋放他們，怎可能做到。
Most of such demands deal a direct blow to the rule of law regime of Hong Kong such as no prosecution against all rioters and violent persons and their immediate release . How can these demands be satisfied?
不論是外國的政治獻金，抑或本地的政治黑金，也會繼續綿綿不絕。
Be it political donations from overseas or local political black gold it will continue to flow in
我希望大家實事求是，循經濟方向來討論政府如何使用撥款。
I hope all Honourable colleagues will seek truth from facts and discuss from an economic perspective how the Government should use the appropriations
政府將撥款大灑在社會福利、教育和醫療方面，大家不會有任何異議。
The Government has allocated generous funding for social welfare education and health care . Honourable colleagues will not have any disagreement about it
因為過去大半年來有嚴重"黑暴"。
Because of the grave black - clad violence in the past half a year
如果暴力事件不是不斷升級，升級至本土恐怖主義的程度，我相信警方也不需要增加預算，特別是用於加強情報工作，防患於未然。
Had the violent incidents not been incessantly escalated to the extent of local terrorism I believe the Police would not need to increase its budget particularly for the purpose of stepping up intelligence work and taking precautions
其實，最近數次本土恐怖襲擊中沒有人死亡，是走運。
In fact it was luck that no death had arisen from the few recent local terrorist attacks
有人在醫院放炸彈，在火車站放炸彈，甚至寄炸彈給警務處處長，這些均是相當嚴重的罪行。
Bombs were placed in a hospital train stations and even sent to the Commissioner of Police . These were all rather serious crimes
警方甚至發現軍火庫，搜出過千發子彈及多支半自動手槍，甚至AR-15自動步槍，這些全部可以奪人性命。
The Police have even discovered a weapon warehouse and seized over a thousand bullets and a number of semi - automatic pistols including even AR - 15 semi - automatic rifles all of which can take lives
反對派繼續推動仇警情緒，撈取政治資本，吃盡"人血饅頭"。
The opposition camp continues to fuel the anti - police sentiment in order to fish for political capital reaping full benefits from the dead
再說，我們的警隊質素如何？
Furthermore what is the quality of our Police Force?
此外，加拿大的菲沙研究所也將香港警隊置於世界第六位。
Moreover Fraser Institute of Canada also put Hong Kong Police Force on the sixth place in the world
因此，香港警隊很值得大家支持。
For such reasons Hong Kong Police Force merits everyones support
當然，有個別事件處理不當，或者"樹大有枯枝"，警隊一定會嚴查。
Of course as regard the mishandling of individual incidents or a black sheep in the entire force the Police Force will definitely carry out rigorous investigations
正如最近的一宗案件，警隊正在嚴查。
For example the Police Force is investigating a recent case rigorously
另外，我想談談環球經濟。
Moreover I want to discuss the global economy
不過，我認同"懸崖"這個概念。
Nonetheless I concur with the concept of a cliff
會否出現新冷戰的風險呢？
Will there be the risk of a new Cold War?
另一方面，美國因為抗疫不力，現時經濟一塌糊塗，特朗普又打算印鈔、推出不負責任的量化寬鬆政策。
On the other hand due to inept efforts against the epidemic the economy of the United States is in a shambles . TRUMP also plans to print banknotes and introduce a quantitative easing policy irresponsibly
這樣引致貨幣"大洪水"，會否激發下一輪資產泡沫？
It will cause a great flood of currency and will it give rise to another round of asset bubbles?
上次的金融風暴過去後，政府好像挽救了市道，卻令樓價上升，市民的生活十分艱難。
After the financial turmoil last time the Government seemed to have rescued the market at the expense of hikes in property prices which caused great hardship on peoples livelihood
我希望司長要注意國際大格局。
I hope that the Secretary will pay attention to the overall global situation
因此，隱性失業也是很嚴重的。
Thus hidden unemployment is also very serious
然而，我比較樂觀，認為全球經濟格局"大洗牌"是一個挑戰。
Nevertheless I am relatively optimistic and consider the grand reshuffle of the shape of global economy a challenge
在疫情之下，歐美經濟接近停頓。
Given the epidemic the economies of Europe and the United States have almost come to a halt
我們的國家現時很努力，相信會比較快恢復。
Our country is making enormous efforts and will presumably recover faster
這個新挑戰其實會帶來新的機遇。
This new challenge will actually bring about new opportunities
正如2003年SARS期間，阿里巴巴的馬雲便掌握了很好的機會。
For example during the SARS outbreak in 2003 Jack MA of Alibaba seized a great opportunity
我覺得政府真的要重新考慮再工業化。
I believe the Government really should reconsider re - industrialization
這些公司就把握了"長尾效應"的需要，精準地應對客戶的需求。
These companies have capitalized on the long tail effect by accurately responding to customers demands
然而，如果推行再工業化，市民有工作，小企業、初創企業也可以有營商的機會，形成社會有向上流動性。
However if re - industrialization is taken forward people will have jobs while small enterprises and start - ups will have business opportunities thereby creating upward mobility in society
而且，香港也要重振創業的精神，這是很重要的。
Moreover Hong Kong should reinvent its entrepreneurship and it is very important
談到創業精神，我留意到政府會向創新及科技基金注資20億元，推行再工業化計劃，亦向香港科學園撥款20億元，把元朗一幢工廈改建為微電子中心，並在4月起優化科技券計劃。
On the subject of entrepreneurship I note that the Government will inject 2 billion into the Innovation and Technology Fund for the promotion of re - industrialization as well as allocating 2 billion to the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation for converting an industrial building in Yuen Long into a Microelectronics Centre . In addition the Government will enhance the Technology Voucher Programme from April onwards
可是，司長，這些措施可否更具靈活性，以鼓勵創意、創業呢？
However Secretary can such measures be implemented with greater flexibility so as to encourage creativity and entrepreneurship?
我舉個例子，創科創投基金的門檻原來很高，未投資承諾資本最少1億2,000萬元，一般微企、初創企業根本望門興嘆。
Let me give an example . The application threshold for the Innovation and Technology Venture Fund is indeed very high . A minimum remaining committed capital of 1.2 billion is required much to the chagrin of average micro enterprises and start - ups
馬雲最初也是與數人經營小生意。
Jack MA started out in running a small business with several people
疫情猶如一場大戰，大戰過後，舊的經濟部分會退出市場，一切百廢待興。
The epidemic is comparable to a great war . After the war the old components of the economy will fade away with many things waiting to be done
世界格局亦可能會迎來"大洗牌"。
The global setup will see a grand reshuffle
在這方面，我希望司長能夠再進一步做更多工作。
In this regard I hope the Secretary can take a step forward and do more
多謝主席，我謹此發言。
Thank you President . I so submit
主席，在談及這份財政預算案之前，我很想跟大家分享一下我今早閱讀的文章內容。
President before going into this Budget I would like to share with Members an article that I read this morning
有一位資深外國記者在電視上看到武漢疫情爆發後，很多病人及醫護人員日以繼夜地希望克服病情，醫治病人。
A veteran foreign journalist saw on television that after the start of the outbreak in Wuhan many patients and health care workers crossed their fingers day and night that they could overcome the disease and cure the patients
在整個過程中，即使面對厄困仍要在逆境中求存，要有自信心及積極的信念。
Throughout the process despite the adversities that they faced they still struggled hard for survival amidst the epidemic placing confidence in themselves and keeping a positive mindset
他說當他們這些西方記者或人民看到這些醫護人員與病人一起在病房內共舞，他們覺得可笑，但笑聲未完便已發覺病毒"殺到埋身"，這時才明白到原來在逆境中保持心境開放和積極信念，對醫治病情非常有用。
He said that reporters or people in the West like himself found it laughable when they saw these health care workers and patients dancing in the wards . But no sooner had their laughter subsided than they became aware of the imminence of the virus . Only then did they realize the importance of having an open mind and thinking positively in the face of the epidemic for this is most useful to the process of treatment
這個故事的中心思想告訴我們，人生悲歡喜樂是我們的一部分，當我們開心時，不用盡情大喜；當我們苦困時，亦不要完全失望，仍然要咬緊牙關，抱持積極信念。
This story tells us that life is sweet and bitter . In happy times let us not be overjoyed; in times of suffering do not feel despondent . We still have to fight with resilience and stay positive
對於這次的預算案，我當初看到也譁然，6,300多億元是很龐大的開支，佔香港GDP多達20%，會否與《基本法》第一百零七條有所抵觸？
With regard to this Budget I was shocked when I first read it for some 630 billion is a huge amount of expenditure accounting for as much as 20 % of the Gross Domestic Product or GDP . So will it constitute a breach of Article 107 of the Basic Law? . It is because under this Article the principle is to keep expenditure within the limits of revenues
因為這條文的理念是量入為出，但我們一定要明白這是特事特辦，不是每年都這樣做，還有的是香港不單正面對疫情，加上2019年"黑衣暴徒"令我們元氣大傷，可說是五勞七傷，現在是雪上加霜。
But we must understand that these are extraordinary measures taken in extraordinary times not something that we do every year . What is more Hong Kong now faces not only the epidemic . The black - clad rioters in 2019 had dealt a severe blow to us
第三，我們需要考慮資產增值稅，這有助減低炒賣樓宇的熾熱風氣。
Third it is necessary for us to consider the capital gains tax which can help curb the exuberance in property speculation
如果朱凱廸議員等人在現時資源如此豐厚之際也要埋怨，請他們到其他地方為當地的人吶喊，香港無須他們吶喊。
If Mr CHU Hoi - dick and his likes still have to complain when we have such abundant resources I would urge them to go elsewhere and shout aloud for the people there . Here in Hong Kong there is no need for them to shout aloud
我剛才聽到邵家輝議員特別提到派發1萬元的問題。
Just now I heard Mr SHIU Ka - fai mention particularly the distribution of the 10,000 handout
我人微言輕，未必能夠代表黨的立場，但對於"派錢"，我也有自己的看法。
As I am in a low position my words carry little weight and may not be able to represent the stance of my political party . Yet I have my own views towards the distribution of cash handouts
所有人均大聲要求"派錢"，但"派錢"容易、賺錢難。
Everyone is calling for the distribution of cash handouts . It is easy to give handouts but hard to make money
這未必是一個長治久安之策。
This may not be the way to maintain peace and stability in the long run
所以，邵家輝議員說得很對，我也認為自力更生、創造良好就業環境、自己養活自己才是最好的。
Hence what Mr SHIU Ka - fai has said is right . I also think that people should be self - reliant and it is most desirable to create a favourable employment environment in which people can support their own living
經濟環境好、多交些稅是一種光榮，我交1億元稅，代表我很厲害，賺到很多錢。
In a thriving economy it is an honour to pay more tax . If I have a tax bill of 100 million it means I am great and make a lot of money
我希望人人交稅，人人都有足夠的錢，更可以為別人付出，可以做更多善事，救濟社會上有需要的人。
It is my wish that everyone has to pay tax has enough money to spend is willing to give and does good deeds to help the needy in society
就防疫抗疫基金而言，在之前的財務委員會會議上，反對派、"攬炒派"提出中止待續議案，就政府的建議投下反對票。
As for the Anti - epidemic Fund AEF the opposition camp the mutual destruction camp puts forth an adjournment motion and voted against the proposal of the Government at a previous meeting of the Finance Committee
回顧去年6月的事件，當時全香港被破壞，包括破壞交通燈、堵塞馬路、放火，甚至連劫案也增加了。
Let us look back on the incidents in June last year . At that time a wave of destruction swept the entire territory of Hong Kong including damaging traffic lights road blockage and acts of arson and even a rise in robbery cases
我可能說得嚴重了一些。
I may have overstated the severity
我剛才也提到要自己養活自己，不希望依靠政府的支援金渡日，所以我希望特區政府多投放資源到漁農自然護理署，並與內地溝通。
I have mentioned the point of self - reliance earlier and people do not want to live on the support supplement of the Government . Hence I hope the SAR Government will allocate resources to the Agriculture Fisheries and Conservation Department AFCD and liaise with the Mainland . Fishermen from Hong Kong and Macao are subject to the regulation of two sets of laws when they go fishing
溝通問題非常重要，好的政策讓漁民可絕地求生。
Communication is extremely important . Good policies will enable fishermen to survive this desperate time
第二，說回農業的問題，當中最重要的當然是土地，而司長也曾擔任發展局局長。
Second I will return to the topic on agriculture . Land is definitely the key to agriculture . The Financial Secretary once served as the Secretary for Development
有些當然可能是被煽動的，有些可能真的不想改變，因為環境舒適及喜歡從事這個行業。
Certainly some of them may be incited by others . Yet it is true that some of them do not want any change for they consider the environment comfortable and like to engage in farming
問題在於，如果每次特區政府選定一些土地作發展用途時，例如洪水橋、元朗南或錦田等，也有數名農民反對，這樣是不行的。
The problem is that if there are always some farmers staging opposition when the SAR Government selects certain sites for development such as the cases in Hung Shui Kiu Yuen Long South or Kam Tin it is not going to work
