即使面對社會各界人士堅決反對，要求不要違反國際組織應有的誠信及國際規範，舉行"港獨"論壇，但外國記者會一意孤行，按計劃在這個敏感時期，讓陳浩天向全球宣揚"港獨"。
Even if people from various social sectors voiced their firm opposition urging FCC to refrain from holding a forum on Hong Kong independence in violation of the integrity required of an international organization and international norms FCC remained headstrong and allowed as planned Andy CHAN to publicize Hong Kong independence to the world at this sensitive juncture
結果，主席，陳浩天當天不單在論壇上大肆宣揚"香港獨立"的信息，呼籲英、美政府介入中國香港事務，其後更不顧廉耻去信美國總統，要求撤銷中國及香港的世貿成員身份，又要求檢討美國《香港政策法》，取消對香港的特殊待遇，嚴重損害香港和港人的利益。
As a result President at the forum Andy CHAN not only widely publicized the message of Hong Kong independence but also urged the governments of the United Kingdom and the United States to interfere in the affairs of Hong Kong China . Later he even shamelessly sent a letter to the President of the United States calling for cancelling the membership of China and Hong Kong in the World Trade Organization reviewing the Hong Kong Policy Act of the United States and strapping the special treatment accorded to Hong Kong in an attempt to seriously undermine the interests of Hong Kong and Hong Kong people
反之，對外國記者會馬凱先生不獲入境處簽發工作簽證這件事，反對派卻大做文章。
On the contrary regarding the refusal of the Immigration Department ImmD to renew the work visa of Mr Victor MALLET of FCC the opposition camp made a mountain out of a molehill
主席，根據香港出入境政策，入境處在處理每宗個案申請時，會按照法律和政策，考慮個案的特殊性後才作出審慎的決定，並且不會就個別個案作出解釋。
President under the immigration policy of Hong Kong when dealing with each application ImmD considers the special conditions of the case before making a prudent decision in accordance with laws and policies and it offers no explanation on individual cases
所以，任何人，即使是馬凱，都不應該有特殊的處理。
For this reason no people not even Victor MALLET should be accorded special treatment
此外，特區政府實施獨立的出入境政策，可以自行決定誰人可入境，誰人可獲發簽證，情況就像我們到其他國家要申請簽證，亦有機會被拒發簽證一樣。
In addition the SAR Government implements an independent immigration policy . It can decide on its own who can enter the territory and who will be issued visas as in the case that our applications for visas to other countries may also be rejected
所以，假如一個持有工作簽證的外國人支持"港獨"，甚至利用他的組織邀請"港獨"人士公開演說，明顯違反《憲法》和《基本法》，傷害中國人民的感情，他自然不受特區政府歡迎，入境處亦拒絕向他續發工作簽證。
As such if an expatriate holding a work visa supports Hong Kong independence and even uses his organization to invite a Hong Kong independence activist to give a public speech he has obviously violated the Constitution and the Basic Law and hurt the feelings of Chinese people . Naturally he will not be welcomed by the SAR Government and ImmD will also refuse to renew his work visa
主席，我認為這做法合法、合情、合理，合乎香港利益和各界人士的意願。
President I think this approach is lawful sensible and reasonable; it is in the interests of Hong Kong and complies with the aspiration of people from various sectors
毛孟靜議員動議的議案，除傳召保安局局長李家超及入境事務處處長曾國衞外，同時要求特區政府出示所有與馬凱事件相關的文據、簿冊、紀錄或文件，以及作證和提供證據。
The motion moved by Ms Claudia MO does not only seek to summon Secretary for Security John LEE and Director of Immigration Erick TSANG to attend before the Council but also request the SAR Government to produce all papers books records or documents and to testify or give evidence in relation to the Victor MALLET incident
但是，事實上，根據上述兩項條文動議的議案，正正是《基本法》賦予立法會的憲制 權利和職權，藉以向政府提出質詢和監察政府。
However in fact moving a motion under the two articles stated above is precisely the constitutional right and duty conferred on the Legislative Council by the Basic Law the purpose of which is to raise questions to and monitor the Government
我支持這項議案的原因，正正是要行使這項憲法權利，而這亦是議員不可推卸的職責。
The reason for me to support this motion is precisely the need to exercise this constitutional right which is also the unshirkable responsibility of Members
正如多位議員指出，這件事件關乎重大公眾利益及香港的基本言論自由和新聞自由，並且引起新聞界、商界和國際社會前所未見的反應。
As rightly pointed out by a number of Members this incident involves significant public interests and Hong Kongs fundamental freedom of speech and freedom of the press; and it has drawn unprecedented reaction from the press business sector and international community
如政府不主動公開相關理據，我們如何履行立法會賦予我們應有的憲制責任？
If the Government does not take the initiative to make public all the relevant justifications how can we discharge the constitutional responsibility conferred on the Legislative Council?
提交上述文件有何作用？
What is the purpose of producing the above mentioned documents?
時至今日，政府仍未有白紙黑字說明拒絕入境的理據。
The Government has so far failed to explain in black and white the reasons for denying Victor MALLETs entry
政府只是一直表示不評論個案和不披露原因。
The Government has only been reiterating that it would neither comment on individual cases nor disclose any reasons
張建宗司長在10月8日作出回應，指特區政府的做法與國際做法一致，但英國領事館已即時反駁。
Chief Secretary Matthew CHEUNG responded on 8 October that the SAR Governments practice was in line with the international practice only to be refuted by the United Kingdom Consulate immediately
隨着時間的過去，政府高層官員不時會在回應時多說一兩句，以至出現越來越多不同的版本。
With the passage of time senior government officials have from time to time added one to two lines in their responses resulting in the emergence of an increasing number of different versions
特首林鄭月娥在施政報告phone-in節目中被問及有關原因，她新增了一個評論，指入境政策也有一條線。
When asked about the reasons in a phone - in programme on her Policy Address Chief Executive Carrie LAM added one more comment saying that the immigration policy has to follow a bottom line as well
再者，在10月22日，林鄭月娥接受日本放送協會訪問時表示，特區政府只是依法辦事。
Furthermore on 22 October in an interview by Nippon Hoso Kyokai Carrie LAM said that the SAR Government has just been acting in accordance with the law
然後她又似是而非地補充一句，指"國際間沒有絕對的自由"。
Then she also added a specious remark arguing that there would be no absolute freedom in the international community
如是者，她認為香港有多大程度的自由？
If that is the case how much freedom does she think is being enjoyed in Hong Kong?
高層官員一而再、再而三說出不同的版本，令人難以看到政策的一致性。
Senior officials have time and again given different versions of responses making it impossible for people to notice any policy coherence
有議員可能誤會這項議案旨在向政府官員問責；局長也在席上聽我們發言。
Some Members may have the misunderstanding that the motion seeks to hold government officials accountable; the Secretary is also in the Chamber to listen to our speeches
但是，我相信毛孟靜議員要處理的是更根本的問題，並非要向官員問責和追究責任，而是要透過要求政府出示紀錄和文件，向香港市民以至國際社會還原事件的真相。
However I believe Ms Claudia MOs intent is to tackle a more fundamental problem instead of holding officials accountable and responsible . The request for the Government to produce records and documents is to uncover the truth of the incident to Hong Kong people and the international community
近年，政府經常表示要依法辦事。
In recent years the Government has reiterated the need to act in accordance with the law
政府既不提供理由，又阻礙當事人行使上訴的權利，違反了法律公平性的原則。
Without giving any reason the Government has even prevented the person concerned from exercising his right to lodge an appeal hence it has violated the principle of equality before the law
入境處審批工作簽證時須考慮某些原則。
In vetting and approving employment visa applications the Immigration Department has to consider certain principles
"個別情況"這個說法，為政府留有後路，對其認為敏感的申請人作彈性處理。
The phrase individual circumstances has given the Government leeway to handle applicants deemed sensitive with flexibility
我再翻查1998年的一項質詢，當時議員問及入境處拒絕入境的準則。
I have then retrieved a question raised by a Member in 1998 regarding the Immigration Departments criteria for refusing entry
當年政府的答覆沒有"因應個別情況作出考慮"這一句。
The expression take into account the individual circumstances of each application was not found in the Government reply back then
當局真的有需要進一步澄清，或請當時的局長即今天坐在我前面的葉劉淑儀議員澄清，為何1998年沒有"因應個別情況作出考慮"這一句。
It is really necessary for the authorities to further clarify why the expression take into account the individual circumstances of each application was not found in the 1998 reply . The then Secretary Mrs Regina IP who is sitting in front of me today may also help clarify
馬凱申請工作簽證時，我不知道這項條件至今是否仍然適用。
When Victor MALLET applied for an employment visa I wonder if this requirement is still applicable today
如適用的話，新聞及採訪自由及評論自由對香港整體是否有益處？
If it is is freedom of the press of news coverage and of discussion beneficial to Hong Kong as a whole?
我們利用立法會平台傳召官員作供及要求政府出示文件和披露有關內容，目的是要釋除國際社會的疑慮。
By means of the Legislative Council platform we have summoned public officers to testify and requested the Government to produce documents and disclose relevant content . Our purpose is to allay the concerns of the international community
第一，打擊新聞自由。
First freedom of the press will be prejudiced
我們至今仍未談到問責及調查，我們只是要求當局出示文件，以便向公眾證明保安局及入境處拒絕批出工作簽證是有根據和合理的。
We have so far not even touched on accountability and investigation . We have only requested the authorities to produce documents to prove to the public that the Security Bureau and the Immigration Department have made a grounded and reasonable decision in rejecting the application for employment visa
然而，有人認為，今次個別事件無損 香港的新聞自由。
However some people have argued that this individual case will not jeopardize Hong Kongs freedom of the press
他們指出，目前的資料十分有限，不足以證明香港的新聞自由已經受損，呼籲大家不用反應過大。
They have claimed that the materials available are too limited to prove that Hong Kongs freedom of the press has been jeopardized; and they have urged against overreacting
不少國際通訊社、行銷全球的報章和海外廣播公司都在香港設立區域總部或辦事處......充分反映香港作為金融、工商和通訊中心的重要地位"。
Many international news agencies newspapers with worldwide circulation and overseas broadcasting companies use Hong Kong as their regional headquarters or set up offices here a strong reflection of Hong Kong as a centre for finance business and communication
對於今次馬凱被逐，新聞界自然會憂慮特區政府日後會否加倍仿效大陸的做法。
The eviction of Victor MALLET has inevitably raised concern in the press over whether the SAR Government will follow the practice of the Mainland more often in future
在馬凱事件發生後不久，一家國際傳媒機構舉行區域性會議。
An international media organization had planned to hold a regional conference shortly after the occurrence of the MALLET incident
今次事件關乎特區政府審批工作簽證的政策，影響投資者的信心和營商環境。
The incident has a bearing on the policy of the SAR Government relating to the vetting and approving employment visa which will affect investors confidence and the business environment
邱騰華在上星期六表示，香港國際經貿空間不是單由報章頭條決定，其實他只是為政府自圓其說。
Mr Edward YAU said last Saturday that Hong Kongs room for international trade was not simply determined by newspaper headlines . In fact he was simply trying to justify what the Government has done
美國商會發表聲明，指任何壓制新聞自由的舉動，均破壞香港作為領先金融和貿易中心的競爭力。
The American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong has issued a statement claiming that any move to suppress freedom of the press will diminish Hong Kongs competitiveness as a leading financial and trade centre
香港自詡具備合適的國際營商環境，但審批工作簽證的準則卻極欠透明度。
While Hong Kong boasts about its suitable environment for international trade its criteria for vetting and approving visas have been far from transparent
這不單影響他們來港的決定，亦令國際社會質疑北京和香港是否真的有落實"一國兩制"。
Not only will foreigners decision to come to Hong Kong be affected the international community will also question whether Beijing and Hong Kong have genuinely implemented the one country two systems policy
政府應藉今次機會，全面公開有關理據，挽回國際社會的信心，除非政府認為沒有此必要。
The Government should take this opportunity to fully publicize all the justifications in order to restore the confidence of the international community unless the Government considers that it is unnecessary to do so
代理主席，議員今天的辯論圍繞入境政策和工作簽證的問題，而世界各地的入境政策如何呢？
Deputy President Members debate today is centred on immigration policy and work visas . What about the immigration policy of various places in the world?
香港的入境政策也相同，我們執行有效的出入境管制，歡迎訪客，匯聚人才。
This is also the case with the immigration policy of Hong Kong . We welcome visitors and attract talents by implementing effective immigration control
入境簽證制度讓我們可以處理外地人士申請來港旅遊、就業、投資、受訓、居留或學習。
The immigration visa regime allows us to deal with applications made by non - locals for coming to Hong Kong for sightseeing employment investment training residence or education
高等法院上訴法庭在1992年的一宗案件中已清楚指出，入境事務處處長就外國人出入境和逗留申請的決定是行政決定，不需就此給予理由。
The Court of Appeal of the High Court clearly indicated in the judgment on a case in 1992 that the decision made by the Director of Immigration on the application for entry exit and stay of a foreigner is an administrative decision and no reasons need to be offered in this regard
香港居民經常會出外旅遊或公幹，有些人也會被其他國家或地方拒絕入境，而外地政府沒有責任向特區政府作出通報，事實上也沒有通報機制。
Hong Kong residents often travel abroad for sightseeing or business purpose and some of them may be refused entry by other countries or regions . Foreign governments are not duty - bound to make reports to the SAR Government and there are no reporting mechanisms in actuality
此外，雖然很多泛民人士很不喜歡這說法，但按照國際慣例，各地出入境管制當局一般不會就個別個案的決定，詳細解釋具體理由或其他細節。
Furthermore even if many pan - democrats dislike this saying but according to international practice the immigration control authorities of various places generally offer no specific reasons for or other details of decisions on individual cases
代理主席，每天有很多香港人因為各種需要前往各國領事館，例如到美國領事館，申請入境簽證，而我們經常聽到有香港人無法獲取簽證。
Deputy President each day many Hong Kong people go to the consulates of various countries such as the American consulate for various purposes such as apply for entry visas and we often hear that some Hong Kong people cannot get a visa
英國外相甚至公然表示，如果香港政府不作緊急解釋，便會認為馬凱不獲續簽工作簽證是基於政治原因。
The British Foreign Secretary even blatantly indicated that if the Hong Kong Government failed to provide an urgent explanation he would consider that the refusal to renew the work visa of Victor MALLET was attributed to political reasons
外相不愧為出色政治家，可以把我剛才指出一件世界各國當然包括英國出入境政策的平常事，說成好像是一件非比尋常的大事。
The Foreign Secretary is indeed an excellent politician in that he has treated an ordinary issue relating to the immigration policy of various countries―certainly including the United Kingdom―I mentioned just now as an extraordinary and major issue
事實上，大部分國家拒絕外國人士入境時，大都基於政治原因、國家安全理由或公眾利益。
In fact most countries refuse the entry of foreigners mainly for political reasons or out of consideration for national security or public interests
過去多年來，歐美多個國家的政府當然包括英國政府基於政治原因、國家安全理由或公眾利益，甚至有可能不予任何理由，每年不知道拒絕多少名外國人士入境。
Over the years the governments of various countries in Europe and America―certainly including the British Government―refused the entry of an unknown number of foreigners for political reasons or out of consideration for national security or public interests . No reasons whatsoever were offered in certain cases
我隨便在網上搜查，就已經找到一些英、美政府沒有給予理由而拒絕傳媒工作者的入境簽證個案。
After surfing the Internet randomly I could easily find certain cases in which governments in Europe and America refused to issue entry visas to media workers without giving any reasons
今年3月，加拿大記者薩瑟恩被英國拒絕入境，英國內政部明言，若認為該人對英國的公共利益沒有好處，就有權拒其入境。
In March this year Canadian journalist Lauren SOUTHERN was denied entry by the United Kingdom . The Home Office of the United Kingdom made it clear that if a person was believed to be prejudicial to the public interests of the United Kingdom it would exercise its power to deny his or her entry
另一宗個案，梁美芬議員剛才也提到，2017年10月，也門女記者、國際自由新聞獎得主納賽爾被美國當局拒絕入境，美國國務院以簽證紀錄保密為由，拒絕置評。
In another case which Dr Priscilla LEUNG has also mentioned just now in October 2017 Yemeni female journalist Afrah NASSER winner of the International Press Freedom Award was denied entry by the authorities of the United States and the United States Department of State refused to give any comments on the grounds that visa records must be kept confidential
在2016年12月，加拿大攝影記者準備前往美國，採訪環保分子和土著反對興建輸油管示威事件，被美國拒絕入境。
In December 2016 a Canadian press photographer who prepared to travel to the United States to cover protests by environmentalists and Native Americans against the installation of an oil pipeline was denied entry by the United States
在2016年1月，梁議員剛才也提到，英國廣播公司女記者拉納被美國拒絕入境，當局沒有解釋。
As indicated by Dr LEUNG just now in January 2016 BBC female journalist Rana RAHIMPOUR was denied entry by the United States and the authorities offered no explanation
在2009年，黎巴嫩記者伊巴謙被英國政府以"不符合公眾利益"為由拒絕入境，當局沒有解釋。
In 2009 Lebanese journalist Ibrahim MOUSSAWI was denied entry by the British Government for the reason that his presence would not be conducive to the public good and the authorities offered no explanation
在2003年2月，伊拉克官方通訊社駐聯合國記者阿拉維被美國政府以"從事危害美國安全的活動"為由驅逐出境，並需要與其家人在15天內離開美國，當局沒有解釋。
In February 2003 Mohammed ALLAWI the correspondent at the United Nations for the official Iraqi news agency was ordered by the American Government to leave the United States with his family members within 15 days on the grounds that he had been engaged in activities considered to be harmful to the security of the United States and the authorities offered no explanation
香港回歸前的1991年，台灣資深媒體人張友驊隨台北記者代表團來香港發表演講，批評英國政府的外交政策在一些國家造成混亂，港英政府政治部立即限令他在48小時內離境。
In 1991 when Hong Kong had yet to return to the Motherland Taiwanese media veteran CHANG Yu - hua came to Hong Kong with a Taipei journalist delegation and made a speech criticizing the foreign policy of the British Government for causing chaos in certain countries . The Special Branch of the British Hong Kong Government immediately ordered him to leave the territory within 48 hours
外國政府真有趣，他們行使入境權力便理所當然、合情合理，但香港政府做時卻要緊急解釋、公開交代，難道香港真的好欺負嗎？
Foreign governments are really funny in that their exercise of immigration power is considered to be natural sensible and reasonable but when the Hong Kong Government has taken the same action they demanded an urgent explanation and an account to the public . Is it that Hong Kong is really a pushover?
在這樣的情況之下，馬凱先生在不足兩星期之後，邀請民族黨召集人陳浩天作客，在香港外國記者會的會所以"香港民族主義"為題，宣揚違反《基本法》的"港獨"主張。
Under such circumstances in less than two weeks Mr MALLET invited Andy CHAN the convenor of HKNP to give a talk at the premises of the Foreign Correspondents Club Hong Kong FCC on Hong Kong Nationalism to publicize his proposition on Hong Kong independence which is in contravention of the Basic Law
剛才楊岳橋議員說，馬凱先生沒有開口提倡"港獨"，所以不應該有問題。
Mr Alvin YEUNG said just now that Mr MALLET did not openly promote Hong Kong independence so there should be no problem with him
我不再重複梁議員剛才的觀點。
I will not repeat the viewpoints raised by Dr Priscilla LEUNG just now
外交部駐港特派員公署事前已經要求主辦方撤回邀請，但對方一意孤行，堅持邀請陳浩天演講，為"港獨"搭建宣傳的平台。
Before the talk the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Peoples Republic of China in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region had already urged the organizer to withdraw its invitation but the latter remained headstrong and insisted on inviting Andy CHAN to deliver a speech thus building a publicity platform for Hong Kong independence
在演講中，陳浩天一再宣揚獨立是香港達致真正民主的唯一途徑，還聲稱香港是一個國家，尋求獨立是抵抗中國殖民入侵。
In his speech Andy CHAN indicated time and again that independence was the only way for Hong Kong to achieve genuine democracy and he further claimed that Hong Kong was a country and seeking independence was to resist Chinese invasion and colonization
這是在煽動本港的年輕一代，希望在香港散播"港獨"的種子。
He was instigating the young generation of Hong Kong with the hope of spreading the seeds of Hong Kong independence in Hong Kong
這種行動本身是在挑戰我們的國家安全、主權、《基本法》及"一國兩制"，是政治挑釁。
Such an action was in itself a challenge to the security and sovereignty of our country the Basic Law and one country two systems . That was political provocation
馬凱先生來港作客，卻不尊重香港這位主人家，這是否太過分呢？
Mr MALLET being a guest to Hong Kong failed to respect Hong Kong as his host; was he acting outrageously?
另一方面，有議員剛才亦提到類似的觀點，即有關活動根本與傳媒工作者的身份毫不相干。
On the other hand some Members raised a similar view that is the relevant event was by no means related to the status of media workers
在國際人權公約之下，新聞自由受制於維護國家安全的法律，為何新聞工作者在報道新聞以外的行為，卻不需要尊重有關國家、地方的法律呢？
Since freedom of the press is subject to laws on safeguarding national security under the international treaties on human rights how come media workers need not respect the laws of a country or a region in their actions other than covering news events?
難道記者有天子令牌，可以為所欲為？
Do journalists have an imperial permit that allows them to do whatever they like?
沒有，當時沒有，今天亦沒有。
No intervention was not made at that time and at present
新聞自由受損從何說起？
How can one say that freedom of the press has been undermined?
假如馬凱先生不獲續簽工作簽證真的與他推動陳浩天演講會有關，也只是基於他以會所主辦人身份舉辦活動的行為，與新聞工作完全無關。
Even if the refusal to renew the work visa of Mr MALLET was really related to his facilitation of Andy CHANs talk it was only related to his hosting of the event as a leader of FCC and was not related to news reporting at all
再者，根據《基本法》第四十二條，在香港的外籍人士有遵守特區實行的法律的義務。
In addition pursuant to Article 42 of the Basic Law expatriates in Hong Kong shall have the obligation to abide by the laws in force in SAR
特區的法律包括《基本法》，亦當然包括《基本法》的第一條，即特區是中華人民共和國不可分離的部分。
The laws of SAR include the Basic Law and certainly include Article 1 of the Basic Law which stipulates that SAR is an inalienable part of the Peoples Republic of China
代理主席，事實上，香港傳媒人過去被封殺，泛民同事沒有發聲，為何他們守護言論自由、新聞自由的態度會有所分別呢？
In fact Deputy President in previous cases where Hong Kong media workers were banned pan - democrats failed to voice their support for them . Why do they adopt different attitudes towards safeguarding freedom of speech and freedom of the press?
我不知他們是否還記得，基本法委員會委員劉迺強先生多年前遭到《信報》暫停專欄，負責與他聯絡的編輯稱文章的立場、角度有問題。
I wonder whether they still remember that Mr LAU Nai - keung a member of the Committee for the Basic Law had his column suspended by the Hong Kong Economic Journal years ago . The editor responsible for liaising with Mr LAU said that there were problems with the stances and perspectives in his articles
劉迺強先生當時向香港記者協會投訴，但交涉無果，記協沒有發聲，沒有幫忙。
Mr LAU Nai - keung then lodged a complaint to the Hong Kong Journalists Association HKJA but to no avail . HKJA made no voice and failed to lend a helping hand
劉先生當時說自己是被滅聲的活生生例子，但泛民議員處理此事的方法截然不同，難道劉迺強先生不是親泛民人士就視若無睹，馬凱先生是外國傳媒人，他們就要全力叫陣？
Mr LAU then said that he was a vivid example of a media worker being forced to shut up but pan - democratic Members adopted a completely different approach in handling that incident . Is it that they turned a blind eye to Mr LAU Nai - keung because he was not pro - democracy and they fully support Mr MALLET because he is a foreign media worker?
過去一段時間，泛民政黨在"港獨"問題上的表現，實在令我覺得非常失望。
Over the past period of time I am really disappointed with the actions taken by pan - democratic parties in handing Hong Kong independence
在"港獨"的問題上，泛民政黨一直在"賣口乖"，他們回應的第一句永遠是不認同"港獨"主張，接着話鋒一轉，說支持或不反對與"港獨"關係非常模糊的"自決"。
On the issue of Hong Kong independence pan - democratic parties have been paying lip service . The first sentence in their response is invariably that they do not endorse the advocacy of Hong Kong independence but then they abruptly change the topic saying that they support or do not oppose self - determination which is vaguely associated with Hong Kong independence
不論是在保安局取締民族黨的個案上，還是在"港獨"學生團體在學校宣傳"港獨"的問題上，或這次外國記者會邀請"港獨"人士宣揚"港獨"的事件上，泛民政黨都是顧左右而言他，轉移視線，說特區政府侵犯言論自由、新聞自由，或國家安全凌駕基本人權，擔心日後可以隨意打壓任何政黨。
It does not matter whether the case is about the eradication of HKNP by the Security Bureau or Hong Kong independence student groups publicizing Hong Kong independence at schools or FCC inviting a Hong Kong independence activist to publicize Hong Kong independence pan - democratic parties always beat around the bush and create red herrings such as accusing the SAR Government of violating freedom of speech and freedom of the press or expressing their concerns over national security overriding basic human rights or the arbitrary suppression of any political party in the future
大家細心想想，在我剛才所說一連串牽涉"港獨"的事件上，泛民有否譴責推動"港獨"的行為？
Members please think carefully . In the series of cases I mentioned just now involving Hong Kong independence have the pan - democrats condemned actions that promote Hong Kong independence?
他們如果擔心其他問題，可以說出來，但在整個論述當中，從來沒有譴責"港獨"的行為、推手，每次只是轉移視線，攻擊遏制"港獨"的特區政府。
If they are concerned about other issues they can spell them out but in their discourse they have never condemned any action to promote Hong Kong independence . In all the cases they invariably created red herrings and attacked the SAR Government that sought to combat Hong Kong independence
這些根本就是姑息"港獨"的行為，我希望泛民議員清醒一下。
They are basically indulgent towards Hong Kong independence . I hope pan - democratic Members will have a clear mind
因此，代理主席，我及民建聯的議員堅決反對毛孟靜議員動議的議案。
For this reason Deputy President I and other Members of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong firmly oppose the motion moved by Ms Claudia MO
主席，近年有數宗專上院校學生在校園內示威並演變成衝突的事件。
President in recent years there were several incidents in which demonstrations staged on campus by students of tertiary institutions developed into confrontations
