District councillor Herman Kwan Ho Yiu, jailed over anti-extradition bill case, finally arranged to take oath on Wednesday
政府去年分批安排全港區議員宣誓，但大埔區議員姚鈞豪因身在獄中未能參與，出獄後亦一直未收到有關通知。姚鈞豪向《獨媒》表示，今日收到民政事務局通知，將安排他在後日出席宣誓儀式 。據悉監誓人為署理民政事務局局長陳積志。姚表示不會預計宣誓結果，但指仍有很多社區計劃想做，又若自己做不到，「希望大家都可以接力做落去」。
The Government arranged for district councillors across Hong Kong to take their oaths in batches last year, but Tai Po District Councillor Herman Kwan Ho Yiu was unable to participate because he was in prison and had still not received any notification after his release. Herman Kwan Ho Yiu told The Stand News that he received notification from the Home Affairs Bureau today that he would be arranged to attend an oath-taking ceremony the day after tomorrow. The officiating officer is reportedly Acting Secretary for Home Affairs Jack Jick Chi Chan. Yiu said he would not speculate on the outcome of the oath-taking, but noted that he still had many community projects he wanted to carry out. If he could not do so, he hoped that “everyone could take turns carrying them forward.”
