調查指6成受訪外傭受苛待仍不解約 憂被指跳工不獲簽證
The Immigration Department has stepped up efforts to tackle job-hopping among foreign domestic helpers, with 2,833 cases refused visas last year on grounds of job-hopping. A survey by a domestic helpers’ union found that 46% of respondents had experienced harsh treatment, including working 17 to 19 hours a day and insufficient food. However, 62% of them had not terminated their contracts, with most fearing that the Immigration Department would refuse to approve their visas on grounds of job-hopping.

民主黨無意參加立會補選
Four Election Committee constituency Legislative Council members recently joined the Government, and the authorities will hold a by-election.

教育局:除非跌跛腳或患重病,否則必須參加
The Legislative Council Subcommittee on National and National Security Education held its first meeting. Leung Hei of the Democratic Alliance for Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong noted that although the citizenship subject requires secondary students to participate in mainland exchange tours, whether they pass the subject does not affect their Diploma of Secondary Education Examination results. He expressed concern that the tours could become a policy pursued without seeking results. Secretary for Education Christine Choi said the aim was to help students understand the country by reducing examination pressure, and therefore learning outcomes were not assessed by marks. Deputy Secretary-General Tsui Wah Hong Chan added that the exchange tours were compulsory activities: “Unless you’ve fallen and broken a leg or are seriously ill, basically there’s no opting out.”
立法會國民及國安教育小組委員會舉行首次會議。民建聯梁熙提到,公民科雖要求中學生必須參加內地交流團,惟該科目成績合格與否並不影響文憑試成績,憂交流團淪為不求成果的政策。教育局局長蔡若蓮回應指,希望透過減少考試壓力,幫助學生了解國家,故不以分數衡量學習成效;副秘書長康陳翠華則補充,交流團是必須參加的活動:「除非係跌跛咗隻腳或者重病,如果唔係基本上冇得opt out」。
