Election Forum · New Territories North East | Candidates quiz each other on ecotourism — Wai Ping Ku: Lantau Island is at the same latitude as Hawaii… Unable to participate in media forums? Erick Tsang: I haven’t heard of that

選舉論壇・新界東北|互問生態旅遊 古偉冰:大嶼山緯度同夏威夷一樣⋯ 不能參與傳媒辦論壇? 曾國衞:我唔聽到有

The second “government-organised forum” for the Legislative Council election was held this afternoon (11th). The first forum this morning featured “no debate in the debate segment”, while the five candidates in New Territories North East questioned one another in the afternoon. New People’s Party candidate Dominic Lee asked United Front candidate Wai Ping Ku for his views on promoting ecotourism across Hong Kong. Wai Ping Ku said Lantau Island is at the same latitude as Hawaii and suggested that the Government improve transport infrastructure to avoid a situation like that at East Dam. Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Erick Tsang, who attended both forums, said the forums were “ideal”. Asked about reports that some candidates had been instructed not to participate in forums organised by the media, Tsang said: “I won’t comment on that point, and I haven’t heard of such a situation.”

立法會選舉今午(11日)舉行第二場「官辦論壇」。今早首場論壇出現「辯論環節零辯論」,下午新界東北五名候選人,有互相質詢。新民黨李梓敬問工聯會古偉冰,對生態旅遊在全港推行有何見解?古偉冰表示,大嶼山緯度跟夏威夷一樣,建議政府完善交通基建,避免出現東壩的情況。兩場論壇均有現身的政制及內地事務局局長曾國衛指,論壇情況「理想」。被問及有傳部分候選人收到指示,不能參與傳媒舉辦的論壇,曾國衛說:「呢點我唔評論,我亦都唔聽到有咁嘅情況。」

Restaurants and business sector plan offers for voters; O'Sullivan and Director of Immigration make Cantonese video urging people to vote

施榮懷:食肆商界擬為投票市民提供優惠 奧蘇利雲同入境處長拍片 廣東話籲投票

The government, organisations and business sector have been promoting the Legislative Council election in recent days. Irons Wing Wai Sze, chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Beijing Associations and a member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, was interviewed yesterday while handing out election leaflets at a street booth. He said some restaurants planned to offer discounts to people who had voted, while the business sector was also discussing shopping offers. A media outlet asked Chief Secretary for Administration Eric Chan Kwok-ki yesterday whether offering discounts to voters would be illegal. He said the election legislation set out what constituted illegal conduct, and that when companies offered discounts or leave, they could not ask voters to vote for individual candidates. Chan Kwok-ki said the election legislation set out what constituted illegal conduct. Irons Wing Wai Sze said he had encouraged members who ran businesses to give half a day’s leave to encourage employees to vote, with the general response being positive. He also said he knew of more than a dozen restaurants planning to offer discounts—for example, holders of voting cards could receive 20% or 15% off their meals—and that the business sector was discussing more offers, such as admission or shopping discounts at the Hong Kong Brands and Products Expo.

政府、社團、商界連日宣傳立法會選舉。香港北京社團總會會長、全國政協常委施榮懷噚日喺街站派選舉單張時受訪,話有食肆打算為投咗票嘅市民提供優惠,商界都商討緊購物優惠。有傳媒噚日問政務司長陳國基,為投票市民提供優惠會唔會犯法,佢就話選舉條例寫明何謂犯法行為,而企業提供優惠或假期時,唔可以叫選民投畀個別候選人。 陳國基:選舉條例寫明何謂犯法行為 施榮懷話已經鼓勵有營商嘅會員放半日假,以鼓勵員工投票,普遍反應理想。佢又話已知有十幾間餐廳計劃提供折扣,例如持投票卡可享食飯八折或八五折優惠,商界都商討緊更多優惠,例如工展會入場或購物優惠。

Honours | Chan Ka-shun, originally awarded Silver Bauhinia Star, excluded from Saturday’s ceremony; government says water procurement inquiry has no result

陳嘉信授勳|原獲頒銀紫荊 周六授勳典禮「被缺席」 政府:購水紀律調查未有結果

Chan Ka-shun, the former Director of Government Logistics who was embroiled in a controversy over the government being duped in a water purchase, was included in this July’s honours list and awarded the Silver Bauhinia Star. The investiture ceremony will be held on Saturday (15th).

Pending its outcome, Chan Ka-shun would not be included in the attendance list for the investiture ceremony, and the government had informed him.

捲入政府買水被呃風波的前政府物流服務署署長陳嘉信,今年七月已在授勳名單內,獲頒授銀紫荊星章,頒授典禮周六(15日)舉行。不過,政府發言人今(11日) 回應傳媒查詢指,正就採購飲用水事件作紀律調查,未有結果前,勳銜頒授典禮出席名單,將不包陳嘉信,政府已知會了他。

LegCo election | All 161 nominations valid; Vivian Kong clears vetting; Eric Chan says voting for any candidate is a free choice

立法會選舉|161 參選人提名全有效 江旻憓過關 被問會否影響認受性? 陳國基:投邊位係自由選擇

The Legislative Council election will be held on December 7. Eric Chan, chairman of the Candidate Eligibility Review Committee and Chief Secretary for Administration, said today (10th) that the committee had confirmed the validity of the nominations of all 161 candidates. Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Erick Tsang said 39 “Patriots Together Governing Hong Kong Election Forums” would be held from tomorrow. Asked whether public doubts about some candidates’ links with their respective sectors would affect the election’s legitimacy, Chan said, “Which candidate voters choose is their personal choice.” He said voting for any candidate was completely confidential and that he did not think the election’s legitimacy was in doubt.

立法會選舉將在 12 月 7 日舉行,候選人資格審查委員會主席、政務司司長陳國基今(10日)表示,資審會確認 161 名參選人提名有效。政制及內地事務局局長曾國衞表示,明日起會舉行 39 場「愛國者同心治港選舉論壇」。被問及公眾質疑某些候選人跟業界聯繫,會否影響選舉認受性?陳國基表示,「選民投邊一位,係佢個人意願」,投哪一位絕對保密,「唔覺得」選舉認受性有懷疑。

Light Public Housing “Cutting Corners” | Modules Moved for Reinstallation; Buildings Department Says Contractor to Bear Costs as Shortened Screws and Enlarged Panel Holes Are Uncovered

簡約公屋「減料」|直擊模組挪開待重裝 建築署:承建商承擔費用 剪短螺絲、擴大板孔位置解構

Multiple structural installation problems, including shortened screws and enlarged holes in steel-plate connections, have been found at three Light Public Housing sites. The Buildings Department submitted an independent investigation report to the government last week and instructed the contractor to carry out remedial work, including moving and reinstalling the modules concerned, and to bear the related costs. After inspecting the sites over the past month, reporters from The Collective found today that modular integrated construction (MiC) components at the Chai Wan site had been moved from their original positions.

三個簡約公屋地盤出現多個結構裝置問題,包括螺絲被剪短、鐵板連接洞被擴大。建築署上周向政府提交獨立調查報告,並責成承建商補救,包括挪開及重裝涉事模組,及承擔相關費用。《集誌社》記者過去一個月到地盤視察,今日發現柴灣地盤有組裝合成單位組件(下稱MiC組件),已被移離原本位置。

Are dining discounts for voters bribery? Chan Kwok-ki says it is “not a problem” if no candidate is specified

投票食飯有著數屬賄選?陳國基指無提議投給誰「呢個就無問題」

Chief Executive John Lee earlier made a “strong appeal” for companies to introduce measures to facilitate employees’ voting, prompting different businesses and organisations to come up with various ways to boost turnout. The media reported that some restaurants were offering discounts to voters. For example, people carrying a voting “appreciation card” could receive discounts, while one Chinese restaurant offered voters a 20% discount as a reward. Asked whether such conduct was illegal, Chief Secretary Chan Kwok-ki said election laws clearly stipulate that discounts cannot be offered to induce people to vote for a particular candidate. “If you have not suggested [a candidate], then there is no problem,” he said. Citing arrangements for leave after voting as an example, he said: “You vote, and then we give you leave; it’s not that you can take leave only if you vote for a particular person.”

特首李家超早前「強力呼籲」企業推出便利員工投票措施,不同企業和組織各出奇謀谷高投票率。傳媒報道,有食肆為投票者提供折扣,若持投票「心意卡」的人光顧,可獲折扣優惠,例如有中菜館推出八折酬謝投票者。以上行為有無犯法?政務司司長陳國基就表示選舉法例清晰指出,不可以提供優惠誘使投票給某一候選人,「你無提議到,呢個就無問題嘅」,他舉例投票後放假安排,「投咗票咪放假畀你囉,就唔係話你投某一個先至可以放假」。

Vivian Kong cites “horse racing tourism” to explain tourism-sector ties, tells returning officer she helped build sports-tourism complex

江旻憓舉「賽馬旅遊」述旅界聯繫 覆選舉主任查詢 稱參與將馬場打造旅體綜合體

Olympic fencing gold medallist Vivian Kong filed her nomination on Monday (the 3rd) to contest the Tourism sector of the Legislative Council, prompting public interest in her ties to the tourism industry. The newspaper reviewed Kong’s nomination form, in which she declared herself a Hong Kong Jockey Club manager of external affairs, a former fencing athlete and a Standing Committee member of the All-China Youth Federation to demonstrate her “close connection” with the tourism sector. The returning officer emailed Kong on the night she filed her nomination, asking her to explain how her relevant experience was connected with the tourism industry. Kong replied by email the next day, saying, “As the first Olympic gold medallist in women’s fencing, I believe sports and tourism can be integrated across sectors.” She cited projects related to “horse racing tourism”, including the Jockey Club’s “horse racing tourism ecosystem” project, which “successfully turned Sha Tin Racecourse into a top sports-tourism complex in Asia”. The Registration and Electoral Office said eligibility would await the Candidate Eligibility Review Committee’s announcement. In response to enquiries about whether it accepted Kong’s explanation, and the factors and conditions considered in determining whether candidates had a close connection with their sector, the office said all candidates had to meet statutory requirements and have their candidacy confirmed by the committee. The committee will consider the matter after the nomination period ends and announce the results.

提名截止35現屆議員棄選 謝偉俊、洪雯「無聲」出局

The nomination period for the Legislative Council election has ended, with 161 people registering to run. Of the 89 incumbent lawmakers, 35 have opted not to seek re-election, with more than half having served only one term. Six of those who opted out waited until the final moment to decide, all from the Election Committee constituency. Jesse Hailong Shang, Yueheng Tan and Yueming (1957) Chen only confirmed that they would not seek re-election about an hour before the deadline for submitting nomination forms. Leung Yuk-wai issued a “farewell declaration” after the nomination deadline, while Paul Tse and Hung Wan have still made no announcement.

立法會選舉提名期結束,共有161人報名參選,現屆89名議員,有35人放棄競逐連任,起過半數只做了一屆議員。棄選議員當中有6人把懸念留到最後時刻,全部來自選委界。其中尚海龍、譚岳衡與陳月明在交表時間截止前一小時左右,才證實不會再選,梁毓偉在提名限期過後發出「告別宣言」,謝偉俊與洪雯則仍未作任何公布。

LegCo election | Election Committee sector Jesse Hailong Shang, Yueming (1957) Chen, Leung Yuk-wai and Hung Wan will not seek re-election

立法會選舉|選委界尚海龍、陳月明、梁毓偉、洪雯不競逐連任

The nomination period for the Legislative Council election has ended, with 161 nomination forms received. Election Committee-sector legislator Hung Wan did not stand for re-election. In a social media post in the evening, Hung wrote: “People come and go; gatherings and partings each have their time. The Legislative Council is entering a new phase, and I too am about to begin a new chapter in my life.” She thanked those who had supported her and added, “Every ending is a new beginning.” She said that although her Cantonese was “neither fluent nor polished”, people here had not treated her as an outsider, but had continued to trust her and given her opportunities to realise her aspirations, including entering the Legislative Council. She said some of her policy proposals had begun to receive recognition, adding that behind every figure and every case she cited in debates in the chamber were the public’s hopes for social mobility and a better life. She said: “Over the past four years, I have given my all without reservation and made 100 per cent of the effort—I have no doubt about that.”

立法會換屆選舉提名期結束,共接獲161份提名表格。選委會議員洪雯未有參選連任。洪雯晚上在社交媒體指,「緣來緣去,散聚有時;立法會要進入新階段,我的人生亦要開展新一頁」,感謝支持過她的人,又說「Every ending is a new beginning」。她說雖說自己廣東話「唔鹹唔淡」,但指這裡沒有把她當外人,反而持續信任她,給機會實現理想,包括進入立法會。她指自己的部分政策倡議,開始獲得認同,而她因為在議事廳辯論中引用的每一個數據、每一個案例,背後都是市民對階層跨越及美好生活的期盼,指自己「過去四年毫無保留拿出了全部的誠意、盡了百分百的努力——這一點,我毫無疑問。」

HKUST editorial board Screening: FEHD Says It Received a Complaint and Conducted an On-Site Inspection

科大編委放映會 食環署指收投訴上門巡查

HKUST editorial board held its annual film screening tonight. On the day, a university department notified it that Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) staff would conduct an inspection before the screening. At about 6 p.m., FEHD staff arrived outside the venue with university department staff, saying they had received a complaint that editorial board was holding a screening possibly open to the public without applying for an entertainment licence, and asked editorial board members to produce film authorisation documents. FEHD said it had also viewed editorial board’s social media and noted that its screening poster and event registration stated that the event was open only to HKUST students and staff. It reiterated that the visit was a routine inspection and reminded editorial board members to ensure that those admitted were HKUST students and staff. FEHD staff subsequently entered the screening to film it and then left the venue. Ng Ho-wai, editor-in-chief of the Editorial Board, said he was deeply disappointed by what he described as an unreasonable complaint. He said the screening was intended to provide an activity for HKUST students generally, and that the complaint was simply an “unfortunate mishap” and “baseless nonsense”. He pledged that the Editorial Board would continue, within the legal framework, to provide students with quality and diverse activities to enhance their critical-thinking skills. Student Union president Lee Chun-yin said the screening was an ordinary activity, stressing that it was open and complied with Hong Kong law. He hoped that students attending the screening would reflect on the position of the media in Hong Kong and learn to assess the impact of news on society. Under the Public Amusements Ordinance (Chapter 172 of the Laws of Hong Kong), “public entertainment” means any entertainment to which the public is admitted, including screenings, concerts and lectures, regardless of whether an admission fee is charged. No person may operate or use any place of public entertainment without a public entertainment licence. Offenders are liable to a fine and imprisonment for six months.

科大編委今晚舉行一年一度的電影放映會,在當日接獲學校部門通知指將有食環處職員於放映會前巡查。食環處職員於當日約六時與學校部門職員一同到達放映會場地外,並指接獲投訴指編委有放映活動疑對公眾開放,並未有申請娛樂牌照,要求編委成員出示電影授權許可。 食環處指亦瀏覽過編委的社交媒體,留意到編委的放映會海報及活動報名有寫只向科大學生職員開放,重申今次只是循例巡視,並叮囑編委成員需確保入場的是科大學生及職員。其後食環處職員進入放映會拍攝,其後離開現場。 編輯委員會總編輯吳浩瑋表示對被無理投訴深感遺憾。他指放映原意是為廣大科大學生提供活動,被投訴純屬『無妄之災』 『無稽之談』並承諾編輯委員會將繼續在法例框架下為學生提供優質以及多元的活動,以提升學生的思辨能力。 學生會會長李俊諺則回應指,放映會只是平常的活動,強調活動公開及符合香港法例,並希望參與放映會的同學能夠反思傳媒於香港的地位,能夠學識判斷新聞對社會的影響。 根據香港法例第172章《公眾娛樂場所條例》公眾娛樂 (public entertainment)指讓公眾入場的任何娛樂,娛樂包括放映會、音樂會、演講等,不論是否收取入場費,任何人沒有獲得公眾娛樂牌照,不得經營或使用任何公眾娛樂場所。違者將被罰款及監禁六個月。
