The wish lists
Last two weeks, I submitted three wish-lists of various
issues to the HKSAR government, and also to the Central
government:
CEPA3 According to the normal working practice, the
Central and HKSAR Government will start a new round of CEPA
discussion very soon. To enable the HKSAR government officials
to have a better understanding of industry's aspiration on
CEPA3, I arranged a meeting with Mr. John Tsang, Secretary for
Commerce, Industry and Technology, and representatives from 8
IT bodies on April 19, 2005.
At the meeting, I have submitted a CEPA3 wish list concerning 9 important IT
issues that the HKSAR government should address at the CEPA3
discussion with the Mainland.
Wireless Technology To promote the Wireless and Mobile Technology
Industry, I and 4 wireless-related IT organizations -Hong Kong
Retail Technology Industry Association, Hong Kong Wireless
Technology Industry Association, Internet & Telecom
Association of Hong Kong, Wimax Forum Asia Pacific have
jointly submitted a paper to the Digital 21 Strategy Advisory
Committee on 26 April 2005.
Interpretation of the Basic Law
Last week, I and several Democratic Party
members were invited to attend a forum on Interpretation of
the Basic Law which was hosted by Mr. Qiao Xiaoyang , the
deputy secretary-general of the NPC Standing Committee.
At the event, I spoke the reasons why interpretation of
the Basic Law do undermine Hong Kong's rule of law and
"One-country, Two system". I also handed a submission to Mr. Qiao for urging the NPC
Standing Committee not the proceed the HKSAR government's
request on impending interpretation.
