為會議而生存!


為會議而生存!

進入了立法會不久便有一種為會議而生存的感覺。建黨以後,這感覺更甚!試過一天有八個會議的紀錄;這不包括早餐會、午飯及晚飯的應酬。很多時立法會須要出席的會議更會是同時進行,令我疲於奔命。不要以為週末會好一些,不須要工作的週末其實絕無僅有。
但話又說回來,我是不喜歡遊手好閒的人。有工作總比沒工作好。可是前兩天看了政府提交現今立法年度的立法預算也嚇了我一跳。27條草案竟然有18條是我負責和有興趣的!加上七八個事務委員會、特別小組如雷曼兄弟迷你債券、外傭稅、傷殘人仕交通優惠、黨及支部各種大大小小的會議、泛民的內部會議.........
有時真想叫救命!只希望身邊的人不要怪我脾氣不好。這是我的藉口,請見諒!

Hahaha you're attempting to justify your bad temper... anyway, that is understandable!
Anyway, a piece of advice - it isn't enough that you do a lot. You must also let your voters know that you do a lot. People are not as wise as you might imagine to obtain information about your work since information cost is always too high. Man, I appreciate what you do certainly, but publicity is also too hard a fact for politics... you gotta add oil!

Thanks! Seems I don't just need add oil but a PR specialist!gmail.com

The following is a comment from someone in HK reporter.com, and I need to agree the strategy is very important. But, I will not say your party is damaging the democratic movement!! Let's give your party the benefit of doubt, it is only 2 years. And hope you all will do better!!
“組織公民黨之原意是希望擴闊民主運動,納入一些以前對民主政制不大感興趣的中產及專業人士。經過兩年的努力,在這方面算是有少少進展。想不到換來的,卻是破壞民主運動的指摘。”

我沒有懷疑公民黨的成立是爲了想推動民主運動,不過有良好願望不等於就有良好的手段。
一不小心,不良的手段會帶來與良好願望相反的結果!
湯大狀是否需要反省一下他們的做法是有害民主運動的推進呢?

hmm...... hahaha, it's the old saying, does Ronny's action necessarily reflect what Civic Party thinks? OK the first part is meant to be a joke. Well I think the person is referring to the Martin Lee incident... for god sake, the whole incident can actually be elaborated in a much better way, removing all ambiguities therein... anyway, I believe in Civic Party. I believe the group of people in CP who's given their heart to promote democracy in HK. There are so many interpretations of what they've done to achieve the goal. Some say the means is bad; some say not. But after all, we should really be looking at the goal we're achieving. If we know we're only going to be suppressed by the Mainland China concerning democratic development, does throwing a banana help? Or should something innovative yet helpful be done?

Can we all think more critically?
