愧為香港人!


看着正生書院與梅窩居民的「對話」之電視廣播,我不期然感到心如刀割。什麽時候我們變得如斯自我?什麽時候我們忘掉了包容、寬恕、關懷這些香港核心價值?什麽時候我們與同情心告別,向嘲笑、歧視重新立志投身社會的青少年招手?

看到那些鄉事領袖,那些區議員不敢向選民說不,我感到心痛;但最令我心痛的,是那些為人師表、為人父母的,以孩子為政治工具,一本正經的向着傳媒說:「好當然是好,但最好還是不在這裡!」

在這一刻,我愧為香港人!

以前會慶幸自己是香港人,可惜見到在咨詢大會的梅窩居民,見到很醜惡的人性,唔,怪不得在外國人眼中,中國人無論生活在那裡,都是中國人!要受人尊重的從來不是金錢,而是人格與道德!

there's no excuse for the mui wo residents to act the way they did, especially the name-calling against the kids from the school.
but my concern is how the government is pushing forward the proposal. they just made up their minds about mui wo before briefing the idea to the residents and made the consultation process meaningless. on the other hand, the heung yee kok's offering of an alternative in kwai chung seems to be a more flexible approach.
shouldnt the government act in the way the hyk does by offering choices to people affected when it wants to insert a school, an incinerator, a power plant or any institute at a place? convincing people to accept a government decision is one thing, but forcing it down their throat is another.

Don't get fooled by the Heung Yee Kuk's approach. They're the ones behind this all. The matter has been on the agenda for over 2 years and granted Government is not doing its bit, the so-called "alternative" sites are not suitable for the school at all, both in terms of their teaching method (isolation from the city) and the space (they now have over 200 students and this is a boarding school). By raising at this late hour you are giving the residents a false hope and will only make them more intransigent and make the whole thing more unmanageable!

如同劉佩瓊教授的說法一樣,鄉議局所提出的所謂建議方案,就是荒謬透頂,一句到尾就是確保"正生"入不到場而已.絕對同意Ronny said the so-called "alternative" sites are not suitable for the school at all,我家住鰂魚涌,男童院就在街口已幾十年啦,又有何不可?再說下去,可能又有人表示,不去考慮其他方案,不算是獨裁嗎?近幾星期的初中生因濫藥而出事的新聞,真是近幾個星期的現象嗎?這個根本就是由非普選的政府搞出來的"大頭佛",忍惡揚威,仿傚祖國為榮;1/7/2009是大家用行動去提醒特衰政府的吉日!!!

i wasn't aware of the fact that the issue has been two years old. but exactly as you have said, the government isn't doing its bits. what bugs me most is the way the government is pushing forward with the school relocation without giving alternatives. maybe the hyk has their own hidden agenda, that's the way the government should have adopted. talk before proposing a site, not trying to convince the residents after decision making.
btw, i live in quarry bay too and as mei puts it, the boy's home down kings road was merely invisible to the community, but i am not comparing the boy's home with cheng seng.
