As the discussion of the captioned
Bill which reflects the HKSAR's obligation under Article 23 of the
Basic Law is coming to a close, I wish to gauge the general opinion
of Accountants as an important reference for my vote. Your participation
is crucial to me so that I can act faithfully.
The Bill is, unfortunately, a bit
of a moving target due to its complexity and lateness. At the time
of writing, there is still an active debate in the Bills Committee
as to its exact content and that I would have to vote on more than
100 amendments. However, in addition to the extensive media reports,
I would like to draw you attention to the following useful references:
-
my website: www.ericli.org
which regularly provides a simple summary of terminology etc;
-
LegCo website: www.legco.gov.hk
and search its Bills Committee for the comprehensive records of
the bills brief and public submissions etc.;
-
The attached article ¡§Unification
of Mind and Deeds¡¨ which is my attempt to give a balanced
critique of the updated version of the Bill and the ensuing political
process.
I hope you can draw your conclusions
objectively and help me to resolve this highly divisive issue. Please
identify yourself as an accountant for the vote to be counted. Many
thanks and best wishes,
Eric
