The discussion begins with the outline of the history of the Macanese bilingualism. The author then examines the crucial distinction between the language in the law and the law in the language. By analogy to European Community and other bilingual legal systems, this article identies the characteristic of Macanese mulitlingualism. This article concludes with suggestions about a new approach and the role of universities in resolving the matter. I. INTRODUCTION My experience as a comparatist in Macau reminds me of the “accommodation method” rooted in the Jesuit missionary activity, an activity aimed at diffusing Christianity all over the world and addressing complex religious and cultural challenges. Matteo Ricci used to adapt himself (“accomodare” 1 ) to the Chinese context, dressing as a Confucian monk, learning Chinese language and philosophy and overall finding similarities and harmonies in classical Chinese texts with Christian teachings.

In addition, under the Regulation of Organisational Structure of the IACM and the General Regulation of Public Areas, the IACM is responsible for monitoring progress with roadworks. However, regarding approval of construction period and calculation of exact number of construction days, the department had long been failing to exercise its control. The audit report also disclosed irregular situations with IACM, in which supervisory staff overstepped their superior’s authority to approve suspension of roadworks, resulting in IACM’s inability to better understand and solve all overdue cases. In order to maintain good communication with the audit industry and get to know the newest information related to auditing, in September, the Commissioner of Audit, Ho Veng On, attended as an observer the Fifth Conference of the Supreme Audit Institutions of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (OISC/CPLP) held in Funchal-Madeira, Portugal, and presented a paper entitled “The Role of Audit Institutions in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. In November, the Commissioner of Audit, Ho Veng On, led a delegation to attend the Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau Audit Conference 2017 organised by the Audit Office of Guangdong Province in Meizhou, and exchanged views on audit issues of mutual concern with the Director of the Audit Commission of Hong Kong and the Director General of the Audit Office of Guangdong Province.

    January 2016 NEWS COVERAGE PERIOD JANUARY 25TH TO JANUARY 31ST, 2016 PROTESTERS DEMAND PROPER SHARE FOR GB IN CPEC Dawn, January 25th, 2016 ISLAMABAD: A large number of people belonging to Gilgit-Baltistan, including members of the area’s legislative assembly, on Sunday held a protest demonstration in front of National Press Club demanding proper share in China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). They also demanded that GB should be declared the fifth province of Pakistan so that the people of the backward area could get their basic rights. The protest was organised by the Youth of Gilgit-Baltistan, a non-political platform representing the youth of the area. Speaking on the occasion, member of the legislative assembly, Kacho Imtiaz, said people of GB could not get their basic rights even after 68 years. “We had passed a resolution in the legislative assembly that there should be three hubs of CPEC in GB but only one station is being given to us for loading and unloading of goods. Moreover, no industrial zone is being set up in GB,” he complained. Another MLA, Haji Rizwan, said basic rights should be ensured for the people of GB. “Moreover, the government of PML-N should implement the National Action Plan (NAP) in its letter and spirit and take action against terrorists instead of using the law for its own benefits,” he said. The protesters also demanded that Gilgit-Baltistan should get representation in the National Assembly, Senate and the National Finance Commission. Talking to Dawn, chairman of the GB Youth’s coordination committee, Hasnain Kazmi, said the government should give basic rights to the people of GB.
