SECRETARY FOR FOOD AND HEALTH CLERKS IN ATTENDANCE: MRS CONSTANCE LI TSOI YEUK-LIN, ASSISTANT SECRETARY GENERAL MRS PERCY MA, ASSISTANT SECRETARY GENERAL LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 17 March 2011 8039 MEMBERS' MOTIONS PRESIDENT (in Cantonese): Members who are having their breakfast are giving their support to a slow food culture with their actions. We will begin the debate on the second motion without legislative effect. PRESIDENT (in Cantonese): Second motion: Promoting a slow food culture. Members who wish to speak on the motion debate will please press the "Request to speak" button. I now call upon Mrs Sophie LEUNG to speak and move her motion. PROMOTING A SLOW FOOD CULTURE MRS SOPHIE LEUNG (in Cantonese): President, I move that the motion, as printed on the Agenda, be passed. President, by a slow culture food culture it does not really mean eating slowly. As a matter of fact, "slow food" is used as an antithesis to fast food. I am sure there are people among us who have never heard about the term "slow food" before. But I am sure they all know what fast food is. "Slow food" is so named because of a movement began by an Italian culinary guru called Carlo PETRINI to resist the fast food culture. He was concerned about the fact that not only had fast food changed our food culture but also our lifestyle as well. It also caused an impact on the ecology. So he started this slow food movement and went to places all over the world to preach the slow food culture. I am not talking about food today. I wish to talk about food education, that is, the culture and education of food and about food. It is a way of life underpinned by the way we eat. About this idea of how food changes the way we think and even the person we are, this is what a French gourmet master who used to say, "You are what you eat." A respect for food is a core value of the slow food movement. We can see that tonnes of food are wasted every day in Hong Kong. This shows that the 8040 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 17 March 2011 attitude we have towards food is not at all correct. Many people just want to fill up their stomach, or they want to eat quickly, or they may want to try different kinds of food, and so they do not treat food with their heart. They do not respect it. Or they may use too much seasonings and condiments that cover the true flavour and taste of food. At times, I would wonder if this is because the food concerned is not fresh enough. The result is that the problem of obesity in people has become a great challenge for every modern society. Kids in many developed countries love nothing other than fast food. This is because their parents only care about convenience or because they simply do not know anything about the culture of food. At times, I would think whether we are really savouring the taste of food, or we are trying to gratify our taste buds with condiments. A respect for food makes us care more about the source of food and its quality. A slow food culture advocates cutting the food mileage, that is, the carbon footprints. It emphasizes the use of locally available ingredients and materials for food. Hong Kong is a culinary capital. We can find all kinds of ingredients and materials for food right here. But we have to notice that the shipment of food, no matter it is by trucks or by airplanes, would invariably produce carbon emission. So as we want to eat good food, do we have to eat food from thousands of miles away? Should we think that only exotic food is good? As a matter of fact, the simple and rustic kind of food is what we call good food. Also, people just want to gratify their taste buds and care nothing about the culture of food. A million kinds of technology are used to interfere with the growth of things consumed as food. In the past, we did not do this kind of thing. We would eat what is seasonable. But now we use the greenhouse ― and that is another source of carbon emission ― to enable plants which we consume as food to grow all the year round. Sometimes hormones and other kinds of chemicals are used to make plants look good. Or genetic engineering is employed to make plants look incredibly attractive. When such things are done, do we know that apart from satisfying our senses, we are causing a lot of pollution and burden to planet Earth? If we really know how to respect food, we would waste less. Recently, there are discussions in society on the issue of food waste. Food waste is caused by our wastage of food. We often see in restaurants how people leave a lot of LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 17 March 2011 8041 food uneaten, which is then thrown away. This is because what remains on the table cannot be used again. Come to think about this. Farmers work hard in growing the food we eat, and cattle and sheep also need a long time to grow up before they reach the meal tables. In order to meet the needs of humans for food, these cattle and sheep are often made to grow faster or they may be made to put on weight artificially. So I think that we must put in more efforts and educate people about the culture of food. If we know how food should be respected, and if we can pause and think and hence conclude that we do not really need to consume so much food, then we do not have to be on diet or fear that we may get diabetes or a stroke. And it would not be necessary to ship so much food waste to the landfills. I understand the question which many people may have on their minds.

  • Monthly Report HK
    January 2011 in Hong Kong 31.1.2011 / No 85 A condensed press review prepared by the Consulate General of Switzerland in HK Economy + Finance HK still ranked world's freest economy: HK remains the world’s freest economy for the 17th straight year and ranked 1st out of 41 countries – according to a report released by the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal. The city’s score remains unchanged from last year at 89.7 out of 100 in the 2011 Index of Economic Freedom, with small declines in the score for government spending and labour freedom offsetting improvements in fiscal freedom, monetary freedom, and freedom from corruption. The report said HK is one of the world’s most competitive financial and business centres, demonstrating a high degree of resilience during the global financial crisis. City casts off shadow of global financial crisis: HK's economy is rebounding from the aftermath of the global financial crisis, with the public coffers enjoying the first eight-month surplus in three years. The latest announcement showed a far better financial picture than the government had forecast. In his budget speech in February, Financial Secretary John Tsang projected a net deficit of HK$25.2 billion for the current financial year. However, consensus estimates among most accounting firms now put the full financial year budget at a surplus of at least HK$60 billion. The reserves stood at HK$537 billion as of November 30, compared to HK$455.5 billion a year earlier. HK jobless rate falls to 4pc: HK's unemployment rate declined from 4.1 per cent in September to November last year to 4.0 per cent in October to December last year.

It covers the period from 1 July to 31 December 2003. This was an eventful period for Hong Kong. It started with the largest demonstration since the handover, when some 500,000 people took to the streets on 1 July, shortly before the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Government was intending to enact controversial national security legislation. The fact that half a million people could demonstrate so peacefully (there was not a single arrest) is of great credit to the people of Hong Kong. This determined and dignified expression of commitment to uphold Hong Kong’s rights and freedoms was admired and commented upon internationally.

  • Chapter XV : Security 87 15.1 at the Chairman's Invitation, the Secretary
    Chapter XV : Security 15.1 At the Chairman’s invitation, the Secretary for Security (S for S), Mr Ambrose LEE, briefed members on the main initiatives of the programmes under the Policy Area: Security (Appendix V-13). Strength and establishment Civilianization of posts 15.2 In response to Mr James TO’s enquiry on the civilianization of posts within the disciplinary services, S for S explained that civilianization of posts, the objective of which was to simplify organisational structure and deploy resources more flexibly, was not new to the disciplinary services. Under the current fiscal deficit, the disciplinary services would continue to pursue this measure. A Steering Committee which was chaired by the deputy head of department had been set up in every disciplinary service to identify potentials of civilianization. As the Steering Committees had yet to finalize their recommendations, it was not possible to quantify the civilianization of posts at the present stage. Members would be informed of the position when the Committees submitted their reports in June 2004. Responding further to Mr TO, S for S said that while there were no set targets for the civilianization of posts, each disciplinary service should strive to make the best use of its available resources. He assured members that the civilianization of posts would not in any way compromise the effectiveness and efficiency of services rendered to the public. Mr TO said that he would support the civilianization of posts on the understanding that this would not affect the delivery of service to the public. Deletion of posts 15.3 Ms Emily LAU noted the number of posts to be deleted in the various disciplined departments in 2004-05.
