First question. Sea Pollution Caused by Sunken Vessels 1. MR WONG YUNG-KAN (in Cantonese): Madam President, in view of the recent incidents in which river trade vessels from the Mainland sank in Hong Kong waters and caused sea pollution, will the Government inform this Council of: (a) the existing legislation governing the activities of this type of vessels in Hong Kong waters; (b) the number of incidents in which this type of vessels sank in Hong Kong waters in the past three years; and the measures to reduce such incidents; and (c) the respective numbers of prosecutions and convictions in the past three years against the owners of sunken vessels which caused sea pollution? SECRETARY FOR ECONOMIC SERVICES (in Cantonese): Madam President, (a) All vessels which operate in Hong Kong, be they local vessels, ocean-going vessels or river trade vessels from the Mainland are subject to control under the Shipping and Port Control Ordinance and its subsidiary legislation. The Ordinance sets out the provisions that all vessels operating in Hong Kong waters have to comply with, including the arrival and departure procedures for vessels, loading/unloading arrangements, speed limit and navigation safety requirements. (b) In the past three years, the number of accidents involving river trade vessels from the Mainland sinking in Hong Kong waters are as follows: 1684 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 1 December 1999 1997 1 case 1998 9 cases 1999 (January to November) 17 cases We have conducted an analysis of the 17 accidents that occurred in 1999 and found that seven of them were related to adverse weather while the remaining ones were caused mainly by mechanical failure of vessels and ship masters. The Administration has taken the following measures to reduce accidents involving river trade vessels in Hong Kong waters: (i) improving the statutory framework for regulating local vessels To improve the safety, control and regulation of local vessels, the Merchant Shipping (Local Vessels) Bill introduced into this Council in March was subsequently enacted in July this year. The new Merchant Shipping (Local Vessels) Ordinance seeks to improve the regulatory framework of local vessels by simplifying the classification of vessels; strengthening the regulation of the stowage and securing of cargoes on board; more transparent safety survey standards; and extension of compulsory third party insurance to all local vessels operating in Hong Kong waters including licensed river trade vessels. This new regulatory regime will enhance the regulation of local vessels in Hong Kong waters. We are drafting the relevant subsidiary legislation which will be put before this Council as early as possible. (ii) Strengthening ties with marine authorities of the Mainland The Director of Marine and his colleagues frequently hold meetings with the officials of the Mainland's marine authorities to discuss matters of mutual concern. In recent meetings, we have conveyed our analysis of the ship sinking accidents to the mainland side. In addition, we have raised for discussion the need to tighten up the monitoring of vessel maintenance and enhancement of crew training. LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 1 December 1999 1685 (iii) Increase the capability of monitoring of river trade vessels in Hong Kong waters The Marine Department is taking steps to establish a new river trade vessel control centre to streamline the procedures for processing the entry and exit of river trade vessels. If necessary, the control centre will impose specific requirements and assign routes for river trade vessels during their operations in Hong Kong waters. The control centre will also stipulate navigation safety requirements to strengthen the monitoring and control of river trade vessels operating in Hong Kong waters. The control centre is expected to come into operation next year. In addition, we are planning to introduce an automatic vessel identification system to strengthen our monitoring functions on vessel navigation. The new system is expected to come into service in 2002. In addition, the Kwai Chung marine traffic control station that came into operation last month has helped to improve marine traffic control in the Kwai Chung area. (iv) Step up patrol In the first 11 months in 1999, we have carried out some 74 000 hours of harbour patrol, representing an increase of 34% compared with the same period in 1998. (v) Enhance education and promotion To familiarize operators of river trade vessels with the latest port regulations and development, Marine Department organizes seminars in the mainland ports and Hong Kong. In the first 11 months of 1999, we have held nine such seminars with attendance of over 1 000 persons. (c) In the last three years there has not been any prosecution against owners of sunken river trade vessels which caused sea pollution. However, we have conducted nearly 6 000 inspections on board these vessels and initiated more than 500 prosecutions for offences other than causing sea pollution during the last three years.

  • The Status of Cantonese in the Education Policy of Hong Kong Kwai Sang Lee and Wai Mun Leung*
    Lee and Leung Multilingual Education 2012, 2:2 http://www.multilingual-education.com/2/1/2 RESEARCH Open Access The status of Cantonese in the education policy of Hong Kong Kwai Sang Lee and Wai Mun Leung* * Correspondence: waimun@ied. Abstract edu.hk Department of Chinese, The Hong After the handover of Hong Kong to China, a first-ever policy of “bi-literacy and Kong Institute of Education, Hong tri-lingualism” was put forward by the Special Administrative Region Government. Kong Under the trilingual policy, Cantonese, the most dominant local language, equally shares the official status with Putonghua and English only in name but not in spirit, as neither the promotion nor the funding approaches on Cantonese match its legal status. This paper reviews the status of Cantonese in Hong Kong under this policy with respect to the levels of government, education and curriculum, considers the consequences of neglecting Cantonese in the school curriculum, and discusses the importance of large-scale surveys for language policymaking. Keywords: the status of Cantonese, “bi-literacy and tri-lingualism” policy, language survey, Cantonese language education Background The adjustment of the language policy is a common phenomenon in post-colonial societies. It always results in raising the status of the regional vernacular, but the lan- guage of the ex-colonist still maintains a very strong influence on certain domains. Taking Singapore as an example, English became the dominant language in the work- place and families, and the local dialects were suppressed. It led to the degrading of both English and Chinese proficiency levels according to scholars’ evaluation (Goh 2009a, b).
