永劫回歸之無處不在
Saturday, June 30th, 2007
隨着七一臨近,永劫回歸加緊轟炸,唯有盡量避開本地電視台及報章。可是偉大的特區政府決意「普天同慶」,「恩澤萬民」,想逃也逃不掉。今天翻開《經濟學人》,赫然發現一個跨版廣告,一邊是維港煙花,寫着:「Hong Kong has much to celebrate!」另一邊則是特區政府示威宣言:
“One Country, two Systems”. Some said it wouldn’t work.
The Past 10 years have proved otherwise.We have retained all our fundamental practices- the rule of law,
an independent judiciary, a level playing field,
a clean and efficient civil service,
and the same rights and freedoms.We have the same values -pluralism,
an international outlook and a strong work ethic.We are still the prime gateway to China
and our economy is thriving.Hong Kong has good reason to celebrate.
署名是Asia’s world city: Hong Kong。
機關算盡,奈何這個廣告卻夾在《經濟學人》名為「One-horse race: A Special report on Hong Kong」中間,人家似乎是衝着這個廣告而來,報道一開始便說: “After ten years of Chinese sovereignty, Hong Kong’s economy is thriving. But politics, says Simon Long, remains a one-horse race.”
政府若真要普天同慶,倒不如全港市民免稅一年,或多加十天公眾假期。行行好,請不要再搞如此爛的宣傳。
