Barking mad over Hong Kong dogs

[dArKeR]

Hong Kong's Constitutional Development Task Force, headed by Chief Secretary for Administration Donald Tsang (???), visited Beijing earlier this month to discuss political reform in the territory. After Tsang, this "bad element remaining from the British days" who enjoys much prestige among the public but has been left suspended in mid-air by Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa (???), won his appointment, he hinted at his local awareness by saying that he grew up eating Hong Kong rice and drinking Hong Kong water. The report he presented on his return from Beijing, however, shows that he obtained nothing for the people of the territory and the "imperial edict" he brought back has instead stirred up great waves.

Although he only met with lower officials -- Xu Ze (??), the deputy director of the State Council's Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office and Li Fei (??), vice chairman of the Legislative Affairs Commission under the National People's Congress -- and a group of hired academics because no higher officials showed any concern for Hong Kong, the message he brought back was weighty and caused people in the territory to loose their breath.
