第一篇:中新社香港7月29日电 香港特区行政长官梁振英29日谈及
中新社香港7月29日电 香港特区行政长官梁振英29日谈及“占领中环”行动时表示,守法和犯法之间没有中间地带,全香港都应该守法。
梁振英指出,设计和发起“占中”的人承认这是犯法行动,“我想任何一位政府人员,或者任何一位守法、不想犯法的市民都反对这么大规模的犯法行为。”
当天,领导“政改咨询专责小组”的特区政府政务司司长林郑月娥,与“占中”行动的3位发起人会面。事后她对传媒表示,不认同“占中”的手段和目标。
林郑月娥指出,其手段是“占中”,甚至瘫痪中环,会为中环带来日常运作上的不便。她向3位发起人反映了商界、社会团体及市民的忧虑,直言不认同违法行为。
至于“占中”的目的,林郑月娥说,是要让中央和特区政府“屈服”,或威逼有关方面接受他们的(特首普选)方案,她认为这个目的是不能达到的,所以劝说发起人三思。
林郑月娥强调,如果要落实普选行政长官,必须回归到基本法,以基本法和全国

各位部長、總幹事拉米先生、常務理事會主席Mohamed大使、各位代表、各位嘉賓:
首先,熱烈歡迎各位蒞臨香港。中國香港得以主辦世界貿易組織第六次部長級會議,深感榮幸。
這個星期,我們有一個非常難得的機會,共聚一堂,優化現有的國際貿易環境;為全球各地更廣泛地創造財富;而最重要的,是幫助貧困地區數以億計的人民脫離貧窮。我很高興中國香港今天能牽頭肩負這項崇高任務。
世貿對全球極具重要性。世貿是處理全球貿易規則的唯一國際組織,它讓149個成員得以根據既定規則商討貿易協定,解決貿易紛爭。
保護主義和貿易歧視,往往導致較貧窮、較弱勢地區陷入經濟困境,而世貿是對抗保護主義和貿易歧視的主要力量。世貿最終更是全球合力消除貧窮飢餓,達至聯合國千年發展目標的力量。
世貿對香港的重要性不容置疑。香港地方細小,屬外向型經濟體系,除了擁有一個優良的深水港外,別無其他天然資源。全憑積極發展自由貿易,以及港人的奮勇拼搏、勤勉進取,這個昔日的小漁村,才能蛻變成為今天的國際及區域商貿樞紐。
因此,我請各位在未來數天及在會議之後,抽點時間看看我們這個亞洲國際都會,這樣你們便會明白,為甚麼克林頓總統說,香港是全球互補互惠,益處無窮的明證。
香港作為貿易自由的先驅,毫無保留地支持多邊貿易制度。早在一九八六年,香港成為關貿總協定的獨立締約地區,一九九五年香港成為世貿創辦成員之一。一九九七年回歸中國後,香港的成員身分絲毫沒有改變,繼續以「中國香港」名義參與世貿事務及簽訂國際貿易協定,這已一一寫入香港特別行政區的憲法《基本法》內。我們十分珍視世貿為香港的經濟和社會帶來的可靠環境、穩妥保護等種種好處。
香港申請主辦世貿第六次部長級會議,是因為我們深知,這次會議對多哈發展議程的多邊貿易談判能否取得圓滿結果,起關鍵作用。香港希望能夠盡一分力,與各國合力實現這回合的理想目標。世貿成員接納我們的主辦申請,顯示他們認同香港對多邊貿易制度的貢獻,並確信香港這個國際都會具備能力,能夠處理部長級會議帶來種種的挑戰。
全港市民同心合力,決心把這個盛會辦好。曾俊華局長全力創造有利環境,讓各地代表未來數天能夠在自由坦誠的氣氛下,進行有建設性的談判。他跑遍世界各地出席多個重要會議,為未來數天的談判作充分準備。
自從世貿兩年前接納香港為這次會議的主辦城市後,香港社會各界人士包括公務員、立法會議員、區議員、非政府組織成員、商界領袖、服務供應商、志願工作者以至普羅市民,就一直努力不懈,矢志達到一個共同目標,就是把會議辦得井然有序,讓會議可以在公開、包容的氣氛下有效率地進行。香港全體市民的努力成果,今天就開始呈現在各位眼前。
各位,我們正處於歷史時刻。自由貿易和經濟發展,是我們作為世貿成員的恒常目標。我知道,世界有些地方視這目標為威脅多於機遇,但我們必須全力推進多哈發展議程的貿易談判。我們必須奮力確保多邊貿易制度保持健全及具成效。
這個會議提供了一個黃金機會,讓我們一同展示決心,通過進一步的貿易自由化,繼續改善各地人民的生活。這是四年前我們展開多哈回合談判時,立意要達到的工作目標。
這個星期,全球注視香港。作為主辦城市,也是會議主席,我們會竭盡所能爭取美滿成果。但香港不能獨力完成這項使命,必須得到各位的支持和承擔才能達到目標。我深信大家會樂於為此給予支持和作出承擔。

Speech at the Inauguration Ceremony of the Fourth Term Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
by Mr C Y Leung, the Chief Executive of HKSAR
at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre
July 1, 2012
尊敬的胡主席、各位嘉宾、各位亲爱的香港市民:
Honourable President Hu, fellow people of Hong Kong, ladies and gentlemen,今天,我怀着谦卑的心,就任中华人民共和国香港特别行政区行政长官。在我任内,我会以施政成效答谢中央政府和香港市民对我的信任。我会全力以赴,实践我的竞选承诺,带领香港“稳中求变”,发展经济,改善民生,推进民主,建立更繁荣、更进步、更公义的社会。
Today, I humbly take office as the fourth-term Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China.During my tenure, I will fulfill the trust placed in me by the Central Government and the people of Hong Kong with policy achievements.I will spare no effort to carry out my election platform and lead Hong Kong in “seeking change while preserving stability”.My goal is to develop the economy, improve people's livelihood, promote democracy and build a more prosperous, progressive and righteous society.回归以来,国家一直大力支持香港,庞大的机遇引导和推动着香港的发展;同时让香港为国家的改革开放作出贡献。未来,我们要继续为国家和香港的共同发展、共同繁荣,努力不懈。
Our country has given us staunch support since Hong Kong's return to the motherland.Ample opportunities have emerged.Not only have these guided and spurred our city's development, they have also enabled us to contribute to the reform and opening-up of our nation.We will continue working tirelessly towards the betterment and prosperity of both our country and Hong Kong.回归十五年,香港得以成功落实“一国两制”、“港人治港”,高度自治,实在有赖全社会的努力。在此我衷心感谢两位前任行政长官,董建华先生和曾荫权先生,他们为“一国两制”在香港特别行政区成功落实奠定了坚实的基础。我也要感谢本届行政长官选举委员会委员和全体香港市民,他们的参与,为这场选举带来实质意义,我衷心希望全社会齐心一意,共建香港的未来。
With the efforts of our entire community, we have successfully implemented the concept of “One Country, Two Systems” and the principle of “Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong” with a high degree of autonomy over the past 15 years.I wish to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to my predecessors, the Honourable Tung Chee-hwa and the Honourable Donald Tsang.Their relentless efforts have laid down a solid foundation for the successful implementation of “One Country, Two Systems” in Hong Kong.I would also like to thank the Election Committee members and the Hong Kong community, whose participation has brought substantive meaning to this election.I hope that the entire community will render their concerted effort in building the future of Hong Kong.由我参选到当选这大半年间,我进行超过百次区访,亲身接触过一万位以上的不同阶层、不同行业的市民。从今天开始,未来五年,我和管治团队将走入民众,拉近政府和市民的地理距离和心理距离。我们会虚心聆听大家的建议和意见,切实回应市民的所想所需。
Since I declared my decision to stand for election for the Chief Executive, I have made over 100 district visits and reached out to over 10 000 people from different strata and sectors of society.In
the next five years, my team and I will continue to stay in close touch with the people, so as to narrow both the physical and psychological distances between the Government and the community.We will listen carefully to people's suggestions and ideas.We will respond to their views and needs in a pragmatic manner.我在参选宣言中强调:香港“不需要政策大变,只要适度有为,稳中求变”。今后,我们必须坐言起行,集中力量应对重大和迫切的问题。为了制定有效的策略和政策,“扶贫委员会”、“经济发展委员会”和“金融发展局”的筹备小组,今天正式开始工作,要从高层次、跨部门、跨界别处理相关问题,务求在政策研究和落实两个方面做得到位。
In my election declaration, I stressed that “there is no need for a major reversal of policy.We only need an appropriately proactive government which seeks change while maintaining stability.” From today, we will turn words into deeds.We will focus our energy on addressing the major and pressing issues.To formulate effective policies and strategies, the preparatory task forces on Economic Development Commission, Financial Services Development Council and Commission on Poverty will commence operation today.They will address issues from a high-level perspective and with inter-departmental and cross-sector collaboration.We will ensure that both policy research and implementation deliver results.经济持续发展是香港繁荣的根基,是市民生活的依靠。工商金融界一直是香港经济发展的主要动力,对香港贡献巨大。要促进持续和高速的经济发展,政府必须协助香港大小投资者和企业,把握国家和全球的经济发展机遇,开拓空间,争取经济多元发展,兴旺百业,让市民优质就业,共享繁荣,增加市民向上流动的机会,使中产阶层不断壮大。
Continued economic development is the foundation of Hong Kong's prosperity.The livelihoods of our people depend on it.Our business and financial sectors have been the major driving forces behind Hong Kong's economic development.To promote sustained and robust economic development, the Government must assist investors and enterprises, large and small, to seize opportunities arising from our nation's and the world's economic growth.Economic diversification and thriving industries can improve our job market, provide better opportunities for upward mobility and contribute to a stronger middle class.我们要善用国家在“十二五”规划给予香港的支持,巩固和提升国际金融和贸易中心地位,推动航运业转型升级。我们也要落实与内地签署的各项经贸协议,扩大香港人在内地的就业和发展空间;同时制定产业政策,促进和支援对香港经济发展有重要作用的支柱产业,包括境外的港资企业,以及有潜力的新兴产业。我们要重视在内地发展的港商对本地经济的贡献,持续支持内地港商转型升级。
Our country has given Hong Kong strong backing in the National 12th Five-Year Plan.We must capitalise on the opportunities to consolidate and elevate Hong Kong's status as an international financial centre and help the shipping industry to restructure and upgrade.We must also fully implement all economic and trade agreements signed with Mainland counterparts to expand job opportunities and development potential in the Mainland for Hong Kong people.We also need to formulate industry policy to promote and support the pillar industries that are essential to our economic development, including supporting Hong Kong enterprises operating outside Hong Kong and new industries with growth potential.We fully recognise the contribution to our economy by Hong Kong businesses operating in the Mainland and will continue to support their restructuring and upgrading.经济要有所发展,人口问题和民生问题也要妥善处理。社会的素质取决于人的素质,人的素质取决于教育的素质。本届政府将规划长远人口政策,优化人口结构和人力资源,推动社会和经济平稳发展,为个人创造美好未来,为社会培育优秀人才。为此,教育政策要从专业出发,以学生为本,让学生“学有所成,学以致用”。
For our economy to flourish, we must ensure that issues relating to our population and livelihood are properly addressed.The quality of our society depends on the quality of our people, which in turn depends on the quality of education.My Government will carry out long-term planning on population policy to improve our population structure and the quality of our people.This will
sustain steady development of our society and economy, create a bright future for individuals and nurture outstanding talents for society.To this end, education policies must be devised from a professional perspective, taking a student-oriented approach to enable students to equip themselves well and achieve their full potential.安居乐业是市民的心愿,房屋是社会最关切的问题。我深信:要从规划和供应入手,加建公屋,协助基层上楼;公平合理分配公共房屋资源,增加流通;适当增加土地供应,促进楼市稳定发展,协助中产置业;鼓励自置居所,提升市民的归属感,促进向上流动。我们必须制定长远房屋策略,完善地区规划,建立土地储备,迅速回应市场和社会对土地需求的变化,以提升香港的竞争力,并且逐步提高香港人的生活素质。
It is a common aspiration for people to own their own home.Housing tops the list of livelihood issues that are of public concern.I believe that housing issues should be tackled through planning and supply.We need to provide more public housing and assist low-income groups to secure flats.Public housing resources should be allocated in a fair and reasonable way to increase circulation.We need to increase land supply appropriately to maintain a stable property market and assist middle-income families to buy their own homes.To enhance the sense of belonging in our society and promote social mobility, we will also encourage home purchase.We will formulate a long-term housing strategy, improve district planning and set up a land reserve to respond swiftly to changes in market.This will enhance the competitiveness of Hong Kong and improve the quality of life for our people.家庭是每个人的支柱,是社会稳定的重要元素。我们要建立和谐家庭,支援弱势社群;同时要宣扬敬老、爱老、护老精神,实现“老有所依、老有所养、老有所居”,尤其着重照顾贫困长者的经济需要。
Families are our pillars and a key element for social stability.We need to foster family harmony and support the underprivileged.It is our social responsibility to ensure that the elderly are honoured for their special place in the family, loved in the way they have loved us and respected for their life-long contributions.Special attention should be given to those who need financial assistance to meet their basic needs.青少年是香港的未来,我们要从发展的角度,制定青少年政策,让每个新一代的香港人都能发挥潜力、活力和创造力。
Young people represent the future of our society.Youth policy should be formulated from a developmental perspective, creating a favourable environment for new generations to unleash their potential, vitality and creativity.香港社会整体富裕,所有市民都应享有基本生活保障,也应享有经济发展的得益。我将尽快设立“扶贫委员会”,全面检视、研究和系统地处理老年、在职、跨代、新移民、少数族裔和区域性贫穷等问题;我们也要积极推动公私营医疗的双轨发展,让香港人不论贫富,都病有所医。
As a generally affluent society, Hong Kong has all the necessary prerequisites to satisfy the basic needs of the people.Everyone in our community should be able to share in the fruits of our economic development.I will set up the Commission on Poverty as early as possible to review, study and systematically address the issues relating to poverty among the elderly, the working poor, cross-generational poverty, poverty affecting new immigrants and ethnic minorities, and regional poverty.We will also actively promote twin-track provision of medical services by the public and private sectors, so that medical services are accessible to all, regardless of wealth.七百万香港人是一家,我会将香港建设成宜居的城市,推动市民节能减排,加强绿色和保育意识,同时保护香港的自然美景。
The seven million Hong Kong people are one family.We will work to make Hong Kong a more livable city.We will encourage energy saving and pollution reduction.We will also further promote awareness of greening and conservation and play a role in protecting our natural
environment.在非物质生活方面,政府将一如以往尊重宗教自由,进一步提升文化素质,鼓励创意。
The Government remains committed to respecting the freedom of religion.We will also endeavour to enhance our cultural literacy and encourage creativity.我必定恪守承诺:维护公义,保障市民权益;维护法治、廉洁、自由、民主等香港核心价值,包容各种立场和意见;同时以身作则,廉洁自持,建立“行之正道”和诚信的政府。我会尽力保护每位市民的权利,并尊重新闻自由,维护媒体的独立性。
I will honour the pledges I have made-to uphold justice, protect the rights of the people, safeguard the rule of law, clean government, freedom and democracy which are amongst the core values of Hong Kong, and take an inclusive approach towards different opinions and views.I will do my utmost to safeguard human rights and make sure that press freedom and the independence of the media are respected.我会按《基本法》的规定和全国人大常委会的有关决定,推动民主政制发展;进一步优化政治任命和问责制,提高政府效率;同时建立服务型政府,与市民建立伙伴关系,鼓励公民参与,凝聚力量,推动社会共融。
I will promote the development of a democratic political system in accordance with the provisions of the Basic Law and the relevant decisions of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.I will further develop the political appointment and accountability system to enhance the efficiency of the Government.I will also build a service-oriented government, establish partnership with the people and encourage public engagement to draw energy from every corner of our community.本届政府会继往开来,落实“一国两制”、“港人治港”,保持高度自治;维护国家和香港的利益,处理好“一国”和“两制”之间的关系;加强团结社会各界,凝聚民心。
The new term Government will continue to uphold the concept of “One Country, Two Systems” and the principle of “Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong” with a high degree of autonomy.While safeguarding the interests of our country and Hong Kong, we should properly address the relationship between “One Country” and “Two Systems”.We will also strengthen unity and cohesion between different sectors of our society.要有效施政,就要有效管治。行政立法关系是管治的重要一环,通过法例、落实政策,都必须得到立法会和社会的广泛支持,我希望今后和立法会加强沟通合作,齐心一意为香港。
Effective policy implementation hinges on effective governance.The relationship between the legislature and the executive is an integral part of governance.For bills to be passed and policies endorsed, we need the support of the Legislative Council as well as the community at large.It is my hope that my Government will strengthen communication and co-operation with the Legislative Council.With one heart and one vision, we will work for the well-being of our people.香港十八区各具特色,各自有可以发挥的优势,我们会从资源和政策两方面加以配合,积极发挥区议会的作用,让地区问题在地区解决,地区机遇由地区掌握。
The 18 districts of Hong Kong each have their own strengths and characteristics.We will actively support the functions of the District Councils through resource allocation and policy formulation.This will enable community issues to be resolved and local opportunities seized at the district level.我在选举政纲中提出“家是香港”的愿景。要建好这个家,我们必须加强团结,凝聚智慧。我相信市民的力量,我也知道团结社会各界、各行业的重要。
In my election platform, I shared with everyone my vision that “Hong Kong is our home”.To
build this home, we need to reinforce solidarity and amass collective wisdom.I believe in the power of the people.I believe in the synergy that comes from unifying different sectors of the community and the many different trades and businesses.参与选举是一个令人谦卑的过程,让我认识到自己的不足,体会到社会的集体智慧,更知道接受市民和传媒监察的重要。
Standing for election was a humbling experience.It made me realise my own shortcomings and helped me appreciate the collective wisdom of our society.What's more, it helped me better understand the importance of accepting media and public scrutiny.香港社会面对不少挑战,我们要齐心一意,迎难而上,认真应付困难,包容并协调分歧,化解社会矛盾;对于价值观和政治立场多元化带来的不同意见,我们要多聆听,多包容,努力寻求共识。
Our community faces many challenges.We need to stand united, face difficulties with fortitude and determination, and respond to different views with an inclusive attitude.I believe that we can resolve the conflicts that exist in our society and the clashes that may arise from different values or political ideologies.We need to listen, and be inclusive and patient in seeking a consensus.胡主席、各位嘉宾、各位亲爱的香港市民,今天我和第四届政府的主要官员和行政会议成员宣誓就职,我相信我们的团队必定能够互相砥砺,并肩合作,尽心尽力为香港市民服务。我深信,只要我们齐心一意,必定能够将香港打造成为儿童茁壮成长、青年实现理想、壮年人一展所长、长者安享晚年、七百万市民安居乐业的理想家园。在我们共同努力下,香港这颗“东方之珠”必定能够光芒再现,更形璀璨!
President Hu, fellow people of Hong Kong, ladies and gentlemen, today I am being sworn into office together with principal officials of the fourth-term Government and members of the Executive Council.I trust that my team will work together harmoniously and dedicate themselves to serving the community.With one heart and one vision, we should be able to build Hong Kong into an ideal home for us all.A home where children grow up healthy, young people make their dreams come true, those in the prime of life bring out the best in themselves and the elderly enjoy a decent life.With our concerted efforts, Hong Kong, this Pearl of the Orient, will shine even more brightly.谢谢各位!
Thank you.

Address by Donald Tsang at WTO WC6, Hongkong
世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议十二月十三日在香港正式揭幕。香港特区行政长官曾荫权表示,现正处于历史时刻,这次会议提供了黄金机会,透过贸易自由化,改善世界人民的生活。曾荫权强调,由于香港依赖多边贸易制度,故世贸对香港十分重要,香港会珍惜世贸带来的保障及利益。
THE HONOURABLE DONALD TSANG, CHIEF EXECUTIVE
HONG KONG, CHINADecember 200
5First of all, I wish to extend a warm Hong Kong welcome to all of you.Hong Kong, China is deeply honoured to be the host of the Sixth Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organisation.This week, under this very roof, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance the existing international trading environment;to generate wealth on a broader and deeper scale globally;and, most important of all, to help alleviate the pain of poverty for millions of people living in the poorer parts of this world.I am pleased that Hong Kong, China is today at the centre of this admirable enterprise.I cannot emphasise strongly enough the importance of the WTO.It is the only international organization that deals with the rules of trade between economies.It is the rules-based forum at which 149 Member Economies negotiate agreements and resolve disputes over trade issues.The WTO is also a powerful force in countering the currents of protectionism and discrimination which are responsible to a large extent for the economic hardship suffered by less wealthy and less well-endowed economies.And, ultimately, the WTO is a key component in the global effort to attain the United Nations' Millennium Goal of Development in tackling the scourge of poverty and hunger.Nor can I over-emphasise the importance of the WTO to Hong Kong.As a small, externally-oriented economy with no natural resources other than a magnificent deep water port, Hong Kong has relied on free trade and an entrepreneurial and hardworking population to transform this once sleepy fishing village into an international and regional business hub.So I urge you to take some time during the next few days, and after the conference if you can, to look around our great city.You will see why President Bill Clinton once described Hong Kong as Exhibit A in the case for global interdependence and its benefits.As a free trader, our support for the multilateral trading system is unconditional.And it goes back a long way.We became a separate Contracting Party to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade in 1986.We were a founding Member of the WTO in 1995.Our Membership did not change after reunification in 1997.Indeed, Hong Kong's continued participation in the WTO, and in international trade agreements under the name “Hong Kong, China”, is enshrined in the Basic Law, the constitution of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.We treasure the certainty, protection and benefits that the WTO brings to our economy and community.We offered to host this Sixth WTO Ministerial Conference because we recognized that it would become a key staging post to the successful conclusion of the multilateral trade negotiations under the Doha Development Agenda.We want to play our part in the collective effort to realize the ambitions of the Round.We regard the WTO Members' acceptance of our offer as a recognition of our contribution to the multilateral trading system, and an acknowledgement of our competence as a world city in handling whatever challenges that may arise from the Ministerial Conference.We in Hong Kong are determined to make this important event a success.Secretary John Tsang is committed to creating an environment of comfort for all delegates to conduct negotiations freely, frankly and constructively in the coming days.He has travelled the globe taking part in many of the key meetings which have paved the way for the negotiations that will take place over the next few days.Thousands of men and women in our communityhave been working tirelessly since the WTO accepted our offer to host this Conference two years ago.We have a common objective: we want to stage a Conference that is well organized, transparent, inclusive, and above all, efficient.The fruits of this community-wide endeavour are now before you.Ladies and gentlemen, we are at an historic juncture.Trade liberalization and economic growth is a permanent goal for all of us as WTO Members.While I acknowledge that in some parts of the world this goal is seen as a threat rather than an opportunity, the negotiations under the Doha Development Agenda must press ahead.We must vigorously defend the integrity and effectiveness of the multilateral trading system.This Conference is a golden opportunity for us to demonstrate our collective resolve to improve the lives of peoples throughout the world through progressive trade liberalization.That is what we committed ourselves to do when the Round was launched
four years ago in Doha.This week, all eyes are on Hong Kong.As host and Chair of the Conference, we will do our utmost to bring about a successful outcome.But we cannot do it ourselves.We are relying on your support and commitment to accomplish this mission.I am sure it will be forthcoming.------------------

香港特区行政长官曾荫权在WTO香港会议上致辞
Address by Donald Tsang at WTO WC6, Hongkong
世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议十二月十三日在香港正式揭幕。香港特区行政长官曾荫权表示,现正处于历史时刻,这次会议提供了黄金机会,透过贸易自由化,改善世界人民的生活。曾荫权强调,由于香港依赖多边贸易制度,故世贸对香港十分重要,香港会珍惜世贸带来的保障及利益。
THE HONOURABLE DONALD TSANG, CHIEF EXECUTIVE HONG KONG, CHINA 13 December 2005
First of all, I wish to extend a warm Hong Kong welcome to all of you.Hong Kong, China is deeply honoured to be the host of the Sixth Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organisation.This week, under this very roof, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance the existing international trading environment;to generate wealth on a broader and deeper scale globally;and, most important of all, to help alleviate the pain of poverty for millions of people living in the poorer parts of this world.I am pleased that Hong Kong, China is today at the centre of this admirable enterprise.I cannot emphasise strongly enough the importance of the WTO.It is the only international organization that deals with the rules of trade between economies.It is the rules-based forum at which 149 Member Economies negotiate agreements and resolve disputes over trade issues.The WTO is also a powerful force in countering the currents of protectionism and discrimination which are responsible to a large extent for the economic hardship suffered by less wealthy and less well-endowed economies.And, ultimately, the WTO is a key component in the global effort to attain the United Nations' Millennium Goal of Development in tackling the scourge of poverty and hunger.Nor can I over-emphasise the importance of the WTO to Hong Kong.As a small, externally-oriented economy with no natural resources other than a magnificent deep water port, Hong Kong has relied on free trade and an entrepreneurial and hardworking population to transform this once sleepy fishing village into an international and regional business hub.So I urge you to take some time during the next few days, and after the conference if you can, to look around our great city.You will see why President Bill Clinton once described Hong Kong as Exhibit A in the case for global interdependence and its benefits.As a free trader, our support for the multilateral trading system is unconditional.And it goes back a long way.We became a separate Contracting Party to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade in 1986.We were a founding Member of the WTO in 1995.Our Membership did not change after reunification in 1997.Indeed, Hong Kong's continued participation in the WTO, and in international trade agreements under the name “Hong Kong, China”, is enshrined in the Basic Law, the constitution of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.We treasure the certainty, protection and benefits that the WTO brings to our economy and community.We offered to host this Sixth WTO Ministerial Conference because we recognized that it would become a key staging post to the successful conclusion of the multilateral trade negotiations under the Doha Development Agenda.We want to play our part in the collective effort to realize the ambitions of the Round.We regard the WTO Members' acceptance of our offer as a recognition of our contribution to the multilateral trading system, and an acknowledgement of our competence as a world city in handling whatever challenges that may arise from the Ministerial Conference.We in Hong Kong are determined to make this important event a success.Secretary John Tsang is committed to creating an environment of comfort for all delegates to conduct negotiations freely, frankly and constructively in the coming days.He has travelled the globe taking part in many of the key meetings which have paved the way for the negotiations that will take place over the next few days.Thousands of men and women in our communityhave been working tirelessly since the WTO accepted our offer to host this Conference two years ago.We have a common objective: we want to stage a Conference that is well organized, transparent, inclusive, and above all, efficient.The fruits of this community-wide endeavour are now before you.Ladies and gentlemen, we are at an historic juncture.Trade liberalization and economic growth is a permanent goal for all of us as WTO Members.While I acknowledge that in some parts of the world this goal is seen as a threat rather than an opportunity, the negotiations under the Doha Development Agenda must press ahead.We must vigorously defend the integrity and effectiveness of the multilateral trading system.This Conference is a golden opportunity for us to demonstrate our collective resolve to improve the lives of peoples throughout the world through progressive trade liberalization.That is what we committed ourselves to do when the Round was launched four years ago in Doha.This week, all eyes are on Hong Kong.As host and Chair of the Conference, we will do our utmost to bring about a successful outcome.But we cannot do it ourselves.We are relying on your support and commitment to accomplish this mission.I am sure it will be forthcoming.------------------
各位部長、總幹事拉米先生、常務理事會主席Mohamed大使、各位代表、各位嘉賓:
首先,熱烈歡迎各位蒞臨香港。中國香港得以主辦世界貿易組織第六次部長級會議,深感榮幸。
這個星期,我們有一個非常難得的機會,共聚一堂,優化現有的國際貿易環境;為全球各地更廣泛地創造財富;而最重要的,是幫助貧困地區數以億計的人民脫離貧窮。我很高興中國香港今天能牽頭肩負這項崇高任務。
世貿對全球極具重要性。世貿是處理全球貿易規則的唯一國際組織,它讓149個成員得以根據既定規則商討貿易協定,解決貿易紛爭。
保護主義和貿易歧視,往往導致較貧窮、較弱勢地區陷入經濟困境,而世貿是對抗保護主義和貿易歧視的主要力量。世貿最終更是全球合力消除貧窮飢餓,達至聯合國千年發展目標的力量。
世貿對香港的重要性不容置疑。香港地方細小,屬外向型經濟體系,除了擁有一個優良的深水港外,別無其他天然資源。全憑積極發展自由貿易,以及港人的奮勇拼搏、勤勉進取,這個昔日的小漁村,才能蛻變成為今天的國際及區域商貿樞紐。
因此,我請各位在未來數天及在會議之後,抽點時間看看我們這個亞洲國際都會,這樣你們便會明白,為甚麼克林頓總統說,香港是全球互補互惠,益處無窮的明證。
香港作為貿易自由的先驅,毫無保留地支持多邊貿易制度。早在一九八六年,香港成為關貿總協定的獨立締約地區,一九九五年香港成為世貿創辦成員之一。一九九七年回歸中國後,香港的成員身分絲毫沒有改變,繼續以「中國香港」名義參與世貿事務及簽訂國際貿易協定,這已一一寫入香港特別行政區的憲法《基本法》內。我們十分珍視世貿為香港的經濟和社會帶來的可靠環境、穩妥保護等種種好處。
香港申請主辦世貿第六次部長級會議,是因為我們深知,這次會議對多哈發展議程的多邊貿易談判能否取得圓滿結果,起關鍵作用。香港希望能夠盡一分力,與各國合力實現這回合的理想目標。世貿成員接納我們的主辦申請,顯示他們認同香港對多邊貿易制度的貢獻,並確信香港這個國際都會具備能力,能夠處理部長級會議帶來種種的挑戰。
全港市民同心合力,決心把這個盛會辦好。曾俊華局長全力創造有利環境,讓各地代表未來數天能夠在自由坦誠的氣氛下,進行有建設性的談判。他跑遍世界各地出席多個重要會議,為未來數天的談判作充分準備。
自從世貿兩年前接納香港為這次會議的主辦城市後,香港社會各界人士包括公務員、立法會議員、區議員、非政府組織成員、商界領袖、服務供應商、志願工作者以至普羅市民,就一直努力不懈,矢志達到一個共同目標,就是把會議辦得井然有序,讓會議可以在公開、包容的氣氛下有效率地進行。香港全體市民的努力成果,今天就開始呈現在各位眼前。
各位,我們正處於歷史時刻。自由貿易和經濟發展,是我們作為世貿成員的恒常目標。我知道,世界有些地方視這目標為威脅多於機遇,但我們必須全力推進多哈發展議程的貿易談判。我們必須奮力確保多邊貿易制度保持健全及具成效。

多謝各位。
