The Chief Secretary, Mrs Anson Chan, will be leading a delegation comprising senior government officials and businessmen to visit the three cities and take part in the major events.

Noting that Japan is Hong Kong's third principal trading partner, the second largest foreign investor and the largest foreign investor in the manufacturing industry, Mr Murayama agreed that it was important that this partnership should continue and, indeed, be strengthened.

In the context of closer co-operation, the Prime Minister told Mr Lan that the Japanese Government would be very happy to give the Hong Kong promotion in Japan its maximum support.

Yesterday's meeting was the first of a series of courtesy calls by Mr David Lan on senior government officials and business leaders in Japan to muster their support for the Hong Kong promotion.

Bilingual glossary of legal terms

A bilingual glossary of legal terms containing some 4,600 Chinese terms or expressions was published by the Legal Department today (Thursday).

Launching the English-Chinese Glossary of Legal Terms at a press conference today, the Acting Law Draftsman, Mr Tony Yen, said the terms and expressions contained in the glossary were extracted from legislation which was either enacted bilingually or in respect of which there was an authenticated Chinese text.

He said these terms or expressions were either legal terms themselves or expressions which were frequently used in legislation or legal documents.
