Mr. Rozario is the head
Interpreter. The principal duty of
Mr. Chan Sai Kwong is to translate documents and to assist in preparing

When Mr. Rozario is engaged at the Criminal Sessions or in the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, Mr. Chan Sai Kwong interprets in the Summary Jurisdiction side. As far as I can judge, he is a
