He had a special word of appreciation for the Sisters of St. Paul
des Chartres who had offered to serve at Siu Lan.
"I am fully conscious of the public service and humanity behind
the offer," he said, "and I will certainly consider it once all administrative
difficulties in the initial stage, what I call teething troubles, are
ironed out,"
Dr. Choa thanked Sir Kenneth for honouring the occasion with
his presence, particularly as this was one of Sir Kenneth's last public
engagements as an Executive Councillor before his retirement on July 1.
Note to Editors: Copies of the full texts of Sir Kenneth's and
Dr. Choa's speeches, in Chinese and English, are distributed separately in the Press boxes, Government Information Services, later today.
