SUNDAY, JUNE 27, 1976
WHEN THE GOVERNOR, SIR MURRAY MACLEHOSE, REVIEWED THE AFFAIRS OF HONG KONG AT THE OPENING OF THE CURRENT SESSION, HE SAID THAT GIVEN TIME AND THE RIGHT PEOPLE AND THE WILL, THERE WAS PLENTY OF ROOM FOR CHANGE WHILE RETAINING THE ESSENTIAL CHARACTER OF THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.
HE ALSO STRESSED THAT LACKING, AS WAS UNAVOIDABLE ANY ELECTORAL MANDATE MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL WERE REQUIRED TO TRY TO THINK AND PLAN AND SPEAK FOR THE INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AS THEY SAW IT, AND NOT, AS WOULD BE SO MUCH EASIER, FOR THE NARROW INTERESTS OF A PARTY, A GROUP, A PROFESSION, AN AREA OR A CLASS.
+EUT I BELIEVE IT ASSISTS THIS GENERAL REQUIREMENT IF MEMBERS ARE ABLE TO SPEAK FROM AS WIDE A SPREAD AS POSSIBLE NOT ONLY OF PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE, BUT ALSO OF SOCIAL BACKGROUND, HE ADDED.
