The Express: It is impractical to pin high hopes on the BLCC because the panel will have a

united front nature as it

will be coordinated by the NCNA HK branch.

* (report) Newly-elected Legco member Ho Sai-chu: To have Legco members sitting on BLCC is a good thing because they have good contacts with various sectors.

(report) HKJA vice-chairman Wong Kwok-wah: About 60 per cent of the respondents

to a recent survey conducted among HKJA members are in favour of

sending representatives

to sit on the BLCC.

*

(report) Newly elected Legco member Ho Sai-chu: The BLCC should seek public views on HK's political reforms and forward the findings to the HK Government for

reference.

Provisional Regional Council chairman Cheung Yan-lung: The Provisional Regional Council will not nominate any

representative to the BLCC as the council's term of office only last until March next year.
