I fully endorse the recommendation by the UMELCO

Panel that the chances of mother and child re-integrating into

the community and leading a normal life would be greatly

enhanced if they were not subjected to further pressure of

While continuous publicity about their personal life. government officials know how to take what they get from the news media, publicity can be an arduous experience for those

who have not chosen to be in public life. Madam Wong and

Ah-nui both have a difficult road ahead, particularly when

they will no longer have the protection which their

residential institutions presently provide. If, as the news media profess, they have the interests of the mother and child

genuinely at heart, then I hope that they will allow them to

to have some peace.

Health and Welfare Branch.
