On Nuclear Power Generation at this point is exactly the start to clean
up the messy situation. The Chinese and Hong Kong governments are now directing a drama that would have a happy denouement so that members of the Legislative Council, the protagonists, could step down from the stage
safely.

Delegations On Nuclear Power Generation was released, people of the
Chinese authorities and the Hong Kong Government immediately declared great importance should be attached to the document. And there was news
