Possible Channels

(i) SARG nomenclature

(Art. 48(5), 53, 60 and 100)

The nomenclature used is

unfamiliar to HK people and,

by reference to that used in

the mainland, does not

reflect the status and level

of responsibilities of the SAR officials in question.

CS, FS, and AG should be called "Zong Si

Zhang (

"in Chinese, while

h

their English titles should remain the

same.

長

Secretaries should be called "Si Zhang

)" while their English titles should remain the same.

"Chief Executive (1)" is

intended to be a description and not a

formal title of the post. Further consideration should be given to how the

post should be called.
