all Hong Kong now is going to be terribly keen to know who are going
to be the lucky 100,000, 150,000 or whatever it is for whom these

before the Summer Recess, about eight weeks away and I understand at
the moment you do not want to say too much about who is going to be
selected, what type of people are going to be selected, but who is
