HKMAO: PERSONNEL CHANGES
1. BOTH THE MING PAO AND THE HONG KONG ECONOMIC TIMES REPORTED THIS MORNING THAT CHEN ZIYING WOULD BECOME A VICE DIRECTOR OF THE STATE COUNCIL HKMAO.
2. WE PUT THE IDEA TO JI SHAOXIANG AT LUNCH TODAY. HE FIRST SAID THAT HE HAD NO IDEA BUT LATER SAID 'NOTHING HAS BEEN DECIDED OFFICIALLY. HE DID HOWEVER POINT OUT THAT IT WOULD BE A JUMP OF TWO RANKS FOR CHEN, WHICH WAS EXTREMELY FAST PROMOTION CONSIDERING HE HAD ONLY RECENTLY BEEN MOVED TO HIS PRESENT RANK.
3. WE WONDERED IF PEKING HAD HEARD ANYTHING TO SUPPORT THIS ?
