赴港作短期考察,听闻立法局会议可以旁听,顿时跃跃欲试。我在星期一致电香港立法局,要求旁听星期二的立法局特别会议。电话里立即传来同意的答复,并为我订下了座位。手续如此简便,实在令人难以置信。次日下午,我依照约定的时间来到位于港岛中环的立法局会议厅。很奇怪,这儿并没有给人壁垒森严的感觉。工作人员翻阅订座表,看到电脑卡上打印着我的名字。我不用出示任何证件,也没接受任何盘问,又无须填写出入登记表,一位职员很有礼貌地把我领到二楼的旁听席上。 To Hong Kong for a short visit, I heard the Legislative Council meeting can be observed, suddenly eager. I called Hong Kong Legislative Council on Monday and asked to attend a special meeting of the Legislative Council on Tuesday. A prompt reply was received on the phone and a seat was set for me. The procedure is so simple and incredible. The next afternoon, I came to the Legislative Council Chamber in Central, Hong Kong on the agreed time. Very strange, there is no feeling of strong barriers here. The staff read the reservation form and saw my name printed on the card. I did not have to produce any documents, did not accept any cross-examination, and did not need to fill out the registration form. A clerk took me politely to the second floor of the auditorium.
