Following is the transcript of remarks (English portion) by the Chief Executive, Mr Donald Tsang, at a media session after his visit to Tai Po this afternoon (July 14):
Reporter: Are you disappointed that so far Tai Po is the one and only district doing drug testing..?
Chief Executive: I am very encouraged by the efforts made by Tai Po. They are the leading light in this regard, combining community forces ¡ª the doctors, the social workers, the headmasters ¡ª and most of all their own sports club, their own football team. All of them are participating actively in this. I think they are going to produce a very interesting result and probably a model for other districts to study. I personally come over here humbly, learning from the experience and it has already given me a lot of stimulus.
