• <As the CFL (慳電膽) policy enters stage 6>

  After being criticized over and over in the past 3 weeks, the CFL-voucher scheme was toned down again, and “officially” enters the stage 6 of any policy it put forward :

  “因慳電膽券計劃致焦頭爛額的特首曾蔭權，再向公眾讓步。繼考慮不增加電費及將慳電膽券擴闊至其他節能產品後，環境局局長邱騰華宣佈，會在明年初就慳電膽券細節進行諮詢，並同時就減少使用鎢絲燈膽一併收集公眾意見。“

  So this scheme is certified.

  We used to say 化腐朽為神奇. But I always wonder how come our government has the ability of 化神奇為腐蝕朽, just for any policy it puts forward.

  And I am also surprised that our great CE does not intend to attend the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen (the successor of Kyoto Conference which finally made Kyoto-Protocol) 

  This reaffirms the conclusion that any HKSAR-government policy, not only very micro-level ones (e.g. CFL), but also the broader ones (e.g. government’s environmental policy), is made up of AO-rhetorics.

  Crap.
