Civil service promotes support for DC election and voting together with one heart (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     ​The Chief Secretary for Administration, Mr Chan Kwok-ki, and the Secretary for the Civil Service, Mrs Ingrid Yeung, together with representatives from the four civil service central consultative councils and the four major service-wide staff unions, jointly visited a number of floors of the Queensway Government Offices (QGO) today (November 29) to promote the District Council (DC) election to colleagues and appealed to them to cast their votes with their families and friends on December 10.
      
     Also taking part in the departmental visits today were the Permanent Secretary for the Civil Service, Mr Clement Leung, colleagues from the Civil Service Bureau, as well as representatives from various government departments.
      
     Mr Chan said, "With the new DC election approaching, civil servants have concerted their efforts and are determined to organise a decent election. They also encourage colleagues to vote together with their friends and relatives, so as to discharge their civic responsibility and support and accomodate the Government's governance. Today, together with representatives from the four civil service central consultative councils and the four major service-wide staff unions, I have visited and talked to colleagues from various government departments in the hope of continuing to widely disseminate the important message of supporting the DC election and voting together among civil servants."
      
     With only 11 days left before the DC election, bureaux and departments will continue to promote the message of supporting the DC election and voting together among colleagues in their workplace. A number of civil service volunteer teams will also reach out to the districts to strengthen the promotional work and appeal to all electors in Hong Kong to fulfil their civic responsibility and vote enthusiastically to elect DC members with capability, ambition and commitment to join hands in building DCs which work pragmatically for the benefit of the public, and to start a new chapter for good governance at the district level.
      
     The DC geographical constituencies, information on candidates, voting arrangements, etc, for the 2023 DC election are available at the thematic website (www.elections.gov.hk). The polling hours of DC geographical constituency ordinary polling stations on polling day will be from 8.30am to 10.30pm.
