CSB and staff union representatives call on civil servants to cast their votes (with photos/video)
******************************************************************************************
     The nomination period for the 2025 Legislative Council General Election has ended today (November 6). The Secretary for the Civil Service, Mrs Ingrid Yeung, immediately led colleagues from the Civil Service Bureau (CSB) and staff-side representatives from various civil service staff unions to distribute leaflets at the Central Government Offices in Tamar, calling on civil servants to mobilise their families to vote together on December 7.

     Mrs Yeung, the Permanent Secretary for the Civil Service, Mr Clement Leung, and deputy secretaries from the CSB, as well as staff-side representatives from the Model Scale 1 Staff Consultative Council, attended the event. Both the management and staff representatives jointly called on civil servants to lead by example and vote on the polling day to elect members for the new-term Legislative Council (LegCo), who will work together to deliver tangible benefits for the well-being of the public.

     Mrs Yeung said, "In recent days, we have been conveying the message that every vote counts to civil servants through various means and channels. Civil service colleagues fully understand that as members of the Government, they should set an example by fulfilling their voting responsibilities and serve as a role model in society by mobilising their whole families to vote on December 7 and elect the candidate they believe is the most suitable.

     "The LegCo is a vital partner to the executive branch. Many policies require the LegCo's deliberation and funding approval before they can be implemented. The nomination period for the LegCo Election concluded today. I encourage my colleagues to learn about each candidate's platform and familiarise themselves with their designated polling station. Let's pay attention to the election and go and vote together, seizing the opportunity to elect each one's preferred representatives," Mrs Yeung added. 

     The staff-side representatives participating in today's event included civil servants from various grades from different civil service staff unions, including the Government Staff Union, the Government Employees Association, the Government Municipal Staff General Union, the Hong Kong Chinese Civil Servants' Association, the Hong Kong Civil Servants General Union and the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department Staff Association.

     The CSB will continue to adopt different means and formats to publicise the election including visits to other government buildings and conducting comprehensive online and offline publicity so that colleagues can clearly understand the importance of voting in the LegCo Election for Hong Kong's future development.
