引言
Introduction
社會的構造
The Fabric of Society
「紡織品」這名詞一般可指 織布。我們日常用它來形容穿 著的衣服和飾品，但其實這名 詞亦可指所有編織出來或由互 相聯繫組件組成的網絡。一個 社會有如一件紡織品，由無數 的線組成；社會是由大眾及他 們的意念、傳統、信仰及準則 等元素所組成，而我們都是社 會的一份子，能對香港發揮影 響力。
‘Fabric’ is a word used to describe a woven
思匯政策研究所中各人都持著 一個基本的信念：相信每一個 人都具有價值及多方面的才能 ，如：善於啟發意念、綜合眾 人力量、從不同角度觀察事物 及想像力。我們珍惜各人在理 性、藝術、情緒、社會、精神 和體能等方面可以發揮的能力 ，而我們大部份的工作往往就 是要綜合這些不同的能力，例 如在編撰At the Epicentre: Hong Kong and the SARS Outbreak一書時，我們需要 尋找不同的人去負責構思、感 受、研究、撰文、編輯及設計 封面等。要是沒有這些人才的 貢獻，這本書的內容肯定較現 時遜色。
Moonrise, Tai Ping Shan, 2003
cloth. We generally use the word to talk about the clothes we wear and our furnishings but in essence it can be applied to anything that is made up of a weave or a network of interlacing parts. The ‘fabric’ of society is made up of people and their ideas, traditions, beliefs and standards – and we are all ‘threads’ that give texture and pattern to the different aspects of our society. At Civic Exchange, we hold a fundamental belief in the value of people and their diverse talents
in
creating
and
discovering
ideas,
synergies, perspectives and images. We value people’s intellectual, artistic, emotional, social, spiritual and physical abilities and capacities. Our work is almost always a weaving together or combination of these different abilities – for example, in putting together our book on SARS, At the Epicentre: Hong Kong and the SARS Outbreak, we needed and found people from many different walks of life who could think through, feel, research, write, edit and design a publication that would convey the multifaceted experience of SARS in Hong Kong. Without the contribution of these talents, the final product would not have been as rich or as valuable.
One
aspect
of
our
work
that
has
grown
significantly, especially in the last year, is our efforts to promote dialogue. People learn about issues by talking and listening to others. In fact, this is often how people form their views and opinions – not necessarily by individual study but rather through interaction with others. However, in public policy, the key stakeholders on an issue are often unaware of each other’s interests, concerns and assumptions, as well as areas of agreement and disagreement. In order to work towards consensus on issues, it is important to design processes that help people understand each other. Our
series
of
Understanding Competition
Policy workshops
brought
together
a
wide
range of stakeholders to discuss competitionrelated issues and the experience of different markets in Hong Kong and internationally. These workshops illuminated key concerns and areas of agreement as well as providing a platform for stakeholders to voice their opinions and begin building consensus on the way forward. This is what dialogue processes should be about. Dialogue carries the potential to improve and create initiatives and relationships and opens the path to a better future than any one individual could dare imagine.
思匯政策研究所一向重視對話 ，去年尤甚。人們透過對話及 聆聽理解問題，而這正好就是 人們就問題得出見解和意見的 一個常見方法。換言之，學習 不一定只靠個人的。可是，在 公共政策方面，問題的主要相 關利益者往往未能察覺到彼此 的利益、關注的事項及假設， 以及同意和不同意的地方。為 令大家可以就某事項達成共識 ，我們必須設計一個過程，讓 各人得以互相了解。 一系列關於了解競爭政策的工 作坊凝聚了來自各方的相關利 益者，一起去討論有關競爭的 問題及在香港和國際不同的市 場經驗。這些工作坊除了讓與 會者有機會闡釋主要問題和共 同協議的範疇外，還提供了一 個平台，讓他們提出意見及就 未來發展方向達成共識，而這 正就是對話過程所應包含的。 對話有潛力去引發行動、建立 和改善關係，以及開拓一個出 乎意料的未好將來。
思匯政策研究所是一個慈善 團體。對我們來說，這意味著 我們是為社會整體的利益而工 作。因此，我們各人都以公眾 利益為工作目標。我們不會為 私人或其他團體進行遊說，而 我們所有的工作都是免費提供 給公眾的。當我們獲邀為團體 度身設計具創意的對話方法時 ，我們不會將自己的主意強加 於討論或決策上，而只會締造 出一個合適的環境，讓參與者 加深彼此了解，從而有助共同 理解複雜的公共政策問題。我 們希望藉著這項工作強化香港 社會。
Civic Exchange is a charity – what this means to us is that as an organisation, we are working for the overall benefit of society. Thus, we work towards what is in the public interest. We do not take private clients and all of our work is made freely available to the public. When we are asked to help design creative dialogue processes for groups, we do so not to impose our own ideas on discussion or decision-making, but rather to create a forum for greater understanding among the participants so as to promote collective learning on complex public policy issues. A critical aspect of this work is our wish to contribute to the strengthening of the social fabric.

affects someone. Our aim is to broaden citizens’ understanding of the issues and choices facing them. We hope to provide the information and tools for citizens to discuss public policy issues and come together to exchange views on issues of common concern. We design projects on a variety of social issues with the goal of engaging the interest of citizens and exploring methods for changing behaviour for the better. We promote the use of ‘sustainability tools’ – listening, meeting and dialogue skills – as a means of fostering personal development, enhancing collective interactions and improving public discussion on community issues. We also provide a platform for citizens to develop contacts, resources, strategies and actions plans in order to present a strong united voice on issues of public interest.

政治分析 去年香港的政治發展可謂極具 代表性。我們在這方面的首項 工作是發表一份名為《沒有民 主基礎的問責制》的報告，而 我們更是首個組織就有關課題 發表報告的。這份報告詳細探 討了行政長官董建華於二零零 二年七月一日實施的主要官員 問責制。
於二零零二年十二月發表的 Politics in High Gear報告中 ，我們確切預料多項導致大批 市民七一上街遊行背後的問題 。在七一遊行的前後，思匯政 策研究所更進行了兩個關於公 眾對具爭議性的基本法第二十 三條立法建議的民意調查。
Political Analysis This past year has been extremely significant in terms of political developments. Our work for the year began with the publication of the groundbreaking report, Accountability without Democracy,
which
provides
an
in-depth
discussion of the new ministerial system put in place by Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa on 1 July 2002. We were the first organisation to produce a detailed report on the subject. Our report Politics in High Gear, published in December 2002, proved to be prescient in the sense that it anticipated many of the issues leading up to the mass public demonstrations on 1 July 2003. Civic Exchange commissioned two surveys on the controversial Article 23 national security legislation in order to assess public sentiments just before and then immediately after the 1 July 2003 demonstrations against the legislation.

在二零零二年九月，我們出版 了的第二本書，名為《創建民 主：締造一個優良的香港特區 政府》。這本書輯錄了十二篇 由熟悉民主發展的學者及專家 所編寫的文章。另外，我們還 製作了一套十二份包含各文章 精髓的小冊子，使廣泛市民可 以閱讀這些文章。 這項計劃的其中一個重點是要 鼓勵社區團體組織集會或討論 會，探討有關民主改革的問題 及協助市民參與民主發展。另 外，我們也委託了香港過渡期 研究計劃在二零零三年十一月 進行一個公眾對政制改革的電 話意見調查，並從中選出一些 被訪者再進行一個較深入的研 究，找出他們對政制改革的支 持程度。匯政策研究所預期會 在二零零四年一月初發表這項 計劃的總結報告。
Enhancing
Democratic
Participation
Project also focuses on public participation and political development in Hong Kong. This 12month project aims to encourage citizens to begin deliberating the issues involved in political reform and democratic development in Hong Kong. The publication of our second book, Building Democracy:
Creating
Good
Government
in Hong Kong, in September 2003, was one outgrowth of the project. The book is a collection of 12 essays written by scholars and experts on issues related to democratic development. In order to make the chapters more widely accessible, we produced a set of 12 pamphlets that capture the essence of each essay. As part of this project, community groups were encouraged to organise their own gatherings or discussion sessions to deliberate relevant issues in a democratic manner to help allow people experience democracy. Also, in late 2003, the Hong Kong Transition Project commissioned a telephone survey of public opinion on political reform, followed by a more in-depth study of selected survey respondents to determine the level of support for political reform. Civic Exchange will produce a final project report in early January 2004.

Through the project, a community network has developed within the Estate and follow-up events are now being planned in order to sustain momentum.
廣東省非政府組織 名錄 隨著香港與廣東省在經濟上逐 漸融合，民間團體的參與對地 區發展極為重要。尤其是在人 口密集和高經濟增長的香港及 廣東，區內的社團需要在環境 的可持續性問題上增加對話及 合作。 處於不同發展階段的民間團體 能透過分享彼此的最佳做法， 改善其成績及效果。可是，若 要統籌網絡及彼此的合作，我 們需要一些基本的聯絡資料。 至今，有關廣東現存的團體及 其從事活動的資料仍然是十分 缺乏的。 為了滿足這個需要，思匯政策 研究所聯同清華大學NGO研究 所，展開了一個試驗計劃。這 項計劃的主要活動為輯錄廣東 省內專門研究環保及可持續發 展課題的非政府組織的資料。 我們預計將於二零零四年初發 表一本列出在廣東省從事環保 工作的非政府組織的名錄，而 這名錄將會是同類型名錄的首 冊。此外，思匯政策研究所在 二零零四年會舉辦一連串工作 坊，讓香港與廣東省從事環保 工作的非政府組織得以就有關 珠江三角洲地區的環境問題上 對話及合作。
Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) Directory for Guangdong With increasing economic integration between Hong Kong and Guangdong Province, it is imperative that civil society becomes more involved in the process of determining how the region will develop. In particular, there is a need for greater dialogue and cooperation on environmental sustainability issues between groups in Hong Kong and Guangdong given the tremendous population and economic growth in the region. Civil society organisations at different stages of development can improve performance and efficacy by sharing best practice with other organisations. However, basic contact information is needed to facilitate networking and collaboration. There is currently a dearth of information on what groups exist in Guangdong and what activities they are involved in. To address this need, Civic Exchange, together with the NGO Research Centre of Tsinghua University, has launched a pilot project on those NGOs registered in Guangdong that are involved in environmental sustainability projects and research. A directory of Guangdong’s environmental NGOs, the first of its kind, will be published in early 2004. Civic Exchange will also host a series of workshops in 2004 for environmental NGOs in Hong Kong and Guangdong with the goal of promoting greater dialogue and cooperation on environmental issues in the Pearl River Delta region.

We were extremely fortunate to have a number of public health experts contribute to this book, which will be published in December 2003. The different chapters examine the multifaceted impact of SARS on the Hong Kong community and the lessons that remain to be learned from the experience, particularly in light of reports on the outbreak published by government bodies in Hong Kong and elsewhere. While the three books focus on different issues, evolution of Hong Kong as a community. On a more basic level, these publications reflect Civic Exchange’s goal of deepening and broadening discussion on public issues in Hong Kong and providing people with the information and tools to communicate effectively with each other and with the government.

Programme. This programme presents newly developed and localised information on issues relating to Hong Kong’s long-term sustainability, including marine conservation, public hygiene and sustainable transport, in the form of bilingual teaching packs for teachers, presentations and workshops for schools and bilingual competitions for students. The first of the new series of teaching packs, Discover and Protect Hong Kong’s Marine Life, was completed in early summer 2003 and Civic Exchange has already held workshops and presentations for 280 students using this pack. There has also been much interest from schools in the Marine Life PowerPoint competition in which students have the opportunity to create a presentation to encourage people to protect Hong Kong’s marine life. The next teaching pack will look at public health and hygiene issues, including SARS.
在二零零三年初夏，我們完 成了新系列的首份名為《探 尋和保護香港的海洋生物》的 教材，並已到訪學校，為二百 八十名學生講解有關課題及舉 行工作坊。此外，多間學校表 示有興趣參加海洋生物簡報（ PowerPoint)設計比賽，學生有 機會創作簡介/講義，藉以鼓 勵大家保護香港的海洋生物。 新一份教材將會探討公共健康 及�生的問題(包括非典型肺 炎)。
我們所製作的教材是獨一無二 的，它們除了幫助學生學習「 可持續發展工具」(包括溝通 技巧和批判性思維)，並能提 升學生對香港和全球環境問題 的關注。此外，這些教材中推 廣批判性思維模式、溝通及創 作力的元素也是為配合香港教 育改革而設計出來的。
The teaching packs developed by Civic Exchange are unique in that they offer the chance for students to develop ‘sustainability tools,’ including communication and critical thinking skills, while raising

小型屋宇政策 香港的小型屋宇政策這概念表 面看來是相當直接的，但其實 它連繫到不同公共行政的範疇 ，包括土地使用、保育和規劃 。當我們開始檢討有關政策時 ，我們發現還需要考慮有關法 律、政治及歷史的背景。關於 這些問題，我們出版了一份名 為《重新思考小型屋宇政策》 的報告。報告探究了多項政府 可以採納的選擇，包括更改或 結束現時的政策，列出每項選 擇對原居民的權益、法律障礙 、土地規劃和使用、管理的難 易、政府的損失、環境與文化 遺產的保護、以及政治的可接 受性的影響。這份報告的結論 是沒有單一方案是完全可以令 人滿意的，但我們嘗試在報告 中列出所有關於小型屋宇政策 的資料，包括我們的分析，希 望藉此可以激發起討論，共同 探討未來的發展方向。
Small House Policy Hong Kong’s Small House Policy, while fairly straightforward in its concept, links many different aspects of public administration, including landuse, conservation and planning. Once we began our review of the policy we realised that any attempt to address these areas would also need to consider legal, political and historical context of the context. Our report on the issue, Rethinking the Small House Policy, investigates the various options now open to the government, including amendment or termination of the current policy, and outlines the implications of each option in terms of indigenous villager rights, legal barriers, planning and land use, administrative ease, costs to the government, environmental and heritage protection and political acceptability. The report concludes that no one option is entirely satisfactory, but attempts to present all available information on the policy, including our own analysis, as a stimulus for informed discussion about the way to move forward from the existing political and administrative gridlock.

This was the first attempt to use an extensive survey to find out more about the environmental attitudes of PRD residents. We hope that the findings published in the report will serve as a useful reference for various government bodies in creating policies to promote environmental protection. Civic Exchange carried out a similar survey of Hong Kong people’s environmental attitudes in 2001.
Hong Kong & Pearl River Delta (PRD) Pilot Air Monitoring Project This two-year project, which will finish in 2004, is the first collaborative, multi-stakeholder airmonitoring project undertaken in the Pearl River Delta.

經濟分析 所有政策的研究都離不開經濟 這個範疇。為使政策有效，我 們必須確保在設有適當監管制 度的環境中找到恰當的市場誘 導；而要令政策明確地解決當 前問題(例如運輸、污染管理 、以至土地使用等)，則必須 理解這些問題背後的經濟問題 及其與公共政策的關係。 經濟學能令我們將改變經濟政 策所造成的影響數量化，亦有 助我們找出那些因政策改變而 受影響的相關利益者(包括那 些可能反對改變之人士)。只 有這樣，我們才能夠完整地正 確認識到檢討和改善政策的潛 在用途。

Economic Analysis Economics is a constant component of all our policy research. For policies to work well, the right market incentives must be available within the context of an appropriate regulatory environment. In formulating policies on issues from transport to pollution control to land use, it is necessary to understand the economic implications of issues and their relationship to public policy. Economics allows us to quantify the effect of a change in public policy and helps us to identify those stakeholders whose interests are most affected by policy changes, including those who may be likely to oppose change. It is only with this understanding that we are able to fully appreciate the implications of policy debate and improvement.

The report took the public accounts of the Hong Kong government and created a set of accrual accounts in order to understand the “true” fiscal deficit. In order to understand the reasons for the ballooning fiscal deficit, we also took an indepth look at government policy and the way the government makes decisions.
Competition Project Civic Exchange, in collaboration with a number of project partners and various international and local experts – researched and published a series of four reports on different aspects of competition and regulation. Civic Exchange also organised a series of workshops on these issues to bring together public, private and non-governmental stakeholders and explore the lessons Hong Kong could learn from the experience of different market sectors. The project was conceived to explore the concept of fair competition and its significance for an efficient economy and other societal objectives. Despite popular rhetoric about Hong Kong’s competitive economy it is our view that Hong Kong’s competition policy could be better articulated and implemented more consistently across the board to help promote greater internal and global competitiveness. The specific areas explored through this project included: (a) General Competition and Regulation – Together with CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets (formerly CLSA Emerging Markets), Civic Exchange hosted an introductory workshop on competition and regulation issues and published a background report. Entitled Is Hong Kong anti-competitive?, the report was authored by Peter Roth and Richard Whish, international competition experts, and also included contributions from local experts Mark Williams, Steven Xu, Amar Gill, Catherine Tsui and Christine Loh.
競爭政策計劃 思匯政策研究所聯同多個計劃 伙伴與國際及本地的專家，在 競爭與監管方面進行了一系列 研究，並發表了四份有關報告 。此外，我們也舉辦了多個工 作坊，使公眾、私人和非政府 的相關利益者可共同探索香港 於不同業務市場中所汲收到的 經驗。 整項計劃的構思是要探究公平 競爭這個概念，及其對經濟和 其他社會目標的重要性。儘管 經常聽到香港的經濟是具競爭 力的，但我們相信香港要更清 晰及貫切地實施一套競爭政策 ，以便提升香港的內在與世界 性競爭力。 這項計劃覆蓋的專題包括： (甲)競爭政策與監管 制度改革 ─ 思匯政 策研究所聯同里昂 證券舉辦了一個介紹 競爭政策與監管的工 作坊，並發表一份報 告，提供一些背景資 料。這份報告名為《 香港是否反競爭？》 。報告的撰寫人包括 ：國際競爭政策專家 Peter Roth 及 Richard Whish，本地的專家 Mark Williams、許思濤 、Amar Gill、徐婉坤與 陸恭蕙。
(乙)競爭政策與電訊業 ─ 思 匯政策研究所與摩根士丹利 合辦了一個關於香港電訊業競 爭監管的工作坊，並發表了一 份相關報告，名為《電訊業競 爭環境的答案》。這報告論述 電訊業相關利益者在工作坊的 討論內容，並輯錄了摩根士丹 利Mark Shuper 之序言演說、 由麥肯錫公司的歐高敦及劉家 明編寫的《如何當好電訊業監 管機構的角色》和Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, 及Wharton & Garrison律 師行合夥人Michael Reede所撰 寫的《香港電訊業競爭法律的 演進：回顧與前瞻》。
