Written on February 19, 2007 by a2zMacau

The newly appointed Secretary for Transport and Public Works, Mr Lau Si Io, said he would perform his duties with integrity and enhance the transparency of public services in these areas.

Meeting the press at the Government Headquarters, Mr Lau expressed his gratitude to the Central Government and the Special Administrative Regional Government for their faith in him.

He said housing, transport and urban planning would top his agenda, and he would keep close exchanges with the Commission Against Corruption, to ask for its opinion over public services provided by departments under his supervision.

Pointing out that development, in a way, would bring about conflicts among the society, Mr Lau said he would ease the conflicts between development and social harmony when he took office.

He also pledged that he would enhance the transparency of the work under his supervision.

The State Council of the People’s Republic of China approved the Chief Executive’s nomination of Mr Lau as the new Secretary for Transport and Public Works.

Mr Lau joined the civil service in 1984, and served as the President of the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau since the establishment of the bureau in January 2002.
