Expats Gain Fluency in Cantonese
. A s 1997 approaches, the needfor senior government officials to be able to communicate in English and Chinese becomes increasingly im-portant. For expatriate officials who have made it clear that they would like to stay on after the handove1~ Cantonese will not be an added

English is the language of the govenunent, par-ticularly in my deparhnent where we have to deal with a lot of legal terms," said Mr Jones.
So it was that a group of nine senior government officials spent the last month at HKUST perfecting

’,One of the di丘icultiesin preparing this
course was that no course materials exist at this level of Cantonese," said Keith Sai-tao Tong, a Principal Instructor in the Language Centre and coordinator of the intensive course.’,Some of the officials need to

During the 20-day course, the nine stu-dents covered five components-commu-nication skills in the workplace, listening skills development, individual oral presen-tations, tutorials and a consultancy project. The consultancy project was a key com-ponent of the course-students working in groups of three prepared a presentation on behalf of their imaginary private consul-tancy company bidding for contracts awarded by the government. The course culminated with the three groups giving their presentations to adjudicators who had not heard them speak Cantonese before.
’,I was vety 凶1pressedby the fact that the officials were obviously thinking in Can-tonese," said Patrick Lau, Deputy Secretary of the Civil Service Branch, and one of the adjudicators.

"But we don’t want anybody to pre-tend to do something they're not doing,'
said Prof Dobson, before the visits.’,We will look better if we are honest about what we do rather than if we try to conceal what we may think are some deficiencies.’,
’,For those of us doing the visits, it’s a chance to collect a pretty comprehensive picture of what

exit session with the leadership group. According to Prof Peter Dobson, A

president
about her hopes and plans for the

s'
Union.
Q
Why did you decide to run for Presi-dent?"A few reasons. First, there's got to be someone to do this job, and I think with my past year's experience in the Union I can man
-age the duties of a president. Second, we should
give leadership and guidance to year-one
stu-dents. Third, I really think that students should not just study and accept what is prepared for them. I want to encourage them to participate. When they see something unreasonable they
should speak out. At the same time, they
should also take the initiative to suggest im-provements."
Q
What are your goals for the Students' Union? ·"Mainly two goals. First to strengthen the
structure of the SU. The structure is not very mature yet and there is room for improvement. The second goal is to trigger the thoughts of the students and encourage them to participate.
New SU President Agnes Chan Pui Yiu wants to en-courage students to participate more in University
activities.
The students really don't think enough. I don't even think that I have thought enough about
everything. We've also fow1d the participation

Lunch
I n-house algoritlun expert Prof Katta Murty (IEEM) generously h·eated the winners of his Ask
the Expert's algoritlun contest (see 22 Feb issue) to a dirnsum lunch on 11 March 1996.
The winners were: Hemy Wong Sze Hang; Eddie Lee; Jolumy Wong Hon Kit; Kevin Li Chi Keung; Yeun Chi Yeung; Stevie Ng Siu Kee; Rhodri Jones; Fok Hoi Ming.
For those who attempted to solve tl1e problem, Prof Murty exph1ins tl1e solution:
"The round table seating problem is an example of a general problem known as the Traveling Salesman Problem. In this example, there exists no seating arrangement of the heads around the table without penalty.
TI1e rninimrnn penalty is five. There are many ar-rangements which attain
this minimum penalty.
One of them is: H1 - H2 -H3 - H4
-H5-H10-H8-H6- H9-H7-Hl.
It can be verified that in this seating
ar-rangement, all adjacent
pairs of heads speak a
common language ex-cept the pair H7 -Hl, hence it incurs a penalty
of five."
~

of the students is quite low, evident from some
of the activities organized last session. Maybe
they're too busy with their studies, but it is very important to do other things, not just study."
Q What issues are you concerned about? "Students' welfare-the welfare secretary
did it very well last yeai~ there's been
remark-able improvement in our Print Shop and
Co-op Shop. I hope we can keep it up. At the University level, we hope the rights of our fel-low schoolmates can be ensured. Another is
-sue is compulsory membership of the SU. Two
weeks before the last session finished there was a referendum on compulsory membership of the SU. Some said no, some said yes, and the number of votes for is more than the number of votes against. I think we will put this into
practice in the corning semester."
Q
How do you spend your free time?"I don't have time for sports, so that's why I have to eat little to keep my shape! Sometimes
I go to the cinema with my friends, but not
of-ten. I spend many hours on SU activities-apai·t
from sh1dying and sleeping you can usually find me in the Students' Union. Anyone who
wa11ts to contact me can reach me by coming
direct to the SU, or through e-mail, or tlu·ough my pager."
Q
You're the first woman SU president.How does that make you feel?
"Not special. I just want students to know that gender does not prevent you from being a
leader. There are quite a lot of women in the
executive committee and in the Union council
this year."
The University Choir will give a lunch performance in the Atrium on 2 April, coinciding with audi-tions for new members. Staff are welcome to audition.

results. The HKUST choir came in third place out of the three groups singing.
The competition was, in fact, extremely close. Only two points sepa-rated HKUST from the winning group, HKPU.
"Our conductor was very pleased that we earned a higher score
than last yeai/' says choir chairperson Karen Tang Oi Ling.
In his assessment of the performa11ce, the judge praised the choir's "excellent blend and balance between the voices." This is the second
year for the choir to compete at the annual contest which brings
to-gether all levels of schools in the territory for a day of vocal matches.

C ollecting money seems like the kind of hobby that would appeal to eve-ryone. But numismatics, the study or collection of coins, notes, medals, and the like, is a different side to the coin altogether.
Collectoholics were in their element earlier this month when the Philatelic and Numismatics Society held a world currency exhibition in the Exposition Hall. On display were 480 different notes from armmd 150 countries, on loa11 from a stamp and coin shop. Some of the particularly noteworthy exhibits in-cluded plastic money from Australia, paper notes from the newly independent
cow1tries that used to be part of the Soviet Union and the largest denomination note in the world-the 500 000 000 000 Dinara note
from former Yugoslavia.
Even nm-of-the-mill currency can be valuable-according to
Seater Choi Kam To, chairperson of the society, even a normal Hong Kong 10-dollar note could fetch up to $2,000 if all six digits on the
serial number ai·e the same-and that can climb even higher if the digits are lucky 3s or 8s.

Q
For a university with an aim to have an international repu-tation, there seems to be a lot of room for·improvement in the area of reducing wastes and costs. HKUST offers such an ideal location for the installation of renewable energy systems and for associated research. Such a program would not only save money, but would also provide very valuable educational facili-ties in the Asian region. What are the current and future univer-sity initiatives in this field? It appears that a prime opportunity has already been missed during the construction and planning phase!!
A
Mike Hudson (DEMO): "As always there is scope for im-provement and the University as a whole, and EMO in particula1~welcomes people coming forward with viable, cost-effective
propos-als for both energy saving and energy production.
"The timescale for both the design and construction of the
Uni-versity was very short and everyone involved was under a great
deal of pressure to ensure that the construction of some tlu-ee mil-lion sq. ft. of space was completed in the shortest possible time. With
such pressures, investigating the incorporation of relatively new (at least to Hong Kong) and locally unproven technologies, was just not possible. In the real world, designers and contractors cannot wait indefinitely for the results of research work but have to pursue more predictable, reliable and proven systems which will be readily ac-cepted by, for example, the Government, the UGC, the District Lands Office and others.
"It is never too late, however, to make improvements and your correspondent, or anyone else for that matter, who has practical
re-newable energy proposals is invited to submit them to Mike
Hud-son, Director of Estates Management, or to write to
Genesis
on thesubject."
Q
The cold purified water supply of LG1 Cafeteria has been out of order for more than six months. It is suspected that this is a deliberate act by the caterer to increase the sale of cold drinks. Why hasn't anything been done?A
Derek Sit (CSO): "The faucet of the filtered water dispenser has been replaced twice since it was installed on 30 August 1995. Our office has asked the caterer to post a note next to the dispenser on the availability of free drinking water at the serving cmmterwhen-ever the dispenser is out of order."
Q
Has EMO looked into the possibility of replacing the wasteful and unhygienic paper towels with cloth roller towels?A
Mike Hudson (DEMO): "The answer is no, but now thatsomeone has raised the issue, we can look at the economics of
em-ploying a conh·actor to provide a roller towel service.
"We currently provide the option in almost all toilets of electric
hand dryers or paper towels. The arguments are forever on-going as to the environmental effects of producing the electricity for the hand dryers vs. those of producing the recycled paper that is used in our paper towels. Roller towels are not without problems. For
one thing they sometimes jam and they can rw1 out. They have to be transported to the laundry, washed, dried and ironed-processes
which consume energy. (Any ideas on how to gain a consensus
amongst the 8,000+ people a day who use our toilets would be ap-preciated.)
"It seems that most people prefer the paper towels and
experi-ments in other institutions in Hong Kong, which involved the re-placement of the paper towels, with electric hand dryers, ended in the illicit use of toilet paper from the cubicles for hand drying, with
undesirable consequences! Paper towels were soon reinstated."
