But there are many bad effects on referendum too. First of all, referendum put PTU into very high profile. PTU exco should make its standpoint as clear as possible, but not as high profile as possible. The referendum helps very little. Moreover, now it is too sensitive to have a referendum. Hold it within 3 months is infeasible. : If possible, I even suggest there should be referendum in : Hong Kong for people to decide on our own future. However, this : has been ruled out, in the name of sovereignty. No exactly in name of sovereignty, but in name of selfish and coward. Referendum can preserve sovereignty, and use the name of sovereignty is only an excuse. : I also oppose the neutral standpoint. As I said, OBJECTIVE : (which a teacher should always be) is NOT equal to NEUTRAL. : This is the Great Era. In this difficult time, there are : already too many people pointing at a deer and say it is a horse. I think you have over emphasis the 'horse-deer' point. I can't find any connection between 'horse-deer' theory and the need of referendum, nor the morality of neutral standpoint. : After all, education is a holy business and intellecturals have : a very special role in the society. Sure. It is why I think they MUST voice out as clear as possible. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= MAK Tin Ho (���ѻ�) CS Yr.3 email: cs_mth@dmc202, uststu, ug.cs (.ust.hk) "�}�F��"���N�q�b��F���P�ڭ̳��Ʊ楫���P��F���O�ݩ�ۤv��. -������
