Lawmakers are still seeking Monetary Authority chief executive Joseph Yam Chi-kwong's disclosure of its full report on the Lehman Brothers minibonds saga, after he cited reasons of public interest in not revealing it. Raymond Ho Chung-tai, chairman of the Legislative Council subcommittee investigating the matter, said if Mr Yam insisted on his position at an April 14 hearing, he and deputy chairman Philip Wong Yu-hong would arrange a closed-door meeting to ask for an explanation.
MY COMMENT
It seems that the authority can hide the truth, by citing public interest. This seems to be the practice in Singapore as well. I hope that we can have a more honest, open society, with greater transparency.
