		His replacement, ‘Sir’ Donald Tsang, is the former finance minister to the last British consul in Hong Kong, Chris Patten.
		Tsang has enjoyed a certain political honeymoon, with opinion ratings of 70% at their peak, and an economic recovery partly due to conscious efforts by Beijing to push funds in Hong Kong’s direction as a means to buy ‘stability’.
		Tsang then presented an ‘electoral reform’ package to diffuse demands for free elections in 2007, when he is up for reelection, and 2008, when a new Legislative Council (‘LegCo’ ; Hong Kong’s parliament) is to be elected.

		The interim chief executive of Hong Kong, Sir Donald Tsang, said yesterday that he will refer an important matter of legal interpretation of Hong Kong's "constitution," the Basic Law, to Beijing for resolution.

		Sir Philip was certainly one of the three seminal Financial Secretaries in Hong Kong's post war history, responsible for several important innovations in financial policy.
		As a former lecturer, Sir Philip was inclined to theorize, notably in his elaboration of various "ratios" designed to ensure Hong Kong's sound financial management.
		These were all of value in their day, but to justify Hong Kong's policy in the world of the late 1990s in terms of ideas a quarter of a century old is both extraordinary and somewhat alarming.

		Chart 1 shows satisfaction with the regime of the first Chief Executive, Tung Chee-hwa, never matched that of governors during the final years of colonial rule; this Shanghai-born capitalist was seen more as a representative of Beijing in Hong Kong than as a spokesman for Hong Kong to Beijing.
		Not until the British-trained civil servant, Sir Donald Tsang, son of a local policeman, took over in March 2005 following Tung's mid-term resignation did satisfaction with government performance exceed that under colonialism.
		A month later the Standing Committee intervened again, ruling Donald Tsang could only complete Tung's five-year term rather than begin a full new one, as the Basic Law seemed to state and as the Hong Kong government repeatedly insisted.
