Secretary for Administration and Justice André Cheong Weng Chon has been appointed as the new spokesperson for the government’s top advisory Executive Council.
His appointment was promulgated in last week’s Official Gazette (BO). Cheong is the council’s third spokesperson.
It is the first time since the setting-up of the advisory body in December 1999 that a government official will be its spokesperson. In the past two decades, the post was held by community association representatives: Tong Chi Kin during the chief executive term of Edmund Ho Hau Wah (1999-2009) and Leong Heng Teng during the term of Fernando Chui Sai On (2009-2019).
