Today is a democratic era, in which the work of the government must be communicated through the media to be understood by the populace and in which the media must likewise pass on the will of the people to be made known to the government. So I told Director-General Shaw that I hoped to have the chance to meet with the press often to exchange mutual views on many questions.
因為今天是一個民主的時代，政府的施政一定要透過大眾媒體，使全國的同胞都能夠瞭解，而且也要透過新聞媒體，使政府知道民眾的意願，所以我告訴邵局長，我願意經常有機會同各位新聞界的朋友見面，來交換我們彼此之間對於很多問題的瞭解。
