香港特區行政長官梁振英9日在香港立法會出席行政長官答問會時表示，任何挪用捐款的問題都要認真面對及嚴肅處理，中央政府極其重視這個問題。四川省政府亦為此設立監察機制。反對特區政府撥款對此并無積極作用，反而阻礙救援工作，一些過火的批評更會破壞香港和內地的感情。
Hong Kong (CNS) -- Opposition to donations may hinder quake relief, and excessive criticism may damage ties between Hong Kong and the mainland, Hong Kong Chief Executive CY Leung said on Thursday.
Leung made the remarks during a Q&A session held by the Legislative Council. Hong Kongers are glad to offer help for disaster victims, no matter where they live, he said. Some people have opposed donations to the Sichuan victims, citing the violation of regulations in the past, but some of the accusations are inconsistent with facts, he added.
Leung also said the central government has made progress in combatting corruption, and proven itself capable during the fight against crises like the H7N9 bird flu and the recent earthquake.
Disregarding all these will do no good to ties between mainland and Hong Kong, he added.
Last Friday, the Legislative Council financial committee approved a donation of HK$100 million to the Ya'an earthquake relief effort.
