Outgoing Hong Kong science park boss Fanny Law has ‘no regrets’ but admits she might have been blunt giving views to those in power
Future of developing innovation and technology in city depends on finding and retaining talent, she says
The outgoing head of Hong Kong’s science park expressed “no regrets” over leaving her position after four years but admitted she might have been blunt when giving her views to those in power.
Fanny Law Fan Chiu-fun, whose term as chairwoman of the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation expires next Saturday, said her principle had always been to “speak the truth to the rich and powerful”.
“Sometimes I can be blunt with my words, but I’m not the type of person who holds grudges,” Law said on a radio programme on Saturday.
While Secretary for Innovation and Technology Nicholas Yang Wei-hsiung described his relationship with Law as one of “harmony in differences”, Law said she did not recall coming up against the technology chief.
“After he said those words … I thought about them every night,” Law added.
