| Summary, etc. |
In view of the political transition of Hong Kong from a British colony to a Special Administrative Region (SAR) under Chinese sovereignty in 1997, this article examines the adaptability of the senior civil servants in Hong Kong. Various political changes have started impinging on the administrative hierarchy since 1991. Although the senior civil seervants still dominate the governance of Hong Kong, they are now being scrutinized by the Legislative Council and challenged by the political parties and politicians, the citizens who demand greater participation, and China's intrusion into the decision making process. In general, the study finds that the senior civil servants of Hong Kong are predominantly conservative in adapting to the forthcoming political changes. - Reproduced |
