我係咁意提一提, 佢竟然驚到劈炮唔撈.....
各位同事、同學、校友:
自從二零一零年七月一日出任校長至今,轉眼已接近六年。在二零一四年,我的五年校長任期完結前一年,大學校董會主席就校長續聘事宜和我商討,我向校董會明確表示,我雖然矢志全心全意承擔校長一職,但同時作為一位醫學教授,我渴望可以盡快重返醫學院內科及藥物治療學系,全職擔任我所熱愛的教學和研究工作。我非常感激當日校董會給予我充分的理解和支持,同意我續任一個較短的年期至二零一八年六月三十日,並決議於二零一六年年中開展遴選下任校長的工作。倘若新校長在我任滿前選出並到任,我亦會提早交棒。我相信校董會稍後將會按原定計劃開展下任校長的遴選工作。
我期望在卸任校長後,可以到海外進行一段時間的講學及進修,然後再展開我在科研及治療病人方面的計劃,特別是癌症研究的工作。我亦希望一再強調,我對參政絕不感興趣,我只想繼續從事我所喜愛的醫療、科研和教育工作。
早前梁乃鵬博士獲校董會提名為下任校董會主席,而大學監督亦接納提名並委任梁博士由五月一日起出任校董會主席,我深感欣喜。我深信憑藉梁博士的豐富經驗和廣闊人脈、對高等教育的認識和熱誠,必能勝任此職,並當會帶領中大層樓更上。我會一如以往,和校董會主席、整個校董會及大學團隊,全力協作,推動中大持續發展。
我亦希望各位中大人,繼續給予大學支持,共同為我們愛護的中大貢獻力量。

Dear colleagues, students and alumni,
It was nearly six years ago when I assumed the position of Vice-Chancellor of CUHK on 1 July 2010. In 2014, a year before I completed my five-year term, the Council Chairman discussed with me the renewal of my appointment as Vice-Chancellor. At that time, I expressed to the Council my strong desire to resume my teaching and research duties as Professor of Medicine and Therapeutics on a full-time basis as soon as possible, whilst willing to dedicate and commit myself to continue to serve as Vice-Chancellor for a further period. I am deeply grateful to the Council for its understanding and support, and for approving my re-appointment as Vice-Chancellor for a shorter term that will expire on 30 June 2018. The Council also agreed that the process of searching for my successor should begin in mid-2016. As soon as a new Vice-Chancellor is ready to report to duties, I shall step down to enable the new Vice-Chancellor to take office, even before my term ends if needs be. I believe the Council will soon initiate the search process according to its planned timeline.
After relinquishing the Vice-Chancellorship, I plan to take a sabbatical overseas before I embark on my new journey of research and clinical work, and I wish to focus on cancer research in particular. Forgive me for making a point, once again, on a question I am often asked: I am not interested in assuming any political office. All I wish to do in future is to fulfil my longstanding passion as a teacher, researcher and clinician.
I am very pleased that the Council has nominated Dr. Norman Leung as the next Chairman of the Council, and that the Chancellor has approved his appointment to take effect from 1 May 2016. I am absolutely confident that, with his extensive experience and network, as well as his knowledge in and dedication to higher education, Dr. Leung will lead the University and take it to new heights. In the meantime, I pledge to continue to serve CUHK, together with the Chairman and all members of the Council, and the University management, to the best of my abilities.
I sincerely hope that all of you will continue to give your full support for, and contribute to, the further development of our beloved CUHK.
With my personal best wishes,
Joseph J.Y. Sung
Vice-Chancellor and President |
