Resign

On our way home from Wan Chai, I gathered from my Google Reader that King Solomon had resigned.

Of course it is news. It seems, in fact, an anti-climax when everyone on earth seems to be taken in by the accreditation business – which was obviously introduced by the King.

*****************************

I shall not discuss the goods and bads of the King. The more interesting topic is, of course, who would be the successor.

We need someone who could handle the lethal duet (I mean budget and media), but not having a conflict of interest and easily affected by individual parties.

How about Wen Jiabao (溫家寶) ?

PS. At this moment, there are two or three probable candidates, all currently senior administrators within the system – a phenomenon that speaks for itself how people think of getting someone overseas to take up the post.
