据港媒报道,香港特首林郑月娥15日通知行政会议秘书处,删除她在行会个人利益登记册上,有关英国剑桥大学沃尔森学院名誉院士身份的项目。
Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam said she was disappointed at unwarranted accusations and therefore has given up her honorary fellowship at the Wolfson College of Cambridge University as the college was under pressure to revoke her fellowship following the enactment of the national security law.
据行政会议成员个人利益登记册网页资料显示,行政会议秘书处按林郑月娥通知,于15日在登记册上删除该项原本列为第19的项目。

Lam wrote in a Facebook post on Saturday that she voluntarily gave up the fellowship on Friday. She was bestowed the fellowship in 2017 after she was elected the chief executive of Hong Kong.
林郑月娥表示,“继早前我表示会主动注销我的美国签证后,昨天我亦主动退回英国剑桥大学沃尔森学院的名誉院士名衔。”
她提到,自从去年“修例风波”以来,该学院现任院长承受了来自部分英国政客和媒体及某些团体(应和香港本地反政府组织的所谓“国际阵线”有关的人士)的压力,曾来信告诉她有人要求学院取消她的名誉院士。
According to Lam, the current college president has been under pressure from some British politicians, media and organizations since the unrest occurred in Hong Kong last year. The president has written to Lam to inform her that some people had asked the college to revoke the fellowship.
Lam said she had repeatedly written to the college to clarify the situation.
In her last letter to the college on Friday, Lam wrote that universities in Hong Kong enjoy academic freedom and that the UK has similar legal clauses to protect its own national security.
Lam wrote in her Facebook post that she was very disappointed at Wolfson College's attitude and the accusations against her are baseless and unwarranted.
"I cannot persuade myself to continue having any connection with Wolfson College and therefore decided to give back the honorary fellowship," Lam wrote.
