Book Description

羅德丞是香港政壇中絕頂聰明的傳奇人物，他是殖民地華人首富何東的外孫，也是法律世家羅文錦的麼子，在麥理浩時代，他是港英銳意栽培的華人精英，也是有史以來最年輕的立法局和行政局委任議員，而且是港英政府與華人家族協作的最後一點血脈，羅德丞代表了香港殖民地政治的一個典型現象。

在九七前夕的因緣際會下，羅德丞毅然作別港英政權，轉投北京的懷抱，在後過渡時期，專揭港英底牌，處處與港英臺槓，驍勇悍戰，鋒芒畢露，備受北京的賞識，被視為首任特區行政長官的熱門人選，但也因此觸動港英政府的神經線，屢遭打壓，後來因為北京屬意平穩過渡，捨爭議性較大的羅德丞而取英方可接受的董建華，羅德丞惟有蕭然引退，從此絕跡香港 Continue

本書作者高繼標一直協助羅德丞組織政黨工作，對羅德丞的行事和為人有細膩的觀察，有興趣瞭解羅德丞的人可以憑書一睹全豹，另外，當年圍繞在羅德丞身邊的敵和友，有些已成為今日炙手可熱的政界人物，他們當年的一言一行，當然也是可堪細味的政治小品。

I have low expectations for this book. But I buy it as I have some relations with this Mr Law. I have asked his Safe Door Company for imigration to Portugal, many of my friends succeeded. I tried later, failed. However, I did enjoy one of the greatest and most enjoyable holiday in my life. Totally unexpected. Also the service of his company is sincere and not for money and very comprehensive.
I did owe him something.
Also, one of my uncle is his teacher in taiji and out of gratitude, he asked wong jim to produce a DVD for him.
The book is a bit boring at the first chapters. But he did revealed the psychology of someone from the old colonial HK upper class on change over to China. I never realise that they can regard HK as so much as their own like I regard my own little home. A sense of belonging.
And , a sense of control.
Also, in this book I can see how the upper class is being run daily. It is like in a small circle. Truly said, the higher you are, the smaller the world is. and gossip and conflict is always around you. It is much happier swimming in this big pool of middle and lower class.
In this book I have surprising inside view, true or not of many big names I read in society. Cheung Lap, Wai Kay Shun, Lam Han Ji, Lee Fuk Sin, Tsang yum Kuen. All from another closer angle.
This make the final half of the book very very informative.
