In the name of developing arts!名義上發展藝術

政府以發展文化藝術之名,實質將寶貴的土地利益送給地產商。用英文去揭露這黑幕可以這樣寫:

The Tung administration claims that the development of the West Kowloon cultural district is to promote arts in Hong Kong. However, it is just window dressing. The naked truth is that it is practising favouritism again in the name of developing arts! This is its hidden agenda.

window dressing 掛羊頭賣狗肉
The naked truth 赤裸裸的事實
favouritism偏袒 /偏幫
in the name of 借助某事/人來達成目的
hidden agenda做某事的秘密原因

讓我們學英文,同時關心香港!
