塵緣了未 吳靄儀

15 年前7 月25 日的晚上,我參加了一個為我完成了立法局的任期而設的宴會。席上,當年支持我參選的一群朋友,送給我一件令我感動無極的紀念品。他們集齊了我寫給法律界選民的通訊和立法局發言稿,影印編訂成冊,深藍封面上金字題目為《My Seated Days》。寓意是,這兩年不過是我在立法局有席位的日子,《基本法》規定的民選立法機關未能舉行,我只是沒有席位,但仍須履行職責,代表法律界,為民主人權法治發聲。

中英文修養一流的張健利,以英文作序之後,又附加了中文序言,題為「塵緣未了」,指我有未了之事,將來要重返議會,坐在法律界的議席上。他有一段是這樣寫的:

「儘管臨立會已開始運作,民主派立法局議員『落車』已成定局,我們絕不可就此『金盆洗手』,放鬆爭取民主、法治及人權的步伐。我深信吳靄儀與香港的政治舞台『塵緣未了』,無論在局內或局外,她不會『懶起畫娥眉』稍作鬆懈,必定能繼續監察港府及各級議會操作,永不放棄維護港人的權益。」

這些說話,他和我從來沒有忘記。

我的書架上還有另一件紀念品,歷史更長。那是我95 年首次當選之後,戰友送給我的一個純銀相架,我用來鑲上我1995 年9 月28 日給選民的承諾,其中首5 項是:

“I will defend the rule of law to the utmost ofmy ability without fear or regard to anyconsequence to myself. I will use everyopportunity to promote the spirit and principleof the rule of law in the community. I willdefend the independence of the judiciary. I willfight for democracy and social justice. I willuphold the rights and freedoms of theindividual, and resist attempts to underminethem.”

上星期,我給選民的最後一份立法會年報剛完稿,我說:我希望你會同意,我信守了我對你的承諾。張健利,我的塵緣了未?
