The Official Gazette mistakenly published last week that the suspended Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) official Lei Wai Nong has “extended his appointment for two more years as director of the Printing Bureau.” Lei Wai Nong was accused of malfeasance in an irregular cemetery grave-granting process, but was later ruled innocent by the courts last June. According to the Secretary for Administration and Justice, Sonia Chan, Lei is still under suspension, as the judicial process is not over yet. The secretary apologized to the public, saying that the error might have been made due to IACM workers being overburdened. The IACM director, Alex Wong, clarified yesterday that the notification was an error and would be corrected shortly.
CE meets UN University rector
Chief Executive Chui Sai On exchanged views with the United Nations University (UNU) rector, David Malone, concerning Macau’s higher education development during his visit to the city yesterday. The rector expressed gratitude to the MSAR for providing good facilities to the UNU International Institute for Software Technology, a research training center based in Macau, and introduced the institute’s newly appointed director. He also praised the MSAR government for its strategic vision, and recognized its concept of “advancing in economy and education at the same time.” The rector will visit the University of Macau’s new campus in Hengqin today, which, in Chui’s opinion, “represents a new concept of Macau’s educational development.”
