1964年，香港正處於持續發展的階段，社會面對的問題涉及城市建設、人口及日常生活等不同方面。當日報章刊登柏立基總督告別香港市民的消息，並以醒目的標題指出，香港問題的解決，最終仍然與香港居民息息相關。
報章以**「解決香港問題即『人』的問題｜全在居民肩上」**為題，強調香港未來的發展，不只是政府的責任，居民本身亦肩負重要角色。
In 1964, Hong Kong was undergoing continued development and facing a range of issues connected with the city and its people. On this occasion, the newspaper reported on Governor Black’s farewell message to the people of Hong Kong, highlighting the importance of residents themselves in addressing the city’s problems.
Under the headline “Solving Hong Kong’s Problems Is a Matter of People｜The Responsibility Rests with Residents”, the report emphasised that Hong Kong’s future was not solely a matter for the government, but also depended on the people who lived in the city.

這篇報道與柏立基總督滿任離港有關。報章指出，柏立基總督在離任前向香港市民發表談話，談及香港面對的問題，以及未來仍有不少工作需要完成。
報紙的標題特別突出「人」與「居民」兩個概念。它所表達的意思，是香港所面對的問題不能單靠政府處理，居民本身亦需要承擔責任，共同努力。
報道亦提到，香港的前途仍然有不少事情需要大家完成。這種說法反映當時對香港未來發展的看法：城市不斷發展的同時，也需要政府與市民共同面對各種問題。
這則新聞值得留意的地方，是它並沒有把香港的未來單純理解為政府施政問題，而是把居民本身的責任放在相當重要的位置。
對今天的讀者而言，這篇1964年的報道，也可以讓我們從當年的報章角度，了解當時香港對「政府與市民共同建設社會」這個概念的看法。
The report was connected with Governor Black’s departure from Hong Kong at the end of his term. Before leaving office, he addressed the people of Hong Kong and spoke about the problems facing the city and the work that still needed to be done.
The newspaper headline placed particular emphasis on the ideas of “people” and “residents.” Its message was that Hong Kong’s problems could not simply be dealt with by the government; residents themselves also had a responsibility to contribute and work together.
The report referred to the many tasks that still lay ahead for Hong Kong. This reflected the view that, as the city continued to develop, both the government and the community had roles to play in addressing its challenges.
What makes this report particularly interesting is that it did not present Hong Kong’s future simply as a matter of government administration. Instead, it placed significant emphasis on the responsibility of the residents themselves.
For readers today, this 1964 newspaper report provides a glimpse into how the relationship between government responsibility and civic participation was presented in Hong Kong at the time.
