Ng said Tsang, who is expected to become Hong Kong chief executive next month, refused to meet the group when he was financial secretary.
However, as Tsang is now chairman of the Council for Sustainable Development, which gathers opinion and formulates strategy on the environment, he has an obligation to listen to green groups, Ng said. ``His response this time will show whether he has an open mind and is willing to listen to different views on the environment.
``Quality of life and quality of environment should be the cornerstones of a visionary leader.''
