The conflict between the Hong Kong University Council and the President Zhang Xiang has become public in the past year, leading to the establishment of a special task force by Chief Executive Carrie Lam to investigate the issues. Despite Lam's intervention, controversies regarding personnel appointments remain unresolved. The dispute is seen by some as a conflict between local and foreign elites while others view it as a matter of personal style. The appointment of two mainland Chinese scholars as vice-presidents at HKU has raised concerns about academic freedom and the potential impact on higher education in Hong Kong.
