How it's used

This phrase is formal in nature and typically appears in business or legal contexts where someone is granted complete autonomy over a project or decision. It implies that the person does not need to seek further approval from superiors before taking action. While it sounds professional, it is frequently used in spoken Cantonese when delegating significant responsibilities to a trusted colleague.

Common mistake

Do not confuse this with simply having the ability to do something. It specifically denotes the delegation of power and the absence of a need for oversight, which makes it inappropriate for minor, routine tasks.
