After the implementation of the "Minato National Security Law", "immigration" became one of the keywords for Hong Kong people to search online. Carrie Lam responded by saying that Hong Kong residents have freedom of entry and exit under the Basic Law. Everyone has different considerations at different stages of their lives. She respects this freedom of Hong Kong people, but at the same time hopes that citizens still have feelings and confidence in Hong Kong. With the support of the central government, Hong Kong still has plenty of room for development.

"Many voices of opposition in the market make the public resent the government"

Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor believes that there has been a lot of opposition in the market, and these words have affected many citizens. It even made the public feel disgusted with the SAR government and even misled by the opposition. Lam Cheng Ming said that when the case comes, we will start from different directions such as education and publicity to improve the image of the SAR government.

Carrie Lam also pointed out that Hong Kong will gradually integrate into the overall development of the country, and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is actually a one-hour living circle. Carrie Lam also suggested that future elections should provide overseas voting rights to Hong Kong people working in the Greater Bay Area, because these people are also Hong Kong residents and they have close ties to Hong Kong and should be able to exercise their voting rights. In addition, she mentioned whether there are any special arrangements for the elderly to vote, saying that all these measures can be reviewed.
