President Xi Jinping listened to Chief Executive Carrie Lam’s report on work yesterday (27th).

Tung Chee-hwa, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and former chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, told the media today (28th) that Hong Kong has faced multiple shocks from various quarters in the past year. The affirmation of the governance team is an encouragement and spur to its future work.

Tung Chee-hwa pointed out that Hong Kong should recognize that Hong Kong alone cannot effectively control the spread of the virus.

He also pointed out that Xi Jinping's concern and national support are Hong Kong's greatest political capital and advantage in fighting the epidemic, and it is also Hong Kong's luck.

Tung Chee-hwa told the "Hong Kong Commercial Daily" that since the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law for more than half a year, great governance after the chaos has been achieved. Only by insisting on "patriots ruling Hong Kong" and eliminating the anti-China chaos in Hong Kong is the guarantee of Hong Kong's long-term prosperity and stability. This is the prerequisite for the stability and long-term development of "One Country, Two Systems."

He also accused Xi Jinping of saying "I am very concerned and worried" when talking about the fourth wave of the new crown pneumonia outbreak in Hong Kong, which reflects his concern for Hong Kong people.

Xi Jinping particularly emphasized that the central government will take all measures to fully support the SAR government in fighting the epidemic, and emphasized that the motherland is a strong backing for Hong Kong.

Dong Jianhua said that controlling the epidemic is a fundamental and decisive prerequisite for restarting the economy.

It is Xi Jinping who puts the interests of the people first and the central government considers the people so that the epidemic in China can be effectively controlled in such a short period of time.

He emphasized that "facts speak louder than words."

Looking back on the anti-epidemic record in the past year or so, the European and American worlds are still precarious and mournful. The 20 most important economies in the world all recorded negative growth last year, with China alone.

Tung Chee-hwa pointed out that the lack of cooperation between China and the United States stems from a lack of understanding that the two countries can cooperate in epidemics, economics, etc.
