In an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency, Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and former Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying said "One Country, Two Systems" is a scientific, feasible and viable system.
He emphasized that Hong Kong is a part of the country, and "democracy in Hong Kong" should not be confused with "democracy in a sovereign country". The development of democracy in Hong Kong must abide by the national constitution and the Basic Law of Hong Kong.
Leung Chun-ying pointed out that "improving the electoral system" ensures that "patriots govern Hong Kong." At present, the living environment of Hong Kong citizens is more stable, the relationship between the executive and the legislature is smoother, the governance efficiency of the SAR has been improved, and global investors have more confidence in Hong Kong's future.
He believes that what has happened in Hong Kong in the past two or three years has been smeared by Western politicians and the media. Hong Kong must communicate with its close partners as soon as possible to clarify the truth and the truth. Hong Kong has many advantages as a "super contact". It is necessary to fully coordinate and develop together with the state.
Leung Chun-ying mentioned that in the five years since he left office, he has been to Guangdong more than 100 times, and 70% of his working time is spent on promoting exchanges and cooperation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
He took the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology settled in Nansha, Guangzhou as an example to illustrate the complementary advantages of Guangdong and Hong Kong: "Hong Kong has no downstream manufacturing industry to undertake the scientific research achievements of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and Guangdong has a strong ability to transform. ” He believes that as the country develops, Hong Kong will have a broader stage for career development, especially for young people of all ages.
