Rumor has it that Carrie Lam will take over as the Standing Committee?
Chen: Well, you can do whatever you want

It has allowed me to know more about the country, especially the interaction between Hong Kong and the country under the "one country, two systems", so I think 15 years is enough time. I hope More people have the opportunity to participate, and through the platform of the National People’s Congress to understand the national legislative process, how can we better represent Hong Kong at the national level.”
