Recently, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress aproved amendments to Annex I and Annex II of the Hong Kong Basic Law to systematically modify and improve the methods for selecting the Chief Executive and the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. "Evening News" on CCTV1, "China News" on CCTV4 and "Global Today" have successively reported "Hong Kong from all walks of life: The PRC Government Improves the Election System to Ensure Hong Kong's Governance".
Dr. Bryan Lin Xiaohui, member of the Shenzhen Municipal Political Consultative Conference, member of the Standing Committee of the Futian District CPPCC, Vice Chairman of the Shenzhen Federation of Industry and Commerce, Chairman of the Futian District Federation of Industry and Commerce, Chairman of the Hong Kong Taxi Drivers Association, and Chairman of the Realord Group, said:
We, from business sector, agree with the decision of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on the five sectors of the Election Committee. It can better gather opinions across strata and sectors, and take care of and balance the interests of all sectors.
This is a milestone event in Hong Kong. Since then, the policy of "patriots adminstering Hong Kong" emphasized by President Xi can be truly implemented, and Hong Kong has the ballast stone to safeguard national security interests and govern the foundation.
The business community in Hong Kong has a long patriotic tradition. In the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong’s business community actively promoted domestic products and practiced “love the motherland and use domestic products”. After reform and opening-up, Hong Kong’s business community supported the construction of the hometown while also developing itself. Walking with the motherland, the situation in Hong Kong over the past few years has made everyone feel sad. Hong Kong is a traditional industrial and commercial society with a large number of elites in it.
The business community in Hong Kong will continue to participate in the elections and contribute to Hong Kong's return to the road. It has important practical significance for the stability and long-term development of "One Country, Two Systems".
