Financial Secretary Paul Chan said on Sunday that Hong Kong will be more aggressive in developing innovation technology, so it can integrate more thoroughly into China’s overall economic development strategy.
Writing in his blog, Chan congratulated the Chinese Communist Party for the successful 20th congress which concluded on Saturday.
“Under the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping’s Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, One Country Two Systems will strive to become more stable and successful, facilitated Hong Kong’s success story, and will continue to write even more magnificent chapters in future.”
Chan also noted that Chief Executive John Lee had outlined in his Policy Address that Hong Kong will strive for high-quality and pluralistic growth.
The financial secretary said Hong Kong will shoulder its responsibilities and be fully committed to the efforts of rejuvenating the Chinese nation, adding the SAR will also use economic development to create the conditions to resolve “deep-seated conflicts” in society.
