The general assembly to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland and the inauguration ceremony of the sixth government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region were grandly held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center on the morning of January 1. He stressed that over the past 25 years, with the full support of the motherland and the joint efforts of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government and all sectors of society, the practice of "one country, two systems" has achieved universally recognized success in Hong Kong. "One country, two systems" has been repeatedly tested in practice. It is in line with the fundamental interests of the state and the nation, and the fundamental interests of Hong Kong and Macao. It has received the full support of more than 1.4 billion people of the motherland, the unanimous support of Hong Kong and Macao residents, and the general approval of the international community. Such a good system has no reason to change and must be adhered to for a long time. The atmosphere in the venue was solemn and warm. On the rostrum, the national flag and emblem of the people's Republic of China and the regional flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region were particularly eye-catching. At about 10 a.m., the celebration meeting and inauguration ceremony began. All stand up and sing the National Anthem of the people's Republic of China. Li Jiachao was first sworn in. Facing the national flag of the people's Republic of China, the national emblem and the regional flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, he raised his right hand and solemnly swore in accordance with the basic law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Afterwards, the oath was administered by Li Jiachao and the members of the Executive Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region were sworn in. First of all, he extended sincere greetings to all Hong Kong residents, extended warm congratulations to Li Jiachao, the newly appointed sixth chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the principal officials of the sixth government and members of the Executive Council, and expressed heartfelt thanks to compatriots at home and abroad and international friends who supported the cause of "one country, two systems" and the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong. The modern history of China after the Opium War recorded the humiliation of Hong Kong being forced to cede, but also recorded the struggle of the Chinese people to save the nation from subjugation. The magnificent hundred year struggle history that the Communist Party of China United and led the people has recorded the unique and important contributions made by Hong Kong compatriots. Throughout history, Hong Kong compatriots have always been in the same boat with the motherland and are closely related by blood. Everything the central government has done is for the good of the country, Hong Kong and Macao, and Hong Kong and Macao compatriots. "One country, two systems" has been repeatedly tested in practice. It is in line with the fundamental interests of the state and the nation, and the fundamental interests of Hong Kong and Macao. It has received the full support of more than 1.4 billion people of the motherland, the unanimous support of Hong Kong and Macao residents, and the general approval of the international community. Such a good system has no reason to change and must be adhered to for a long time. Only by deeply understanding and accurately grasping the practical law of "one country, two systems", can we ensure that the cause of "one country, two systems" is always moving steadily in the right direction. First, we must fully and accurately implement the policy of "one country, two systems". The principle of "one country, two systems" is a complete system. Safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests is the highest principle of the "one country, two systems" policy. On this premise, Hong Kong and Macao will maintain their original capitalist systems for a long time and enjoy a high degree of autonomy. Comprehensively and accurately implementing the policy of "one country, two systems" will create infinite and broad development space for Hong Kong and Macao. The stronger the principle of "one country", the more obvious the advantages of "two systems". Second, we must uphold the unity of the central government's overall governance and the protection of the high degree of autonomy of special administrative regions. The central government has comprehensive governance over the special administrative regions, which is the source of the high degree of autonomy of the special administrative regions. At the same time, the central government fully respects and firmly upholds the high degree of autonomy enjoyed by the special administrative regions according to law. The implementation of the central government's overall governance and the protection of the high degree of autonomy of the special administrative regions are unified, and only by doing this can the special administrative regions be well governed. Third, we must implement "patriots govern Hong Kong". Political power must be in the hands of patriots, which is a universal political law in the world. To firmly hold the power of governance of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in the hands of patriots is an inevitable requirement to ensure the long-term stability of Hong Kong, and cannot be shaken at any time. To protect the right of governance is to protect the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and the vital interests of more than 7 million Hong Kong residents. Fourth, we must maintain Hong Kong's unique position and advantages. Relying on the motherland and connecting the world is Hong Kong's unique and significant advantage. The central government fully supports Hong Kong in maintaining its unique status and advantages for a long time, consolidating its status as an international financial, shipping and Trade Center, maintaining a free, open and standardized business environment, maintaining the common law system, and expanding unimpeded and convenient international links. In the historical process of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, Hong Kong is bound to make great contributions. Second, we will continue to enhance the momentum of development and fully unleash the tremendous creativity and development vitality of Hong Kong society. Third, we will effectively address people's livelihood concerns and difficulties, so that the fruits of development can benefit all citizens more and more equitably. Fourth, jointly maintain harmony and stability and jointly create a better life. We should lead young people to have a deep understanding of the general trend of national and world development, and enhance their sense of national pride and ownership. We should help young people solve the practical difficulties they face in their studies, employment, entrepreneurship and home ownership, and create more opportunities for them to grow and become talents. I hope every young man in Hong Kong will devote himself to the construction of a better Hong Kong and write a wonderful life with his fiery youth. Promoting the successful practice of "one country, two systems" in Hong Kong is an important part of this historical process. We firmly believe that with the firm support of the great motherland and the solid guarantee of the principle of "one country, two systems", Hong Kong will be able to create greater glory and share the glory of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with the people of the motherland on the new journey to achieve China's second Centennial goal. In his speech, Li Jiachao said that as the sixth chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, I feel extremely honored and deeply aware of the great responsibility. I will lead the governance team to make every effort to unite all sectors of Hong Kong society, fully and accurately implement the principles of "one country, two systems", "Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong", and a high degree of autonomy, safeguard the constitutional order of the Special Administrative Region as defined in the Constitution and the basic law, safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests, ensure the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and contribute to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Ding Xuexiang, Xu Qiliang, Shen Yueyue, Wang Yi and Xia Baolong attended the celebration meeting and inauguration ceremony. Liang Zhenying, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference, he Yicheng, chief executive of the Macao Special Administrative Region, Carrie Lam, former chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, as well as representatives and special guests from all walks of life in Hong Kong also attended the celebration meeting and inauguration ceremony.
