2022-06-01

"At a critical stage of transition from chaos to governance and from governance to prosperity, I hope to build a caring, inclusive, promising and dynamic Hong Kong that connects the world and integrates into the overall national development situation." A few days ago, Li Jiachao received an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency reporters in the office of the chief executive designate, and answered questions one by one on how to open a new chapter for Hong Kong, solve the demands of the people's livelihood, safeguard national security, implement the "Patriot governing Hong Kong", and further integrate into the overall situation of national development. Opening a new chapter requires a new attitude "Opening a new chapter for Hong Kong together" is the vision and belief repeatedly emphasized by Li Jiachao. What is the new Hong Kong Chapter in his vision? "The first is the same, common meaning." Li Jiachao emphasized team spirit. The government should work with all sectors of society and the general public to solve problems. Second, opening a new chapter requires a new attitude, that is, to solve problems with the goal of common results. "There are many problems, but if you solve one every day, there will be 365 in a year. If you accumulate, you should have achievements." "Third, the new chapter of Hong Kong hopes to create a stable and safe Hong Kong with full development opportunities in five years, and solve many problems through development." Li Jiachao's election platform contains four outlines, including strengthening the government's ability to govern and unite to solve the people's difficulties; Streamlining procedures to provide more places to live; Comprehensively enhance competitive strength and create space for sustainable development; Build a caring and inclusive society together to increase opportunities for upward mobility of youth. These four outlines are interrelated. "I am a pragmatic person." He admitted that he knew that the society had different demands, but it was important to do things well. "After I take office, I will discuss with the team the priorities within each policy area." "People oriented" is an important governance concept In Li Jiachao's political philosophy, "people first" is the most important policy and idea. "The government should deal with the most concerned issues of the public." Lijiachao frankly said that new problems will arise at every stage. "The most important thing for the government to achieve effective governance is not only to do what they think is right, but to do what the people most want the government to do.". For example, people have great demands on housing, "so I take the housing problem as my main responsibility to solve it from the aspects of 'speed, efficiency and quantity'. Regarding the supply of land and housing, Li Jiachao said: "as soon as I take office, I will study the establishment of the 'public housing project action team' and the 'land and housing supply coordination team', both of which will be coordinated and led by the secretary." "Especially with regard to the 'action team on public housing projects', I asked it to hand over its first report 100 days after taking office and put forward suggestions on accelerating housing supply." Li Jiachao said that the "early public housing plan" proposed in his political platform should also determine which projects are possible as soon as possible. Li Jiachao felt that he should "step by step" on matters of disagreement. "I hope to resolve differences with actions, win trust with results, and accumulate mutual trust with achievements." He believes that people can have different views on issues such as people's livelihood, politics and development, but with mutual trust, we can minimize differences and unite the strength of society. Unswervingly safeguard national security In recent years, in response to major events such as the "storm of amending regulations" and the implementation of Hong Kong's national security law, Li Jiachao stood firm, dared to take responsibility, and spared no effort to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests. "Always be vigilant about national security, because risks always exist." Lijiachao emphasized. He explained: "although the Hong Kong national security law has basically controlled some of the most critical risks, it is still our constitutional responsibility to do a good job in the legislation of Article 23 of the Hong Kong Basic Law." "I think we should make a risk assessment from all aspects, and make a plan after the assessment to improve our safety factor." Regarding the so-called sanctions imposed on him by the United States, Li Jiachao said bluntly, "I scoff at these unreasonable sanctions.". He said that this actually more clearly shows the importance of national security, "so I will unswervingly continue to safeguard national security and ensure the development interests of our country". Give full play to the role of "patriots governing Hong Kong" In the election of the sixth chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region held on May 8, Li Jiachao was elected by a large number of votes. "Trust is a great responsibility, but this responsibility is also my motivation." He said. This is the first Chief Executive election since Hong Kong improved its electoral system. It is also an important election to consolidate the implementation of the principle of "patriots governing Hong Kong". Li Jiachao pointed out that the chief executive elected under the new electoral system has the responsibility to form a patriotic and Hong Kong loving governance team and lead the Hong Kong community to work together to open a new chapter. He believed that in order to release the value of "patriots governing Hong Kong", it is necessary for the administration and legislation to find new ways to create social value through communication and cooperation. "The legislature and I will make good use of 'patriots governing Hong Kong' to create effective governance capabilities." Lijiachao said. Give full play to the advantages of "one country, two systems" and contribute to the country At the press conference held after his election, Li Jiachao stressed that the new government should make good use of the advantages of the "one country, two systems" system, fully integrate into the overall situation of national development, deeply participate in the construction of Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Great Bay area and catch the fast train of economic development. He further pointed out in the exclusive interview that Hong Kong will make good use of the opportunities provided by the national "14th five year plan" and the construction of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Great Bay area, give full play to Hong Kong's advantages and make more contributions. He stressed that making good use of Hong Kong's unique advantages of "one country, two systems" is a key element to contribute to the country. "Under 'one country, two systems', Hong Kong is both a special zone of the country and a metropolis in line with the world. It is an independent customs territory." Lijiachao said that the outline of the 14th five year plan and the construction of Dawan district can consolidate Hong Kong's inherent advantages and add some emerging advantages to contribute to the country. "For its inherent advantages, such as the RMB offshore business center, we should make this advantage bigger and help the circulation of RMB. At the same time, we should use our financing risk management to make the Hong Kong International Financial Center bigger and stronger, which is certainly a direction." Lijiachao said. There is also room for giving full play to emerging advantages. For example, he said, building Hong Kong into a center for cultural and artistic exchanges between China and the rest of the world and an International Center for innovation and technology is an emerging advantage that is beneficial to both Hong Kong and the country. Let the "Pearl of the East" shine again July 1 this year will mark the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland. In the next five years, Hong Kong will face both opportunities and challenges. Li Jiachao hopes that five years later, Hong Kong will become a society that everyone feels has vitality, development opportunities, hope, care and integration. It has a deep national feeling, and the "Patriot governing Hong Kong" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. "A diverse and inclusive international metropolis, a lovely city, and everyone can embrace the advantages of Hong Kong." He said that Hong Kong residents will live a healthy life, develop academically, have the opportunity to start a business, and have less time to live and depend on for their old age. As far as mainland compatriots are concerned, "Hong Kong is a place where they can often visit, start businesses and find employment. It is a dynamic, colorful and promising Hong Kong under 'one country, two systems'." For the five very important years in his life, Li Jiachao was full of confidence: "I am ready!" "I believe that through joint efforts, Hong Kong, the 'Pearl of the East', can shine again." He said. (Xinhua News Agency)
