A spokesman for the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region said in a statement on the 3rd that the seventh Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has been formed according to law, and 90 members of the Legislative Council have been sworn in by the chief executive. In the new stage of Hong Kong's development, I believe that the new Legislative Council can perform its duties in accordance with the functions and powers stipulated in the basic law, resolutely safeguard the executive led system, support and supervise the administration of the SAR Government in accordance with the law, serve the general public, and make positive contributions to safeguarding the overall and long-term interests of Hong Kong. The spokesman pointed out that the national emblem is solemn and the oath is clank. The first hanging of the national emblem at the venue where members of the Legislative Council took the oath reflects the legal status of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as a local administrative region of the people's Republic of China under "one country, two systems" and reflects the implementation of the principle of "Patriot governing Hong Kong" in the legislature. The new members are diverse, balanced and professional, represent the interests of the majority of voters, and reflect the broad participation of all sectors of society. It is hoped that members of this Council will bear in mind the "great power of the country", care for all citizens, firmly safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, the overall long-term interests of Hong Kong, and the fundamental well-being of Hong Kong citizens, demonstrate the strong vitality of the democratic system with Hong Kong characteristics under the "one country, two systems", widely pool consensus with a healthy and high-quality parliamentary culture, and promote the development and progress of Hong Kong society. The spokesman said that according to the public service (election and appointment) (Miscellaneous Amendments) Ordinance 2021, which came into force on May 21, 2021, the chief executive will administer oaths for members of the seventh Legislative Council, which marks the further establishment and improvement of the oath of allegiance system for public officials in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and reflects the due meaning of the executive led system established in the basic law. The spokesman stressed that the time is new. At present, Hong Kong has achieved a major turning point from chaos to governance, and is in the initial stage of moving towards good governance. The task of developing the economy and improving people's livelihood is very arduous. The deep-seated contradictions and problems accumulated for a long time need to be solved, and the rapid changes in the external environment and intensified competition need to be dealt with, The historical opportunity to integrate into the overall situation of national development and give play to the bridge role of "domestic and international double circulation" needs to be firmly grasped. Time does not wait. The whole society has high hopes for the new Legislative Council. It is expected that all members will not change their original minds, adhere to their commitment to serving the people, work together with the SAR government and all sectors of society under the leadership of the chief executive, work together to solve outstanding economic and livelihood problems, actively promote social fairness and justice, and create a better future for Hong Kong.
