Chinese VP meets with HK youth delegation

Xinhua, July 25, 2016 Adjust font size:

Chinese Vice President Li Yuanchao on Monday met with a delegation from the Hong Kong Girl Guides Association, stressing patriotism.

Hong Kong's return to the motherland 19 years ago has proved that the "one country, two systems" policy and the Basic Law have won extensive support from the Chinese people, including people from Hong Kong, and praise from the international community, Li said while meeting with the delegation, which is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the association.

Li said he hopes Hong Kong youth carry on the patriotic tradition of the Chinese people and "love our country and nation from the heart."

He also called on them to "fully and accurately" understand the "one country, two systems" policy, actively safeguard Hong Kong's prosperity and stability and seize opportunities to strive for Hong Kong's bright future. Endit
