Sessions on "Spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC" held by Southern, Yuen Long, Tsuen Wan, Kwai Tsing, Central and Western and Kwun Tong District Offices (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     The report delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) emphasises that the "one country, two systems" principle is the best institutional arrangement for ensuring sustained prosperity and stability in Hong Kong after its return to the motherland, and must be adhered to over the long term. The report also supports Hong Kong to play a greater role in realising the national rejuvenation by developing its economy, improving livelihoods and better integrating into the nation's overall development. The discussion on the "one country, two systems" principle in the report is a key action guide for Hong Kong to promote the transition from chaos to order and to advance from stability to prosperity. An accurate understanding of the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC is conducive to ensuring the robustness of the "one country, two systems" principle and enabling Hong Kong to better integrate into the nation's overall development. The Southern District Office (SDO), the Yuen Long District Office (YLDO), the Tsuen Wan District Office (TWDO), the Kwai Tsing District Office (K&TDO), the Central and Western District Office (C&WDO) and the Kwun Tong District Office (KTDO) each held sessions in recent days and invited different keynote speakers with the aim of enabling Hong Kong youths and district figures to concisely grasp the essentials and connotations from the report and implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC.

     The SDO, together with the Hong Kong Southern District Community Association, the Southern District Constructive Power, and the Hong Kong Island Federation Southern District Committee held a session on "Spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC" at Wah Kwai Community Hall today (November 7).

The District Officer (Southern), Mr Francis Cheng, also delivered a speech at the session. They expressed that "one country, two systems" is the best system for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) to maintain long-term prosperity and stability, and people must stay true to the letter and spirit of "one country, two systems". They also called upon us to uphold the ethos underpinning the 20th National Congress of the CPC and strive to achieve the second centenary goal of the nation.
