Sessions on "Spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC" held by Eastern, Southern, Sha Tin, Kowloon City, Wong Tai Sin and Tsuen Wan 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 Eastern District Office (EDO), the Southern District Office (SDO), the Sha Tin District Office (STDO), the Kowloon City District Office (KCDO), the Wong Tai Sin District Office (WTSDO) and the Tsuen Wan District Office (TWDO) 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 EDO, in collaboration with the Hong Kong Eastern District Community Association, the Eastern Area Committees, the Eastern District Fight Crime Committee and the Eastern District Fire Safety Committee today (November 17) held a session on "The Eastern District Community to Learn about, Promote and Implement Spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC" at Causeway Bay Community Centre. The Deputy Director General of the Hong Kong Island Sub-office of the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government (LOCGG) in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Mr You Bin; Hong Kong Deputies to the National People's Congress (NPC) Mr Ng Chau-pei and Mr Wong Kwan-yu; Hong Kong Member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) Mr So Cheung-wing; Legislative Council (LegCo) Members Mr Kwok Wai-keung and Mr Leung Hei; the District Officer (Eastern), Mr Simon Chan; and the Executive Vice-president of the Hong Kong Eastern District Community Association, Mr Wong Kin-pan, served as keynote speakers to express their views and share how to spearhead the spirit at the district level. Over 350 participants attended the session, including community leaders in the Eastern District, representatives of local organisations, representatives of clansman associations and residents. 
 
      The SDO, together with the Southern District Constructive Power, the Hong Kong Southern District Community Association and the Hong Kong Island Federation Southern District Committee, today held a session on "Spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC" at Wah Kwai Community Centre. The Deputy Secretary for Justice, Mr Cheung Kwok-kwan; Hong Kong Deputy to the NPC Mr Nicholas Chan; and Hong Kong Member of the CPPCC, Mr Chau Hau Lap, were invited as the keynote speakers. They highlighted the importance of the report of the 20th National Congress of the CPC to the future developments of the nation and the globe.

The Deputy Director General of the Hong Kong Island Sub-office of the LOCPG in the HKSAR, Mr Wang Hui; LegCo Member Mr Chan Hok-fung; and the District Officer (Southern), Mr Francis Cheng, also spoke at the session. About 250 participants attended the session, including LegCo Member Ms Judy Chan and leaders of district bodies.
