*******************************************************************************
     The Civil Service College held a talk on "Xi Jinping Thought on Culture" at the Central Government Offices today (March 19). The talk was delivered by Vice President of the National Academy of Governance Mr Li Wentang.

     Addressing the talk, the Secretary for the Civil Service, Mrs Ingrid Yeung, said that Xi Jinping Thought on Culture serves as the theoretical guidance for the development of a socialist culture with Chinese Characteristics for a new era. It emphasises strengthening cultural confidence, upholding openness and inclusiveness, and adhering to fundamental principles and breaking new ground. The significance of Xi Jinping Thought on Culture lies not only in the inheritance and development of traditional Chinese culture, but also in providing spiritual strength for achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through the promotion of building a strong cultural nation. 

     She pointed out that Hong Kong possesses a unique advantage in the integration of Chinese and Western cultures. Hong Kong should leverage its role as "a platform for cultural exchange between China and the West" to promote the inheritance and innovation of the fine traditional Chinese culture, and facilitate the exchange and mutual learning between Chinese and other cultures. Hong Kong should tell the international community the story of the successful implementation of "one country, two systems" in China to attract more talent from across the world for enhancing its international competitiveness and influence, and make greater contributions to the high-level opening up of the country. 

     About 160 politically appointed officials and civil servants in the directorate, senior and middle ranks attended the talk today.
