******************************************************************************************
The Yellow Emperor is the cultural ancestor of the Chinese nation, while Zhengzhou is the Yellow Emperor's birthplace. The Ancestor Worship Ceremony of the Yellow Emperor, jointly organised by the People's Government of Henan Province, the Henan Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, among others, is a significant event held annually in Henan Province to promote traditional Chinese culture.
Miss Mak expressed deepest gratitude for being invited to attend the Ancestor Worship Ceremony of the Yellow Emperor. Miss Mak added that Zhengzhou is one of the eight great ancient capitals of China and one of the important origins of the Chinese civilisation with profound historical and cultural heritage. By attending the meaningful event, Hong Kong compatriots can enhance their sense of national identity.
During her visit to Zhengzhou, Miss Mak met with the Executive Deputy Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, Mr Zhou Ji; the Secretary of the CPC Henan Provincial Committee and Director of the Standing Committee of the Henan Provincial People's Congress, Mr Liu Ning; and the Deputy Secretary of the CPC Henan Provincial Committee, Governor of Henan Province and Secretary of Party Leadership Group, Mr Wang Kai.
Moreover, Miss Mak met with Hong Kong students studying in Zhengzhou to learn about their lives on the Mainland. She encouraged young people to grasp the opportunities to study and exchange on the Mainland to gain a deeper understanding of the development of the country and contribute to the country and Hong Kong.
Miss Mak will conclude her visit and return to Hong Kong this afternoon.
