[Commentary] On March 9, the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and vice president of the Hong Kong Sports Association and Olympic Committee of China, Huo Qigang, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency that it is recommended to introduce corresponding supporting measures to facilitate Hong Kong youths to enter the Greater Bay Area for further studies and employment. .
[Explanation] Huo Qigang believes that at the National Two Sessions this year, the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the draft of the 2035 long-term goal outline directly or indirectly mentioned the "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area" many times, which shows its important strategic position. This is Hong Kong. Youth provides a major opportunity.

On the whole, as a big country in China, I think this is really the second golden opportunity since the reform and opening up.
So I think in the general context, people in Hong Kong, especially young people, cannot be ignored.
[Explanation] Huo Qigang believes that young people in Hong Kong are currently facing the triple pressure of income, employment and housing. He encourages young people in Hong Kong to integrate into the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area for further education and employment, and hopes that corresponding policies will provide them with broad development space and opportunities.

For example, can the qualifications of the two places be mutually recognized, and can the Mainland enrollment adopt the Hong Kong college entrance examination assessment?
Will these certificates from the Mainland work after returning to Hong Kong?
For example, there can be a system of mutual recognition when studying in mainland China, returning to Hong Kong for employment or looking for a job.
There are many opportunities just mentioned in the Greater Bay Area, so if you study in the Mainland, you will know about these opportunities earlier and get in touch sooner.
[Commentary] Huo Qigang said that after Hong Kong experienced the double blow of the black storm and the epidemic, the society has been greatly affected.
Modifying and perfecting Hong Kong’s electoral system and insisting on "patriots ruling Hong Kong" can effectively solve the problems of rags and internal friction that have arisen in the administration of the SAR government.
It plays an important role in solving problems in Hong Kong society and improving people's livelihood.

Because what you see every day is destruction, you scold me and I scold you. I think this is not good for a country, a city, and for our development.
So I think I hope that after perfecting, our goals, our energy, our resources, and our advice and suggestions can be actively used to improve people's livelihood. I think it is also a responsible approach to the people of Hong Kong.
