The extraordinary achievements are inseparable from the full support of the central government and the mainland of the motherland, the struggle of all sectors of society, and the efforts of the SAR government.

Since last year, under the new electoral system, Hong Kong has successively held elections for the Election Committee, the seventh Legislative Council election, and the sixth-term Chief Executive election, all of which have been successful. The foundation of "patriots ruling Hong Kong" has been further consolidated.

Standing at a new historical starting point, the majority of Hong Kong compatriots have full confidence in the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and are full of expectations for the new SAR government.

　　Currently, Hong Kong is in a critical period from chaos to governance to governance to prosperity.

Whether we can seize the critical period, nurture new opportunities, and start a new game is very important in the next five years.

President Xi Jinping put forward four hopes: focus on improving the level of governance, continuously enhance the momentum of development, effectively solve the problems of people's livelihood, and jointly maintain harmony and stability.

The Hong Kong SAR government must bear in mind the important instructions of President Xi, live up to the heavy trust, work hard and make great efforts to build and develop Hong Kong better.

　　To seize the critical period of the next five years, we must make good use of the "governance method", be confident and self-improvement, check and fill in the gaps, improve the governance system, improve the governance capacity, and enhance the governance efficiency.

The Chief Executive and the SAR government must faithfully fulfill their vows, shoulder the burden of "being a family member" in Hong Kong, have the courage to take on responsibilities, act proactively, and serve the SAR wholeheartedly.

It is necessary to unite the broadest possible forces. Hong Kong residents, no matter what profession they pursue or what they believe in, can contribute as long as they sincerely support the "one country, two systems" policy, as long as they love Hong Kong as their homeland, and as long as they abide by the Basic Law and the laws of the Special Administrative Region.

　　A scholar must be courageous and have a long way to go.

It is believed that the new Hong Kong SAR government will unite and lead all sectors of the Hong Kong community to seize opportunities and meet challenges, work hard and act persistently, carry forward the fine tradition of tolerance and mutual assistance, seeking common ground while reserving differences, unremitting self-improvement, fighting hard and daring to win, and showing a new atmosphere of good governance and good governance. , Create a new situation of free governance and prosperity, and share the glory of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with the people of the motherland!
