In a lively forum on Saturday, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) marked the 5th anniversary of its national security law. Implemented on June 30, 2020, this law is credited with steering the region from challenging times to a period of stability and renewed progress under the "One Country, Two Systems" principle.
Xia Baolong, head 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, emphasized that the law has safeguarded national sovereignty, security, and development interests, while also protecting the welfare of Hong Kong residents and encouraging overseas investors.
For young professionals and tech enthusiasts, this milestone is more than just an anniversary—it represents a foundation for a secure and innovative future. Think of it like upgrading your device's software: a stable system creates the perfect environment for creativity and growth. 🚀
As Hong Kong stands at a critical juncture of development, today's forum reaffirms the commitment to fully implement the prime principles that have helped build a stable and prosperous society. The message is clear: maintaining security paves the way for new opportunities and continued progress.
