The Chief Executive's Council of Advisers, chaired by the Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu, held luncheon meetings for three consecutive days this week (July 9 to 11) to listen to the views expressed by its members for the forthcoming Policy Address and the overall development of Hong Kong.
The council conducted in-depth discussions on a range of important issues under three major themes, including economic advancement and sustainability, Innovation and entrepreneurship, and Regional and global collaborations.
Lee said members of the council are all distinguished and eminent leaders in their respective fields or internationally renowned scholars, experts or entrepreneurs.
He thanks all members for actively providing him with valuable insights and wise counsel regarding the current situation and vision for future developments of Hong Kong.
“These contributions have provided important references for the overall development strategies of Hong Kong and the upcoming Policy Address,” said Lee.
He also welcomed the three new members of the CECA, including Zhu Min, who served as the Deputy Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund and the Deputy Governor of the People's Bank of China, along with two enterprises of Hangzhou's "Six Little Dragons" - the founder of BrainCo, Han Bi-cheng, and the founder of Unitree Robotics, Wang Xingxing, for attending the meetings in Hong Kong.
The three meeting sessions were chaired by the Chief Executive. The Chief Secretary for Administration, Chan Kwok-ki; Acting Financial Secretary, Michael Wong; Acting Secretary for Justice, Cheung Kwok-kwan; Director of the Chief Executive's Office, Carol Yip, and the Head of the Chief Executive's Policy Unit (CEPU), Stephen Wong, attended the three sessions respectively.
Lee will deliver his fourth Policy Address this September, for which the public consultation commenced on June 16.
