HK benefits from growth of motherland

It is imperative to fully and faithfully implement the policies of "one country, two systems", "the people of Hong Kong governing Hong Kong" and "the people of Macao governing Macao", and a high degree of autonomy for both regions,

General Secretary Xi Jinping said in his report to the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on Oct 18. It is imperative, too, that people in the two special administrative regions strictly comply with China's Constitution and the basic laws of their respective regions.

Xi emphasized "fully and faithfully" implementing the policies because there are some misunderstandings of the principle of "one country, two systems" in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Some Hong Kong residents are trying to deny the central government's overall jurisdiction over the SAR and the fact that the country's Constitution and the Hong Kong Basic Law both form the constitutional basis of Hong Kong. Some Hong Kong residents are even unwilling to accept the political relationship between the central government and the SAR.
