One country, two systems? With the successful implementation of the great concept and the full implementation of the Basic Law, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has made unprecedented achievements in various fields. As a beautiful pearl in the embrace of the motherland, Hong Kong is increasingly shining brilliantly.

It will be the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong's return in half a month. What has changed and what hasn't? Change? With what? The same? What kind of development track can you see in Hong Kong?

On an ordinary Wednesday in late May, Hong Kong ushered in the strongest rainstorm this year. In the evening, it is still raining, but the Happy Valley Racecourse in the south-central part of Wan Chai District is full of excitement. Every Wednesday night is horse racing day. Hong Kong local horse fans and tourists from all over the world gather.

At 7 pm 15, the game starts on time. When the horse race galloped, the audience cheered in the rain. Horse racing is still one of Hong Kong people's favorite recreational activities.

? Run by horse, fry by stock, dance by dance? Deng Xiaoping described it like this before the reunification? One country, two systems? This is actually a promise made by the central government that Hong Kong's political and economic systems will remain unchanged for 50 years. Tung Chee-hwa, the first chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, said that the promise of returning to China for 20 years has not changed. The normal life and habits of Hong Kong people have not changed. what has changed? There are many more people who speak Mandarin, and everyone has begun to understand this country and have more contacts. Especially after contact and economic interaction, Hong Kong's economy used to rely more on the mainland through trade with the United States and Europe. These are great changes. ?

Li Xiuheng immigrated to Hong Kong from the mainland with his parents in the 1960s and 1970s, and started his business in the 1980s, becoming one of the first Hong Kong businessmen to invest and build factories in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. Li Xiuheng, who had no choice but to move her factory to Hong Kong, did not expect that it was this kind of industrial transfer that won her opportunities for future development. Today, Li Xiuheng is already a billionaire Hong Kong? Watch the king? .

When talking about the economic and trade development between Hong Kong and the Mainland, Li Xiuheng said that the integration of the two has never changed in the past 20 years, but the relationship between the two has changed. After the reunification, with the strong economic strength of the country, how can Hong Kong's economic development conform to the development of the country? Our functions have changed. It used to be an investment, but now it has many functions. Hong Kong should play the role of a financial, trade and logistics center. ?

Some people say that the GDP of Hong Kong 1997 is equivalent to more than 18% in the Mainland, but now it is only equivalent to about 3%. Hong Kong's advantages no longer exist, and its economic status is greatly reduced. Chen Maobo, the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong, reported a series of data and rankings to reporters: from 1997 to 20 16, Hong Kong's GDP increased from 1.37 trillion Hong Kong dollars to 2.49 trillion Hong Kong dollars, with an average annual growth rate of 3.2%, ranking among the best in developed economies. Hong Kong continues to maintain its position as an international financial, trade and shipping center, and has been rated as the freest economy in the world for 23 consecutive years. In the annual report on world competitiveness published by the International Institute for Management Development in Lausanne, Switzerland in recent two years, Hong Kong ranks first in the world. Chen Maobo said: Hong Kong's position and role in national development have not changed. Due to historical reasons, Hong Kong has a lot of experience in dealing with the international community, and our legal system is consistent with them. Therefore, we can definitely play the role of risk management for mainland enterprises to go global. We now advocate taking Hong Kong as the dispute resolution center, because this is the place in the world where Chinese can be spoken in common law. ?

In the 20 years since Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the common law system has been maintained because of the provisions of the Basic Law, which has guaranteed the rule of law and judicial independence in Hong Kong by the Constitution and enhanced the confidence of the international community in doing business in Hong Kong.

Yuan Guoqiang, Secretary for Justice of Hong Kong, said: They told me that if they invest in Asia, Hong Kong will definitely be the first place they think of. One of the reasons is our legal system. In the past 20 years, the common law in Hong Kong has not only been well continued, but also developed healthily and positively. Before the reunification, the cases of Hong Kong courts were rarely used in other common law countries, but after the reunification, the cases decided by the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal became important cases in common law countries in many fields. ?

The legal system in Hong Kong has remained basically unchanged, but the rule of law environment has been greatly improved. According to the data released by the World Bank, where is Hong Kong? World governance indicators? Research? Rule of law indicators? Significant progress has been made, from 1996 ranking more than 60 in the world to 20 105 ranking 1 1.

1999, 25-year-old Li Huiqiong campaigned to become the youngest female District Councillor in Hong Kong at that time. Today, in her early forties, she is the youngest and only female chairman of the Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB), the largest political party in the Legislative Council of Hong Kong and the largest political organization in Hong Kong. Li Huiqiong said that he witnessed and experienced the most democratic era in Hong Kong. With the reunification and the promulgation of the Basic Law, Hong Kong has experienced the most democratic era in 20 years. In the past, the Governor was appointed by the Queen of England, but now the Chief Executive is elected. In the past, the principal officials were mainly Hong Kong people. In the past, the Legislative Council was basically appointed, but now it is elected by the people. ?

Despite the continuous illegal activities in Hong Kong in recent years? Occupy central? Andrew Leung, chairman of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, firmly believes that the spirit of the rule of law has not been lost. Occupy China is a manifestation of young people's dissatisfaction with society, and some political parties use it. They believe that lofty ideas can violate the law. The key to Hong Kong's success is the rule of law, which is the core value of Hong Kong. ?

Speaking of 20 years of Hong Kong's return? Change? With what? The same? Zhang Xiaoming, director of the Hong Kong Liaison Office, summed it up like this: What people were worried about was that nothing had changed, most of what should have changed, and everyone wanted to change. what has changed? Most importantly, the legal status of Hong Kong has changed, from a region under British colonial rule to a local administrative region of People's Republic of China (PRC) with a high degree of autonomy. What has changed is that Hong Kong people are truly masters of their own affairs and enjoy unprecedented democratic rights and broader freedoms. What has changed is Hong Kong's new infrastructure, new urban outlook and visible or invisible progress in various social undertakings. What has changed is that Hong Kong has closer ties with the Mainland and has gained more direct, comprehensive and powerful support from the country's development. What has changed is that Hong Kong's foreign exchanges have been expanding and its international influence has been further enhanced.
