Chief Executive CY Leung departed for Toronto and Chicago today, saying he will brief political and business leaders on Hong Kong’s latest economic developments.
He said he will outline Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, the mutual recognition of funds arrangement between Hong Kong and the Mainland, and Hong Kong’s role under the “One Belt, One Road” initiative.
Meanwhile, he urged pan-democrats to be rational in analysing the Central Government's, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's, and society's grounds for supporting the political reform package.
He said he hopes they will support the proposal and it can be passed .
