The Central Government has fully recognised the work done by Chief Executive Tung Chee Hwa and the Special Administrative Region Government, President Hu Jintao says.

At the meeting, President Hu said the Hong Kong Government headed by Mr Tung has united Hong Kong people, has seriously implemented "one country, two systems" and the Basic Law.

 

HK has overcome difficulties, challenges

President Hu noted Mr Tung and the Hong  KongGovernment have done a great pioneering job in the successful implementation of "one country, two systems" and made important contributions.

 

He also congratulated Mr Tung on his appointment as a CPPCC member.

 

President Hu reiterated 'one country, two systems', 'Hong Kong people governing Hong Kong' and a high degree of autonomy will be firmly implemented, adding the Hong Kong issue will be dealt with strictly in accordance with the Basic Law.

 

He also called on Hong Kong people to be more united to build Hong Kong into a better place.
