On the 8th, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Carrie Lam, congratulated all successfully elected legislators on behalf of the SAR government and thanked 161 candidates from different sectors, professions, backgrounds, and various sectors of society for their active participation. Li Jiachao stated that at a time when Hong Kong society is facing challenges together, the successful holding of the election has profound significance, reflecting the determination of voters to support the post disaster reconstruction and reform of the SAR government, support the election of capable and ambitious Legislative Council members to support disaster victims and post disaster reconstruction, promote institutional reform, and also demonstrate the spirit of unity, love, and mutual assistance among citizens. Li Jiachao said that the successful holding of the Legislative Council election as scheduled is a sign of compliance and respect for the constitutional order and the spirit of the rule of law. This election is the second Legislative Council election after implementing the principle of "patriots governing Hong Kong" and improving the electoral system. Candidates actively participated in 39 public election forums, engaging in high-quality and high-level healthy competition, reflecting the principles of broad representation, balanced participation, and fair competition. Li Jiachao expressed gratitude to every voter who actively exercised their rights and fulfilled their responsibilities, actively voted during the important moment of promoting post disaster reconstruction, united to face challenges, and elected the 8th Legislative Council members who love their country, love Hong Kong, and possess both virtue and talent, to work together with the SAR government to build a better home for Hong Kong. Li Jiachao stated that the overall voting process was smooth, and the SAR government will summarize its experience and further optimize each link. Thank you to the Electoral Affairs Commission for its comprehensive and thorough preparation, as well as the dedication and efforts of all personnel and volunteers involved in the election work, which enabled the election to be successfully completed in an open, fair, honest, safe and orderly manner. Li Jiachao said that Hong Kong society has experienced a difficult period brought about by the fire, and he hopes that members of the 8th Legislative Council and the SAR government will work together to promote post disaster support and reconstruction work. Through debates, legislative reviews and revisions, systematic reforms will be implemented to make Hong Kong safer and citizens more at ease. Li Jiachao stated that under the principle of administrative leadership and "patriots governing Hong Kong", the executive and legislative branches will further interact in a positive manner, cooperate and balance each other, open up new prospects in innovative reforms, continue to develop the economy, and improve people's livelihoods. I firmly believe that the new Legislative Council members will go deep into the community, connect with various sectors, understand public sentiment, provide suggestions and recommendations, and work together with the SAR government to lead Hong Kong to deepen reforms and create a better future.
