FS speaks on “The Chief Executive’s 2018 Policy Address” (with video)

     Following is the transcript of remarks by the Financial Secretary, Mr Paul Chan, at a media session on "The Chief Executive's 2018 Policy Address" at the Legislative Council Complex today (October 10):
 
Reporter: The foreign ministry said it issued a statement, other foreign bodies issued statements demanding the authorities for an explanation. Isn't it already a sign that Hong Kong's image has greatly been damaged?
 
Financial Secretary: The Chief Executive and the Chief Secretary for Administration have both indicated the stance of the Hong Kong SAR Government, and in this respect I do not have anything particular to supplement. But keeping "one country, two systems" is very dear to our hearts, and this is the most important foundation for our economic development. We will preserve it and defend it, of course. Thank you.
