     The Chief Executive, Mrs Carrie Lam, today (July 23) specially hosted the three students who had written to Professor Peng at Government House to present them personally Professor Peng’s letter.
 
     During the gathering, Mrs Lam read out the letter and conveyed Professor Peng’s warm regards to the teachers and children of the school. “President Xi Jinping and Professor Peng Liyuan celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Return of Hong Kong to the Motherland with us last year, showing their care for Hong Kong. During her trip to Hong Kong, Professor Peng visited the kindergarten as part of her busy schedule. While at the kindergarten, she watched a performance by the students, played games with them and presented gifts to them. Now she has written them a personal reply, fully showing her care for Hong Kong students. I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Peng on behalf of the people of Hong Kong,” Mrs Lam said.
