FS: HK can accelerate progress of specific aspects for new growth

Financial Secretary Paul Chan says Hong Kong can accelerate progress in three areas to create a new growth curve for the future.

In his latest blog post, Chan says during the recent celebration of the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly pointed out that promoting the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao is an inherent requirement for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Chan believes there are several specific aspects that can be accelerated, including promoting the internationalisation of the Renminbi and the interconnection of financial markets, participating in the construction of the national modern industrial system, and supporting broader regional and global cooperation with international and professional service capabilities.
