Moreover, Hong Kong has gotten over a hard time in the past years, and he believes the current Chief Executive, Mr. John Lee will be working jointly with all sectors to embrace a better future for Hong Kong. In addition, he mentioned that he had contributed to suggesting the "result-oriented" approach raised by Mr. Lee earlier, and he believes that Hong Kong is moving toward a brighter future under his leadership.

Lastly, he wishes the corporations in Hong Kong a very prosperous future.

Mr. Stephen Liang, the Assistant Executive Director of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, expressed his appreciation of the flexibility of corporations in Hong Kong during the pandemic to seize the opportunities that follow.
