The Legislative Assembly (AL) yesterday passed the outline of a government-initiated bill amending the existing local law on the use and protection of the national flag, national emblem and national anthem.
The amendment bill “localises” the country’s National Anthem Law to be applied in Macau, following its inclusion in Annex 3 of the Macau Basic Law as one of the national laws to be applied in the special administrative region.
Secretary for Administration and Justice Sonia Chan Hoi Fan introduced the outline of the bill during a plenary session in the legislature’s hemicycle yesterday.
