Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On said yesterday the main priority of his governance this year was to ensure the smooth transition to a new local government and the successful organisation of the so-called “double celebration”.
In a speech at the Spring Festival reception hosted by the Central People’s Government Liaison Office in Macau at Macau Tower, Chui pointed out that this year marks the “double celebration” of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the 20th anniversary of Macau’s return to the motherland.
The PRC was founded on October 1, 1949. The Macau Special Administrative Region (MSAR) was established on December 20, 1999.
