A photo exhibition capturing the latest developments in Macao has opened in Beijing today as one of the Macao Special Administrative Region (MSAR) Government events to celebrate the fifth anniversary of its reunification with the Mainland. The Secretary for Administration and Justice, Ms Florinda Chan, the Deputy Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, Mr Chen Zuoer, the Director of the Government Information Bureau, Mr Victor Chan Chi Ping, the Director of the Office of the MSAR in Beijing, Mr Ng Pak Meng, and a representative of Macao’s photographers, Mr Au Ping, officiated at the opening ceremony. In her speech, Ms Chan said the Central Government had strongly supported the MSAR since its establishment on its strict adherence to the Basic Law and the principle of ''One country, two systems''. These factors helped build up the foundation for Macao's success, she said. She stressed that the MSAR's achievements in the first five years were only a starting point for the project of ''One country, two systems''. She said the Chief Executive, Mr Edmund Ho Hau Wah, made improving the quality of life of the people of Macao his ultimate goal. She believed that we would achieve it with unity and common efforts. On the photo exhibition, she said that it would bring Mainland residents a better and updated view of Macao. More than 120 pictures presented in the exhibition represented some important moments and the changes of the city in the past five years. The Macao Government Information Bureau and eight Macao photographic societies provided the pictures. The photo exhibition is being held at the Office of the MSAR in Beijing until 12 December.
