Chief Executive leaves for duty visit to Beijing


The Chief Executive, Mr Edmund Ho Hau Wah, is in Beijing today on his annual duty visit. Mr Ho will meet President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao. He will brief them on Macao's achievements in the past year and his plans for next year. Asked by the press on the constitutional development of Macao, Mr Ho said the processes of selecting the Chief Executive and the makeup of the Legislative Assembly, in and after 2009, would be formulated in accordance with the Basic Law. Mr Ho said the Government would begin to formulate these processes in a timely manner and it was not necessary to start next year, as there were a few years to go before 2009. Mr Ho said the community would be given adequate time to discuss the proposal. Mr Ho will return tomorrow. During his absence, the Secretary for Economy and Finance, Mr Francis Tam Pak Yuen, would act as Chief Executive.
