On the 17th, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam met with the media before attending the Executive Council and stated that the SAR government will fully prepare the "Hong Kong Five Year Plan" and conduct public consultation around the fourth quarter of this year. The official text of the "Hong Kong Five Year Plan" will be released before the end of the year. Li Jiachao said that preparing a five-year plan for Hong Kong can strengthen and better leverage Hong Kong's advantages. The planning committee will formulate five-year visions and goals for each key area, allowing Hong Kong citizens to have a clearer understanding of the thriving development of Hong Kong in the next five years. The planning will establish a continuous dynamic cycle of developing the economy and improving people's livelihoods, allowing Hong Kong citizens to share the fruits of development and continuously enhance their well-being. Li Jiachao stated that the staffing work will be led by him, with the responsibility of the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau of the Special Administrative Region Government, and all departments and directors of the Special Administrative Region Government fully promoting and participating together. The preparation of the 'Hong Kong Five Year Plan' will be completed within this year. ”Li Jiachao said that in order to assist the SAR government in completing its work within a tight time frame, he suggested establishing a collaborative research and opinion collection mechanism between the SAR government and the Legislative Council under the leadership of the executive, and leveraging the partnership power of benign interaction and mutual cooperation between the executive and legislative branches. On the same day, the Development Bureau of the Special Administrative Region Government submitted a discussion document to the Development Affairs Committee of the Special Administrative Region Legislative Council, introducing the idea of enacting exclusive legislation to accelerate the construction of the northern metropolitan area and seeking opinions from members. Li Jiachao expressed his hope that exclusive laws can loosen the planning and land administration procedures in Beidu, allowing for flexible and dynamic planning of Beidu land. At the same time, different convenient measures can be taken to accelerate the progress of projects, and cross-border factor flow can be facilitated to assist industries in settling in Beidu.
