A. I would like to ask Mr Zhou Nan, an expert on
Hong Kong affairs to answer this question.
Zhou Nan.
า
In the past year since the signing of the (joint)
Sino-British Declaration on Hong Kong the agreement has
been on the whole implemented satisfactorily thanks to
the joint efforts of both sides. The Sino-British Joint
Liaison Group established in accordance with the joint
declaration has met three times and discussed matters and
reached agreement in these matters.
The Sino-British land- commission committee has met
for 9(?) sessions and much progress has also been made in
this work.
The Chinese government is determined to fully
implement the Sino-British declaration to the letter and
it is our belief that this conviction of ours is shared
by the British government.
We have every reason to believe that the
Sino-British Joint Declaration will be thoroughly
executed.
Thank you.
