I would like to make the following
one, at this stage of political development, the public must fully realise that to implement
the principles of Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong'
Itting Kong SAR retaining
a high degree of autonomy, as stipulated in

or Britain granting them to us. Nor can we just

our behalf. Rather we must sweep aside the past conception
thought that, 'others will take care of this if
I donot.'; and turn this negative, timid and helpless attitude into a positive and enterprising spirit. that dares to make sacrifices, Only by so doing
can we inject life and hope into the campaign for democracy.

on the fate of Hong Kong and, as members of this generation of Hong Kong people, we should discharge 25 our historical duties and speak our minds on the
provisions of the Basic Law. I believe that the Chinese Government would not openly ignore strong public opinion.
