"Not only does it mean the union of the two halves of this great
city, so that the seat of Government and commerce is now joined by road to
the industrial and residential areas and to the New Territories, but, being
an enterprise which is both very imaginative and very sophisticated, it
symbolises the stature of the new Hong Kong, which is today one of the major
commercial, financial and tourist centres of the world.
"I feel very privileged that you have asked me to unveil this
plaque which commemorates the completion of such a bold and successful venture."
