DB Chairmen's Macau visit a success
The 18 District Board (DB) chairmen and their representatives today (Wednesday) paid the first-ever visit to Macau in a one-day trip arranged and co- ordinated by the Home Affairs Department (HAD).
The delegation of DB chairmen and HAD officials were warmly received by the Secretary for Public Administration, Education and Youth Affairs of the Government of Macau, Mr Jorge Rangel.
It also paid a courtesy call on the Macau Municipal Council.
"This is indeed a historic trip," said the Director of Home Affairs, Mrs Shelley Lau, who led the delegation.
"Hong Kong and Macau shared so much in common and a lot to learn from one another in terms of district administration and how to improve our services to the community."
