First, we can best secure our future tomorrow by our
success today. That is true of our economy and true of our
Government. The strongest safeguard for our governing
institutions will be the effectiveness, vigour and good sense
with which they operate. All of us who participate in the
running of Hong Kong have serious work to do. I look
forward to co-operating with those who share my aim to do
everything we can to improve and strengthen the Government of
Hong Kong in the unique circumstances in which history has
placed us. Those circumstances put a premium on a spirit of
mature co-operation in the business of government not sterile
partisanship.
