The eighth Legislative Council election of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was held lawfully, safely, smoothly, and successfully yesterday (December 7). Voter turnout across all three constituencies—the Election Committee constituency, functional constituencies, and geographical constituencies—exceeded that of the previous election, fully demonstrating broad participation by Hong Kong society and strong endorsement of the new electoral system. This reflects Hong Kong’s robust vitality and its firm resolve to move forward in unity. The Hong Kong Coalition extends its warmest congratulations!
This election represents a crucial step in fully implementing the principle of “patriots administering Hong Kong” and consolidating and advancing high-quality democracy tailored to Hong Kong’s realities. It highlights the institutional strengths of “One Country, Two Systems” and underscores the progressiveness and superiority of Hong Kong’s new electoral framework. Following various challenges, the success of this election holds significant importance for achieving sound governance and promoting long-term prosperity and stability in Hong Kong.
The Coalition warmly congratulates all newly elected legislators! We firmly believe that the incoming Legislative Council will steadfastly uphold its original commitment to loving both the country and Hong Kong and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests. We are confident that the new legislators will faithfully perform their duties in accordance with the law, proactively address public concerns, properly manage post-fire recovery efforts following the Hong Fuk Estate fire incident, and unite all sectors of society to focus collective energy on boosting economic growth and improving people's livelihoods. Seizing the major opportunities presented by China’s upcoming “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan,” they will actively facilitate Hong Kong’s deeper integration into and contribution to the nation’s overall development strategy, offering valuable recommendations for Hong Kong’s long-term advancement and the well-being of its people, and jointly forging a brighter, more prosperous, and stable future for Hong Kong!
