The country, China, People’s Republic of China. will send personnel to Hong Kong in early October to learn more about the candidates. Expect good news to be announced within this year.


After the SAR government selects candidates and recommends them to the country, more than one candidate from Hong Kong enters the final selection stage after primary and secondary elections. The candidates include both men and women. “I think we have achieved good results.
