今年七月一日具有特殊意義，習(xí)主席視察香港滿一周年，香港回歸祖國(guó)二十六周年，同時(shí)也是新一屆特區(qū)政府上任一周年。過去的一年是香港戰(zhàn)勝疫情、全面復(fù)常一年，也是由治及興開新篇的一年，特區(qū)政府治理能力得到強(qiáng)化，香港高質(zhì)量發(fā)展生機(jī)勃勃，共建大灣區(qū)提速，國(guó)家安全防線不斷強(qiáng)化，市民的幸福感、獲得感有所提升。正如行政長(zhǎng)官李家超所指出，當(dāng)前香港千帆并舉，社會(huì)充滿希望、團(tuán)結(jié)、活力。

　　七一臨近，李家超接受大公報(bào)記者專訪，檢視過去一年的工作。他表示，新一屆特區(qū)政府按照習(xí)主席去年七月一日出席香港回歸二十五周年慶典發(fā)表的重要講話，制定施政藍(lán)圖，全力落實(shí)“四個(gè)必須”和“四點(diǎn)希望”，香港社會(huì)出現(xiàn)了令人鼓舞的新風(fēng)貌、新氣象。

　　首先體現(xiàn)在治理體系和機(jī)制的建設(shè)上。特區(qū)政府施政“以結(jié)果為目標(biāo)”，團(tuán)隊(duì)“提質(zhì)、提量、提效”，全力為民辦實(shí)事；通過前廳交流會(huì)、特首答問大會(huì)，行政立法密切合作，議政新風(fēng)令人耳目一新；特區(qū)政府成立“融入國(guó)家發(fā)展大局督導(dǎo)組”，提升了香港融入國(guó)家發(fā)展大局、共建大灣區(qū)的主動(dòng)性、積極性。特區(qū)政府還與廣東省及深圳市政府成立專班，按不同議題溝通協(xié)作，跨境合作結(jié)出纍纍碩果。

　　特區(qū)政府在推動(dòng)高質(zhì)量發(fā)展方面，同樣令人眼前一亮。在新一份施政報(bào)告中，李家超推出搶企業(yè)、搶人才大計(jì)，短短數(shù)月就收到效果，為香港引入約2000名來自不同地方的尖端科研人才，大學(xué)的招攬人才計(jì)劃也吸引全球約400名精英加盟?？萍紙@在一年內(nèi)有320家企業(yè)進(jìn)駐，按年增加三成，其中不乏獨(dú)角獸企業(yè)。特區(qū)政府還推出創(chuàng)科發(fā)展藍(lán)圖，在為科學(xué)園和數(shù)碼港兩大科研支柱進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)容的基礎(chǔ)上，推出新田科技城規(guī)劃，對(duì)重點(diǎn)企業(yè)和人才落戶香港更有吸引力。特區(qū)政府還大手筆成立100億元的“產(chǎn)學(xué)研1＋計(jì)劃”，資助科研成果落地，進(jìn)而商品化。這些大膽進(jìn)取具前瞻性的舉措，為香港高質(zhì)量發(fā)展提供更大的動(dòng)能。

　　在改善民生方面，特區(qū)政府勇于破難而進(jìn)。如果說，通過推動(dòng)北部都會(huì)區(qū)和東大嶼填海工程兩大計(jì)劃，困擾香港多年的“地從何來”基本上有了答案，那么特區(qū)政府推動(dòng)“簡(jiǎn)約公屋”計(jì)劃，則可短期見效，因此受到基層市民的歡迎。在交通、電力等公共設(shè)施加價(jià)方面，特區(qū)政府堅(jiān)持以民為本，盡量減輕市民的負(fù)擔(dān)；在提振經(jīng)濟(jì)等方面，特區(qū)政府也不斷推出新猷，特別是再度推出電子消費(fèi)券，既刺激消費(fèi)、振興市道，也促進(jìn)了智慧城市的發(fā)展。

　　過去一年是不平凡的一年，特區(qū)政府團(tuán)結(jié)香港社會(huì)各界克服重重困難，在各方面取得了可喜的成績(jī)，市民有目共睹。同時(shí)也要看到，香港社會(huì)多年來積存下來的深層次矛盾和問題依然嚴(yán)峻，各種痛點(diǎn)、難點(diǎn)問題有待進(jìn)一步化解，既得利益的藩籬需要進(jìn)一步打破，香港融入國(guó)家發(fā)展大局需要進(jìn)一步加快，香港社會(huì)維護(hù)國(guó)家安全意識(shí)需要進(jìn)一步加強(qiáng)，市民對(duì)特區(qū)政府施政水平也有了更高的期待，由治及興，任重道遠(yuǎn)。

　　展望未來，特區(qū)政府要按照習(xí)主席提出的四點(diǎn)希望，繼續(xù)提高治理水平，不斷增強(qiáng)發(fā)展動(dòng)能，切實(shí)排解民生憂難，共同維護(hù)和諧穩(wěn)定，開創(chuàng)發(fā)展新局面，為“一國(guó)兩制”實(shí)踐行穩(wěn)致遠(yuǎn)作出新貢獻(xiàn)。

A new chapter of advancing to prosperity opens in the best time of the year

The 1st of July of this year has special significance. It marks the first anniversary of President Xi Jinping's inspection visit to Hong Kong, the 26th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the Motherland, and the first anniversary of the new-term SAR Government taking office. The past year is a year that has witnessed Hong Kong's success in fighting against the epidemic and resuming normal life, and also a year that has ushered in a new chapter of advancing to prosperity. In the past year, the SAR Government has enhanced its governance capability, high-quality development in Hong Kong has become full of vigour, joint development of the Greater Bay Area has sped up, a line of defence for national security has been strengthened unceasingly, and citizens' sense of happiness and sense of gain have been heightened to some degree. As Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu pointed out, in today's Hong Kong, "a thousand boats are in full sail" and whole society is full of hope, solidarity and vitality.

With the 1st of July approaching, John Lee gave Ta Kung Pao an exclusive interview about the government work in the past year. He said that the new-term government has followed President Xi's important speech at the meeting celebrating the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the Motherland on the 1st of July of last year and drawn its governance blueprint to do its best to put into practice the "four musts" and "four hopes", and Hong Kong society has taken on a new look amid a new atmosphere.

Firstly, this is seen in the building of the governance system and mechanisms. The SAR Government's governance takes a result-oriented approach and its team enhances "quality, quantity and efficiency" and does its best to deliver solid outcomes when dealing with affairs concerning the public. Through Ante Chamber Exchange Sessions and the CE's Question and Answer Sessions, the executive authorities and legislature cooperate closely, and such a new style of participation in policy discussion is quite refreshing. The SAR Government has set up a Steering Group on Integration into National Development, heightening Hong Kong's initiative and enthusiasm in integrating itself into the overall development of our country and joint development of the Greater Bay Area. The SAR Government has also set up special task forces with Guangdong Provincial and Shenzhen Municipal Governments to deal with mutual communication and cooperation on various issues, and cross-boundary cooperation become very fruitful.

With regard to pushing forward high-quality development, the SAR Government's work is also very eye-catching. In his latest Policy Address, John Lee unveils an ambitious plan of "Competing for Enterprises and Talents".　　It has achieved good results in a short time of several months, luring about 2,000 talented researchers in cutting edge science and technology from various places. Universities' talent recruitment programmes have also attracted 400 elites globally. Within a year, 320 enterprises have moved in Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks (HKSTP), up 30 percent from a year before, and of which quite many are unicorns. The SAR Government has also unveiled a development blueprint for innovation and technology, on the basis of expanding the two pillars for scientific and technological researches – the Hong Kong Science Park and Cyberport, a San Tin Technopole development project is launched, making the SAR even more attractive to major enterprises and talents. The SAR Government will also earmark $10 billion to launch a "Research, Academic and Industry Sectors One?plus Scheme" to provide funding at first for the transformation and realisation of research and development (R&D) outcomes and then for the commercialisation of R&D outcomes. Such boldly aggressive and forward-looking measures provide greater impetus for Hong Kong's high-quality development.

With regard to improving people's livelihood, the SAR Government grasps the nettle and makes progresses. If the problem "where to find land" that has been bothering Hong Kong for so many years is primarily answered by pushing forward the two big projects of Northern Metropolis and East Lantau Metropolis, then the Light Public Housing (LPH) scheme launched by the SAR Government could produce the desired result in the short run, hence is welcomed by the grassroots citizens. As regards fee increases of public utilities such as transport and electricity, the SAR Government upholds the people-oriented principle to minimise citizens' financial burden. On boosting the economy, the SAR Government also keeps launching new initiatives. In particular, the Consumption Voucher Scheme is carried forward to stimulate consumption and revitalise the economy, which also helps to promote Hong Kong's Smart City development.　　

The past year is an extraordinary one. The SAR Government has united all social sectors in Hong Kong to overcome difficulties one after another and achieve encouraging successes in various aspects, which are obvious for everyone to see. At the same time, it must be noted that deep-rooted contradictions and problems accumulated over past years in Hong Kong society are still very tough. Various painful and difficult problems remain to be further eased, barriers of vested interests to be further brought down, the pace of Hong Kong's integration into the overall national development must be further quickened, and Hong Kong society's awareness to safeguard national security must be further enhanced. Citizens also have higher expectation for the SAR Government's governance. Advancing to prosperity is an arduous task and the road ahead is long.

Looking forward to the future, the SAR Government must follow the "four hopes" put forward by President Xi to continue improving its governance, keep strengthening the driving forces for development, ease problems troubling people's livelihood in a down-to-earth way, jointly safeguard harmony and stability and break new ground for development, so as to make new contributions to the steadfast and successful implementation of the "one country two systems" principle.
