During the meeting with Tung, former and the first chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Hu said that Tung had done a lot of pioneering work to successfully carry out the "one country, two systems" principle inHong Kong. He linked the present good situation in Hong Kong to the foundation work done by Tung while he was chief executive.
Since Tung took up the post of CPPCC vice chairman, he has shown great zeal and given play to his advantages in doing useful jobs for the country, Hu said.
Hu expressed his hope that Tung will continue to show concern for Hong Kong affairs and contribute his wisdom and strength to the development and progress of the country.
Tung said the hard-earned good situation in Hong Kong is closely related to the support of the central government and people of the whole country.
