CHINA-MACAU: PBSC MEMBER ZHANG DEJIANG'S VISIT

The Chairman of the National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee, Zhang Dejiang, said in Macau on May 10, 2017, at the end of a 3-day visit that Macau is the role model when it comes to the "One Country, Two Systems" principle, and its success is down to the territory's education policies. He praised the SAR's education system, saying it has to stay on the right course so the "fine tradition" of "loving the country and loving Macau" can be passed on to the next generation. At the University of Macau, he told about 100 representatives from the education sector they should not let students simply "go with the flow". They need to be nurtured, he said, so they understand what is going on on the mainland. On May 9, Zhang Dejiang also praised Macau for implementing national security legislation, something Hong Kong is yet to achieve. In further remarks seen as being directed towards Hong Kong, he also warned against filibustering and violence in the legislature.
