Within this article, it talks about Hong Kong’s newly elected Chief of Executive, Leung Chunying. He was a former cabinet member when he was on election and received 689 votes out of the 1,193 ballots that were cast to elect the new Chief of Executive for Hong Kong. He is Pro-Beijing and has rumored to be part of the Communist party but he steadily defies this. After he was elected, he gave a speech that pretty much says that the freedoms and rights that people in Hong Kong enjoy today will be preserved. This really intrigued me because I have always wondered what kind of government Hong Kong had. Cant wait to go to Hong Kong!
