Liaison office of central gov’t in Macao SAR hails chief executive election as “pioneering, emblematic”

MACAO, Oct. 13 (Xinhua) — The Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao Special Administrative Region (SAR) on Sunday hailed the election of the sixth-term chief executive of the Macao SAR as “pioneering and emblematic.”
Congratulating Sam Hou Fai, the newly elected chief executive designate of the Macao SAR, an official of the office said the election, the first of its kind taking place after the amendments to the Chief Executive Election Law took effect at the beginning of this year, effectively implemented the principle of “patriots administering Macao.” ■
