Public in HK gets details of legal changes

Electoral improvements crucial to stability, attraction of political talent

Hong Kong government officials and political heavyweights recently explained the city's new law and recent policy changes on different platforms to help to make sure the local and international communities better comprehend them.

Since late April, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor has hosted a 40-episode talk show, Get to Know the Election Committee Subsectors, to explain the ongoing electoral reform. The show airs on broadcaster RTHK and the internet.

Twelve guests have been invited to discuss how the electoral improvements would promote Hong Kong's development, including lawmakers, community groups' leaders, members of the legal, financial and business sectors and a youth representative.
