Secretary for the Environment and Ecology Bureau Xie Zhanhuan said in his speech that this year marks the 77th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army's Long March. Both dates are of special significance. He emphasized that the spirit of our ancestors who were not afraid of difficulties and persevered to the end is worth learning. He said that persistence in environmental protection requires young people to develop environmentally friendly living habits.
Li Wei, deputy editor-in-chief of Ta Kung Pao, discussed the historical origins of Ta Kung Pao and the Long March, recounting historical facts such as "one newspaper determines the outcome" of Hada Pu, reporter Fan Changjiang's objective coverage of the Long March, and the young Red Army's fearlessness of hardships, and looked back at the core of the spirit of the Long March. He encouraged Hong Kong youth to inherit the spirit of the Long March, face the difficulties and choices on the road to growth, draw on the strength of their ancestors, and walk the "Long March Road" belonging to the youth of the new era.
The highlights of the movie "Four Crossings" were screened on site, recreating the historical turning point in which the Red Army corrected its wrong military line, responded flexibly and bravely faced difficulties under extreme disadvantages, and finally broke out of a heavy siege, demonstrating the spirit of its ancestors who firmly believed and were not afraid of powerful enemies. Through the immersive video experience, the citizens and young students at the scene intuitively understood the spirit of the great Long March and cultivated their patriotism and love for Hong Kong.
During the event, there was a section to present certificates of thanks. Li Huiqiong, Chairman of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, said that every generation has its own Long March. Environmental protection and sustainable development require perseverance and leaving green waters and green mountains to the next generation.
