promote the development of charity” in the General Assembly, which was
reverberated promptly in the charity sector and business community, playing an
active role in improving the mechanism of charity relief and attracting more
enterprises to participate in charity. In March this year, through a very
strict political censorship and screening, Hui Ka Yan, as a private
entrepreneur from the Communist Party, was elected into the 12th Standing

pointed out that the representatives of private entrepreneurs are extremely
excellent in politics and their contributions are recognized by the State,
which enables them to be elected. As a member of Standing Committee, Hui Ka Yan
will bear more social responsibilities and make more contributions to the
promotion of social development.

fulfill their responsibilities as a corporate citizen and devote themselves to
the charity.
