After completing the study programme, Vice President of the NAG Mr Gong Weibin, attended and delivered a speech at the closing ceremony.

     In the afternoon, Mrs Yeung and the Permanent Secretaries and Heads of Departments visited the 1954 Constitution Archives Exhibition Hall in Hangzhou. It is the place where the 1954 Constitution, the first Constitution of the People's Republic of China, was drafted.

     She said the Constitution is the fundamental law of the state. Civil servants of the HKSAR must have a grasp of the Constitution of the country and accurately understand and safeguard the constitutional order established under the Constitution and the Basic Law. The senior civil servants should set themselves as good examples in this regard.

     The delegation will obtain a deeper understanding of the practical experience of grassroots governance and common prosperity in Zhejiang Province tomorrow (June 28).
