Macao’s first chief lauds support from motherland

Macao will always link its own destiny with that of the motherland and integrate itself into the overall development of the country for a better future, Ho Hau-wah, the first chief executive of the Macao Special Administrative Region, said recently.

Macao had achieved remarkable success in the past two decades because it had grasped the opportunities given by the central government and the people had faith in the nation, said Ho, who served as chief executive from 1999 to 2009.
