Interview with Andrew Heyn, UK British Consul General to Hong Kong and Macau

2020-12-04
In her fourth Policy Address delivered last week, Chief Executive Carrie Lam dedicated a lengthy chapter to upholding “One Country, Two Systems” and stressed the need for constitutional order. She said that to fully implement the concept formulated by former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping, requires strict adherence to the Constitution and the Basic Law. Mrs Lam reiterated that there can be no challenge to rulings by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on implementation of the Basic law.
The Joint Declaration, signed in 1984, set out a set of a range of principles which were to remain unchanged for 50 years after 1997.There are different interpretations of how that has worked out and to get the British point of view I am pleased to welcome Andrew Heyn, who is winding up his role as British Consul General to Hong Kong and Macao this week.

The Pulse

RTHK's English-language current affairs programme that takes "The Pulse" of Hong Kong ... and the world around it.

"The Pulse" is presented by locally and internationally known journalist and writer Steve Vines.

Its focus? The latest events and trends that affect Hong Kong - from the corridors of power and business boardrooms, to the streets and dai pai dongs.

"The Pulse" is politics. What's happening in the Legislative Council and on the streets right now.

"The Pulse" is the media, informing us how well or badly our press and broadcast organisations diagnose and reflect the society around us.

"The Pulse" is insightful, in-depth reports and interviews on current issues - examining those issues in depth, looking behind and beyond the news.

Its focus is on the timely. The Now.

Keep your eye ... and your finger ... on "The Pulse".

If you want to discuss anything you've seen in "The Pulse", or anything in the public eye right now, or just to talk about the show, why not join in the debate on our Facebook page, RTHK's The Pulse.
