He underscored how these principles contribute to global peace and development, highlighting Macao’s unique role in bridging cultures and fostering international cooperation.
“The success of ‘One Country, Two Systems’ in Macao showcases a model of peaceful coexistence and mutual prosperity,” President Xi stated. “These values resonate beyond our borders and offer valuable insights for nations around the globe.”
