Yu, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), said the central government will continue to support the governments of the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions in exercising power according to the law, and in developing the two regions.

He stressed that the mainland will expand exchanges and cooperation in an all-round way with the regions.

Efforts will also be made to enhance the political, economic, cultural and social foundations for the peaceful development of relations across the Taiwan Strait, according to Yu.

Furthermore, the senior political advisor promised overseas Chinese that their development in countries in which they take residence will always be a concern of their motherland, and their rights and interests will be protected.

Utmost efforts will be made to unite Chinese both at home and abroad to achieve the Chinese dream, Yu said.

More than 2,800 representatives from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese communities attended the reception.
