Q2 Many of the city's young people were born after the city's return to the motherland. How do you think this anniversary resonates with the young generation? What messages would you like to convey to them on this historic occasion?

Wu Zhiliang: Compared with their parents, Macao's emerging generation clearly has more opportunities to develop themselves, provided they follow the correct path. To the younger ones and those who are not so old, I would say: I hope you can maintain the enthusiasm and spirit of exploration in history and culture throughout your daily lives. Attaining knowledge through small details always brings surprising results.

Duarte Alves: To the younger generation, my message is twofold. First, embrace integration. As part of the country, Macao's success is closely tied to the opportunities within the GBA and the broader national framework. By engaging with the innovation, industries and talent in the region, young people can contribute to Macao's growth while forging their own paths. Second, treasure Macao's unique cultural heritage. This blend of Chinese and Portuguese influences is what sets Macao apart and makes it such a vital part of the national story. By celebrating and sharing this identity, the younger generation can help the city play a crucial role in telling China's story to the world.

Zhu Haisheng: I hope that Macao's younger generation will actively integrate into the Cooperation Zone in Hengqin and the GBA, seizing the opportunities within the national development goals. Regardless of the industries they are in, the policy support provided by the nation for the Cooperation Zone and the GBA is a valuable platform for them to engage in deeper exchanges and cooperation with various industries across the mainland. Through such interaction, Macao's youth can not only broaden their horizons but also contribute to their personal career development and the long-term prosperity of Macao.
