July 1 this year marks the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to China. Gregory So Kam-Leung, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, is also celebrating his two decades of returning from Canada to serve in Hong Kong. In the past 20 years, he transferred himself from a professional lawyer to a financial chief in the government of the Chinese special administrative region.
So took office at a time when frictions between the mainlanders and local people in Hong Kong were constantly reported, and a four-million-drop in the number of tourists from the mainland was witnessed.
In an exclusive interview with CGTN's The Point with Liu Xin (@thepointwithlx), So discussed why that is no longer an issue and how he looks into Hong Kong's future.
