The two held a meeting at Government House in Hong Kong on Wednesday afternoon and exchanged views on matters of mutual concern.
The AIIB announced on March 23 that Hong Kong would become a new member upon deposit of the first installment of its capital subscription with the bank. Leung extended his gratitude to Jin for his support to Hong Kong’s participation in the AIIB.
Leung said that as the international financial center in Asia, Hong Kong could make good use of its unique advantages under the "one country, two systems" policy, along with its world-class talent pool and extensive experience in handling large-scale projects in contributing to the success of the AIIB.
