Garrison guarantees city's security and goodwill


Diligence and duty
Reviewing the 20 years of its existence in Macao, the PLA garrison said its troops have honored their mission and diligently fulfilled their duties.
"Along with the successful implementation of the principle of 'one country, two systems', the garrison is one of the foundations of stability and prosperity in Macao, supporting the continuation of 'one country, two systems'. Our soldiers have proved that they deserve the trust given by the motherland and the people," the garrison said in a statement.
"During the past two decades, we have witnessed our troops and the Macao people move together toward the same goal of realizing the great national rejuvenation, and, at the same time, develop a deep-rooted, harmonious bond," the statement added.
Edmund Ho Hau-wah, a vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the first chief executive of the Macao SAR, said the PLA Macao Garrison is a pillar to safeguard the principle of 'one country, two systems', and it guarantees Macao's prosperity and stability.
"We feel privileged and proud that we have these brave and lovely soldiers as our guardians," he said.
