Ms Ng, a student from the Bachelor of Social Science Public Administration degree programme, stated that the content of the exhibition is fascinating, with thorough presentation from national history to modern development of Macao, which explained the significance and stability of “one country, two systems” as a necessary policy. Ms Chin, a student from the Bachelor of Management degree programme, appreciated the guidance of vivid illustration content and the easy-to-understand presentation from the docent, which led her to review the historical cultural heritage of the motherland. She would like to express her gratitude towards the motherland in positioning Macao as a “One Centre, One Platform and One Base”, which creates opportunities for the young generation in stepping onto the International Stage with economic diversification. While Mr Chen, who is a doctoral programme student of Public Policy, said that through the content displayed at the base, he has a in-depth understanding of culture and history of the motherland; he appreciates that with the substantial support from China, Macao is rapidly being developed as cosmopolitan city. He also wishes the motherland and Macao maintain long-term prosperity and stability.
