Chief Executive John Lee announced on Sunday that he will wear a lapel pin representing Hong Kong's first five-year plan as he delivers the city's blueprint and Policy Address on Wednesday. In a post on his social media, Lee revealed that his team would also adorn green ties and scarves, all of which were crafted by a collective at the Technological and Higher Education Institute.
The blue lapel pin features the phrase "one five," signifying Hong Kong's initial five-year plan. The design is inspired by the concept of two intersecting squares, symbolizing the harmonious integration of resources and diverse talents from across society. This convergence aims to intensify high-quality development, enhance economic strength and competitiveness, and elevate Hong Kong's international standing.
Lee elaborated that the ties and scarves' patterns were inspired by the technological advancements in the Northern Metropolis, signifying their role in pioneering a new era of innovation and technology. Additionally, the interwoven design on the tie embodies the interconnectedness and synergy among talent, education, and various industries.
