I am the first female chief executive of Hong Kong.

I firmly believe that the wider community supports achieving the goal of universal suffrage for 2017 according to law. I also believe most political parties do not want to see a failure to attain the goal.

We should widen our economic base and encourage businesses to move up the value chain and increase job diversity.

You cannot appreciate the sense of satisfaction that I get from my job.

My husband was working as principal of an urban transformation high school - the kind of public charter school determined to do whatever it takes to give its mostly minority, low-income student body the education they need and deserve to be successful in life.

Education is a vacine for violence.

What I would like to see is sufficiently good education and health services being delivered to Aboriginal people so that they are prepared and ready to leave and join the economic mainstream if that's their choice.

I have an education, I went to college, you know?
