"A Hong Kong resident has been selected as a payload expert for the national manned space program, and has the opportunity to become an astronaut to go to space to participate in scientific research and contribute to the national space program. This will go down in history for the HKSAR and Hong Kong people. I sincerely thank the central government for consistent support for Hong Kong and including Hong Kong candidates in the selection."
