On the morning of June 29, researchers from the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of Shanghai Municipal People's Government, Jin Weiming and Gong Shuxiang, and Liu Chen from the Municipal Party Committee (of Shanghai Municipal People's Government) visited the university to survey its work in Hong Kong and Macao, focusing on ECUPL's recent and future work progress in Hong Kong and Macao. Lai Jinsheng, the Deputy Director of the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Office, ECUPL, Jiao Jia, the Deputy Secretary of the League Committee, and Zhang Yanting, the executive Deputy Director of student employment center, participated in the survey.
Lai Jinsheng first expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Hong Kong and Macau Office of the Municipal Government for its care and guidance towards the University's work in Hong Kong and Macau. Then, he introduced ECUPL's work on Hong Kong and Macau in detail in terms of inter-school exchanges, faculty exchanges, student training and platform construction. He said that ECUPL’s work (in Hong Kong and Macao) has always been based on the advantages of law, combined with the characteristics of the subject, and served national needs and exchanges between Shanghai and Hong Kong. It has carried out education and scientific research cooperation, and faculty and student exchanges with universities in Hong Kong and Macao and law practice institutions, while also performing student enrollment and training work well. He then gave feedback on the real problems encountered in the school's current exchanges, and put forward some suggestions on how to promote the exchange of young people between Shanghai and Hong Kong, as well as how to provide internships and employment for students from Hong Kong and Macau.
