This year's National Day evening, the Hong Kong government set off a beautiful and colorful fireworks display on both sides of Victoria Harbour. Almost, it has been five years of waiting since 2019 marked by social unrest and the Covid-19 pandemic. Thousands of spectators lined up along the Victoria Harbour cheering the return of the National Day fireworks display on 1st October 2023, the 23-minute fireworks display was so beautiful and dazzled both all the native citizens and worldwide tourists.
This year, the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region spent more than 18 million to put fireworks over one of the most prosperous harbors in the world -The Victoria Harbour, making crowds happy to watch the show. Looking up from both sides of the strait below, it looked like multiple colorful fireballs shooting down at the spectators. I watched a TV news report interviewing a young mainland compatriot who came with his family to Hong Kong for the show, he looked like, was very excited.... and he told the news reporter that he liked and was dazzled by the National Day's fireworks display, would visit again in the subsequent years to meet the fireworks display.
By means of celebrating the National Day of 2023, I expect a new start to Hong Kong that can walk along with all the citizens, with the company of "Peace", "Love", "Joy", "Patience", "Kindness", "Goodness", "Faithfulness", "Gentleness" and "Self-control". I hope that all the people can receive the fruit of Holy Spirit as and when given.
Best Regards
