Macao, a sparking pearl in the coast of China, catches the world's attention for her charm, her experiences of various changes and her bright achievements, and moreover, for the unusual date of December 20, 1999.
Macao has been the territory of China ever since the ancient times. The Chinese people have been living and working there for generations.
Early in the 80s, Mr. Deng Xiaoping, one of the great figures of the century, put forward the bold concept of "One Country, Two Systems". On July 1, 1997, the People's Republic of China resumed her sovereignty over Hong Kong. This year, Macao will completely get rid of the foreign regime and return to motherland. This is another great historical event for the Chinese people. It symbolizes another big step for the Chinese people on their way towards the great goal of the country's reunification. Macao's future is sure to be even brighter.
