China’s first lady Peng Liyuan answers greeting card, tells Hong Kong kindergarten children to ‘write a better future’ for city
She reminisces about her school visit last year when she was in town with President Xi Jinping to mark city’s 20th handover anniversary
China’s first lady Peng Liyuan has written to three Hong Kong children at a kindergarten in the city’s upscale Kowloon Tong neighbourhood, telling them to “draw the most beautiful paintings” of their life, and “write a better future for Hong Kong” when they grow up.
The printed message from Peng came after the trio from Yau Yat Chuen School sent her a greeting card which showed a drawing of her surrounded by flowers and two children on the cover.
They also wrote in the card: “Auntie Peng, thank you and wishing you health and a happy life”.
In the letter to the three children, dated July 15, Peng wrote that she had received the card they made.
“The drawings and the writings were really good, I like them a lot, thank you!” she wrote.
