Hu said the central government is willing to work with the Hong Kong people from all walks of life to draw up the "precious experiences" in carrying out the "one country, two systems" policy over the past 15 years for further development.

Among Hu's entourage who arrived aboard the same plane included State Councilor Liu Yandong; Ling Jihua, member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and director of the General Office of CPC Central Committee; Wang Huning, member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and director of the Policy Research Office of the CPC Central Committee; and Wang Guangya, director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, China 's cabinet.

A series of activities will be staged during the next few days to mark the anniversary, including a flag-raising ceremony, artistic performances, a fireworks display, carnivals, and parachute jumping performance by the People's Liberation Army 81 Parachute Brigade.
