Visiting British Prime Minister Tony Blair said Wednesday in Hong Kong that maintaining stability should be the top priority for Hong Kong, and that Britain is concerned about the stability of the city.
Blair made the remarks at a luncheon held for him by the British Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong.
He expressed confidence that Hong Kong would surely overcome the difficulties with its resilience and well established financial, legal systems and infrastructure, adding Hong Kong is one of the world's best economic and trade centers.
The British prime minister stressed that "one country, two systems" is a unique practice and the principle is not the cause for the recent problems.
He said Britain is ready to play a bigger role in helping Hong Kong to revive its economy.
