What is one of the powers of the Chief Executive in Hong Kong?

The power of the Chief Executive to lead the government of the Region is a fundamental aspect of governance in Hong Kong as outlined in the Basic Law. This role includes the responsibility to implement laws, develop policies, and manage the various government departments. The Chief Executive serves as the head of the government, ensuring that the administrative functions operate effectively to uphold the interests of Hong Kong and maintain the rule of law.

In contrast, organizing protests falls outside the defined powers of the Chief Executive. The role is primarily about governance and administration, rather than facilitating or promoting social movements. Oversight of the military is not a responsibility assigned to the Chief Executive in Hong Kong, as the military is under the jurisdiction of the Central Government of China. Conducting international relations is also not typically within the scope of the Chief Executive’s powers, as external affairs are largely handled by the Central Government. Thus, the Chief Executive's primary directive to lead and manage the local government is the cornerstone of their authority and responsibilities.
