Hello and welcome. Senior politicians in hong kong have been celebrating the moment the city returned to chinese rule 22 years ago. Led by chief executive carrie lam and joined by officials from china, they attended a reception a few hours ago. Outside, a flag raising ceremony was held at the harbour front.
