The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China; conventional known by the short name Hong Kong Government, is led by the Chief Executive as Head of the Government, who is also the head of the region. The affairs of the Government are decided by secretaries, who are appointed by the Chief Executive and endorsed by the Central People's Government in Beijing. As a special administrative region of the PRC, Hong Kong has a high degree of autonomy, in light of the "One Country, Two Systems" policy. The Hong Kong Government, financially independent from the CPG, oversees the affairs of Hong Kong.
