As what was done to Hong Kong in 1997, the State Council of the People's Republic of China, the 22 Provinces (excluding Taiwan), 5 Autonomous Regions, 4 Municipalities (together with the Hong Kong SAR) blessed the inauguration of the Macau SAR. The 33 exquisite presents given to the MSAR manifest their blessings and jot over the return of Macau to China. They represent works of art from various parts of China, some using materials unique to certain areas, others reflecting the creativity of famous local artists. They are masterpieces of excellent artistic creation, abundant in implications and good wishes of the Central Government and other provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities , together with the Hong Kong SAR of the country to the prosperity of Macau. Presently they are shown at the Forum. Upon the completion of the Handover Place, they will be moved there.
