Ho won the election with 296 votes in favor and three abstentions from a total of 299 members of the 300-strong Election Committee, who registered to cast votes Sunday morning.

The election is the first of its kind that proceeded under the newly-enacted Macao Chief Executive Election Law since Macao's return to China in 1999.

In a brief speech after his victory in the election, Ho said he would fulfill his election platform, stick to the practice of "one country, two systems" and "Macao people governing Macao" in accordance with the Basic Law, and make efforts to comprehensively improve the living standard of Macao people.

Under the election law, the result of the ballot still needs to be reviewed by a special panel under the Electoral Affairs Committee and the Court of Final Appeal in the Macao SAR.

Ho will need the appointment by the central government to become the second chief executive of the Macao SAR, according to the Basic Law. Ho's first five-year term will expire on Dec. 19.

Ho obtained endorsement from a total of 297 members of the 300- strong Election Committee, or 99 percent of the votes for his candidature nomination earlier in July to become the sole candidate in the election.

Ho garnered 81.9 percent of the votes cast by a 199-member Selection Committee in May 1999 to become the first chief executive ever elected by Macao people.

In preparing for the making of the First Government of the Macao SAR, the selection of the chief executive was held seven months before the Macao SAR was founded in December 1999, which marked the end of Portugal's 400-year-long colonial rule over Macao.

Ho enjoys a popularity for his clear-cut and effective strategy leading to Macao's smooth political transition and prominent economic recovery. Under his leadership, Macao's economy has sustained a growth for four years in a row and realized the fastest growth in history at 15.6 percent last year.
