HONG KONG  -- "Light the Passion, Share the Dream". The Olympic torch relay slogan was fully put into practice here on Friday as the historic run attracted a wide range of participation.

The passion in the first relay in Chinese territory was drastically lit up. Cheers could be heard all through the city as large crowds lined the route despite spells of drizzle. Flags, banners, placards of good will were far and near.

According to the statistics released from police source, over one million people took part in the relay in a variety of ways.

"Welcome, the Sacred Flame," "Our Hearts with the Beijing Olympics," and "Go China," read placards.

"Today, the Olympic torch relay resumes on Chinese soil after its global journey across five continents. It is a great and solemn honor for Hong Kong, Asia's world city, to be the first city in China to welcome back the Olympic flame on behalf of our proud nation," said Donald Tsang, chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, before he handed the first torch to Hong Kong's first Olympic gold medalist Lee Lai-shan.

"As the Olympic torch is relayed through Hong Kong - and as it travels across the vast expanse of our country in the months ahead - I truly hope that it will continue to blaze a trail of unity and peace, for all people, of all nations. The goal of 'One World. One Dream' is there for us to achieve," he said.

One hundred and twenty torchbearers covered a 26-km route, passing by such landmarks as Tsing Ma Bridge, Sha Tin racecourse and the Avenue of Stars before the torch is ferried across the Victoria Harbor onto the Hong Kong Island.

Among the 120 torchbearers, there are top athletes, celebrities, officials, business tycoons, students and teachers.

Wecker, horse, sightseeing ship and dragon boat are used to carry the Olympic flame.

Lee, a former world champion and Olympic champion windsurfer, launched the relay from the Hong Kong Cultural Center at 10:28 a.m. local time.
