HKETO Jakarta launches “Marvels in Hong Kong: 25 Years and Beyond” roving exhibition in Manila

The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, Jakarta (HKETO Jakarta) launched the “Marvels in Hong Kong: 25 Years and Beyond” roving exhibition in Manila, the Philippines, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR).

Co-organised by HKETO Jakarta with the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Development Office and the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), the exhibition aims to underscore the remarkable achievements of the HKSAR over the past 25 years, as well as to highlight Hong Kong’s unlimited opportunities under the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) and its appeal in such areas as tourism and culture.

In his online address, the Commissioner for the Development of the GBA, Mr. Tommy Yuen, pointed out that the GBA is the most open and economically vibrant region of China, with enormous growth potential and opportunities. The HKSAR Government has been working closely with Mainland and Macao counterparts to develop and implement policy innovation and breakthrough to facilitate the smooth flow of people, goods, capital and information within the GBA. Hong Kong will continue to make best use of the advantages of “one country, two systems”, its highly market-oriented business environment underpinned by the rule of law, and its world-class professional services as well as infrastructure connectivity to help our friends from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations participate in and benefit from the GBA development.

Also speaking at the event, the Regional Director of Southeast Asia of the HKTB, Mr Raymond Chan, stated that the HKTB is excited to collaborate with HKETO Jakarta to showcase the diverse neighbourhoods in Hong Kong, such as West Kowloon Cultural District, Sham Shui Po and Central, at this exhibition to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the HKSAR.

The Philippines chapter of the “Marvels in Hong Kong: 25 Years and Beyond” roving exhibition will run at Ayala Malls Manila Bay, a major shopping center in Manila, from today until October 16, during which interactive sessions will be arranged to give out souvenirs to visitors.

HKETO Jakarta has staged this exhibition in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Jakarta, Indonesia, over the past two months to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the HKSAR with local communities.
