He said that Hong Kong is striving to set up a platform for international cultural exchanges and maintains frequent cultural exchanges with Singapore.

“This year for the first time, the Culture, Sports & Tourism Bureau launched ‘Art March’ to promote multiple mega arts and cultural events organised, funded or supported by the Government, making use of our blend of the East-West cultures and extensive international network to showcase the unique charm and diverse characteristics of Chinese culture in Hong Kong.”
