To mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China together, Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited (SHKP) and the Sun Hung Kai Properties Charitable Fund are supporting a series of activities designed to spread joy and foster national pride. These initiatives encompass culture, national history, youth science education, community events and public engagement.

SHKP Chairman and Managing Director Raymond Kwok said: “The 75th anniversary of the founding of the country is a significant milestone. In keeping with our long-standing belief in Building Homes with Heart, SHKP is partnering with various sectors to present special events. These celebrations will provide opportunities for people of all ages to learn about our country’s achievements while driving local consumption and showcasing Hong Kong’s unique charm – supported by the motherland and connected to the global community.”

The Group is organizing or sponsoring six major celebration events:

1. From 26 September to 31 October, International Commerce Centre (ICC), the tallest building in Hong Kong, will feature a National Day light show with a celebratory slogan on its façade.
2. The Group is sponsoring the “Meng Xi” InnoTech Promotional Programme, initiated by the Federation of New Territories Youth, by offering free venue space for its exhibition at eight high-traffic shopping malls¹ across the city. The exhibition showcases various treasures reflecting the country’s cutting-edge technologies, including meteorites provided by the China National Space Administration and plant seeds cultivated in space by astronauts in the China Manned Space Programme. By highlighting these remarkable achievements in aerospace technology, SHKP aims to inspire the younger generation’s interest in science, contributing to the development of Hong Kong as an international hub for high-calibre talent, and fostering a sense of national identity and pride.
3. The Group is co-organizing a photo exhibition hosted by the China News Services Hong Kong Bureau and the Hong Kong Federation of Journalists. Running from 24 to 26 October on the sky100 Hong Kong Observation Deck, the exhibition features valuable historical news photographs on the history and achievements of our country.
4. The Group is supporting community events organized by the Sham Shui Po Residents Association and co-organized by the Sham Shui Po District Office. These events include outdoor photo-friendly installations available from 14 September to 15 October, as well as a weekend market held earlier. These initiatives help bring vibrancy to the Cheung Sha Wan Promenade, which is adjacent to TOWNPLACE WEST KOWLOON and SOHO West, and exemplify the successful collaboration between the government, business sector and community.
