Hong Kong Maritime Week: HK is a key international shipping centre

Hong Kong Maritime Week: HK is a key international shipping centre
FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin

The opening ceremony of Hong Kong Maritime Week 2022 (HKMW 2022), a major annual event of the maritime and port industries in Hong Kong, was held on November 21, bringing together industry leaders, government officials and scholars in both physical and online mode.

The week-long HKMW 2022, organised by the Hong Kong Maritime and Port Board (HKMPB) from November 20 to 26, promotes to the globe Hong Kong as a preferred base for maritime business through a series of activities. The event also raises the community’s awareness of the economic contributions of Hong Kong’s maritime and port industries.

The Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, said in a pre-recorded speech at the opening ceremony, “The National 14th Five-Year Plan champions Hong Kong’s status as an international shipping centre. That includes the development of high-value-added maritime services for better integration into our country’s overall progress and, more specifically, Hong Kong’s place in the development of a world-class port cluster. In my Policy Address last month, I stated that we will fully capitalise on our position as a high-value-added maritime services centre and an important transshipment hub in the Asia-Pacific region.”

Officiating at the opening ceremony, the Chairman of the HKMPB and the Secretary for Transport and Logistics, Mr Lam Sai-hung, said, “It is of the utmost importance to keep the maritime cluster vibrant. The Government will continue to take proactive measures to fuel the development of the maritime industry.”

Some examples include implementing tax concessions for shipping enterprises, the smart port initiative, and new schemes for maritime manpower development. At the same time, we will always take advantage of community efforts to tell our good stories and showcase Hong Kong’s unique strengths. There is no better opportunity to do so than the HKMW.

…Mr Lam Sai-hung added.

HKMW is in its sixth edition this year. Co-organisers of the event are the Hong Kong Shipowners Association and the Hong Kong Maritime Museum, together with the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and Invest Hong Kong as partners. For more details of HKMW 2022, please visit www.hkmw.hk
