HK hosts intl communication forum on fairness, safety
HONG KONG -- The second International Communication Forum was held here on Wednesday under the theme of "Towards a fairer, safer world."
Jointly organized by Friday Culture Ltd. and the Hong Kong Coalition, the forum gathered international leaders and scholars. It included two panel discussions, entitled "Achieving fairness in a polarized world" and "Safety, from individual to global perspectives," respectively.
Hong Kong is an open, safe, vibrant and business-friendly metropolis, and the "one country, two systems" principle ensures that Hong Kong has the strong support of the country while staying connected to the rest of the world, said John Lee, chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, when delivering a keynote speech at the forum.
A fair and safe world needs more communication and dialogue, and today's forum has successfully taken one step closer to that goal, said Vice Secretary-General of the Hong Kong Coalition Kennedy Wong.
