Secretary for Culture, Sports & Tourism Kevin Yeung made a presentation on a bid to host the 2026 Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) General Assembly in Hong Kong at a meeting in Cascais, Portugal, yesterday.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Also as part of his Portugal itinerary yesterday, Mr Yeung\u00a0exchanged views with\u00a0various members of\u00a0the\u00a0ANOC Executive Council, together with\u00a0President of the\u00a0Sports Federation & Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China\u00a0(SF&OC) Timothy Fok in the morning.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mr Yeung made the presentation on the bid to host the 2026 ANOC General Assembly in Hong Kong while attending the ANOC Executive Council meeting alongside a delegation from the SF&OC in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

He illustrated that Hong Kong is the ideal place for hosting international events given its strengths and advantages.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mr Yeung highlighted that the city has a fair and mature legal system thanks to the successful implementation of the “one country, two systems” principle since the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, enabling the city to maintain its social stability.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Apart from pointing out that Hong Kong is also an events capital of Asia and the world’s meeting place, he emphasised that as an international city, Hong Kong is widely connected with the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mr Yeung added that Hong Kong has been actively advancing the development of sports in the community, supporting elite sports, promoting Hong Kong as a centre for major international sports events, enhancing sports professionalism and developing sports as an industry.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In recent years, Hong Kong athletes have achieved impressive results in major international games, Mr Yeung noted. He also shared with those at the meeting the imminent commissioning of the Kai Tak Sports Park in the first quarter of 2025, making it the largest sports infrastructure project in Hong Kong’s history.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Additionally, Mr Yeung attended a reception hosted by the city of Cascais, during which he exchanged views with Sports & International Affairs City Councillor Francisco Kreye and other leading figures in the world of sports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
