HKETO Berlin celebrates Spring Festival with Hong Kong people in Berlin and Vienna (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
About 170 Hong Kong residents attended the gatherings, including people who are living, working or studying in Berlin or Vienna, as well as young people who are on the working holiday schemes agreed between Hong Kong and Germany and Austria.
At the gatherings, the Director of HKETO Berlin, Ms Betty Ho, talked about the latest developments in Hong Kong, especially the impending completion of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the Express Rail Link (Hong Kong Section), which she noted would greatly enhance Hong Kong's connectivity with the Mainland of China. She also encouraged the younger participants to make good use of their stay in Europe to widen their exposure and develop an international perspective, but with the many opportunities coming up in Hong Kong, Ms Ho said she looked forward to welcoming them back home in their future pursuit of careers and aspirations. To close her speech, Ms Ho wished everyone a happy and prosperous Year of the Dog.
