City leader joins sports minister, Beijing liaison office chief at Hong Kong Velodrome Park to mark 100 days until National Games start

Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu on Saturday also said that all eight host venues for major competitions would finish their final rehearsals in the next few months, with organisers to focus on enhancing security and hospitality, among other areas.

“Hong Kong will give full play to its international and professional advantages to contribute to the country’s efforts in becoming a powerful sports nation through professional teamwork, rigorous event organisation and humanised service details,” he said.

Lee officiated at a ceremony marking 100 days until the launch of the National Games on Saturday.

The city leader was joined by Beijing’s liaison chief in Hong Kong, Zhou Ji, sports minister Rosanna Law Shuk-pui and Yeung Tak-keung, the head of the city’s National Games Coordination Office, at the Hong Kong Velodrome Park.
