As the Olympic Games wrap up and we look forward to the Paralympic Games, I’ve been reflecting on the extraordinary success of Hong Kong, China athletes. In Vivian Kong, Edgar Cheung, Siobhan Haughey and all our other top athletes we witnessed a masterclass of Hong Kong’s “Can-Do” and “Play-To-Win” spirit. Their success is a timely…

It was an amazing night for Hong Kong when our athlete Vivian Kong won the first gold medal for Hong Kong by defeating her French opponent in the Women’s Epee Final.
