Magandang araw po sa aming mga minamahal na kababayan dito sa Hong Kong!

With the change of the seasons come new opportunities, encounters, and experiences. As spring comes into Hong Kong, we are all graced by the gentle flow of the blessings of nature.

One of the landmark events of the season, the Hong Kong Flower Show, has recently passed. I hope everyone was able to partake in the beautiful, colourful, and varied displays of flora from all over the world. The Consulate, along with other delegates from the Philippines, were able to proudly showcase Philippine culture and imagery to the thousands that came to the event.

As Hong Kong completes its transition into the new normal, I wish to take this opportunity to invite all Filipinos to join the Kapangyawan Friendship Festival this 11 June 2023 at Chater Road, Central. 

As part of the Filipino community’s celebration of the 125th Anniversary of Philippine Independence, the event is the first time we will be able to hold large-scale gatherings in public after several years. I am sure the community is eagerly anticipating this chance to celebrate and come together, and I sincerely hope everyone joins in the festivities.

Remember to bring your family, friends, and anyone interested in Philippine culture, history, and traditions. They will not be disappointed.

Furthermore, the Consulate has stepped up its public diplomacy campaigns to better inform our kababayan of recent developments and important advisories regarding our vibrant community. You can join our Facebook page or view our official website (scan the QR code below to visit!) to keep abreast of the latest news. Representatives from the Consulate and its attached agencies regularly appear on RTHK’s Pinoy Life segments, so you can be informed while on the go.

Throughout the pandemic and as we transition into the new normal, your Philippine Consulate has never wavered in its delivery of efficient and effective public services and its commitment to the Filipino community in Hong Kong. We hope for your continued support as we put the pandemic behind us and move forward with the changing of the seasons. God bless you all!

Maraming salamat po!
