The conference aimed to provide a forum that would bring together scholars, officials, businessmen, journalists and other interested people to analyse and debate the multifarious nature of Japan’s links with Hong Kong, to examine the nature and extent of contemporary Japan-Hong Kong interactions, and the role that Hong Kong plays in Sino-Japanese relations. This conference not only study Japan’s influence on Hong Kong, but the reverse flows from Hong Kong to Japan would also be considered. The cross-fertilization of ideas and opinions will provide a central element of this conference’s conceptualization.
