Ceremony to Commemorate Those Who Died in the Defence of Hong Kong

Since 1998, we have been organising an annual ceremony to pay tribute to those who died in the defence of Hong Kong and hope the later generations not to forget the history and cherish the life and peace. The ceremony is held on Chung Yeung Festival at the purposely built Hong Kong City Hall Memorial Garden.

Senior government officials, representatives of Central People's Government organisations in Hong Kong, community dignitaries, members of the consulates concerned, former members of the Hong Kong Independent Battalion of the Dongjiang Column and war veterans' groups are present in the Ceremony.
