Hong Kong Seeks To Boost Shipping Links With Mainland Cities
A Hong Kong shipping industry delegation, led by the Economic Development
and Labour Bureau, is this week visiting Tianjin and Qingdao to promote the

meet officials of the two municipal governments, including communication and
port administration departments, as well as shipowners associations, classification
societies, and representatives of the maritime, port and logistics industries. The visit aims to strengthen co-operation between the maritime communities

in shipping and maritime services in Hong Kong. Seminars at Tianjin and Qingdao will promote Hong Kong's quality maritime services
to the Mainland audience. Topics include maritime law and legal services, ship
