     Speaking at the cocktail reception at the pop-up store on March 14 (Paris time) in Paris, the Special Representative for Hong Kong Economic and Trade Affairs to the European Union, Ms Shirley Yung remarked that "Hong Kong is committed to supporting creative industries including arts and design. Nurturing talents and bringing them to the global market is an important part of our efforts in developing Hong Kong as an international cultural hub".
