Commemorate the 80th Anniversary of Victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and in the World Anti-Fascist War

23. This year marks the 80th anniversary of victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and in the World Anti-Fascist War. The HKSAR Government has organised a series of large-scale commemorative activities, including exhibitions, film screenings and library events, for the public to gain a deeper understanding of the spirit of unity and resilience displayed by Chinese people in the fight for peace. We will collaborate with Shenzhen to promote a new red educational route, under the theme of "Chinese Cultural Celebrity Rescue" history, so as to enhance understanding among people of Hong Kong and tourists of the history of the War of Resistance in Hong Kong.

24. We will comprehensively review and conduct restoration and protection work on historic sites relating to the participation of the Communist Party of China in the War of Resistance in various districts, with a view to integrating them into tourism routes and educational activities.
