When giving a speech at the meeting, Dr Chui introduced the self-financing institutions in Hong Kong and history and future campus development of HSMC, which greatly interested the delegation members. Prof Raymond So, Dean of School of Business, then delivered a speech on the self-financing business programs of higher education institutions and issues of concern for private colleges in Hong Kong. Prof So’s perceptions also helped the delegation to understand more deeply the cultivation of business specialists in Hong Kong.

He said: “This visit has strengthened the understanding of both sides on each other’s education systems, and it has provided a good opportunity for our future cooporation.” In the following discussion section, some delegation members expressed their wish to launch an exchange program with HSMC.
