I extend my most sincere congratulations to Lingnan University on its 50th anniversary  of re-establishment in Hong Kong.

Half a century ago, Lingnan University, in the name of Lingnan College, embarked on an ambitious journey to combine the  best  of Chinese and Western liberal arts traditions, and seek continuous enrichments to its curricula and teaching philosophy. It has  since flourished along with Hong Kong and  accomplished  enviable achievements  in various domains.

Today, Lingnan University is positioned as one of the finest liberal arts institutions in Asia. Its  insistence  on  close  teacher-student relationship and its commitment to community services are widely acclaimed.

To stay ahead of its competitors as new  opportumtles  and challenges unfold, Hong Kong needs, now more than ever, the creativity, adaptability and humanistic perspective that  Lingnanians  are  renowned for. I am certain that the Lingnan community will continue making significant  contributions to the prosperity of our city.
