Ms Kwan stated that RTHK hopes the memorandum will further deepen co-operation with TDM, deepen mutual understanding between audiences in Hong Kong and Macao, and strengthen public appreciation of history of the nation. She pointed out that RTHK has actively expanded its collaboration network, establishing partnerships over the past year with broadcasters in Malaysia, Vietnam, Guangdong, and Guangxi etc. Leveraging Hong Kong's advantage of connecting the Mainland and the world, RTHK programmes have reached audiences across different regions. She reaffirmed RTHK's commitment to telling the good stories of the country and promoting Chinese culture.

During her visit, Ms Kwan also attended the 121st ABU Administrative Council Meeting, where she exchanged views with broadcasting professionals from various countries and regions.
