City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) hosted two visits to the Lee Shau Kee Student Residence Village (Student Residence Village) for the delegation of the Sha Tin District Office and the delegation of chairpersons and members of the owners’ committees of the residential properties in the neighbourhood in October 2024 and January 2025 respectively to promote communication and encourage cooperation with the community members in the Sha Tin District where the Student Residence Village was located.

The visit provided a valuable opportunity for CityUHK and the District Office to foster effective communication and explore opportunities for more cooperation for the benefits of community members in the district and CityUHK students.
On 7 January 2025, Professor Chan, joined by Professor Henry Chung, Dean of Students; Professor Steve Wong; and Ms Grace Ng, Supervisory Executive Officer, SRO; received a delegation of 25 guests at the Student Residence Office.

The meeting helped establish a fruitful dialogue between CityUHK and the residents in the neighbourhood, promoting understanding and fostering communication.
