CULTURE & HERITAGE
Conservation of heritage, whether in the form of tangible buildings or intangible customs and traditions, is instrumental to fostering a sense of pride and identity for local communities, and the thread of continuity it provides in a fast-changing world has immense significance for our future generations. “The Splendors of China” program was an important initiative through which our Macau colleagues learned about China’s cultural heritage, economic policies, social systems and values. Another program, the “Greater Bay Area Executive Tour”, also allowed our colleagues to gain a better understanding of the region. In Japan, we have promoted heritage by sponsoring a group of promising young leaders from Macau to join an international cultural preservation program at Himeji Castle and supporting a traditional Japanese ‘Hyoen’ performance. In Cyprus, our support of the “Heritage Signs” project will actively promote the authenticity of the island’s most significant heritage sites by sponsoring heritage enhancements and sharing information that will significantly improve the tourist experience.
