本周三(4月15日)是「全民國家安全教育日」，全國各地都有主題式活動，讓民眾一起更深入認識和學習國家安全這個重要課題。在香港，特區政府和社會各界也在各區舉辦一系列活動，旨在讓大眾更深度認識國家的發展和成就，以及發展與安全之間緊密相連、相互促進的關係。

As the first quarter of 2026 passed, the global landscape remains complex and highly fluid. The conflicts in the Middle East continue to weigh on the market sentiment. This external backdrop has dragged on Hong Kong’s equity market: the Hang Seng Index is down around 2% year to date. Even so, trading has remained active. The average daily turnover in the first two months exceeded HK$260 billion, up 17% year on year. Entering March, market activities strengthened further, with average daily turnover surpassing HK$300 billion—more than 8% higher than the same period last year. The increased asset allocations to Hong Kong by investors amid heightened uncertainty suggests that they not only view the city as a reliable safe haven for capital, but are also encouraged by the abundant investment opportunities created by the steady growth in the Mainland's economy and a strong pipeline of quality companies choosing to list in Hong Kong.

A series of mega events held in Hong Kong over the past few weeks has drawn visitors from around the world, creating a lively atmosphere across the city. One of the highlights over the past two days has undoubtedly been Art Basel Hong Kong, which is being held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai.
