Secretary for Justice Rimsky Yuen will visit Xiamen on April 26 and 27 to attend the Seminar on Hong Kong Legal and Arbitration Services. He will deliver an opening address.

The seminar aims to promote Hong Kong's important role as a legal services and dispute resolution centre in the Asia Pacific Region, covering legal issues, risk management and dispute resolution. In particular, it focuses on assisting Mainland enterprises in their process of investing outside of China, or 'going out'.

The seminar will be attended by legal and arbitration professionals, government officials and business sectors of both Fujian Province and Hong Kong, including the Hong Kong Bar Association, the Law Society of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre.

During his stay, Mr Yuen will meet Xiamen Party Secretary Yu Weiguo, and Director-General of the Department of Justice of Fujian Province Chen Yixing. He will also visit exhibitions of Fujian Xiamen Hong Kong Week 2013. Deputy Solicitor General Peter Wong will also join the visit.
