The Hong Kong Geographical Association was founded in 1969 with the objective of pro-moting interest in geography among residents of Hong Kong and stimulating teaching and re-search in the field. Since that time, the Association has served as the organization which unites all persons in Hong Kong who work in geography and related subjects. Through its pro-gramme of activities, the Association continuously strives to promote the status and visibility of geography and geographers in Hong Kong.Membership is open without restriction to anyone who is interested in the aims of the As-sociation. All persons who share these aims are welcome to join the Association and contribute to its success by taking active part in its work. Upon the foundation of the successes of the last 1/4 of a century, we are looking forward to greeting another 25 years of rapid and steady de-velopment.
