"I believe the humanities can enrich and illuminate our lives. Literature, music, history, philosophy, law, politics, social sciences, architecture and the arts ... are all important. I am honoured to be able to contribute this modest gift to the University as it celebrates its centenary. HKU embodies many of the values of the people and society of Hong Kong. May it continue to serve China and the world as a beacon of knowledge."

Dr Sin Wai-Kin
