The Hong Kong Athletic Federation plans to hold the Hong Kong Marathon once more in November this year. Acting Sports Commissioner Zheng Qingyun said in a radio interview this morning (14th) that he has not received any application for relevant funding from Mr. Tian, but he is very supportive of Mr. Tian’s plan. Zheng Qingyun said that the current epidemic prevention measures are mask orders. I believe that there are very few special arrangements for the competition. I am confident that Mr. Tian can increase the number of entries. As for the level of increase, the two sides have not discussed it yet. If Mr. Tian has a direction, The Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau will definitely give the greatest support and hope to hold a bigger marathon.
Zheng Qingyun also said that he was very encouraged by the Hong Kong Marathon just held. He saw many friends who like to run participate in the event. The attendance rate of this event is also quite high. As the epidemic subsides, many sports events will be held one following another, including golf in March Football and rugby matches will be held in full swing.
