Operation Santa Claus 2017 Opening Ceremony - Highlight Version

2017-11-15
Operation Santa Claus (OSC), jointly organised by Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) and South China Morning Post (SCMP), has raised over HK$260 million and benefited more than 250 different charities in the past 29 years. A launch ceremony for “Operation Santa Claus 2017”, themed as “Changing Lives for Good”, was held on 13 November at Hong Kong Maritime Museum to celebrate its 30th anniversary. 14 good causes that will benefit from this year’s community-wide charity event were also introduced.
In conjunction with the pearl anniversary of OSC, the stage is decorated in the theme of ocean. Honorary Patron, Chief Secretary for Administration Matthew CHEUNG Kin-chung was invited to be the guest of honour for “Operation Santa Claus 2017” Launch Ceremony. Besides Matthew CHEUNG Kin-chung, other officiating guests, including Director of Broadcasting LEUNG Ka-wing, Chief Executive Officer of SCMP Gary LIU, OSC 2017 Ambassador Gin LEE, and Museum Director of Hong Kong Maritime Museum Richard WESLEY, jointly kicked off the campaign by lighting up the big pearl that symbolises bliss, putting forward the message of “It is more blessed to give than to receive”. This marked the beginning of a series of fundraising events that will be held throughout November and December. The Ceremony also featured several performances by “Hong Kong Super Skippers”, DJ JUNK!, as well as “Giving Voices” which is a choir formed by major OSC corporate donors.
