Officiating guests unveil the Fook Kwan Clinic. True to its name, which means “blessing the community”, the clinic provides subsidised medical services to vulnerable groups

Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) held the opening ceremony of the “HKBU Shatin Fook Kwan Chinese Medicine Clinic” on 9 June 2026 to express its sincere gratitude to Shum’s Investment Limited for its generous donation of a property in Sha Tin to HKBU. This donation enabled the School of Chinese Medicine (SCM) to establish a new Chinese medicine clinic, providing residents of the New Territories with quality Chinese medicine services. 

Officiating guests at the opening ceremony included Ms. Sham Lai Ping; Mr. Shum Chee On; Mrs. Shum Tam Wan Ching; and Mr. Fook Pui Chi, members of the Shum family; along with Professor Alex Wai, JP, President and Vice-Chancellor; Professor Lyu Aiping, Vice-President (Research and Development) cum Dean of Graduate School; Ms. Christine Chow, Vice-President (Administration) and Secretary; Professor Li Min, Dean of the SCM; and Professor Sun Feng, Director of the Clinical Division of the SCM. Other guests included Mrs. Lily Chan, Director of University Advancement and Secretary-General of the HKBU Foundation; and Professor Yang Junjun, Executive Associate Director of the Clinical Division of the SCM. 

At the ceremony, Professor Alex Wai expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Shum’s Investment Limited for its contribution, emphasising that this donation not only promotes the development of local healthcare services but also fully embodies the spirit of caring for society and giving back to the community. He added that the donation will further assist the SCM in expanding its network of Chinese medicine clinics, providing convenient Chinese medicine services to residents of Sha Tin and the New Territories East, while also offering medical concessions to vulnerable groups, thereby benefitting the wider public. This gesture aptly reflects the profound significance of the clinic’s name, “Fook Kwan”, which translates to “blessing the community”. 

Since 1999, HKBU has been committed to developing high-quality, systematic outpatient services in Chinese medicine. To date, the University operates nine self-run and seven jointly operated clinics across Hong Kong.
