Speaking at the launch event, John Lee, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region hailed the venue as the largest sports, entertainment and mega event complex in Hong Kong’s history. “The magnificent, multi-purpose Kai Tak Sports Park is a grand stage offering the most enjoyable experience for sports and recreation, entertainment and a whole lot more. Our new home ground will raise every game, on every match!” Mr Lee said. “And you can count on scores of concerts by top singers and bands from home and abroad, here to raise the roof of Kai Tak Stadium.” Kai Tak Sports Park is the largest sports infrastructure project in Hong Kong’s history. Starting with a thunderous drum roll and traditional lion dance, the two-hour show featured performances by top local singers spanning different genres and generations as well as appearances by renowned celebrities and sports stars from Hong Kong and Mainland China. It was a fitting opening of the 28-hectare KTSP, which will boost sports development and inject impetus into related industries such as recreation, entertainment and tourism, and also the mega-event economy, thereby consolidating Hong Kong’s reputation as an events capital in Asia. The centrepiece Kai Tak Stadium boasts an eye-catching “Pearl of the Orient” design theme and a seating capacity of 50,000, making it the largest in Hong Kong. It features a customisable pitch system and retractable roof. This makes it an ideal venue for elite sports competitions as well as grand-scale concerts, vibrant music festivals and exciting cultural programmes. Kai Tak Arena, with a capacity of 10,000 seats, is another versatile state-of-the-art facility designed to host various international tournaments. It is also convertible to accommodate other events such as fencing or snooker. With an adaptable configuration and interchangeable flooring surfaces, the arena can provide seamless transition between top-level sports events and community activities. The outdoor Kai Tak Youth Sports Ground with 5,000 seats is an excellent venue for football and rugby matches, team and athlete training sessions, and school sports days. Kai Tak Sports Park officially opened on March 1 with a grand ceremony. A series of blockbuster events has already been lined up for KTSP. Among them are the World Grand Prix (snooker) and Hong Kong Sevens (rugby) in March and British rock band Coldplay’s world tour in April. KTSP will also be an iconic new destination for Hong Kong’s exciting co-hosting of the 15th National Games with Guangdong and Macao in November. Hong Kong will host a total of eight competition events and one mass participation event of the National Games, with Fencing, Handball (men), Rugby Sevens and the Mass Participation Event of Bowling set to take place at KTSP.

These COEs build on DHL’s offering of customized solutions covering capital equipment for new EV-related factories, inbound-to-manufacturing (I2M), finished vehicles and aftermarket logistics in the region. DHL supports the electric vehicle sector growth in Asia Pacific “Over the next five years, Asia is expected to account for 63% of the new 115 million EVs sold worldwide.[1] A robust and compliant logistics supply chain ecosystem is needed to support this growing demand, and our EV Centers of Excellence in Shanghai, Singapore, and Indonesia serve as hubs of competencies and resources for the growing EV industry across the Asia Pacific , ” said Fathi Tlatli, Global Auto-Mobility Sector President, DHL Customer Solutions and Innovation.

The three EV COEs in China, Singapore and Indonesia are connected to a global network of COEs in 10 countries including Italy, United Kingdom, Mexico and the United Arab of Emirates. “When people think of EVs, it is often associated with the finished vehicle itself. However, there is an entire complex ecosystem behind the EV value chain, which is crucial in orchestrating the process. That is our advantage as DHL Group, as we can offer customized solutions for every segment utilizing our expertise and our extensive global network,” said Audrey Gerard, Vice President of Auto-Mobility, Asia Pacific, DHL Customer Solutions and Innovation.

The property has a total building area of approximately 7,501 square feet (Not verified.) and is currently listed at HKD 85 million with existing tenancies. Acquired and renovated by a fund in October 2021, the property features three shops, generating around HKD 80,000 per month. The residential section comprises 50 rooms, managed by IRENT as student apartments. According to IRENT’s website, room rentals inclusive of management fees range from HKD 6,610 to HKD 9,240 and occupancy levels are high. There is potential to upgrade the rooms to all include an ensuite bathrooms, which would further enhance rental returns. Additionally, the property can be sold as a company, offering investors greater flexibility and convenience. The location boasts excellent connectivity, with Ho Man Tin MTR Station just a 6-minute walk away, and both Hung Hom MTR Station and Whampoa MTR Station approximately 10 minutes on foot. The Hong Kong Polytechnic is about a 15-minute walk from the property and Metropolitan University is just a 19-minutue walk away. Situated in Hung Hom, it is adjacent to the new residential project Baker Circle developed by Henderson Land and the Onmantin development atop Ho Man Tin MTR Station by Great Eagle. The surrounding neighborhood features numerous shops and dining options, providing convenient amenities to meet diverse needs. Mr. Alvin Lau, Director of Capital Markets in Cushman & Wakefield, stated: “In the 2024 Policy Address, the government reaffirmed its commitment to establishing a ‘Study in Hong Kong’ brand by increasing the quota for non-local students from 20% to 40%. This initiative is expected to attract a greater number of non-local students to pursue their studies in Hong Kong, resulting in a projected shortage of at least 55,400 university accommodation places. Due to the insufficient availability of on-campus accommodation, students who are unable to secure university accommodations will inevitably turn to the private market. This strong demand presents significant business opportunities for both private real estate investors and student hostel operators. As private student accommodations are specifically designed for students, investing in student apartments has increasingly become a popular choice. It offers investors stable rental income, making it an attractive option for long-term investment strategies.
