RTHK and HKU Law Faculty Co-Produce “A Legal Journey” (6-episode TV docudrama in English and Cantonese)

The rule of law is a core value of Hong Kong as well as a cornerstone of the city’s prosperity. To uphold this value and safeguard our system, the Faculty of Law has nurtured not only members of the legal profession but also committed community leaders. Through the 6-episode TV docudrama “A Legal Journey” (現身說法), co-produced by RTHK and the Faculty of Law as one of its 50th Anniversary celebration activities, let us trace the journey of local legal education in the past five decades and how it contributes to the legal system and the rule of law in Hong Kong when meeting the challenges of a rapidly changing environment.

 

To mark the occasion, a Premiere of the programme was held at JC Cube, Tai Kwun on 11 March 2019, which was attended by Professor Xiang Zhang, President and Vice Chancellor of the University, representatives from RTHK, members of the profession, many friends and alumni, staff members and students.  “A Legal Journey” was first aired from March 24 to April 28 on RTHK31 and also on TVB Jade from March 27 for six consecutive weeks.  To view all the episodes recorded in Cantonese, click here. The English version was aired from 15 August 2019 on RTHK31 and can be viewed here.  See also the HKU Law 50th Anniversary website.
