The South China Morning Post reported that Hong Kong must leverage its financial-crime expertise to build meaningful cooperation across nearly 200 member delegations.
During the opening ceremony for the Hong Kong International Academy of Policing, Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu stated that the academy signifies a new stage where the police force will build upon its local capabilities to broaden international collaboration in the areas of leadership development and training.
The Interpol gathering occurs while transnational crime is evolving to be more complex, subtle, widespread, and increasingly seamless within a digitally linked environment. Hong Kong has the potential, given its status as a global financial hub and a cosmopolitan city, to promote more robust enforcement and cooperation across different jurisdictions, thereby illustrating its dedication to combating financial crimes.
