The Bihar Foundation (Hong Kong Chapter) was officially launched on 22 March 2026 at the prestigious Indian Recreation Club, Hong Kong, marking a significant milestone for the Indian diaspora in the region. The event brought together prominent members of the community, business leaders, and dignitaries to celebrate unity, cultural heritage, and collaborative growth.
A Community-Driven Initiative
The launch event was thoughtfully organised by dedicated community leaders Mr Shashi Bhushan, Mr Rajesh Kumar, and their team, whose efforts ensured a seamless and impactful gathering. Their commitment to strengthening the Bihar diaspora in Hong Kong was evident in the scale and success of the event.
The initiative aims to create a strong platform for individuals connected to Bihar, fostering networking opportunities, cultural exchange, and socio-economic collaboration within the international community.
Distinguished Presence
The event was graced by Mr Rajesh Naik, Consul General of India in Hong Kong, along with several well-known members of the Indian community. Their presence underscored the importance of such initiatives in strengthening ties between India and its global diaspora.
The gathering served not only as a ceremonial launch but also as a forum for meaningful dialogue on cultural identity, professional growth, and community engagement.
Recognition of Leadership
A highlight of the evening was the recognition of Mr Puran L. Jeswani, CEO of China Trade Forum & Event Management Co Ltd, who was invited and honoured by the organising team for his contributions to international business networking and community engagement.
