The Rui Cunha Foundation opens the Gallery doors on Wednesday, on January 18, 2023, for the traditional “Fai Chun . Votive Papers Offering” event, where the public may come and collect their Chinese calligraphy messages for good luck, free of charge, from 10:00am to 4:00pm, co-organzed with The Flora Garden Poetry Friends Association.

The population is invited to enter and choose their best wishes for good luck and prosperity, under the guidance of 26 local master calligraphers – such as Ung Choi Kun, Hong San San, Choi Vai Keng, and Ng Pio (Yum Fung Chan), President of the Association. Poets such as Ko Tak Kong, Chong Iat Fai and Yun Wing On will also create Spring Festival couplets on site, throughout the day, under the celebrations of the Chinese Lunar New Year of the Rabbit.

Fai Chun (揮春) is a traditional decoration, often used during the Chinese New Year, which also marks the arrival of the spring season. In English it can be translated as Spring Wave. People put the Fai Chun on the doors to create a festive and joyful atmosphere, as the calligraphic phrases mean good luck and prosperity. Typically, Fai Chun papers are red in color, with black or gold characters inscribed with a brush, aiming to protect the houses with wishes of good auspices for the year to come. Nowadays, printed and mass-produced versions are more frequent. They can be square or rectangular and hung vertically or horizontally, usually in pairs. Not only do they exist in China, but also in Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

2023 is the Year of the Water Rabbit, which begins on January 22nd, 2023 (first day of the Chinese New Year) and lasts until February 9th, 2024. The Rabbit is the fourth sign in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. In Chinese culture, the Rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace and prosperity. 2023 is predicted to be a year of hope.

People born in the Year of the Rabbit are believed to be vigilant, witty, quick-minded and resourceful. They are sincere in everything they do, expecting to be treated in the same way. For those who do not know them, Rabbit natives’ kindness can make them appear weak and vulnerable. In truth, the calm personality of the Rabbit hides its confidence and strength.

Join us and pick up a pair of Fai Chun to put on your doorstep and greet the arrival of the Lunar New Year!

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Tuesday, January 10th at 6:30pm, the opening ceremony of Solo Exhibition “The Pure in Golden Age”, by Natalie Lao, who brings to the gallery walls 19 paintings on silk and paper that recreate an oriental influenced style with a contemporary focus.

Natalie Lao «uses different image elements in her works to express her views on the impermanence and change of things in the world, while warning herself not to be too forceful and persistent», reveals the project's information. According to the artist, «contradictory design concepts have always been a source of inspiration for her creations».

«The fine brushwork imitates the pattern of silk cloth and she applies it to her paintings. The visual overlap of two different elements makes people understand the primary and secondary relationship at work. Thinking and perfectly conveying ideas, she uses visual hallucinations to awaken people for a discussion about the truth and falsehood of what they see. A curtain or a silk fabric can play a role in covering objects. When she uses these imagery symbols, it is also for the sake of expressing the contradictory relationship going on in her heart: one that she hopes others will read and understand, but at the same time she fears for the impact of being noticed», according to the same text.

Born in Heshan County, south of Guangdong Province, Natalie Lao graduated in 2016 from the Macao Polytechnic University, completing the Higher School of Visual and Fine Arts’ Bachelor Degree Program (Fine Arts majoring in Chinese painting). In 2017 she entered an advanced training course on Flower and Bird Painting Themes at Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. She is currently the Deputy Chairman and Executive Director of Macao Yiyuan Painting and Calligraphy Association, and the Vice Chairman of Hao Jiang Printing Society.

The artworks will be on display at the FRC Gallery until January 28, 2023.

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Monday, December 12th at 6:30pm, the opening ceremony of “Embracing the World”, a Quick Sketch Exhibition of Lok Hei’s Footprints, the celebrated local artist who will display 23 serigraphed prints and 2 original drawings of places he visited in his contemplative search for the beauty and serenity of landscapes and scenery around the globe. The project is supported by the Macau Culture Development Promotion Association.

Comprising 25 artworks, this exhibition reveals how, in the words of Legislative Council’s Deputy and Master of Arts Chan Ho Sing, «the brush of the artist covers the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland. And the valleys and waterways in the foreign lands. He is full of appreciation, praise, and blessings. The feelings are simple and sincere, without boundaries».

«Traveling is a form of life for people», he says, and «good memories are also a source of joy. The exhibits include scenes familiar to you and me, such as sceneries of Macau, the Forbidden City in Beijing, the landscape of Guilin, the Mausoleum of Yellow Emperor in Shaanxi, Zhujiajiao in Shanghai, Nyingchi in Tibet, the Town of Furong in Hunan, St. Petersburg in Russia, Porto in Portugal, Venice in Italy, Okinawa in Japan, etc». For Chan Ho Sing, «images are delivered to the audience’s eyes as if one belongs in it. And each can fill in the colors freely in their minds», he concludes.

Lok Hei was born in Macau and has worked in advertising design and exhibition planning for many years. He is currently the Director of China Artists Association, President of the Macau Artist Society, Director of the China Association for Preservation and Development of Tibetan Culture, standing Director of Guangdong's Association for Promotion of Cooperation Between Guangdong, Hong Kong & Macau; and Chairman of the Macau Culture Development Promotion Association. He has held “Lok Hei, Ng Wai Kin Fine Arts Exhibition” in Hong Kong and Macau; and “Lok Cheong, Lok Hei, Ng Wai Kin Fine Arts Exhibition” in Portugal. His publications include “Doors in Black and White – Lok Hei Sketch Collection”; the Manuscript of “Taijiquan Interpretation”; and the 100-meter picture scroll of “Macao Back To Common Roots”.

The artworks will be on display at the FRC Gallery until January 7, 2023.

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents tomorrow, Tuesday, November 29th at 6:30pm, the Annual Arts Showcase “Crossing the Interior Frontiers – It's time to travel!”, that will display paintings and ceramics created by about 20 participants in the process of recovery from the Ká Hó Integrated Services Center of ARTM – Association of Rehabilitation of Dependencies of Macau.

This year, the selection of handicrafts includes around 20 oil paintings, 10 watercolors and 50 ceramic pieces, many with Christmas motifs to buy as gifts for the festive season. In recent years, the arts have been an essential component in the daily life of the ARTM therapeutic community, through different activities and techniques, with a view to promoting the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing of patients, allowing their growth throughout the process of individual change.

The motto for this edition was inspired by the phrase of Mozambican writer Mia Couto: «The journey does not start when you travel distances, but when you cross your inner borders». ARTM adds that «courage helps us to go through unknown places, which are inside of us and most of the time bring to our consciousness discomfort, pain and fear. And this happens because the inner borders hide places never traveled before. It's a long journey of experience and discovery of the "Me", "You" and "We". A journey where we learn to walk slowly, at our own rhythm, and there is no rush to arrive».

The display, which has been supported by FRC since 2020, is an important moment to celebrate the results achieved by each participant in their path of reintegration into the society. The Association of Rehabilitation of Dependencies of Macau is a local non-profit organization that offers therapeutic programs for recovering from drug and other addictions, such as gambling and alcohol. ARTM also develops guidance and follow-up services for former addicts, as well as primary prevention services for young people, families, schools, and the community, with a strong commitment to public health and human rights.

The artworks will be on display at FRC Gallery until December 3, 2022.

《The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Tuesday, November 15th at 6:30pm, the Photo Exhibition “What once was, will be no more”, a project by award-winning journalist and photographer Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro, that merges old and current images from the city of Macau and Islands, showcased at the FRC Gallery and in an author's edition Book.

There are 20 photographs, about one meter by one meter in size, that follow the evolution of the territory over decades, signed, numbered, and limited for collection purposes, up to a maximum of 3 reproductions each. The selection was made by the author, from a set of 40 images completing the book, which will be available during the inauguration, prefaced by Portuguese jurist and politician who lived in Macau, Maria de Belém Roseira.

«This book and the exhibition represent an encounter between the past and the present. The idea, which is not a first in the world, turns out to be in Macau. And the enthusiasm started there. For a little over a year, I collected old images of the territory, captured between the 1930s and 1990s, in black and white, with different formats. I have acquired them at auctions, on the Internet, from individuals, in stores and even in Portugal», explains Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro in his proposal.

«I was ambitious in the first months of the project's execution. I conceived a final work that would include at least 100 photographs (…). But I couldn't, I assume. Or better, I managed to have about 100 images in my possession, but from those I only chose to edit and publish 40, exposing 20». And the author explains that although some scenarios are still recognizable, others simply no longer exist. «Everything has changed. Therefore, in most cases, what once was, will be no more...».

Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro is a Portuguese photographer and journalist, born on 4 April 1979 and based in Macau for over 12 years. He started by studying Geological Engineering, but graduated in Communication Sciences, variant Journalism, at Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa. He worked for several Portuguese and foreign publications as a contributor, including A Bola, o I, Público, Correio da Manhã, O Comércio do Porto, Expresso, Washington Post, BBC, The Guardian, among others. In Macau he joined the newspaper Hoje Macau, where he worked as a copywriter, photojournalist, and editor between 2010 and 2014. Winner of several awards throughout his career, he has also published several photography books. He is currently part of the editorial staff of the newspaper Ponto Final and has a collaboration with the Portuguese news agency LUSA.

The artworks will be on display at FRC Gallery until November 26, 2022.

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Saturday, November 12 at 5:00 pm, a “Joint Recital of Bel Canto & The Macau Polytechnic University”, integrated in the series of musical concerts “Nam Van Sound Waves”, co-organized by the Macau Vocal Association.

Under the orientation of Macau Polytechnic University’s Music Course teacher, Dr. Wang Xi, the selected program for this afternoon will showcase the highly accomplished voices of sopranos Yirong Wang and Yuan Tao, and tenors Liangyi Chen and Yuzhuo Zhang, accompanied on the piano by teacher Ms. May Poon.

Also noteworthy is the presence of oboe player Jiahui Lu, performing a classical theme by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The recital will also feature musical pieces by composers Gabriel Fauré, George Friedrich Handel, Ernest Chausson, Gaetano Donizetti, Giuseppe Verdi, Francis Poulenc, Vincenzo Bellini, Siyue Zhao, Shande Ding, Changqun Ao and Yi Zhou.

Bel Canto is considered the maximum expression of human voice. The Italian term was coined in the 18th century and is still today taught in a similar way as in the past. This vocal technique emphasizes the beauty of sound and the technical capacity of the artist, instead of the dramatic expression or romantic emotion.

Admission is free.

The five teenagers to follow are the female quintet Lazy Jones, taught by drummer Carmen Ip. They performed in the last edition of Saturday Night Jazz and will now return with new songs and some classics. With Diana Piscarreta (vocals), Gale Tsui (piano), Emily Hong (drums), and the sisters Nana Chan (guitar) and Twinkle Chan (bass), a fun night is guaranteed but will only be complete with your Halloween fantasy costume!

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Wednesday, October 12th at 6:30pm, the Painting Exhibition “Inspiration – Old Macau Landscapes”, by the late Mexican born artist based in Macau, Emílio Cervantes Júnior, and curated by his daughter, Joana Bañares Cervantes Nogueira, which shows sceneries of Macau and the Islands, streets, buildings, boats, and people, painted over his last 17 years of life.

The exhibition displays 33 paintings in oil, watercolor, gouache, and Chinese ink wash, reflecting the ancient city, the green landscape, the population, the western and eastern architecture, mostly from Macau, but also from mainland China. According to his daughter, «Emílio Cervantes Júnior was born in Mexico on July 9, 1931. At the age of 5 he came to Macau with his parents and never returned to his homeland. He started painting as a teenager, in Macau, and never left the brush until his last months of life, in 2017».

«To improve his painting skills, he would read a lot of books, walk through the streets and alleys of Macau, Taipa and Coloane, and take pictures of landscapes, old houses, fisherman boats, etc. It was from photographs that he depicted his oil painting themes and, in the 1990s, he also began to experiment with watercolors», she explains.

In addition to painting, which he has exhibited in local solo and joint exhibitions, he was also the author of posters for institutional campaigns of the Health Service Bureau and the Macau Grand Prix, and designed stamps for the Macau Post.

The artist had a military career, stationed at the Macau General Headquarters until his retirement. But he was a man of varied interests, devoted equally to local sports and music. He was a part of Dr. Pedro José Lobo’s Tuna Negro-Rubro orchestra, where he played clarinet, saxophone, banjo, viola, etc.

The paintings will be on display at FRC Gallery until October 29, 2022.

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Monday, September 26th at 6:30pm, a special session of “Music Illustrated Talks” at the FRC Gallery, entitled “Gateway to the Romantic: Beethoven the Giant” and led by pianist and teacher Leung Hio Meng, in anticipation of the concert with the same name that will take place on September 30th in the Small Auditorium of Macau Cultural Center (CCM).

Like the first event, which took place on July 6th, 2021, under the title “The Pillars of Romantic Music for Piano”, Professor Leung Hio Meng will once again lecture a piano master class for the general public, where he will talk about Ludwig van Beethoven and his prodigy.

The music of the great German composer, who lived between 1770 and 1827, captivated audiences and was part of the repertoire of very famous violinists, pianists, chamber music formations and symphony orchestras. He influenced those who came after him, namely Wagner, Schubert, Mahler, Strauss and Boulez, to the musicians and composers of today, such as the Beatles, Pink Floyd or Genesis.

Having created a grandiose and sublime work, which in the history of music marks the transition from the Classical to the Romantic period, Beethoven has a prominent place in the great hall of Humanity, integrating the time capsule of the Voyager Golden Record, on a journey since 1977 through space. Today many scholars consider him the greatest composer of the 19th century, others distinguish him as one of the few men who deserve the adjective “genius”.

According to the theme's introduction, «during his middle creative period [about 1802 to 1812], Beethoven had exerted the greatest influence on later composers. Some of his most famous and popular masterpieces were composed at this time, and the piano sonatas are particularly memorable and attractive. When we talk about such sonatas, the first impressions that come to our mind are emotion, pain, struggle, passion, sometimes even the dark side of his character. This is certainly Beethoven’s Dionysian side. At the same time, some of this music is full of humor, lightheartedness, peace of mind, positive attitude, etc. Therefore, the Apollonian side of Beethoven is fully revealed. The four piano sonatas in this talk will certainly prove these arguments», promises the guest professor.

Leung Hio Meng (梁曉鳴) is a pianist, with a BA in Music (1987), Masters in Piano Performance (1989) and Music Theory (1993), and a PhD in Musical Arts (2000), degrees obtained from the University of Kansas, in USA. In addition to the extensive list of academic merit awards and distinctions, he is now Visiting Associate Professor at the Macau Polytechnic University (UPM), where he has been teaching Musical Art since 2018.

The session will be presented in English.

A Fundação Rui Cunha e a Associação dos Médicos de Língua Portuguesa de Macau organizam no próximo dia 14 de Dezembro, quarta-feira, às 18h30, na Fundação Rui Cunha, uma conferência subordinada ao tema do Sono.

Com o título “O Sono, muito mais do que dormir”, a sessão terá como oradora a Dra. Sandra Marques, medica internista e com o título de expert em somnologia pela European Sleep Research Society; PhD fellow em Psicologia da Emoção pela Universidade Católica Portuguesa; Directora Clínica da Clínica Lusíadas Almada e Coordenadora da Consulta de Medicina do Sono.

A pausa celular e/ou o sono fazem parte da vida desde sempre.

No homem, o padrão de sono vem sendo alterado, ao longo dos séculos, pelo comportamento em sociedade, apesar da necessidade fisiológica de sono não ter mudado.

A necessidade de dormir tem uma variação individual e ao longo da vida.

Em média, um adulto necessita de 8 h de sono por dia. Mas, a maioria dos indivíduos não dorme o tempo suficiente.

Uma Sociedade H24, 7/7 seja para estudar, trabalhar ou divertir, leva a padrões de sono inadequados com consequências a curto, médio e a longo prazo.

No imediato, a privação de sono afecta o julgamento, o humor, a capacidade de aprender e consolidar a informação e aumenta seriamente o risco de acidentes.

A longo prazo, estudos recentes, mostram que a privação de sono e/ou perturbação crónica do sono está associada ao aumento do risco de doenças crónicas como a obesidade, a Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2, a HTA, a doença cardiovascular e a mortalidade precoce de qualquer causa. Ou seja, dormir de forma insuficiente afecta directamente a nossa saúde!

The Rui Cunha Foundation and the Docomomo Research Center of Macau present on Thursday, October 20 at 7:00pm, a lecture entitled “Building the 20th Century: Chui Tak Kei”, with the participation of Information Advisor João Guedes and Architect Rui Leão as key speakers.

The lecture will feature the achievements of businessman Chui Tak Kei (1912-2007) throughout his life, as well as his contribution to Macau society and the civil construction sector. A prominent local figure, he participated in the construction and development of Macau, through his role as a political and cultural agent, establishing a close relationship with the Portuguese community, and always expressing his interest in the social well-being of communities.

João Guedes, journalist and writer, has been an Information Advisor for the Portuguese Radio and Television Channels of TDM since 2005. Formerly he has been Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Editor-in-Chief, Deputy Director of Information (1997) and Director of Information and Programmes for the Portuguese Radio and Television Channels (2000). In 2018 he released the photobiography “Chui Tak Kei – History in a Biography”, where he collected for future memory the great achievements of this outstanding personality of the Chinese community in Macau.

Rui Leão, architect, is President of the Docomomo Macau Research Center and President of the International Council of Portuguese-Speaking Architects (CIALP), with a PhD in Architecture and Urbanism at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) in Australia. He also works in the editorial area, focused on heritage and urban aspects.

Theme:
Chui Tak Kei – uncle of the former Chief Executive, Chui Sai On – was a distinguished businessman and a construction investor, but above all he excelled on a social and political level, becoming Vice-President of the Legislative Assembly of Macau, and participating in the process of Macau’s transfer of sovereignty and the drafting of the Basic Law.

During World War II, he directed the Tung Sin Tong Association, a charity that provided aid to refugees, an important role because it was where he began his public life and his social and political intervention.

A leading figure in the business industry, he was President of the Macau Commercial Association – which was at the time a sort of shadow government for the local Chinese community – and would later be the founder of the Macau Civil Constructors Association, of which he became the executive chairman, and later honorary president until the end of his life.

He was a member of the Macau SAR Basic Law Drafting Commission and the SAR Preparatory Commission, as well as Chairman of the SAR Basic Law Advisory Committee.

A lover of music and Fine Arts, he devoted himself in his spare time to drawing, painting and Chinese calligraphy, in addition to being a great admirer and collector of Chinese art.

The Rui Cunha Foundation and the Macau Portuguese and English Press Association (AIPIM) present a commemorative lecture on Monday, September 12 at 6:30pm, entitled “The Bee of China: 200 Years of Press in Macau”. The initiative celebrates the bicentennial of the first issue of a newspaper ever published in Macau, the Portuguese “A Abelha da China”, which took place on September 12, 1822, as a very noticeable political orientation outlet at the time.

This date marks the beginning of the written press in Macau, which was linked to the Liberal movement in Portugal and to some supporters of that movement in Macau. “A Abelha da China” was the precursor of hundreds of titles that would then start to appear in the territory in Portuguese, Chinese and more recently in English.

The event will be an enriching session on the history of Macau and a valuable contribution of this newspaper to the history of all Portuguese-language journalism in China, allowing everyone to revisit the socio-political and cultural context of the territory at the beginning of the 19th century.

The lecture has as speakers João Guedes, journalist and author, and Daniel Pires, university professor. The moderation of the panel will be by José Miguel Encarnação, journalist and president of the Macau Portuguese and English Press Association (AIPIM).

The session will be entirely held in Portuguese, without simultaneous interpretation.

Macao’s economic prosperity at the turn of the 16th to the 17th centuries placed the small outpost in a conspicuous position and generated greed, among other facts, from the Dutch. These, since they settled in Java, believed that economic dominance of the surrounding seas was at hand. Macau was the hub of all commerce, making it an obsession for those from the Netherlands to seize the city and the pivotal role it played. It was 400 years ago.

On the 24th of June 1622, the landing of the enemies in the bay of Cacilhas Beach began at dawn. There were 13 Dutch ships, plus 2 English ships, with 800 operational men (600 Europeans and another 200 among Japanese, Malays and Gujaratis) that arrived to the shore with all the paraphernalia of armament in 32 boats…

How did Macau defend itself and manage to win this almost impossible battle? The Rui Cunha Foundation and the Association of Former Students of the Commercial School “Pedro Nolasco” (AAAEC), present a short documentary, entitled “Questioning History: The Dutch attack on Macau 400 years ago – 24 June 1622/2022”, starring the historian and researcher Beatriz Basto da Silva and directed by José Basto da Silva, within the scope of the series “Notebook of Stories” that had to be canceled due to the current Authorities’ Health restrictions.

The film is subtitled in Portuguese, Chinese and English.

官樂怡基金會將於五月五日(星期四)下午六點卅分在官樂怡基金會畫廊以《葡萄牙書信:像女性般的愛》為主題並為慶祝世界葡萄牙語日所舉行的會議,該活動是與澳門書蟲協會、IPOR-Instituto Português do Oriente、東方基金會和葡萄牙駐澳門和香港總領事館聯合舉辦。

《葡萄牙書信》的歷史可追溯至一六六四年,出自葡萄牙貝雅市修道院修女著名瑪麗安娜•艾爾科弗拉多(Mariana Alcoforado) 之手,她將這些信件寫給了在光復戰爭中為葡萄牙而戰的法國士兵 De Chamilly之情書。

這是一份浪漫主義加劇的文件,是絕對熱情和奉獻的結果,值得司湯達和盧梭等作家評論。也許這就是它成為世界文學傑作並被奉為深愛的見證的原因。儘管它具有古典主義色彩,但它引起了人們對藝術領域如戲劇、電影和歌劇方面的極大興趣。

為了展示這部偉大的文學作品,活動邀了身在里斯本的Victor Correia(通過zoom視像)以“作為葡萄牙語和女性的愛”作主題發言; Leonor Diaz de Seabra(親身到場)以 “Mariana Alcoforado and her time” 作主題發言; Luciana Barboza 身在巴西(通過zoom視像)以“葡萄牙字母在遊戲中——舞台上的情感”為主題; Myriam Cyr身在加拿大(通過zoom視像)以“葡萄牙修女的信——揭開17 世紀禁忌愛情背後的奧秘”為主題; João Guilherme Ripper身在巴西(通過zoom視像)以“歌劇‘Cartas Portuguesas’中的構圖程序”為題發言;馬仕華醫生(親身到場)以“給靈魂伴侶的信”;和李宇樑(親身到場)以“香夢” 為主題發言。

活動將以葡萄牙語進行,並設有粵語同聲傳譯。

The Rui Cunha Foundation will co-organize on Thursday, May 5th at 6:30pm, at the FRC Gallery venue, a Conference celebrating the World Day of the Portuguese Language, under the theme “Portuguese Letters: A Woman’s Love”, in partnership with the Macau Bookworms Association, IPOR-Instituto Português do Oriente, Orient Foundation and the Consulate General of Portugal in Macau and Hong Kong.
The “Portuguese Letters” date from 1664 and were attributed to Mariana Alcoforado, a nun from the Convent of Beja, who wrote them to De Chamilly, a French soldier who fought for Portugal in the War of Restoration.
It is a document of exacerbated romanticism, the result of an absolute passion and dedication, which deserved comments from writers such as Stendhal and Rousseau. Perhaps this is why it has become a masterpiece of universal literature and was consecrated as a testimony of profound love. Despite its classicism, it has aroused great interest in the field of arts: theatre, cinema and opera.
In order to expose this great literary work, the following speakers were invited to participate in the session: Victor Correia (Lisbon, via zoom) with the theme "As Cartas Portuguesas – To love in Portuguese and in the feminine"; Leonor Diaz de Seabra (in person at FRC) with "Mariana Alcoforado and her time"; Luciana Barboza (Brazil, via zoom) with "Portuguese letters at play – Emotion on stage"; Myriam Cyr (Canada, via zoom) with "Letters of a Portuguese Nun – Uncovering the Mystery behind a 17th Century Forbidden Love"; João Guilherme Ripper (Brazil, via zoom) with "Compositional procedures in the opera ‘Cartas Portuguesas’"; Shee Va (in person at FRC) with "Letter to a soul mate"; and Lawrence Lei (in person at FRC) with "A perfumed dream".

The session will be held in Portuguese, with simultaneous interpretation into Cantonese.
Admission is free.

官樂怡基金會於四月廿八日星期四下午六時卅分舉辦《橫琴深度合作區法制的對接融與融合》研討會,作為致力於與澳門這一重要合作領域的新周期的一部分。第一場研討會將由橫琴大成律師事務所高級合夥人劉曉紅女士發言,由 C&C律師事務所駐澳門的高級合夥人趙魯先生主持。

佔中國國內生產總值的12% 的粵港澳大灣區(GBA)是中華人民共和國未來發展最具戰略意義的項目。這是一個旨在吸引來自國內以及海外人才、公司和投資的項目,這是作為創新領導者鞏固該地區地位的一個基本方面。

澳門在該項目中發揮著重要作用,這一作用不僅與其作為國際旅遊中心的形象和地位有關,而且最重要的是作為中國與葡語國家之間的平台。

在此背景下,橫琴新設粵澳深度合作區,標誌著澳門特區在粵港澳大灣區建設進程中的作用有了質的飛躍。擁有超過一億人口的市場和發展的實體空間(橫琴),這是澳門擴大和鞏固區域棋局的絕佳機會,使該地區朝著渴望的經濟多元化發展。

鑑於商業和投資的潛力,了解哪種法律制度最適合實現這些目標非常重要。澳門法會擴展到橫琴嗎?還是中國法律會繼續有效?

由於橫琴是澳門特別行政區融入大灣區項目的一部分,因此承認兩個法律體系的交匯點會很有趣。這官樂怡基金會定期組織的系列專題研討會的宗旨,旨在拓寬思考,為橫琴未來法制建設貢獻力量。

研討會將以普通話進行,並提供葡萄牙語和粵語同聲傳譯。

入場免費,因應地方當局實施的健康建議 人數有所限制。

The Rui Cunha Foundation presents on Thursday, April 28 at 6:30pm, the conference “Convergence and Integration of Legal Systems in Hengqin Deep Cooperation Zone”, as part of a new cycle dedicated to this important area of cooperation with Macau. The first session will be attended by Ms. Lio Xiaohong, Senior Partner at Dentons, a law firm in Hengqin. Moderating the conversation will be Mr. Zhao Lu, Senior Partner at C&C Lawyers, in Macau.

The Greater Bay Area of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau (GBA) is one of the most strategic projects for the future development of the People’s Republic of China, which alone accounts for 12% of China’s gross domestic product. This is a project that aims to attract talent, companies and investment from other regions of China, but also from abroad, a fundamental aspect to cement the region’s status as a leader in innovation.

Macau has a fundamental role in the project, a role that is associated not only with its profile and status as an international tourism center, but above all as a platform between China and Portuguese-speaking countries.

In this context, the newly created Deep Cooperation Zone between Guangdong and Macau in Hengqin signals a qualitative leap of the MSAR’s role in the construction process of the Greater Bay. With a market of more than 100 million people and physical space to grow (Hengqin), this is a fantastic opportunity for Macau to expand and consolidate in the regional arena, catapulting the territory towards the much-desired economic diversification.

Given the potential for business and investments, it is important to understand which legal system is best suited to accomplish those objectives. Will Macau Law expand to HengQin? Or will the Chinese Law remain in force?

As HengQin is part of a project to integrate the Macau Special Administrative Region into the Greater Bay Area, it will be interesting to acknowledge the points of convergence in both legal systems. This is the motto for the series of thematic conferences that Rui Cunha Foundation aims to organize periodically, in order to broaden the reflection and to contribute for the construction of the future legal system in HengQin.

The conference will be held in Mandarin, with simultaneous interpretation into Portuguese and Cantonese.

Admission is free, subject to room capacity.

The Rui Cunha Foundation and the Macau Portuguese School (EPM) present on Friday, April 29 at 3:00pm, one of their most emblematic projects: the program Let’s Get Justice – VIII Edition, a high-school mock court trial dedicated in 2022 to the theme of “Corruption”.

The students, previously selected by EPM, were entrusted with a mock case to solve, through the construction of character roles, submitted evidence and the whole scenario of a real trial.

The Hearing and Judgment Session will be reproduced live by the young participants at the FRC Gallery, under the essential guidance of distinguished Magistrate, Dr. Carlos Carvalho.

The event is public, with free admission, and will be broadcast live via FRC Facebook. The participants shall speak in Portuguese and Cantonese.
