The University is deeply saddened by the passing of former US president and HKBU Honorary Doctorate recipient Dr Jimmy Carter on 29 December 2024 at the age of 100.

Since relinquishing the presidency, Dr Carter’s public works have continued unabated. In partnership with Emory University, he established The Carter Center (TCC) which, in his words, is about “helping people achieve better opportunities and watching hope take root where it languished before.” In 2011, HKBU officially started a joint venture with TCC, namely The Carter Center – Hong Kong Baptist University Initiative (TCC – HKBUI). The very first institutional tie established by TCC outside the US, the new initiative drew together the strengths and expertise of both institutions to spearhead a range of collaborative projects in educational, social and humanitarian areas for the advancement of society.

In recognition of Dr Carter’s remarkable achievements in bringing about meaningful change in society and the betterment of mankind in his post-presidency era, the University conferred the degree of Doctor of Humanities, honoris causa, on Dr Carter when he came to Hong Kong for TCC-HKBUI’s Commencement.

The University community would like to convey our heartfelt condolences to the Carter family at this time of bereavement. Dr Carter will always be remembered for his whole-hearted, significant contributions to the world as well as his enrichment of human well-being, and as a beloved and revered member of the HKBU community.

His legacy is characterised by his unwavering commitment to advancing scientific knowledge, leaving an indelible mark on the world and continuing to inspire future generations of scientists to pursue excellence.

The University is deeply saddened by the passing of Dr the Honourable Lee Shau-kee, our esteemed Honorary Doctorate, who left us at the age of 97.

Dr Lee, founder of Henderson Land Development Company Limited and Lee Shau Kee Foundation Limited, was a highly respected figure in the Greater China Region. Renowned for his exceptional business leadership and acumen, he was equally admired for his generous and visionary philanthropy.

As one of the foremost real estate tycoons in the Greater China Region, Dr Lee made significant contributions to the region’s economic prosperity and helped place Hong Kong firmly in the international arena as the home of world-class entrepreneurs. With unmatched business intuition and entrepreneurial skills, he ventured into diversified business opportunities, building an impressive portfolio that spanned hotels, tourism, public utilities, and healthcare.

Dr Lee was widely celebrated for his philanthropic endeavours and staunch commitment to education and nurturing talent. For decades, the Lee Shau Kee Foundation has offered scholarships and donations to schools and universities in Hong Kong, the Mainland and abroad, contributing billions of dollars to education institutions around the world.

Since 1983, Dr Lee generously supported various initiatives at HKBU, enabling the University’s research and education development to thrive. In 2019, HKBU received a HK$100 million donation from Dr Lee, through the Lee Shau Kee Foundation, to support the University’s strategic development, particularly the research cluster of creative media and practice.

Dr Lee’s legacy is characterised by his strong leadership, exemplary conduct, and unwavering dedication to charity. The profound impact he made on Hong Kong and its people will continue to inspire future generations.

The University community extends our heartfelt condolences to Dr Lee’s family at this time of bereavement. He will always be remembered for his wholehearted support and contribution to the development of HKBU, and as a beloved and respected member of the HKBU community.
