Hong Kong's secretary for Home Affairs Tsang Tak-sing will depart for Taipei on Friday morning to attend the Fourth Hong Kong-Taiwan Cultural Co-operation Forum, the city's government news website said Thursday.

The first Hong Kong-Taiwan Cultural Co-operation Forum was jointly organized by the Cultural Co-operation Committees of Hong Kong and Taiwan in 2011.

The forum is then held annually and Hong Kong and Taiwan hold the forum in turn. The forum aims to foster interaction within the cultural sector between Hong Kong and Taiwan and promote cooperation in culture, art and creative industries.

During his stay in Taipei, Tsang will also meet Hong Kong representatives joining a youth cultural and creativity camp and visit performing arts groups.

He will return to Hong Kong on Sunday morning.
