Deputy Secretary for Justice Cheung Kwok-kwan will lead a 30-strong delegation comprising Hong Kong legal professionals to Bangkok on March 15 to strengthen ties with the legal sector in Thailand.

His visit also aims to promote Hong Kong's unique strengths and consolidate its leading position as a centre for international legal and dispute resolution services in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.

Mr Cheung will attend the "Resolve2Win - Legal Services of Hong Kong, Opportunities for All" campaign co-organised by the Department of Justice and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council.

He will speak at the event to promote Hong Kong's legal and dispute resolution services, including the "Mediate First" Pledge campaign, which will be the first time the pledge is promoted overseas.

Mr Cheung and the delegation will return to Hong Kong on March 17.
