Dane Cheng to step down as head of Hong Kong Tourism Board in October
NeutralSports

Dane Cheng Ting-yat, the longtime executive director of the Hong Kong Tourism Board, is calling it quits this October when his contract wraps up. After six years at the helm—split into two back-to-back three-year terms—Cheng’s stepping aside, and the board’s already scouting globally for his replacement. Job ads popped up this week, and insiders say Cheng plans to take some well-earned downtime after his tenure.
Editor’s Note: Cheng’s departure marks the end of an era for Hong Kong’s tourism strategy, which has navigated everything from protests to pandemic recovery under his watch. With the board casting a wide net for his successor, it signals a fresh chapter—and possibly a new direction—for a key industry still rebounding from recent challenges. For locals and businesses tied to tourism, this transition could hint at bigger shifts ahead.
