Q Should there be another Harbour Fest next year?

I think Harbour Fest should continue next year and could be a very successful annual event if the government put more work into the programmes.

As this year's event shows, however, there is lack of communication between the organisers in Hong Kong and the bands.

The government and the organisers could have sorted out the details of the events earlier and made sure that everything was working before they launched the festival.

This event is very beneficial to Hong Kong's economy and also its tourism industry, with many visitors drawn to this event because of the internationally well-known artists. These tourists will come back again and again for years and this event may even become a main feature as a Hong Kong tourist attraction every year.

The organisers could invite different kinds of artists such as Eminem, Backstreet Boys, Ricky Martin and Linkin Park to play so that there will always be diversity.

I hope Harbour Fest can run smoothly in the years to come so that Hong Kong, the Pearl of the Orient, will shine again.
