Updated at 6.04pm: The Hong Kong Museum of History will hold a forum on Friday to gauge views on the proposed Dr Sun Yat-sen Museum, a government spokesman said on Thursday.
He said they would discuss the name, exhibition contents, facilities and services of the new museum.
The spokesman said the Dr Sun Yat-sen Museum would be housed at Kom Tong Hall - a historic building at 7 Castle Road in Central. It was expected to open in early 2007.
Renovation work was due to start in September and scheduled for completion in December 2006, the spokesman said.
