RTHK said the programmes – to be broadcast in August and September – will be about key historical events that took place in Hong Kong and Guangdong during the war.
Director of Broadcasting Angelina Kwan signed the memorandum with the head of the network, Chen Jiacheng, in Guangzhou.
Kwan said the two stations had established a cooperative relationship since 2021 and that RTHK has also worked closely with other broadcasters on the mainland.
“Going forward, RTHK will continue to connect with the country and other places and strengthen cross-media multilingual broadcasting,” she said in a statement.
“We will actively promote the integrated development of the SAR and the mainland, especially that with other cities in the Greater Bay Area, and groom a sense of national identity among the public.”
RTHK added that the two stations will also co-produce radio drama shows for the first time.
They’ll be on how Hong Kong residents in the Greater Bay Area interact with people in the rest of the country, demonstrating the residents’ high degree of integration, and be aimed at promoting more exchanges.
Kwan and the RTHK delegation also visited media facilities in Guangzhou as part of the broadcaster’s preparations to televise the National Games to be co-hosted by Guangdong, Macau and Hong Kong in November.
