About SAAHK
Southern African Association of Hong Kong (SAAHK)
The Southern African Association of Hong Kong was founded in 1985 and was originally known as the Blue Crane Club. For more than 35 years it has continued to provide a social, cultural and business centre for Southern Africans residing in Hong Kong.
Membership
Members can take advantage of a range of benefits and join social gatherings that provide opportunities to meet new people and strengthen connections within the Southern African community. These events include casual Mzansi Meetups, special occasions like Heritage Day and Mandela Day, and the annual Rugby Sevens Charity Dinner, where we welcome the South African Sevens Team to Hong Kong.
