HONOLULU, Hawaii — Honolulu's Chinese community marked the 160th anniversary of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's birth on November 8.

The United Chinese Society of Hawaii joined with the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Hawaii Foundation and the Chinese Chamber of Commerce of Hawaii to co-host the commemoration.

Dr. Sun had deep ties to Hawaii: he studied and lived in Honolulu in his early years, and the city still preserves historic sites connected to him. The local Chinese community commemorates his birth in various forms every year.

Robert Yu, president of the United Chinese Society, said in the society's newsletter that this year's commemoration is one of the society's major annual events, with details to be announced by the co-hosting organizations.
