HKIE.MMNC Division AGM

The MMNC Division Committee toasting on stage


Mr. Stanley Hui, JP, CEO of AAHK and MMNC Division Committee members and guests



The annual report was delivered by Ir. Michael Cheung Ping Kuen, the Divisional Chairman of the Session 2006-2007. Ir. Cheung mentioned that numerous activities had been organized by the Division throughout the whole session. In addition, the Division aimed at sharing engineering skills and development with the local and the mainland learned societies. In order to establish a closer relationship with mainland China, the Division had participated in a forum held in March this year in Guangzhou. For local events, the Division had already started to establish Special Interest Groups (Automotive Engineering is the promising one) so as to allow interested members to have additional channel and opportunity to promote and develop certain professional segments.

Ir. Alex Leung Wai-Hung was elected as the Chairman of the MMNC Division for the Session 2007-2008, while Ir. Louis Sezto Ka-Shing was elected as the Council Member of the Division. Votes of thanks were delivered to Ir. Cheung and his committee members for their outstanding works in the 2006-2007 Session. The AGM then continued with the speech given by the Incoming Chairman Ir Alex Leung. In his initial plan for the coming session, Ir Leung proposed to foster cooperation with other leaned societies both locally and overseas so as to widen perspectives and involvements in engineering affairs. He also suggested to encourage active participation of young engineers in Divisional affairs, and to establish a positive image of engineers in the society by active participation in community services.

Before the annual dinner, we had much honour to have Mr. Stanley Hui, JP, CEO of Airport Authoirity Hong Kong, to deliver a speech to our members on "Hong Kong International Airport 2025 Master Plan". It was an inspiring and informative talk on the master-planning of the Hong Kong International Airport for the coming 10-20 years. The event was concluded successfully, and both the AGM and the Annual Dinner were finished in a pleasant and enjoyable manner.
