Delegates visited the escalator manufacturing plant The MC Division has successfully organized its China Delegation to Nanjing and Anhui Province in the period 12-16 September 2007, in collaboration with the IMechE Hong Kong Branch and ASME Hong Kong Section. On the day of arrival in Nanjing, the group of delegates led by Ir Alex Leung, Chairman of the MC Division was warmly welcomed by the Jiangsu Association for Science and Technology (JAST). The JAST’s leaders Prof Xu Yaoxin and Mr Zhao Yong Jin, as well as other representatives greeted the group. Ideas were exchanged among the institutions on matters related to the engineering profession and industry in Jiangsu and Hong Kong. The link between JAST and MC Division was enhanced after the interflow.
The Delegation had a very compacted programme and the delegates have visited various plants throughout the trip. The group first visited the lift & escalator manufacturing facility of ANLEV. The lift testing tower was inspected in addition to the visit to the escalator manufacturing plant. It was followed by a visit to the air-conditioning equipment plant CANATAL. The management of the two plants presented special features of their products which attracted the interest of the delegates.
The group then visited a commercial and domestic water heater manufacturing plant of AO Smith. Engineers of the plant led the group in walking through their production line, and explaining the characteristics of their products.
The delegates have also visited a water supply plant (Hua Yan Water) and a gas company (Bauhinia), which the Hong Kong & China Gas Co Ltd is a key shareholder. The management of the plants greeted the group and presented the operation of the plant and the company. The synergy of cooperation between the enterprises in Hong Kong and the local Mainland entities was revealed.
Lastly the group visited a raw copper plant in Tongling of Anhui Province. The manager of the plant delivered a thorough presentation about the organization, operation and financial aspects of the plant. The delegates also visited the plant and were impressed by its scale of operation. At the end of the visit, our Chairman Ir Alex Leung was interviewed by the local Mainland mass media on the purpose and result of the Delegation trip. The response is positive and it is hoped that more interflow between the engineering profession from Hong Kong and the learned societies, companies and plants in the Mainland could be arranged.
