| The
next few years look set to pose some major and exciting
challenges for the HKCEC. New competition is on the horizon,
and that means increasing choice for exhibition customers.
It's therefore essential that we ensure the Centre's services
and facilities consistently remain the very best available.
At the same time, we are confident that government approval
for the expansion of Halls 1 and 2 will soon be obtained,
following which the Centre will go through a period of
major planning and construction. Faced with these twin
challenges, the HKCEC has enhanced its senior management
structure. Our aim in doing this is to make sure the complex
changes ahead are handled with the very highest levels
of efficiency, attention to detail, and security.
The Centre is operated by Hong Kong Convention and
Exhibition Centre (Management) Limited (HML). As part
of the reorganisation, HML has appointed a second Deputy
Managing Director, Mr David Ieong, who now works alongside
existing Deputy Managing Director Miss Joanne Davis.
Mr Ieong, who moves up after six years as the HKCEC's
Director of F&B, is specifically involved in directing
day-to-day operations including event planning, security
and access. By doubling our Deputy Managing Director
personnel, we are aiming to improve operational efficiency
and raise the levels of service we can offer our customers.
With David Ieong's promotion from the Centre's F&B
operations, Maurice Kong has been appointed our new
Director of F&B. Mr Kong has been at the HKCEC since
2002, and before that spent several years working for
Hyatt Hotels and the Mandarin Oriental Group. He is
renowned for his creativity and his commitment to ongoing
improvement.
HML has also enhanced its security operations with
the appointment of a new Security and Venue Operations
Manager, Mr Eden Lui. Mr Lui is a veteran of the HKCEC
with 11 years service, and will take charge of all safety
and security issues relating to events at the Centre,
overseeing the Centre's team of full-time General Security
staff. Another related management improvement has been
the appointment by General Security of a new senior
security management representative. He is Mr Edmund
Leung, with over 20 years experience in the security
industry, including 18 years with the ICAC.
