Thanks to the love and support of all the Executive Committee members of the Hong Kong Metals Manufacturers Association, I am honored to be elected as the Chairman the 15th Executive Committee. I am sincerely grateful to all members of the previous Executive Committees for their recognition and support of my services in the Association.   

I would like to express my gratitude to all Permanent Honorary Chairmen, Permanent Honorable Chairmen, Honorable Chairmen, Honorary Chairmen, current Honorary Chairmen and consultants of the Association for their enthusiastic guidance and support for the Association over the years. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the 12th to 14th Chairman Suen Fai Chuen, Alan for his selfless dedication and efforts to leading the Association through the hard times during the COVID-19 pandemic.   

Over the coming two years, I will continue to lead the members of the 15th Executive Committee to uphold the inherited culture and spirit of the Association and strengthen connections among members. We shall organize various activities and government-funded programmes to expand our business in Mainland China and overseas, as well as strengthen our communications and interactions with relevant government departments in both Mainland China and Hong Kong to reflect the needs of the industry. Through visits and exchanges among members within the industry, we shall share knowledge about the applications of new material, technologies and machineries to improve production efficiency and quality in our industry.

Strong Comeback after Pandemic Despite Difficulties
The COVID-19 pandemic has been raging around the world for more than three years, bringing drastic changes to traditional business modes and consumption patterns. Amid the current global financial and economic downturn, traditional industries must be revamped, modernized, mechanized, automated and go smart to overcome global production and economic challenges. In addition, due to political uncertainties, coupled with the disruptively high aviation and shipping freight previously as well as other factors such as tariffs, the prices of most commodities have remained very high, dragging down global purchasing power and resulting in a serious lack of orders in the manufacturing industry. We must leverage Mainland and overseas resources to seek new opportunities for Hong Kong's manufacturing industry. The Central Government, the Guangdong Provincial Government and the Hong Kong Government have been actively promoting interactions, interconnections and mutual assistance between Hong Kong and other cities in the Greater Bay Area to give full play to their strengths, hoping to take advantage of internal opportunities and bring new business opportunities to the industry.

Caring and Giving Back to Society
With the current economic downturn in Hong Kong, more “aged, young and the disadvantaged groups" people in the society become in need of help. The Association will arrange for members and their young family members to volunteer for social services in various districts, to teach youngsters to cherish, respect and care for the others.

Association and Corporate Inheritance
Inheritance is an issue that any organization must consider, so as the Association. Therefore, the Association's Youth Department have been actively cultivating the young generation of industrialists for their strong sense of responsibilities, to provide the Association with a steady stream of energetic and capable successors with the suggestions of new ideas and new directions.

Upholding the spirit of previous leaderships, the new Executive Committee will open up a new chapter for the Association's future based on its past establishments.


Let's work together to achieve greatness with the enduring spirit of metal manufacturers.
