[Fostering Enviro-Sustainability] [Engaging Stakeholders] [Building Mega Projects]

We will continue our commitment to develop our operations in a sustainable manner and strike a balance between environmental, social and economic concerns. The following major initiatives will be our focal areas in our 2007 sustainability and corporate responsibility works.

Fostering Enviro-Sustainability

[260es(6418)_gri_after.jpg]

Following a decade of environmental works, we will continue to integrate green initiatives into our operations and to influence our stakeholders. We will demonstrate our commitment to the Clean Air Charter through various projects such as green roofing for public buildings and facilities. Apart from government departments, we will extend our technical advisory services in building energy efficiency to subvented organisations. We will carry on being the pioneer in environmental conservation in Hong Kong.

Engaging Stakeholders

To stimulate a more effective engagement with our key stakeholders, our facilitating tools will be upgraded in 2007. Following the consultancy review in 2006, we will streamline and optimise our Client Satisfaction Survey resulting in strengthened motivation of experience sharing and quality improvement. Post occupancy evaluation will continue to improve offering a win-win situation for both the building users and our department.

Building Mega Projects

2007 will be the milestone of two of our mega projects: the completion of the boundary-crossing facilities at the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Western Corridor (Western Corridor) under the "co-location" arrangement and the commencement of the Tamar Development project. Both the HKSAR Government and the Shenzhen Municipal People's Government are working with the construction of the new control point to commission the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Western Corridor in 2007, which will facilitate further trading activities in the Pearl River Delta area. Tenders for the Tamar Development project, which is under design and build arrangement, were invited in September 2006. The Tamar Development project will create significant employment opportunities for the local construction industry. Both projects will promote overall regional economic development.
