"Engineering Conference & Historical Corner:

HK Electric 135th Anniversary Engineering Conference Shaping Innovation & Sustainability in Hong Kong with Industry Leaders HK Electric today (16 October) hosted a 135th Anniversary Engineering Conference to celebrate 135 years of powering Hong Kong, marking another significant milestone in the Company’s history.
Themed “When Tradition Meets Technology,” the Conference brought together over 100 industry leaders and partners from the political, business, engineering, and academic sectors to explore the future of innovation, energy transition, and sustainable development."

Oct 10:  3 Generations of a HK Electric Family

3 generations of 1 family have been working for HK Electric for 70 years! 4 members of the Chuang family took a photo together with their staff cards.

Checking out the very interesting Facebook page of HK Electric occasionally - 堅尼地道44號 - I came across this fun human-interest photo story, one of many they like to publish frequently.

It's all in Chin., but there's a "See translation" link at the bottom of posts. Check out their recent Mid-Autumn-related photo story.
