I'm pleased to share leadership transition developments within our Federation.
After many groundbreaking years of dedicated service, Ms. Belinda Yeung, JP is embarking on a well-deserved new chapter. It is with mixed feelings that I inform you of Ms. Yeung's well-deserved retirement from her role as 1st Vice Chairman of our Federation, effective July 16th.
At our Executive Committee meeting on June 27th, we passed the decision to appoint Ms Yeung as Honorary Life Vice President in recognition of her tremendous contributions and leadership. Her invaluable experience established strong foundations for our continued success. We look forward to her ongoing counsel in her new honorary capacity.
Belinda has been a pillar of our Federation, leading many crucial advocacy efforts that have moved our partnership with the government and stakeholders to new heights. Her wealth of expertise, tireless dedication and passion for our trade’s success are unmatched.
In light of this transition, Mr. Raymond Chow, JP and Ms. Yvonne Lo have graciously agreed to step in on an acting basis as 1st and 2nd Vice Chairmen respectively for the remaining of this term. We are confident their transition will be seamless and continue propelling our Federation forward.
Please help me extend our collective gratitude to Ms. Belinda Yeung for her momentous contributions.
