Luncheon Seminar: HK’s Future Capacity

2015.05.14

On 14 May 2015, the Foundation was pleased to have Mr. Franklin Lam, Founder of HKGolden50 invited to share with our members and guests his views on Hong Kong’s future. The outlook of the world in the next 5 – 20 years – will deteriorate from static to miserable as ageing populations and debt overburden most economies and make for ugly politics. Mr. Lam pointed out that Hong Kong, situating at the heart of a growth region, is poised to be a shining star in an increasingly desperate world, with potential to rival London and New York within a decade. But there are three bottlenecks that stand in the way of Hong Kong rising to the promise of its “Golden 50 Years” and Hong Kong must add substantial hard and soft capacity to overcome these hurdles.

Chaired by the Foundation’s Executive Committee Chairman Mr. Ronnie Chan, the seminar was joined by Council Members Ms. Winnie Chiu, Mr. Thomas Woo, Mr. Philip Ma, Mr. Leung Wai-fung, Dr. Raymond Leung, Mr. Frankie Yeung, Mr. Peter Lo, Mr. John Lee, Mr. Kin Yeung, Mr. Lee Yuen-hong, Mr. Anson Chan, Mr. Billy Yung and Mr. Andrew Yu; Executive Director Ms. Karen Tang; guests Mrs. Eva Cheng, Mr. Maurice Leung, Mr. David Chin, Ms. Margaret Ng, Mr. Johnson Kong, Mr. Peter Kung, Mr. Alex Yip, Mr. Alfred Lee, Ms. Linda Choy, Mr. Stephen Wong and Mr. Gordon Kee.
