PK's Message on Reciprocal Recognition Agreement SOEHKR and HKI
08 October 2008
Reciprocal Recognition Agreement Between Society of Operation Engineers And Hong Kong Institution of Engineers Is To Redefine Hong Kong’s Engineering Landscape By P.K. Chan, Chair of M&PS (HKR) There is no doubt about the fact that the success of any society largely depends on its leaders and other incumbents. The same philosophy applies on to the Society of Operation Engineers - Hong Kong Region (SOEHKR) as well and its success has been largely depended on the proficient leadership of Professor Edmund Chuk. Hong Kong is a challenging landscape not only for normal businesses, but also for not-for-profit societies such as SOEHKR. There is a stiff competition among all types of societies to gain new members while retaining the existing ones. The SOEHKR has faced this challenge with great success so far. Being the Chair of Membership Committee, it is no easy job to deal with competition on increasing the new memberships while retaining the existing members in tact. Knowing the strategic importance of making strategic alliances, a series of hectic negotiations have been made with Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) to engage onto a Reciprocal Recognition Agreement (RRA). Under the guidance of Professor Edmund Chuk, my team comprised with Ir Prof Louis Lock, Mr. Jeffrey Yung Mr. Eric Fung, Mr. K C Lau and Mr. Simon Tsui have worked very hard in various occasions to make the roadmap for the RRA. The valuable inputs from our Head Office, SOEUK were of great use in this regards. The RRA is expected to be signed in a ceremony on October 2008 and this RRA is sure to bring ample opportunities and establish new synergies to both SOEHK and HKIE in the years to come. 　 Enquiry: members@soe.org.hk Tel: (852) 3188 0062

Degree of Success

Thursday, 09 October 2007

In today's highly competitive business world, the right university degree can make or break your career, particularly in Hong Kong.

In recent years, UK-based universities have become keen competition for local institutions, largely because of their heavily funded research bases. "There's a clear need for UK qualifications when it comes to tertiary education," says Edmund Chuk, professor at INTI College Hong Kong.

INTI is a listed company on the Bursa Malaysia (Malaysian exchange), which collaborates with Hong Kong- and Singapore-based private tertiary education provider Swastika Education Foundation Ltd to manage a UK BA (Hons) Business Administration degree programme.

The programme was launched four years ago in Hong Kong. "When Swastika undertook the responsibility to manage INTI College Hong Kong, I already foresaw the market potential for top-up bachelor programmes here. Top-up degrees are an interesting concept and their success is largely dependent on how the concept is marketed," explains Dr Chuk.

Varied curriculum

The comprehensive programme covers practical modules such as international business, marketing communications, business research and strategic management. Students must complete a dissertation as part of the degree requirements. These reflect current business practices in Hong Kong and elsewhere; and assessments are based on practical work, including case-study analyses, research on recent business practices and presentations.

"The advanced curriculum is designed to help local students understand modern trends in both the international and local business arenas," Dr Chuk remarks.

Swastika's academic team has a sound understanding of contemporary market trends in various disciplines and applies this knowledge to the programme, Which balances assignments and exams so that student can gain knowledge without being subjected to heavy study loads. The aim is for students to be able to use the knowledge they gain in the job market.

"The other key feature is that we closely monitor our students' progress and offer help whenever they need assistance," Dr Chuk adds.

The degree programme is geared towards a range of target groups. "We mainly focus on those with higher diplomas, advanced diplomas or associate degrees, while also welcoming people with substantial work experience in business and management capacities," explains Dr Chuk. The programme also welcomes students with Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination (HKCEE) and HKAL qualifications.

One of the major reasons for launching the top-up degree programme was to assist Hong Kong's working adults to continue their higher education in a more practical and realistic way. "For a number of reasons, many people do not continue their education after high school and end up in the workplace, only to realise after some time that they have to upgrade their qualifications to remain competitive. Our top-up BA degree helps to address this need," Dr Chuk remarks.

Transcending barriers

The degree programme has gained popularity among foreign students from countries such as Pakistan and Indonesia wanting to broaden their knowledge in the business administration field.

The programme's entire curriculum falls under the supervision of Coventry University in the UK. The university, established in 1843, focuses strongly on quality with regular assessments by external examiners from other reputable UK universities.

In addition to the guidance by Coventry University, Swastika employs highly qualified lecturers to run the programme. The staff and lecturers at INTI College Hong Kong are dedicated to their students and aim to provide a holistic academic experience in which students are encouraged to grow personally and professionally," stresses Dr Chuk.

The education institution is equipped with a full range of facilities, including an e-library, which is a great asset to the programme.

In short, the programme concentrates on imparting knowledge that can be applied and practiced in modern businesses. "Candidates who are looking for career changes, expecting promotions or even looking for a job for the first time could greatly benefit from the programme," Dr Chuk concludes. Si

我會首次組織大陸、港澳臺區高級會員與新疆機械工程學會聯誼 —— 充滿溫馨、快樂的新疆聯誼活動

21-25 August 2007

(以下報導摘自 http://www.cmes.org/cmes/ftp/huiyuan/xinjilianyi.html ) 　　

一年一地，精心組織，熱情接待，周到服務，每次都給高級會員留下深刻印象的高級會員聯誼活動，今年是在新疆舉行，有來自全國7個省市的大陸高級會員、以及由九屆理事、港澳臺區特派專員祝賴源帶隊的香港地區高級會員共計二十餘人參加。　　

六天的新疆之行，使會員們領略了：天池那清澈湖水，皚皚雪峰和蔥蘢挺拔的雲松林；達阪城風力發電站的壯觀；美麗神秘的五彩城、《火焰山》這一綿延近100公里的赤砂岩、庫姆塔格沙山公園這被認為是“離城市最近的沙漠”的奇特景觀；特別是參觀了被聯合國教科文組織列為世界文化遺產的“高昌古城”、中國古代三大水利工程之一的《坎爾井》後會員更深深地感到新疆歷史的悠久、地域的遼闊、美麗、壯觀、綠色、環保。　　

六天的行程中，會員們用歡快的歌聲驅散了旅途的疲勞，老中青齊上陣，中文歌、俄語歌、粵語歌、兒童歌、京劇清唱等每天都是一台別具風格的演唱會，由此密切了會員之間的關係，交換名片、交流資訊，介紹發展會員，每個人都置身於和諧、友愛、互助的集體之中，彼此建立真誠的友誼與信任，為創建和諧社團起到了不可替代的作用。

8月26日晚由大陸、香港高級會員與新疆機械工程學會聯合組織的聯誼會將此次活動推向高潮。聯誼會由新疆機械工程學會副理事長王基友主持。中國機械工程學會組織人事處處長程維勤首先向與會者宣講了：中國機械工程學會的五年發展規劃，並強調指出：今天我們在這裏舉行聯誼活動，也是在貫徹執行五年規劃中“加強會員服務工作”。要不斷完善和強化會員服務體系，創新服務方式，加大服務力度，積極搭建多層次的會員服務平臺，努力實現“會員優先、會員優惠”，體現會員與非會員的區別，營造會員之家。她動情的說：新疆之行讓我們感受最深的是新疆是一個充滿溫馨、充滿生機活力和團結氣氛的大家庭。接著港澳臺區會員工作負責人田原向與會人員介紹了參加活動的港澳臺地區的高級會員，學會理事、港澳臺區特派專員祝賴源教授向與會會員介紹了香港地區會員工作開展情況；他表示很高興有機會參加新疆高級會員聯誼活動，作為學會的理事和英國營運工程師學會香港分部的榮譽會長，一直致力於推進大陸機械工程師與英國和香港地區專業組織的交流與資格互認工作，雖然西出陽關無故人，但是新疆機械工程學會的熱情好客，新疆人的幽默風趣都讓我們感覺到西域的魅力和溫馨。歡迎大家有機會訪問香港，也感謝中國機械工程學會組織了這次活動。

新疆機械工程學會理事長張啟曾代表新疆學會發表了熱情洋溢的講話；他說：此次大陸和香港高級會員的來訪，必將會加深我們之間的聯繫、瞭解和促進相互間更加密切的合作。進一步加深我們的友誼和相互交流、加強優勢互補、拓寬資訊管道，為中國機械工程學會與新疆的經濟協作，構築起新的橋樑。會上每個會員也作了自我介紹，進一步加深了認識與瞭解。會員們第一次親臨現場欣賞了精彩的新疆歌舞，並即興參加了表演。隨後香港營運學會與新疆機械工程學會互贈了禮物使聯誼會在高潮中結束。

此次聯誼活動是學會首次在西部地區組織、首次大陸與港澳臺區地區高級會員共同舉辦、首次與地方學會一起組織科技聯誼會，創新了活動的形式；這樣的環境為每個參加活動的會員提供了一個廣泛交流的機會，為單位之間交流合作奠定了基礎，聯誼活動增進了總會與會員、會員與會員之間的感情聯繫及工作互動。總會工作人員熱情周到的服務，體現了學會是會員之家。

會員參加活動隨筆　　

作為新近入會的高級會員，今年我參加了中國機械學會在2007年8月21～27日在新疆烏魯木齊組織的大陸與港澳臺地區會員的科技交流與聯誼活動，同時領略了新疆的美好風光。　　

這次新疆之行自己感覺收穫頗大，一是對新疆的發展現狀有了切身的認識；二是結交了一些良師益友，大家交流彼此進行的工作情況，為以後進一步交流合作奠定初步基礎；特別是認識了來自香港地區的高級會員，他們謙讓和儒雅作風給我留下深刻印象。（山東大學高級會員襲著燕（15350324））

新疆——我夢牽魂繞的地方

大連大學崔曉東在聯誼會上即興作詩一首

這是我夢裏的地方
這是我魂牽夢繞的新疆
天山的雪水蕩滌在我的魂魄
五彩灣的五色土像維族
姑娘五彩的霓裳

終於我，我們雙腳踏上這片熱土
戈壁、黃沙、綠洲都把生命滋養
我愛上了新疆
這瓜果的集市、歌舞的會場
熱愛生活人們的天堂

此時，我的家鄉已是華燈初上
陽光綠島裏的歡聚才剛剛開場
親愛的朋友們
歌舞敘友情，美酒表衷腸
明天我們就要離開
謝謝了，慷慨的新疆
再見了，大漠、天山
再見了，我熱情似火的新疆
祝福你們今生有幸結相逢
願今夜，只把新疆作故鄉

中國機械工程學會港澳臺區聯絡專員致在四月廿一日聯合聚餐參與嘉賓和會員的感謝信

Monday, 24 April 2006

親愛的與會嘉賓，CMES and SOE會員們：

　　大家好！

　　在四月廿一日，中國機械工程學會與營運工程師學會香港分會，聯合舉辦晚餐聚會，宴開一十六席，中港澳會員濟濟一堂，氣氛異常熱鬧融洽。見證中港澳本是一家。血脈相連。

承蒙何鍾泰議員，樂法成教授在百忙中抽空參與，宋天虎教授和田原秘書專程到港主持會議，程維勤處長塈三十多位國內CMES高級會員，十多位香港汽車修理同業商會和壹佰多位SOE會員熱誠蒞臨指導。在此我謹此向各位致以萬二分由衷的感謝。敬希繼續支持指導。

在四月廿一日，剛剛宣佈港澳臺區聯絡辦事處成立了，這意味著香港澳門台灣區的CMES會員與中國機械工程學會的距離有著明顯的拉近。本人有幸榮獲委任為港澳臺區的聯絡專員，實感惶恐，但既獲我會委以重任，定必鞠躬盡悴，竭盡所能提供服務與港澳臺區會員。

再者，CMES 與SOE會員其實在基礎上有著共同目標，所以本人既任兩會的聯絡會員，定必擔任兩會橋樑，貫徹兩會學術，研究成果，薈萃東西文化交流的責任。在此，請允許我再次對宋教授及中國機械工程學會的熱烈支持而能夠成立港澳臺會員聯絡處，對港澳臺會員的會員關注，表示由衷的感謝！

　　最後，我衷心祝願港澳臺會員身體健康、闔家幸福！無論是我，還是我的會友，都期待在未來能夠提供滿意服務給各位CMES及SOE會員！

祝賴源

2005 SOE Industry Lunch
Monday, 1 November 2005
Arundel House, the headquarters of the International Institute for Strategic Studies, situated on the banks of the Thames in Central London, formed the location for the prestigious 2005 SOE Industry Lunch. The annual lunch, which brings together business contacts and colleagues from other institutes, is also used as a forum to present awards to worthy recipients. This year, Honorary Fellowships were awarded to John Woods IEng and Edmund Chuk CEng. Both Honorary Fellowships were awarded for exemplary work in the field of plant engineering. Edmund Chuk, who has recruited over 800 members for the SOE, travelled all the way from Hong Kong to receive his award. The artificer of the year award was also presented to Staff Sergeant Jonathan Paul Smith from JT NBC Regt QMT, RAF Honington. Each year, around 70 REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers) are selected for Artificer training and to win Artificer of the Year is a huge achievement. Finally, BES member Cliff Carr IEng was awarded the Norman Arnold Salver for long service to the Bureau of Engineer Surveyors. Over 80 guests enjoyed lunch and were addressed by President John Eastman EngTech and SOE Patron John Ratcliff CBE. Enquiry: members@soe.org.hk Tel: (852) 3188 0062
