Let’s all give our big hands to our alumni – Mr Peter Woo Kwong-ching – who has just been awarded the prestiged Grand Bauhinia Medal (GBM)!
Mr Woo is awarded the GBM in recognition of his long and distinguished public service, particularly
his significant contribution to trade promotion and the medical and health services. As the Chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, Mr Woo successfully led the Council’s management through major reforms to improve accountability and transparency, and its responsiveness to the needs of enterprises of all sizes. During his tenure as Chairman of the Hospital Authority, he also demonstrated excellent leadership in steering the Authority to transform its management culture and structure, and to reorganise and rationalise clinical services to the current cluster based model which has served to improve patient access.
