our International Membership in 

determining what is successful in 

creating membership growth, 

membership retention, and the extent 

and depth of our professional 

qualification programmes 

(b) Membership and Education 

(M&E) 

3-tier professional qualification 

structure 

A meeting of the M&E Committee and 

a workshop on Professional 

Development was held on 7 November 

to discuss important issues. One of 

them is the agreement to develop the 

standards for the Advanced Diploma 

programme. CILT HK took pride in its 

quality programmes and found itself 

most pleased in helping CILT 

International in this aspect and 

completing the long awaited 3-tier 

professional qualification structure for 

CILT International. M&E recommended 

that the names of the 3-tier 

programmes should be: 

(i) CILT certificate in logistics and 

transport; 

(ii) CILT Diploma in logistics and 

transport; and 

(iii) CILT Advanced Diploma in logistics 

and transport. 

Satisfactory completion of (i) and (ii) will 

lead to a MILT and (iii) will lead to a 

CMILT. 

With the completion of the standards 

for the 3-tier programmes, CILT 

International will have its previous 

Professional Qualifying Examinations 

restored to provide both logistics and 

transport elements in the new 

qualification framework. 

Criteria and process for MILT 

The M&E Committee recommended 

and the Council agreed to reduce the 

work experience requirement from 

3 to 2 years for holders of an 

accredited degree to achieve MILT 

status. 

Review of Fellowship 

There was a thorough examination on 

the current Fellowship granting 

arrangement both for membership 

upgrade and for direct entry. There 

was a general consensus that 

Fellowships should be granted 

sparingly and perhaps should not 

exceed 10% of the total 

membership. There may not need 

to be a direct link between holding 

a CMILT and becoming a Fellow but 

direct entry should be given lesser 

priority. It was important that the 

person awarded a Fellowship 

should already be contributing to 

the interest of the Institute prior to 

nomination and there should not 

be any doubt to in his/her 

contribution to the industry. There was 

a new emphasis that the person 

should take the lead in continuing 

professional development (CPD). 

However, the routes for fellowship by 

direct entry needs further review and 

National Councils were invited to 

submit their views to CILT International 

by end January 2005. 

CPD and additional designation 

At the Interim Management Committee 

meeting held in Hong Kong in July 

2004, an idea for an international 

specialist was raised to give recognition 

to chartered members who are experts 

in certain fields. The Council approved 

in principle that the scheme should be 

pursued in connection with CPD and 

the Management Committee will 

consider how to pursue this and 

develop an action plan. It was 

emphasized that the additional 

designation is not a new level of 

membership and would not undermine 

chartered membership but would 

instead promote professional 

development. The Management 

Committee was charged with 

developing a proposal for 

implementation. 

CILT Education, Training and 

Professional Development Review 

9 countries have responded to an 

earlier questionnaire issued by the 

Director of Professional Development. 

The result showed that some 

countries have a more developed 

education/professional framework 

than others. Actions that required 

immediate rectification include 

granting mutual recognition to CILT 

qualifications among countries and 

providing standards on the diplomas 

to complete the professional 

qualification framework. 

Accreditation of university 

programmes and training providers 

was a common practice and a copy of 

the accreditation manual was 

considered at the Council Meeting.

Zealand, Malta and Thailand have 

indicated their interest in holding the 

2006 ICM. 

Annual Dinner and Ball 2004 

"A Great Success" was the verdict of the members and their 

guests attending the 2004 Annual Dinner and Ball held this year 

at the Marriott Hotel, Admiralty, with over 300 guests from the 

Transport and Logistics industry. The pre-dinner cocktail reception 

gave everyone a chance to renew old acquaintances, meet new 

friends and get in the mood for the evening's festivities. 

This year, the winner of The Transport and Logistics Award 2004 

are The Hongkong International Terminals Limited and a trophy 

was presented at the event for their success in being the largest 

port operator in Hong Kong, offering employment opportunities 

and substantial contribution to the industry while continual 

commitment to technological innovation & environment 

protection and enhancing the international recognition of Hong 

Kong. 

Four Fellowship Certificates were also presented to Mr. C K Chow, 

Chief Executive Officer of MTR Corporation, Ms Miriam Lau, 

Legislative Councillor (Transport Constituency), Mr. Kenneth 

Pang, General Manager of Western Harbour Tunnel Co., Ltd & the 

Hon. Treasurer of CILT in Hong Kong and Mr. Tsang Wing Hang, 

Head of Business and Strategic Development of New World First 

Bus Services Ltd, & a Council Member of the CILT in Hong Kong for 

acknowledgement of their enthusiasm for the industry and the 

Institute in particular. 

Hosting the event was our president; Mr. KY Leung, who in 

his speech, expressed gratitude for the presence of Dr. The Honorable 

Sarah Liao Sau-tung, Secretary for the Environment, Transport and 

Works, as our Guest of Honour. Last but not 

least, the Annual Dinner and Ball 2004 

could not have been as successful without 

the hard work of the organizing 

committee chaired by Mrs. Miranda Leung, 

Council member of the CILT in Hong Kong, 

and the support of our sponsors.

Transport and Logistics Award 2004 

Guiding Principles 

HIT does much more than simply lift 

containers. We are continually faced with 

several challenges: How do we compete by 

offering differentiated and superior 

service How do we develop responsibly 

within our community and the 

environment How do we maximize and 

innovate under limited resources How do 

we replicate globally To achieve these 

goals, we believe nothing is more 

important than organizing ourselves 

around a few simple, time-tested, and 

actionable principles: 

1)Innovate relentlessly in everything we do 

2)Lead the industry with the best services 

3)Minimize our footprint in the 

environment 

4)Hire and train the best people to spread 

these principles globally 

Changing with the times 

Back in 1995, the market growth of our 

industry was 13.6 percent. HIT was faced 

with a dilemma of the need to innovate or 

face the consequences. Lacking the land 

needed to expand operations, HIT had to 

sharpen its competitiveness to preserve its 

market share. Recognizing the importance 

of self-preservation and the strategic 

significance of the container terminal sector 

to the livelihood of hundreds of thousands 

of people in Hong Kong, we decided to 

re-invent our core terminal operating system. 

The result of this effort was the Productivity 

Plus Program (3P). 3P embedded 

unprecedented intelligence into our daily 

operations and created additional capacity 

without using additional land. HIT 

invested over HK$ 1.5 billion implementing 

this mission-critical system and was 

recognized with the Computerworld 

Smithsonian Award in 1997. Determined 

not to rest on our laurels, we continue to 

strive for excellence in everything we do. 

Innovate and Grow Without 

Sacrificing the Environment 

3P is the Green innovation platform for HIT 

• HIT is the world's first terminal to operate 

electric Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes 

• HIT is the first operator to stack 

containers six high. Using sophisticated 

operations research and planning 

algorithms, we successfully reduced 

unproductive shuffling of containers. 

We pioneered contactless swipe Tractor 

Identification (TID) Cards to speed up 

container processing and to eliminate 

traffic congestion in Kwai Chung. 

• We deployed the internal truck 

deployment system, ITDS, and computer 

simulation to optimize the truck 

scheduling and thus their utilization. 

• Further reducing the impact of traffic on 

local roadways, we installed specialized 

rail-mounted jib cranes to encourage 

river barges to bring cargo to HIT. 

HIT has also provided an exceptional level of 

service for our customers. The most 

important indicators for our customers, the 

gross quay crane rate and vessel turnaround 

time, have improved by 45% and 30% 

respectively. This level of productivity has 

enabled us to launch new services previously 

impossible. HIT is able to simultaneously 

provide direct ship-to-ship container 

transfer service across more than five vessels 

for the same customer. According 

to shipping line executives, HIT 

is considered a 'catch-up' 

port, enabling shipping 

lines to make up lost time 

in a highly time-sensitive 

industry. 

Promoting the 

Knowledge-based 

economy 

HIT also is a considerable 

force in the growth of 

Hong Kong's local 

knowledge-based 

Presentation of The TLA Award 2004 (from left to right):

International Terminals, Dr. Dorothy T.F. Chan - Vice

economy. In developing HIT's cutting-edge 

terminal management system, it was HIT 

scientists who wrote the algorithms and 

mathematical formulae, with highly-trained 

HIT engineers who supported the project 

through hardware integration and 

implementation. Whether using satellites to 

manage the inventory of containers at the 

terminal or uniting the local industry with 

applications such as the Truckers 

Identification (TID) cards, HIT produces worldclass 

solutions. The solutions and systems 

developed by HIT are exported to HPH ports 

in over 17 countries around the globe. 

To ensure we continue to grow, HIT actively 

encourages our in-house development 

teams to take on the new challenges. This 

culture of continual improvement has been 

a key driving force behind the company's 

expansion worldwide. 

Back To Our Roots 

Hong Kong is the place we call home. In 

addition to grooming the industry's future 

leaders, we also are mindful of our social 

commitment. Whether throwing our 

support behind Community Chest or 

promoting local education initiatives 

through our Dock Schools, we strive to 

improve on the livelihood of fellow 

residents of Hong Kong. 

As the company pushes the frontiers 

further and further, we constantly remind 

ourselves of the strong, irreplaceable Hong 

Kong heritage which has helped build the 

company. 

Collectively and individually, We move the 

World.


From the Chairman of the Education and Training Committee - Ho Shiu-fai 

With the introduction of the Member (MILT) membership grade 

this year, the local Professional Qualifying Examination (PQE) for 

transport and logistics practitioners to qualify as members with 

professional recognition worldwide, has now been revised into 

the following two-level structure, with the subjects remaining 

unchanged, to provide a progression route for this category of 

members to qualify for Chartered membership. 

Structure of the 2005 Professional Qualifying 

Examination 

Advanced Level Examination Subjects 

Transport Management Stream 

• Transport Policy and Planning 

• Transport Systems and

Ma On Shan Railway 

In October, a seminar was held on the topic 

of the "Ma On Shan Railway". The Speaker 

was Ir. Tam Yau Kay, Thomas, Project 

Manager of the Ma On Shan Rail for 

Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation. 

Ma On Shan Railway will be the fourth 

operational line of the Kowloon-Canton 

Railway Corporation. Upon opening, this 

line will serve the growing population of 

684,000 in its catchment area of Shatin 

and Ma On Shan. Through providing a 

Site visit of the Ma On Shan Rail 

safe, fast and reliable service to link 

Ma On Shan to the existing East 

Rail network, this railway is 

expected to generate over 200, 

000 interchanging passengers at 

Tai Wai each day, rising to more 

than 300,000 in 2011. Provisions 

have been made to allow the 

railway to extend further south to 

connect the new strategic railway 

corridor, Shatin Central Link. This 

railway will not only serve the 

communities in Shatin and Ma On Shan 

but will be part of the environmentally 

friendly transport to tackle the 

deteriorating air quality in Hong Kong. The 

seminar was a success with over 20 

participants. 

A site visit was organized following the 

seminar on the topic of the "Ma On Shan 

Rail" and it was once again a great 

opportunity for our members to gain

Inauguration Ceremony, 

18 October 2004 

The official inauguration ceremony of the Young Members 

Committee (YMC) was successfully held on 18th October 2004 at 

the CILTHK Wanchai Office. Witnessed by senior members of our 

Institute, as well as representatives from Local Tertiary Institutes, 

committee members of YMC have demonstrated their 

commitment to devote themselves to the future success of the 

Committee 

The ceremony, besides formally signifying the commencement of 

the operation of the YMC, has illustrated the Institute's 

commitment to developing young professionals for Local 

transport and logistics industries. 

We would like to show our deep gratitude to Mr. K.Y. Leung, 

President of CILTHK, for the delivery of a meaningful speech 

about the long term vision and expectation of the YMC. 

We promise that 

the YMC will 

achieve its mission 

and objectives in 

promoting the 

CILTHK and the 

logistics industry 

among the youth 

and develop 

young 

professionals. 

Visit to Tertiary Institutions, 

October 2004 

In order to promote 

CILTHK and the 

logistics industry 

among the youth in 

our community, 

committee members 

of the YMC carried 

out visits to local 

tertiary institutions 

including The City 

University of Hong 

Kong, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong Baptist 

University, Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education and the 

School of Professional and Continuing Education of The 

University of Hong Kong. 

Presentations was given to potential students who are interested 

in the logistics industries, to introduce and explain the origin and 

professionalism of CILTHK, as well as the Institute's chartering 

system Students are encouraged and recommended to apply for 

the student membership of CILTHK and join the activities 

organized by the YMC to further understand the transport and 

logistics industry. 

Numbers of response have already been received from the 

ground for the application of student membership, we believe 

this is a strong encouragement for the future development of the 

YMC 

Visit to MTR Control Centre, 


Thank of the support from the MTR Corporation, the first event 

of the YMC was successfully held as a firm visit to the MTR 

operation control centre located in Tsing Yi. 

35 participants from various tertiary institutes joined this first 

event. During the visit, MTR provided a seminar room, where our 

participants appreciated a short movie which digested the past 

development and future plans of the company. 

We were also given a chance to view the operations of the 

control centre and simulation system of the MTR - a system which 

overviews and controls all the activities of train operations of the 

whole MTR network. Detailed explanations were been given by 

an MTR representative which allowed our participants to 

appreciate the details of the 

control system's operational 

issues as well as the managing 

philosophy behind it. 

Seminar on 'What will you be after 10 years', 


YMC's first seminar was successfully held on 26th October 2004. 

We were glad to invite Mr. C.K. Lam, our advisor on the Young 

Members Committee, who is also the Quality Assurance Services 

Manager of Cathay Pacific Airways Limited to be our honorable 

speaker at this event 

More than 30 participants joined this seminar. Throughout the talk, 

Mr. C.K. Lam shared his acquaintance and experience with our 

young members on how to plan their own careers, methods to 

achieve goals, techniques to strike for the best and how to deal 

with difficult situations. Active responses from the ground has 

shown that the seminar was attractive and meaningful. 

We are please to see that this seminar can really provide our 

young members with a chance to learn from highly experienced 

professionals in the local transport field. We will continue to hold 

this kind of event 

which directs us to 

the goal of 

promoting and 

cultivating young 

professionals for 

the local logistics 

industry.

Visit to the fresh food Distribution Centre of Park N' Shop, 

13 November 2004 

We would like to thank Part N' Shop for 

giving us a chance to visit their fresh food 

distribution centre in Sheung Shui. On the 

morning of 13th November, 2004, about 40 

student members of the Institute gathered at 

Park N' Shop's fresh food distribution centre 

to see how the warehouse is set up and its 

internal facilities. 

Before visiting the hardware infrastructure, 

we were accommodated in the conference 

room of the warehouse, where 

representatives of Part N' Shop explained the 

company's development and current 

operational strategy. After the briefing, we 

were coached by the senior managements of 

the distribution centre to view various 

operation units inside the centre including 

meat processing, packaging machine, food 

processing and frozen food storage. 

The visit was meaningful to our participants 

by allowing us to appreciate the 

complicated logistics system involved in a 

local retail industry and also the dynamic 

logistics strategy employed by Park N' Shop, 

which raised the interest of our participants 

to join the logistics industry after 

graduation
