5 QSD Chairman s Message Sr Paul K L Wong Chairman of Quantity Surveying Division The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors QSD Annual Dinner 2016 On behalf of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS) Quantity Surveying Division (QSD), I would like to welcome you all to the HKIS QSD Annual Dinner The HKIS QSD Annual Dinner is an annual event that provides precious time for our members to mingle and meet their learned friends from the surveying profession, other professional institutions, government officials, as well as to make new friends in the construction industry. This evening, it is our pleasure to have Mr. Eric S C Ma, Under Secretary for Development of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as our Guest of Honour. Also in attendance are our honourable guests, sponsors, the HKIS President and fellow members. Stepping into the second year of my term as Chairman of the QSD, I am delighted to share with you the tasks we have accomplished. The main focus of the QSD during this council year is construction cost control monitoring. The QSD recommends to the Government to engage independent cost consultants for civil engineering and infrastructure projects, so as to uphold independence and construction cost transparency. Since the QSD launched its official Facebook page in February 2015, it has already accumulated over 1000 likes. These invisible hands not only indicate the strong support from our members on the QSD events but also give its image a powerful boost via social media. The QSD s corporate membership grew by over 300 in the past 5 years. Currently, the QSD has over 2,700 corporate members. The new members in the QSD, on one hand, shows the attractiveness of our profession to the young surveyors. On the other hand, they represent the valuable manpower for the sustainable growth of the quantity surveying profession. It was also a remarkable milestone for us to join the International Construction Measurement Standards Coalition (ICMSC) in The Coalition, formed by over 30 international professional organizations, aims to develop and implement international standards, for benchmarking, measuring and reporting construction project costs. I am also pleased to announce that the reciprocity agreement between the ICES (Commercial Management) and the HKIS (QSD) was renewed and signed in April A Memorandum of Understanding was entered into by and between the Association of South African Quantity Surveyors (ASAQS) and the HKIS during the PAQS Congress in New Zealand in May The supplementary agreement between the China Engineering Cost Association (CECA) and the HKIS in respect of the third batch of assessment of qualification for members of CECA and HKIS (QSD) under the reciprocity agreement was signed in Beijing in October The training session for interested members from the CECA and HKIS (QSD) for becoming PRC Registered Cost Engineer and qualified Quantity Surveyor in China and Hong Kong respectively will be organized for later this year. Other QSD events and tasks carried out include Assessment of Professional Competence (APC), New Members Welcoming Party, Continuous Professional Development (CPD) and Pre-qualification Structured Learning (PQSL) events, Pacific Association of Quantity Surveyors (PAQS) Accreditation, Scholarship Programme, visits to different universities, institutions and schools. Taking this opportunity, I would like to thank our fellow members for their continuous and wholehearted supports and contributions to the QSD. Your continued support is essential for the growth and development of the QSD. Last but not least, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Organizing Committee for their contribution to make this event successful. May I wish you all have an enjoyable and memorable evening. 5

6 HKIS President's Message Sr Lau Chun Kong President The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors It is my pleasure to offer my warmest congratulations to the Quantity Surveying Division (QSD) Annual Dinner Committed to upholding the industry professional standards, the QSD has over the years organized many CPD activities, and contributed to various initiatives made by the Government. All these are important to the development of the industry as well as that of the Institute. The recent renewal of the reciprocity agreement with the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors (Commercial Management) in April and the PAQS Congress in May are examples of the QSD playing an active role in connecting with other professional organizations around the world. Nurturing and encouraging youngsters to join the surveying profession is crucial to the continued growth of our Institute. I have to thank QSD for its dedicated efforts to nurture the younger generation including various scholarships and career talks to students. It is very important for our members to promote the surveying profession so as to attract talents to join us. On behalf of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, I would like to acknowledge the unfailing efforts and contribution of all QSD members, for their support to the Institute and the development of Hong Kong. I sincerely wish QSD and its members every success in the years to come. 6

7 Guest of Honour's Message Mr Eric SC Ma Under Secretary for Development The Government of HKSAR QSD Annual Dinner 2016 Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors Quantity Surveying Division Annual Dinner 2016 Congratulatory Message by Under Secretary for Development, Mr Eric SC Ma I convey my heartfelt congratulations to the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors Quantity Surveying Division (QSD) for organising the Annual Dinner QSD has again achieved a remarkable year in 2015, and its salient delegation at the 19 th Pacific Association of Quantity Surveyors has defined Hong Kong s construction excellence at the global stage. Indeed, the next ten years will see the local construction industry benefiting from an annual works expenditure that exceeds $200 billion. But with Hong Kong s construction costs being ranked the world s third highest according to international reports, and with a local labour force that peaks in 2018, the expertise of QSD members remains pivotal for us to enhance productivity and better cost control. We believe our three-pronged approach may serve as useful pointers to contain the growing construction costs in Hong Kong. Our works policies are being reviewed to encourage buildable and standardised designs, and the opening of Tsing Yi s rebar prefabrication yard will alleviate bar-bending works on site. We are also scrutinising 300 public works projects in the planning and design stage to assess their cost-saving potential. Moreover, the BIM technology is being widely promoted to minimise construction waste, schedule conflicts and improve safety. To this end, your support is conducive to bring down our construction costs and ensure the sustainability of the industry. Last but not least, may I wish QSD every success in the years to come. ( Eric SC Ma ) Under Secretary for Development 7
