Ngong Ping Cable Car is one of the few bi-cable circulating cable car systems in the world, and it is also the biggest aerial cable car of its kind in Asia. Ngong Ping 360 is committed to providing locals and overseas guests alike the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city as well as the opportunity to embrace nature along the way.

Customer-centric approach“Ngong Ping 360 puts emphasis on providing excellent services, promoting team spirit and creating pride,” said Mr. Wilson Shao, Managing Director of Ngong Ping 360. “We recognise our staff as our most valuable asset, and our core value is to deliver excellent guest services by working as one team. In order to achieve service excellence, we have spared no effort in delivering a dedicated service approach, building a positive service culture, engaging our staff and tracking our service performance.

“Since Ngong Ping 360’s cable car system can be affected by adverse weather, we have redesigned our system beginning with areas that directly interact with our customers.”

Mr. Shao explained that part of this approach involves the introduction of live broadcast capabilities into cable car cabins to provide guests with timely information during the

occasional service disruptions that occur due to a range of factors, including loading wheelchair-bound guests onto the cable car and adverse weather conditions.

“Compared with playing a taped message during our past service disruptions, broadcasting a live feed can ease anxiety and reinforce a sense of security among our guests.” Mr. Shao added.

Ngong Ping 360 wins the CILT Award 2013 In Recognition of Service ExcellenceNgong Ping 360 is a dynamic tourist experience that combines a stunning 5.7km cable car journey with an impressive culturally themed village, taking guests on countless stunning journeys between Tung Chung Town Centre at sea level and the soaring highland of Ngong Ping. As one of Hong Kong’s “must-see” tourist attractions, Ngong Ping 360 puts its customers first in every aspect of its operations.

Mr. Wilson Shao, Managing Director of Ngong Ping 360, said: “Ngong Ping 360 is striving to be the gateway to Lantau Island West and a leading tourist destination.”

CILT Award 2013

Ngong Ping 360 provides a dynamic experience that features a visually spectacular 5.7-kilometre, 25-minute cable car journey offering panoramic views of the iconic Tian Tan Buddha statue, North Lantau Country Park, Tung Chung Bay and the Hong Kong International Airport.

Reliability is the key to successNgong Ping 360 adopts an Integrated Management System that incorporated international ISO9001 and OHSAS 18001 standards to support system assurance. Ngong Ping 360 attaches great importance to operational effectiveness in terms of providing safe, reliable and enjoyable cable car services, so it has installed a set of precise sensors in its cable car system to closely monitor the operation of the cable cars. More than 40,000 signals are detected and managed every single hour to ensure that the cable car operation adheres to the highest safety standards. In addition, scheduled maintenance works are arranged every year. In 2013, Ngong Ping Cable Car achieved a service reliability rating of 99.82%.

Caring for the environmentNgong Ping 360 is devoted to the protection of the environment and is committed to preserving North Lantau Country Park. “During the design of our cable car system, a thorough ecological survey was conducted to avoid affecting the areas

with rare and protected species,” said Mr. Shao. “In addition, helicopters and mules were used to transport over 12,000 tons of materials during the construction phase, while the ropeway system was operated on an energy-efficient basis.

In addition, Ngong Ping Village is Hong Kong’s First Zero Plastic Shopping Bag Village as the Company and its tenants have stopped offering plastic shopping bags since June 2010 with an aim to minimise the use of non eco friendly materials and provide visitors with a fresh journey and a green shopping experience.

Becoming Hong Kong’s choice tourist destinationNgong Ping 360 is located amidst the natural blue and green blend of Lantau Island, and it has worked to continually maintain the natural environment and features of the surrounding countryside, providing great potential for the development of sensory tourism. Ngong Ping 360 therefore plans to invest over HK$30 million towards renovating its facilities, enhancing its services and introducing a number of new sensory tourism programmes.

“As one of Hong Kong’s major tourist attractions, Ngong Ping 360 strives to explore opportunities to enrich the travel experience, with sensory tourism being the main theme of Ngong Ping 360 from 2014,” said Mr. Shao. “Accordingly, Ngong Ping 360 will launch a wide range of new programmes and services to position itself as the gateway to Lantau Island West and a leading tourist destination, and to promote the economy and development of Lantau Island.”

Mr. Shao is gratified that Ngong Ping 360 was chosen as the winner of the CILT Award 2013, and he believes this recognition will encourage staff to keep pursuing excellence in customer service and promoting the Ngong Ping 360 brand.

CILTHK Student Day 2014 To encourage students to take note and care about the development of the transport and logistics industry, the Institute has been organising the CILTHK Student Day annually since 1997. This year, the event was successfully held on 8th March at the PolyU Hong Kong Community College (West Kowloon Campus) and was participated by 9 teams from universities/colleges in Hong Kong and Macau. The case study on “Free MTR rides to ease morning crush, do you think it can be provided in Hong Kong’s MTR as well?” presented by students of the Chinese University of Hong Kong won the championship. Mr. Kenrick Fok, Chief Judge, praised all participating students had made the greatest efforts to prepare and were able to give reports with analysis and necessary information within a short time. He commented that the level of each group’s analytical and reporting skills were better than last year but suggested students could include more personal opinions, to analyse the crux of the issue from multi-angles. Since there were few cross-border questions to comparing Hong Kong with the Mainland and/or Macau, Mr. Fok referred the cross-border transportation would be the future direction of social development, students were encouraged to pay more attention in this regard. It was announced at the end of the award ceremony that the next CILTHK Student Day 2015 would be hosted at IVE (Tsing Yi). The event was closed under the successful conclusion of applause.

Date Activities Early of June Notify selected CMILTs who are randomly drawn for the auditAugust Review the CPD records sheets by audit panelMid of September CPD Award presentation at Annual General Meeting 2014

A briefing session of the CPD audit to CILT members will be held on 19 June 2014 evening at CILTHK office. Members especially CMILT are encouraged to attend this briefing session to know more about CPD and CPD audit requirements.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the term defined for continuously acquiring and improvement of knowledge, skills and competence throughout a logistic and transport professional’s working life through relevant learning activity, whether formal and structured or informal and self-directed (see Types of CPD below). CPD obligations are common to most prestige professions amongst others CILTHK. Throughout the years the Institute has been actively permeating the understanding of CPD to Members, there were 5 quizzes about CPD knowledge launched lately through Institute’s newsletters and websites in past 12 months.

Types of CPD There are two categories of CPD activities; viz. the “Structured” (formal learning) and the “Unstructured” (informal learning). Structured CPD can be achieved through interaction with other individuals like attendance at CILTHK recognised technical meetings, seminars, lectures, and courses. Unstructured CPD is normally achieved through members’ private reading and studying. CPD points are awarded to members taking part in the CPD activities. To pass an audit, the minimum CPD points required for a CMILT are 200 CPD

points in every two calendar years. Details of the CPD can be also found in the Membership Handbook.

Why CPD audit is required?CILTHK is committed to ensure our members, in particularly those members who have Chartered status, have maintained the required competencies of professionalism and up-to-date expertise, and that their involvement in CPD activities will be audited from time to time. Members are required to maintain records and documentary evidence to support their attendance or completion of CPD activities, and to provide such records and documentary evidence when they are randomly selected for a review.

Awards to proactive participants!!! It is strongly recommended that you take a positive approach to your personal and professional development thus this audit.

According to the regulation, exporters, manufacturers and distributors who plan to market their cosmetic products in China are required to obtain an SFDA license for finished cosmetic products and new cosmetic ingredients in their products. Mr. Albert Leung introduced the product registration process, document and requirement, time and relevant costs to the participants.

CILTHK Seminar on Food Logistics Challenges to China, 22 January 2014The requirements of quality food by the Chinese consumers have been increasing in recent 10 years. It brings a huge potential market for overseas companies to export their quality food into China. Based on the China Statistics, the growth rate is 15% every year and the sales turnover of regular imported food was RMB 63 billion in 2012. However, there are still a lot of importation bottle necks like the cross border logistics between Hong Kong and China to be resolved, such as Customs, CIQ, Cold Chain, etc. Many overseas companies encountered a lot of difficulties and hurdles to enter into the China market. At the seminar, Mr. Ken Chung, General Manager and B.D. of DCH Logistics Ltd., shared his experience of the cross border food logistics and provided some hands on solutions for participants’ reference. That evening was rewarding and enjoyable and the seminar was well received by all participants.

Low Carbon Logistics: Good Practice and Guideline for SMEs

To enable SMEs participants familiarising the concept of Low Carbon Logistics, group discussions on case studies were formed in the training workshop

With the kind funding of the Trade and Industry Department, C.Y. Tung International Centre for Maritime Studies (ICMS) and the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in Hong Kong (CILTHK) co-organised the project, entitled “Low Carbon Logistics: Good Practice and Guideline for SMEs”. The project was aimed at helping SMEs to reduce carbon emissions and enhance competitiveness in the global market by familiarising local SMEs with low carbon policies and good practices in logistics services in the Greater Pearl River Delta.

Low carbon logistics denotes logistics activities that reduce carbon emissions through low carbon manufacturing, low carbon packing, low carbon warehousing and low carbon transportation. ICMS is administered by the Department of Logistics and Maritime Studies and the Low Carbon Logistics project is supported by the SME Development Fund of the Trade and Industry Department of the HKSAR Government.

Good practices of Low Carbon Logistics were identified by conducting site visits at more than 20 companies in Hong Kong and PRD; 6 seminars were set up by inviting experts for presenting and sharing the latest information of Low Carbon Logistics.

The Opening Seminar on Low Carbon Logistics was successfully held on 28 March 2013. The Opening Seminar was inaugurated with opening addresses by officiating guests including Prof. Chung-Lun Li, Acting Director of C.Y. Tung International Centre for Maritime Studies; Prof. Becky P.Y.

6 issues of Newsletter were disseminated to demonstrate the news, knowledge and good practices of Low Carbon Logistics. Additionally, the project team had published a guidebook (in English and Chinese) to promote Low Carbon Logistics in Hong Kong. The book, titled Low Carbon Logistics: Good Practice and Guidelines for SMEs, covers latest concepts, policies and regulations of Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta in addition to operation and management practices recommended for SMEs. This guidebook summarised the findings and experiences learnt by visiting SMEs in shipping, logistics, transport, trading and manufacturing which looked into industrial behaviours and potential problems related to the realisation of Low Carbon Logistics. A web page was built up for easy access to news, learning resources and the guidebook by interest parties. Fruitful results were gained from this project.
