Beijing civil servant delegation in HK for exchange program Hong Kong Secretary for Civil Service Joseph Wong Monday welcomed the first delegation of civil servants from the Beijing municipal government under the Hong Kong- Beijing Staff Exchange Program. The Beijing Municipal Bureau of Personnel's Deputy Director Huang Qiang led the delegation of five professional officers from the Beijing Municipal Commission of Urban Planning, Transportation Committee and Health Bureau. They will spend three months with their Hong Kong counterparts. In the coming months, four Hong Kong civil servants will spend time with their counterparts in Beijing. The first staff exchange program with Chinese mainland cities started in 2002 when Hong Kong and the Shanghai Municipal People's Government signed an agreement under which both sides arrange professional officers to attach to the other government for about three months. The program's main objectives are to widen the exposure of participating staff, facilitate cross fertilization of experience and expertise and help foster closer partnership and communication between both sides. In the past two years, Shanghai and Hong Kong have each sent eight officers to join this program. It has now been expanded to cover Beijing and Hangzhou. Exchange programs with Hangzhou and Shanghai will follow later this year. |
