Background
In view of the perspective change on telecommunications industry in Hong Kong under CEPA, the executive committee of ITAHK has decided to form a delegation visit to Beijing enabling our members to have an opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences with senior officials from Ministry of Information Industry and Ministry of Commerce that may arise under CEPA.
