Chairman

As Hong Kong's 'Housing Laboratory', the Housing Society has been keeping pace with the times for over seventy years, implementing innovative solutions to provide affordable, quality housing that addresses various needs of the Hong Kong people. This spirit of innovation and progress is the cornerstone of our business development. As we approach a peak in construction activity, we must carefully manage resource planning and risk management to ensure we can continue to serve the people of this city sustainably.
Prof Ling Kar-kan, SBS
Chairman

I am truly honoured to be elected as Chairman of the Hong Kong Housing Society, fully embracing the significant responsibilities that come with this role. During my tenure, I look forward to working closely with the Supervisory Board, Executive Committee, and Management Team to continue the Housing Society's mission of providing quality homes for the community, and to collectively realise our vision of “Creating Homes for Sustainable Living”.

As a close partner of the Government, we are committed to aligning our efforts with the housing needs of Hong Kong citizens. We will continue to evolve with the times, employing innovative thinking to construct quality housing and deliver related services, thereby enhancing the sense of well-being of the residents and creating long-term value for the sustainable development of our society.

The Housing Society is currently planning and constructing over 20 projects, including Subsidised Sale Flats, Dedicated Rehousing Estates and Rental Estate Redevelopment, as well as elderly housing projects. To enhance management efficiency, occupational safety and health, and customer service standards, we will continue to utilise innovative technology across housing development, property management, elderly services, and daily operations.

In promoting sustainability and ESG initiatives, we will further explore practical solutions to support Hong Kong's goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. We aim to create living environments and communities that fosters intergenerational harmony, enhancing the quality of life for all residents. We also place great importance on maintaining strong relationships with all stakeholders, firmly believing that united efforts will forge a brighter future for Hong Kong.

I invite you to explore our website and hope it enriches your understanding of the Hong Kong Housing Society, as well as the work we do.
