In the properties division, KWIH has reported sound property sales in Hong Kong and Mainland China, while adding sites in the Yangtze River Delta region and the Pearl River Delta region to its land bank in a further extension of K.

In construction materials, KWCM has been a supplier for the south runway resurfacing project at the Hong Kong International Airport last year, as well as the recently opened Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, to which it has supplied ready-mixed concrete, asphalt and concrete pipes. KWCM has also been appointed a ready-mixed concrete supplier for the third runway construction project, as it continues to make contributions to our city’s development.

Fulfillment of corporate social responsibility and promotion of world harmony

Meanwhile, the LUI Che Woo Prize– Prize for World Civilisation founded four years ago by Dr Lui, has awarded nine deserving laureates in the past three years in recognition of their contributions in promoting sustainable development of the world, welfare betterment and enhancement of positive energy.
