Our President, Mr. Kevin Chu was deeply honoured to represent the Association at The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS) Annual Dinner 2026 on 5 November 2026 .

We express our heartfelt gratitude to HKIS for the gracious invitation. Property management and surveying have long shared a solid foundation of collaboration. This grand event brought together government officials, business leaders, and distinguished professionals, serving as an exceptional platform for high-level industry exchanges .

We will continue to maintain close ties with the surveying sector and other professional bodies. Together, we aim to elevate property service quality and professional standards, foster cross-disciplinary knowledge sharing, and dedicate our professional expertise to building a higher quality living and business environment for Hong Kong’s property management and building maintenance.

宏福苑火災獨立委員會報告已由行政長官公布，政府同時提出樓宇維修制度改革措施，包括成立「樓宇維修支援及服務局」及訂立針對維修工程圍標的刑事罪行。香港物業管理公司協會（HKAPMC）支持上述改革方向，認為成立專責機構及以刑事手段打擊圍標，有助回應報告提出的問題及社會關注。協會謹向事件中的逝者致以深切哀悼，並向家屬及受影響居民致以誠摯慰問。

同時，我們亦感謝獨立委員會就事件進行全面檢視及深入調查，並提出建議。這些建議為香港進一步完善樓宇安全、維修監管及管理制度提供了重要參考。

物業管理行業既承擔樓宇日常運作的實務責任，也是居民與各項制度之間的重要橋樑。我們深信，任何良好的制度設計，必須能夠在真實的管理環境中有效執行，才能真正發揮作用。基於行業的實務經驗，協會就有關改革措施提出以下觀點：

一、「樓宇維修支援及服務局」須與物管實務接軌。我們支持設立專責機構處理及支援樓宇維修工作，但其成效有賴於能否理順與法團、業戶、物管公司及各相關政府部門之間的協調機制，以及整合不同法例下的監管要求。協會願意分享行業經驗，協助建立切實可行的運作模式。

二、圍標刑事化是必要的一步，但舉證與執行同樣關鍵。協會支持透過法律手段打擊系統性反競爭及不當行為，同時關注業界在舉報、記錄與配合調查方面的實際需要，期望制度在立法與執行層面均能發揮最大效能。

三、改革須顧及業戶的負擔與知情權。樓宇維修費用最終由業戶承擔，因此資訊透明、程序公正及有效溝通至關重要。物管行業在促進持份者理解工程需要及加強公眾教育方面，可以發揮積極作用。

改革最終須透過法例落實。協會過去曾多次就樓宇維修及樓宇管理制度向政府提交意見，未來亦會積極配合政府及不同部門推進修例工作，包括就《建築物條例》、《建築物管理條例》及《消防條例》等相關法例修訂，從物管實務角度提供專業建議。

在修例工作上，我們與政府的目標一致，就是務求令法例既能保障公眾安全，同時兼顧實際執行需要，讓業主、法團及物業管理公司能夠達致「三贏」局面。我們亦期望透過更完善的法規、更高水平的專業管理，以及政府、業界和市民的共同努力，建立更安全、更宜居、更值得市民信賴的社區環境。協會將繼續與政府及各持份者攜手合作，推動制度設計與實務執行有效對接，進一步提升香港樓宇安全及管理水平，共同建設一個讓市民安居樂業的國際城市。

The night was a powerful reminder of our industry’s vital role in shaping a safe, liveable, and smart Hong Kong.

This year’s QPFMA theme, “Integrated PFM Services • Creating a Digitized Smart City,” perfectly aligns with Hong Kong’s push towards innovation and the First Five-Year Plan. It was inspiring to see the overwhelming response and the exceptional quality of entries, showcasing groundbreaking solutions in AI, automation, and sustainable practices. The introduction of new award categories, including the “Simple Public Housing” and “Non-Residential” streams, reflects our sector’s commitment to inclusivity and technological advancement.

We are also immensely grateful to our guest of honour, the Secretary for Home and Youth Affairs, Miss MAK Mei Kuen, Alice, SBS, JP, and all our esteemed guests, judges, and partners for their unwavering support.
