Inthis issue
of
Sphere
we are
concentrating on responsibility
– corporate social responsibility, responsibility to
our fellow human beings and responsibility to our
planet. In all these areas, Hutchison’s policy is to “think
globally, but act locally”.
Our cover story examines how HWL employees
handle corporate social responsibility and looks into
on-going community projects. We then move onto
Love Ideas, Love HK
– a philanthropic campaign
launched by Mr Li Ka-shing that has taken Hong Kong
by storm.
HK Electric is leading the drive towards clean en-
ergy in our city with the commissioning of the Lamma
Power Station Solar Power System.
On the telecoms front, we examine the concept of
mobile network sharing, a practice that not only saves
on energy but also saves consumers money. And finally,
we focus on Mainland China’s emerging wine market,
and howWatson’s Wine has risen to the occasion.
We hope you enjoy the magazine. Please send
