SARS Survivors Visited Cyberport (29 Dec 2003)
29 December, 2003

Permanent Secretary for Home Affairs, Ms Shelley Lee who's known for her dedication to support the community, brought the children of families, who once contracted the disease, to Cyberport for a day of sunshine and cyber activities. Dr Margaret Chan, relieving herself shortly from her busy schedule in Switzerland with the World Health Organization, made her way here with the children as well. Dr Fong Hong (Hospital Chief Executive, Prince of Wales Hospital), Dr Leung Nai-Kong (Hon. Professor, Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong) and his spouse Mrs Olivia Leung also joined the visit.

The visitors were first shown an animation film sponsored by Centro Digital Pictures Ltd., one of Cyberport's tenants, on the large outdoor LED screen at CyberPlaza. The visitors were then guided to visit The University of Hong Kong (Cyber. i) at Cyberport 1 and the Hong Kong Wireless Development Centre (HKWDC) where the children tried out different computer and wireless games. The last stop was the Visitor Centre where the visitors fully enjoyed the 360 degree movie on the vision of Cyberport and the navigators at Navigator Gallery. A sumptuous lunch was served and the children brought home high-tech toys from the kind-hearted uncles and aunties.
