Ir MA Siu Cheung, Eric, GBS, JP
                                           President,
                                           The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers


                                           On behalf of The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE), I wish to extend my heartfelt
                                           congratulations to the Quality Building Award (QBA) as it embarks on the remarkable journey of
                                           its 22nd edition. The QBA has long been recognised as the pinnacle of achievement within Hong
                                           Kong’s construction and real estate sector, symbolising the industry’s invaluable contributions
                                           to our community and its relentless pursuit of urban advancement.

                                           QBA 2024’s inspiring theme “Empowering Innovation | Sustaining Green | Generating Wellness”
                                           is a powerful catalyst urging stakeholders to embrace innovative and environmentally conscious
                                           solutions for the betterment of society. QBA’s vision to extend its impact beyond Hong Kong and
                                           into the Greater Bay Area (GBA) by introducing the new “Building in GBA” award category is
                                           particularly notable. This addition fosters greater recognition of regional excellence and
                                           cultivates stronger bonds between Hong Kong and the wider area. By celebrating remarkable
                                           projects from the GBA, QBA forges a network for knowledge dissemination, exchange of best
                                           practices, and the promotion of collective prosperity.

                                           The HKIE enthusiastically supports the QBA’s campaign to identify and honour the exceptional
                                           accomplishments of our industry’s leading experts, who consistently challenge limits, innovate,
                                           and establish new benchmarks.

                                           Once again, I extend my deepest appreciation to all participants and supporting organisations of
                                           the QBA. May QBA 2024 be a resounding success, energising our shared commitment to
                                           industry-wide progress.
