"I am convinced that the service will be of the greatest
benefit to the dental health of the younger generation. Taken
together with the new school of dentistry now being planned in the
Hong Kong University, it has wide implications for the development
of dental services in Hong Kong.
"Time and again, the development of medical services in
Hong Kong has benefitted from donations from Sir Shiu-kin Tang.
A number of medical projects in the vicinity, such as Tang Shiu
Kin Hospital and the Tang Chi Ngong Specialist Clinic, were built
with his contributions.
"On this occasion, he has again donated generously towards
the cost of building not only this Centre but also the Dental
Nurse Training School and the School Children's Dental Clinic
within it. Though the Centre will bear my name at Sir Shiw-kin's
request, as a token of the Government's appreciation for Sir
Shiu-kin's generosity, the School and Clinic will be named after
him."1
