New videos to expand the series to all aspects of building management will continue to be produced.
And, to tie in with this seminar, a roving exhibition on private building management will be mounted in all districts in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, Mr Wong also called on owners and residents to work closely together to promote successful management in their buildings.
"Effective building management by owners and residents not only leads to less risk, less crime and less problems but also, by building up friendship, harmony and good neighbourliness, can be a force in promoting successful community building and ensuring your building, your home, is a happier, healthier environment for you and your families.
"Not only is a well managed building a comfortable place to live in, but also it is a major asset increasing in value and thus helping to increase the value of the flat you live in," Mr Wong said.
Jointly organised by the Home Affairs Department and the Housing Department, "The Building Management Seminar '95" discussed the management contract scheme of the Housing Department, the Lands Tribunal's jurisdiction over building management, maintenance of electrical installations in buildings and the importance of professional building management.
More than 300 office-bearers of owners' corporations and mutual aid committees, as well as practitioners in building management attended today's seminar.
