Imperial Service Medal for Works Supervisor
A Works Supervisor II of the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department has been awarded the Imperial Service Medal by the Queen in recognition of his exemplary service.
Mr Wong Tong, aged 58, has been working in the Airport Services Sub- division of the department since joining the Government in 1963. He retired from the service late last year.
During his 30 years' of service, Mr Wong was mainly responsible for the operation and maintenance of the air-conditioning plants at the Hong Kong International Airport.
The Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services, Mr Hugh Phillipson, today (Friday) praised Mr Wong for his strong sense of responsibilities throughout the period he worked for the department.
