SINCE 1972, THE YEAS HAD SPONSORED THREE ANNUAL CAREERS EXHIBITIONS FOR HONG KONG'S YOUNG PEOPLE, THEIR TEACHERS AND THEIR PARENTS.

+ IT PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR EMPLOYERS IN VARIOUS SECTORS AS WELL AS GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS TO INTRODUCE THEIR TRADES TO STUDENTS AND YOUNG PEOPLE ON THE ONE HAND, AND ON THE OTHER IT HELPS THESE YOUNG PEOPLE GATHER INFORMATION ON A VARIETY OF TRADES AND INDUSTRIES.+

ALTHOUGH A CAREERS EXHIBITION WAS COSTLY AND TIME-CONSUMING TO THE EXHIBITORS, MR. LIN DESCRIBED IT AS THE MOST ATTRACTIVE AND EFFECTIVE WAY OF DISSEMINATING CAREERS INFORMATION.

THIS WAS EVIDENT IN THE RAPIDLY INCREASING NUMBER OF VISITORS TO THE THREE EXHIBITIONS, FROM 28,000 IN 1972, 48,500 IN 1973 TO 93,000 IN 1974.

IN VIEW OF THE SUCCESS, MR. LIN SAID IT HAD BEEN DECIDED TO HOLD ANOTHER EXHIBITION IN DECEMBER THIS YEAR.
