Mr Ku was first appointed as a Messenger by the then Public Relations Office (now Information Services Department)

in 1949. In 1967 he was transferred to fill a Motor Driver

He is well liked by his colleagues who have elected him to be the Motor Drivers' Representative to serve on the Information Services Department Joint Junior and General Grades Staff

Consultative Committee.
