This brief summary merely touches the surface of the year's activities and I hope that members will find time to read the annual report itself for a fuller account.

Current Year and Future Plans

During the current financial year, the TDC's trade promotional activities are continuing at a high level. Efforts to penetrate the Japanese market has been a major priority, and the recent economic mission and toy promotion in Tokyo complemented our programme of activities in that market.

Our second product exhibition in China will be staged

in Shanghai this May.

The TDC will also be assuming additional

responsibilities. By agreement with the Government, the TDC will take over from the Government the Hong Kong Shippers' Council and the Hong Kong/Japan Business Cooperation Committee.

Apart from trade promotions, this year promises to be a significant one in other respects. We will be starting work on the Hong Kong International Exhibition Centre project which, when completed in 1988, is expected to be Asia's largest and most sophisticated purpose-built exhibition and conference

complex.
