HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 5 April 2024 - Organised by The Hong Kong Institute of Housing ("HKIH"), the HKIH Elite Awards 2024 is open for nomination by 8 March 2024. The nomination period will close at 12:00 noon, 28 June 2024.

Ms Patricia Chang, President of the HKIH, said, "Composition of the HKIH Elite Awards' jury panel is always our top concern over the years, with a view to ensure impartiality and professionalism for all nominations received. This year, we are honored to have invited a diversified mix of jurors, who will offer their expert views during the judging process. As always, we are grateful for their contributions. Together, we will foster healthy industry growth by giving recognition to high-performing individuals and teams at large."

Housing management professionals have been working hard to enhance harmonious, well-managed living and working environments for all citizens over the years. Their contribution and outstanding performance should be recognised and made known to a wider public. With social unrests and pandemic challenges, housing management professionals' dedicated efforts were especially profound and important for the community. Thus, HKIH launched the first HKIH Elite Awards in 2020 to reward the outstanding contributions of members and industry practitioners. By bringing together leading corporate executives, professionals, and academic institutions, as well as industry leaders, the HKIH Elite Awards offers an excellent opportunity for local housing management individuals and teams to be recognised for their professionalism and achievement.
