To our English-speaking mentors and mentees, we are here today to celebrate two major milestones of the "She Inspires" Mentorship Programme - the graduation of our first cohort, and the launch of our second.

This year, we proudly bring together over 70 mentors and 120 mentees, showcasing the power of women empowering women across generations.

This programme is a celebration of continuity. Mentors pass on wisdom to ignite future leadership, while mentees broaden their horizons to reach further than ever.

My sincere thanks go to our dedicated mentors, passionate mentees, university partners, and the team behind the scenes for making this a success.

Congratulations to our graduating cohort, and best wishes to our new cohort as they begin their journey.

And you do not walk alone. The Government will continue to work with the community to advance women's empowerment and open more doors for Hong Kong. I look forward to seeing every one of you become the future leaders of our city. Thank you.

LegCo Panel on Transport concludes duty visit in Beijing

The following is issued on behalf of the Legislative Council Secretariat:

The delegation of the Legislative Council (LegCo) Panel on Transport concluded its duty visit in Beijing today (September 5), and will depart for Hong Kong in the evening.

In the morning, the delegation visited the headquarters of Amap to receive a briefing from representatives on how traffic big data analysis is utilised to assist the Government in real-time monitoring of highway traffic flow and road congestion, enabling precise traffic diversion and enhancing traffic management effectiveness.

Members noted that Amap integrates map, navigation and real-time traffic information to enable users to plan efficient travel routes. Members also explored with representatives on how to use artificial intelligence to deepen traffic data analysis, in order to effectively alleviate road traffic load and promote smart transport development.

Concluding the four-day duty visit, the delegation leader, Dr Chan Han-pan, stated that the duty visit was fruitful and of great significance. He said, "The visit has deepened Members' understanding of Beijing's ride-hailing platforms, smart transport applications, autonomous driving and urban road planning, and we were deeply impressed that local developments are very mature and advanced. The experience gained from this duty visit will help Members provide precise recommendations to the Administration in the future regarding the development of the Northern Metropolis and overall transport policy, thereby facilitating the implementation of relevant various transport measures in a more efficient and grounded manner."

The delegation, led by the Chairman of Panel on Transport, Dr Chan Han-pan, visited Beijing from September 2 to 5. A total of 13 members and non-members of the Panel participated in the duty visit. The Secretary for Transport and Logistics, Ms Mable Chan, has also led a government delegation to join the duty visit.
