Hello
I am Julia Lau, an “Architect” by profession, and currently President of the HKIA. This is my first time participating in the Legislative Council election, representing the functional constituency of the Architectural, Surveying, Planning, and Landscape sector.
I have accumulated over 30 years of professional knowledge and experience, with my most significant project being the Kowloon Station development (which includes ICC, the tallest skyscraper in Hong Kong). My public service roles include membership in the Town Planning Board, Advisory Council on Environment, HK Housing Authority, HK Housing Society, PolyU Council, St John Ambulance Council, HK Arts Center Board of Governors & Academy of Performing Arts Council, and Board of Management of the Chinese Permanent Cemeteries etc.
My Campaign Slogan is:
REFRESH A NEW HORIZON. STRONGER TOGETHER!
With over 30 years of accumulated professional and public service experience, along with my network of connections, I aim to be a part of driving a new economic landscape for Hong Kong. I hope my efforts can help Hong Kong showcase a REFRESH NEW HORIZON, benefiting industries, the city, and the people.
Yous truly,
Julia LAU
