Providing sustainable housing continues to be the Housing Authority's vision. We believe that to achieve this we have to utilize the most intelligent designs, implement sustainable construction methods and manage our properties in a cost effective, participatory and environmentally responsible manner.

This year we have maintained our focus on sustainability in our estates, offices and new constructions. We have concentrated on achieving our targets and spearheading initiatives that are consistent with our vision and policies. We have expanded our outlook from a health, safety and environmental perspective to a more comprehensive view of sustainability, which includes environmental, social and economic concerns. To recognize this transition we have prepared our first Sustainability Report.

Our progress over the last year has been achieved with the substantial support from our staff, tenants and the wider community. With the continued support and input from these stakeholders we are certain that we can continue to provide Hong Kong with housing that meets its social, environmental and economic needs.
