                                How young girls


                                create their smart

                                future






                Together with KPMG, CLP, JOS and Siemens, the Smart City
                Consortium released a survey report on the development
                of the smart city in Hong Kong in 2018. More than 500

                business executives and 1,000 citizens were interviewed;                   263
                both groups of interviewees expressed their view that
                education was one of the top three elements for Hong
                Kong's continued prosperity.



                They also expressed their belief that engineering and
                applied science were crucial to Hong Kong's development
                in the coming ten years. Today, as we are overwhelmed

                by information technology, such expectation is very
                reasonable. However, do our children have the same
                aspiration?
