Project Legacy organises China State Construction’s Technology Exploration Tour – Zhuhai

The “Legacy x STEAM”, an initiative under the Project Legacy, organised the China State Construction’s Technology Exploration Tour – Zhuhai on October 10. Led by the ambassadors of Project Legacy, around 20 students from seven secondary schools visited the China State Construction’s core education and construction bases, namely “China State Construction Hailong Technology” and “Far East Smart Manufacturing”.

The students gained firsthand exposure to cutting-edge technologies during the visit, including Modular Integrated Construction and Building-Integrated Photovoltaics. The tour offered them an insight into the country’s leading position in modern construction engineering, green and low-carbon technology, and intelligent manufacturing. The students then took part in a STEAM Architecture Workshop, where they applied principles of physics and mechanics to assemble models themselves under the guidance of engineers.

Vice President of China State Construction International Holdings Limited and Legislative Council member
Mr Chan Han-pan came to exchange views with the students and share the experience regarding the development of China State Construction in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and on the international stage. He also offered suggestions on topics such as life planning and youth competitiveness. Participating students said that the event not only deepened their understanding of modern construction technology, but also inspired them to reflect on their studies, career planning and contributions to the community.

Speaking at the closing ceremony, Assistant Commissioner (Service Quality) and Head Ambassador of Project Legacy
Tsui Sheung-yee said that “Legacy x STEAM” would continue to leverage the synergy of the cooperation between the Force’s alumni network and enterprises to provide a wide range of study tour and internship opportunities for young people, nurturing the next generation with a sense of national identity and an international outlook.
