The Food and Health Bureau (FHB) will hold a briefing on February 16
(Tuesday) to introduce the Government's proposal to develop a Chinese
medicine hospital at a reserved site in Tseung Kwan O. The briefing aims to
provide more details and information on the proposal to interested parties.
"With a view to gauging the concerns and views of the market on the Chinese
medicine hospital, the Government has specially invited non-profit-making
organisations which are interested in developing and operating the Chinese
medicine hospital to submit expression of interest (EOI) covering various
areas, including the management structure, manpower arrangements, financing
model, implementation time frame, services and facilities of the hospital,"
a spokesman for the FHB said today (January 29).
Non-profit-making organisations and people who are interested in the
proposal are welcome to attend the briefing. Representatives of the FHB, the
Department of Health and the Hospital Authority will brief the attendees on
the proposal for developing the Chinese medicine hospital, including its
background and basic requirements, as well as the considerations and
principles on the submission of EOI, followed by a question-and-answer
session. The briefing will be conducted in Cantonese.
The briefing will be held at the Auditorium, G/F, Central Government
Offices, 2 Tim Mei Avenue, Tamar, from 10am to noon on February 16. People
who are interested to join the briefing can call 3904 9147 or email
