             | In November 1985, Hotel Industry Training Centre 
            HOTC (now Hospitality Industry Training and Development Centre 
            HITDC) had just introduced their second 2-month Food and Beverage 
            course. I thought it could be interesting so I applied for the 
            course. This eventually marked the starting point of my career in 
            the hospitality industry. Upon completion of this 2-month course, I 
            was accepted by the Peninsula as a trainee in the Food and Beverage 
            department.
 At the beginning of 1999, I rose to the position of the manager of 
            the Spring Moon Chinese Restaurant and nine months later, I was 
            promoted to the position of Assistant Food and Beverage Manager of 
            the Peninsula Hotel. In the summer of 2001, I spent one week at the 
            Peninsula New York as part their exchange training programme. I 
            stayed on a further 6 weeks in Chicago with their pre-opening 
            business development.
 
 Very recent year, I was promoted again. I am now the Director of 
            Food and Beverage of the Peninsula Hotel.
 
 I do believe and it is a fact that no matter how much or how little 
            formal education you have, so long as you work hard, you will 
            succeed. After all, I am a HITDC graduate, and I think I have made 
            it; so can you.
