Mr C F Kwan, General Manager – Corporate Communication of NWS Holdings, said, “Having a 43,000- strong workforce in Hong Kong, Mainland China and Macau, we always regard the Newsletters as effective means to enhance internal communications, where the Group’s latest information and developments are timely released. We are proud to receive the award, which is also a testimony to the Group’s effective communications. ”
New Voice, the quarterly newsletter which delivers news of the Group was first published in October 2000, in a bid to promote cohesion among staff members and enhance internal communications. Readers’ survey is conducted once every two years to collect feedback from our staff so as to nurture a stronger sense of belonging. In addition, 《創建集》was launched in January 2005, which caters the reading habits of frontline staff with a more relaxed style.
