會長觀點 20240316
春霧迷矇，彷似反映香港的經濟現狀。衹要目標清晰，就不怕路上失去方向。學會委員會最近馬不停蹄，跟進過往幾年積累下來的行業問題，計有:
1）建造業議會 (CIC)修訂的註冊專門行業承造商 (RSTCS) 行業分類引申的問題，影響不少測量公司的業務運作，更反映了議會對於測量行業與及平水行業的不瞭解。學會已去信反映問題所在，積極和議會跟進中。
2）新科技開創新的工種和業務，例如建築資訊模型 (BIM)，對社會發展本應是好事，但實際執行過程當中，容易忽略了傳統專業的角色。例如在工務工程合約當中，有關 BIM 數據採集(3D digital survey) 的條款，完全忽略了專業測量師應該扮演的位置，對數據質素及監管引來不少副作用。有見及此，學會將會與工務局進行積極跟進相關問題。
3）開展對外推廣活動，繼與訪港的FIG會長見面交流之外，學會亦派代表到青島作行業交流和探訪。
事務繁多，再再需要各位會員的支持和參與，期待你的加入。

President's view 20240316
The misty spring mist seems to reflect the current economic situation in Hong Kong. As long as the goal is clear, there is no fear of losing direction on the road. The HKIES Council has been tirelessly following up on industry issues accumulated over the past few years, including:
1) The issue of extending the industry classification of Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme (RSTCS) revised by the Construction Industry Council (CIC) has affected the business operations of many surveying companies and reflects the council's lack of understanding of the surveying and leveling industries. The Council has sent a letter to report the issue and is actively following up with CIC.
2) New technologies and innovative professions and businesses, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), should have been good for social development, but in the actual implementation process, it is easy to overlook the role of traditional professions. For example, in engineering contracts, the terms related to BIM data collection (3D digital survey) completely ignore the role that professional surveyors should play, which has caused many side effects on data quality and supervision. In view of this, the Council will actively follow up with the Works Bureau.
3) To carry out external promotion activities, in addition to meeting and exchanging ideas with the visiting FIG President in Hong Kong, the Council will also sent representatives to Qingdao for industry exchanges and visits.
There are many affairs, and we need the support and participation of all members. We look forward to your joining.
