Regala Skycity Hotel has launched its first annual festival. The five-week celebration, themed Life’s a Carnival, brings together activities, performances and workshops and is complemented by promotions for accommodation and dining.

Life’s a Carnival is the first in a series of programmes that will be hosted throughout the year. The carnival theme celebrates life's moments of vitality, pictured at the hotel entrance as gigantic blossoming flowers with wide-spreading tree pillars and leaves. 

The lobby is a focal point for the programme. A colourful butterfly installation has been set up in the lobby, which will also see complimentary samba and piano performances, photography sessions by professional photographers as well as DIY art and craft.

The hotel has prepared a series of festival workshops covering dance, yoga, wine tasting, mixology and flower piping. Guests staying at the hotel can enjoy selected workshops on a complimentary basis during the carnival period, while guests dining at the hotel can participate at a discount.

From now until May 28, guests can join the celebration with staycations starting from HK$1,890 per room per night, with breakfast and dinner included for two adults. Furthermore, guests will be eligible to participate in complimentary wine tasting, or sky deck stretch yoga workshops for those reserving seaview rooms. Guests who reserve deluxe and themed suites within the promotion period will also be eligible to participate in up to three selected complimentary workshops. 

All guests who have booked Life’s a Carnival staycation packages during the period will also enjoy additional privileges, including a priority pass for the Carnival Experience Zone, photo-taking with performers, complimentary welcome drinks, daily breakfasts, use of the game room, and more. Guests can also sign up for a 360 Lantau heritage tour, nature guided tour and safari tour.

Throughout the carnival period, nature and carnival-themed souvenirs will also be available for sale at the Carnival Experience Zone at the hotel.

CHKLC announces 2014 winners of HK Corporate Governance Excellence Awards

The winners of the Hong Kong Corporate Governance Excellence Awards 2014 were recently announced by the Chamber of Hong Kong Listed Companies (CHKLC), the organisers of the annual awards programme. According to the CHKLC, corporate governance represents respect of shareholder rights and values, board and management integrity and degree of transparency and accountability. 

Dr Eddy Fong, Chairman of the Judging Panel, said that the winners have tailored their governance polices and principles to tackle the risks and challenges facing their organisations or industries rather than just following the standard code of practice.

"In addition, winning companies recognise (that) sustainability is an integral part of sound corporate governance and is closely linked to the long term development and prosperity of a company; they have therefore made much efforts in that area," he said.

The winners of the 2014 Awards are Hang Lung Properties and Lenovo Group in the Category for Hang Seng Index Constituents; plus AAC Technologies Holdings and China Pacific Insurance (Group) Company in the Category for Hang Seng Composite Index Constituents. The Lenovo Group won again in the Sustainability category, with VTech Holdings being the other winner.

Patrick Sun, Chairman of CHKLC noted that more companies have been willing to step up to share their experience. "The winners come from very different industry backgrounds and differ in size which shows good corporate governance is not exclusive to large companies with huge resources," he said.

"We are much encouraged to see sustainability measures are receiving wholehearted attention from companies. They are fully integrated into the business operations and treated as part of the risk management process, and are closely linked to the long term prosperity of the companies themselves."
