黃百鳴此次攜老搭檔光頭笑星麥嘉、知名導演高志森來新,一是爲香港新加坡商會慶生,二是爲一部三人傾力合作打造的舞台劇《一代天驕》造勢。這部劇以獨特的敘事方式展現了粵劇大師紅線女從出道到晚年的經曆,概括而立體地再現了她傳奇般的藝術人生。
2013年紅線女以89歲高齡辭世。
由高志森擔任監制/導演/藝術總監的《一代天驕》將于10月14日在新加坡嘉龍劇院上演,女主角紅線女由紅派藝術傳人、2017年中國戲劇梅花獎得主蘇春梅擔當,黃百鳴和麥嘉將在劇中扮演重要角色,並演唱粵劇名曲。

Ladies and Gentlemen
Welcome to HSBA’s 23rd AnniversaryDinner.
Tonight, we are indeed honored by the presence of Ms Indranee to grace our Association’s 23rd Anniversary Celebrations.
HK just celebrated 20thanniversary of Handover as HK Special Administrative Region. What a difference in 20 years. In 1997 and pre-1997 the state ofuncertainties – Return to /china caused out flux of people – divestments andtogether with 1997 Asian Crisis – created a perfect storm.
HK Corporates loss confidence / people migrated, divested, yet today HK economy Not only is better and even isembarking on yet another Journey L-Tgrowth path – sure it still has its problems, social “unrest”, Universal Suffrage, Housing issues, Income Polarisation, unequal income distribution is very high.
Gini Coefficient
HK 0.53 V SING 0.458 (2016)
But one thing some of us learned thehard way “Never – bet – against HK – the un-Relentless Spirit of “Can do” andthe continuous influx of new immigrants can keep on Rejuvenate HK. Together with a Economic Model of “truly” lazzirefaire system and a first class legal / independent system let HK do whatever isbest economically, perfect Supply / Demand curve in truly market sense – and HK can andwill be able to find it’s equilibrium. Since then HK is known for its Financial Services, its stock market is oneof the biggest Markets in raising money.
HK Capitalization [HK$30.54T] vsUS$4T V Sing [S$8.12B] US$909 Billion Capitalization less than 25% of HK.
Its trade-hub and service sectors especiallyits trade exhibition have become highly important. Even though some of it’s traditional businesses such as ports / trans- shipping in HK has been impacted or slowed down but thecompanies / or Corporates involved expanded, they become bigger than HK withWorld Class influence e.g. HPH.
But recently HK has found a newmomentum to grow – cluster of metropolis in Pearl River Delta, Guangdong – HongKong – Macao Greater Bay Area. Last year South China Guangdong Province generated $1.4T GDP 11 cities with the openingof 55 kms HK – Zhuhai – Macao Bridge to reduce journey time ½ hr compare to 3hrs now. The West Kowloon High SpeedTrain – The area which has less than 0.6% of China’s Land and only about 5% ofthe population contributed 12% to the China economy. This area growing 8.3% yr-on-yr 2016, representsone of the highest growth cluster in China.
In the case of Singapore, we need toplug into Global Market to ensure our economic growth. We have already moved up to knowledge-based,Innovation very high up on the value-chain, But nevertheless “trade” is ourbloodline, trade volume is 3 ½ times of our GDP, driven by external demand.
Whether is One-Belt-One-Road, orexternal trade we need to promote Internationalisation and facilitate growth initiatives, be part of a bigger body as Singapore is a gateway to Asean.
Last year, I sat on the committee ofSG50 SBF which formed subsequent committee on the Future Economy head our Finance Minister Mr Heng Swee Kiat. I was under the section of small businesses. As most of our members are from SME. Under the new growth model Singapore is trying very much to embrace and promote our Entrepreneur Spirit. Therefore, I encourage you to play a part ofthis Internationalisation and plug into the growth of HK new growthinitiatives. Hong Kong is also Singapore’s 3rd largest investment destination which bears testimonyto HK’s strong eco opportunities. Mrs Carrie Lam first overseas visit as Chief Executive demonstrate as a hallmark of our extensive ties. So I urge membersand friends to visit HK if need be ask for assistance through TDC or HKETO to build bridges, there is ample opportunities. The best is yet to come in the future.
This year we are very lucky to have three very well-known and highly respected HK film producers and film directors/ actors : Mr Raymond Wong Pak Ming 黃百鳴, Mr Clifton Ko Chi Sum 高志深 and Mr Karl Mark 麥加 in our presence tonight. They represent the best of HK,the HK spirit that I spoke earlier.
Tonight, our Programme Committee has put together a delightful programme for all, and I hope you will all have an enjoyable evening!
Finally, it gives me great pleasure to invite out Guest of Honor Ms Indranee Rajah, Senior Minister of State for Law and Finance, on stage to give her remarks.
Thank you!
