SPORTS FeDeRATIOn & OLYMPIC COMMITTee OF HOnG KOnG, CHInA AnnuAL Report 2015-16 4 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT NOTICE OF THE 66TH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 5 Message from the President Much has changed but the tradition has not, not by a single iota, with our Sports Federation and Olympic Committee in the eventful and fruitful past year. This is as our organization should be doing because what is good has to continue and what is essential remains. We introduced a quarterly newsletter, the Olympic Voice, in October 2015 to keep the community abreast of our progress and elucidate our intentions. The pamphlet, available in print and online, is today a means to state our case and make public our records. The year has also been one for the Olympics, from preparations, meets and trials, and finally to the culmination in the Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro where our sporting representatives attained respectable results against a field of the elite, the best of the best. Within the movement, we have duly bid farewell to veteran administrators and leaders who contributed more than we could have imagined for which we are grateful. This has ushered in a new generation to receive the proverbial baton in this perpetual relay. Our Secretariat, from the Office of the Honorary Secretary General to members of the SF&OC, has been rejuvenated and is still as faithful as ever to the vital mission of propagating the ideals we espouse for the sports we love. While the Yearbook surveys our deeds and celebrates our achievements through the feats of our athletes, it also has to remind us of the collective challenges ahead because the past is the foundation for the future. Our wish is not only to meet but also to exceed our sporting goals by redoubling our effort because no one can afford to slacken the pace while elsewhere similar strides are taken in a competition that is local, regional and global.
