"Population Ageing and Us"
Inter-school Webpage Design Contest

To encourage students to take an interest in the MPF System and the social issues on the ageing population, the MPFA has jointly organised a "Population Ageing and Us" Inter-school Webpage Design Contest with the Elderly Commission and Sing Tao Daily. The contest provided the opportunity for participants to develop team work and a proactive learning attitude.

Students at Form 1 to 3 were invited to participate. Under the guidance of a team leader and a subject teacher, participating teams were required to submit a webpage design and a report for assessment. Chaired by the Hon. Tam Yiu-chung, Chairman of the Elderly Commission, the Judging Panel comprised Professor Iris Chi, Committee Member of the Elderly Commission; Ms. Kandy C.K. Cheung, Deputy Chief Editor of Sing Tao Daily; Mr. Lee Kai-man, Founding Member of the Hong Kong Senior IT Advocates; and Mr. Ernest Lee, Executive Director of the MPFA.

A total of 65 teams from 33 secondary schools made their submissions in the event which started in December 2002. The Judging Panel announced on 30 May 2003 the winners of the contest as follows:
