FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 18, 2009 -- Hi Flying aviation is one of the leading providers of air charters and air ambulance in Asia including India, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan, China and Singapore.

Not to emphasise the clean air policy employed by all major air charter companies in Asia -In Hong Kong as many as 500 companies and the government signed a Clean Air Charter pledging to work for environmental protection at a Business Clear Air Conference yesterday.

Officiating at the charter's signing ceremony, Chief Executive Donald Tsang, signed on behalf of the government which is Hong Kong's largest employer.

If properly followed the charter would bring significant improvement to Hong Kong's air quality, he said, adding the Council for Sustainable Development would soon conduct a study on measures to tackle the pollution problem.

Around 500 organizations and companies signed the charter listing six areas in which they could take measures to improve air quality.

The Clean Air Charter requires signatories to identify relevant standards of emission, review their own performance in relation to those standards and make solid plans to meet them on a voluntary basis.

It also demands continuous monitoring for large and medium polluters and regular disclosure of their total emissions, energy and fuel use.

While stressing the need to tackle air pollution it was necessary to strike a balance, Tsang said. .

"We are serious about doing the best we can," Tsang said. "In addition we will continue to institute policies, review air quality objectives and introduce legislation on pollution control."

Special measures like cutting air-conditioning by half at home and work, encouraging car pooling, the use of public transport, flexible working hours to smooth out peak traffic and reducing the number of vehicles on streets would be taken to tackle the problem.

"The Council for Sustainable Development will soon conduct an exercise to engage the public and forge some consensus on whether such measures should be adopted in Hong Kong on days when the air pollution index is expected to be high," said Tsang.

Denying that the investment environment was affected because of poor air quality the chief executive said the number of overseas companies with regional operations in Hong Kong had grown by 50 per cent since 1997.
