It has prominent regional advantages in the international exchange and cooperation of vocational education along the “Belt and Road”.Mr. Feng Dajun, Deputy Director General of National Association of Vocational Education of ChinaDr. Wong Yau Kar stated that from the 1980s to 2019, vocational colleges have trained over 900,000 graduates from various industries in Hong Kong.  The Hong Kong SAR government has established a dedicated department to promote the development of vocational education.  The Vocational Training Council (VTC) was established in 1982.  The government is also vigorously promoting the establishment of the "University of Applied Sciences"(UAS), and the Metropolitan University of Hong Kong has become a UAS.  The characteristic of vocational education in Hong Kong is its high degree of internationalization, and the use of English is the key to international integration.  It is suggested that the development of vocational education should be based on future needs, the integration of industry and education, school enterprise cooperation, and the construction of a connected education system from middle school to university and even master's degree.Professor Zhao Pengfei stated that apprenticeship is the best way to achieve industry education integration and school enterprise cooperation.  The Chinese government policy requires all regions to actively carry out modern apprenticeship pilot programs through school enterprise joint enrollment and training.  The Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security both support the apprenticeship system. There are more than 1000 pilot projects for modern apprenticeship system in China, with 2480 cooperative enterprises, benefiting more than 100000 students (apprentices). The pilot project for new apprenticeship system in enterprises has trained more than 20000 employees, with a clear requirement to train 1 million new apprentices from 2019 to 2021. The important achievements of modern apprenticeship system pilot are government policies, industry standards, and school enterprise models. Modern apprenticeship system is a "dual education", "dual identity", "work study alternation", and "job training". It refers to “school+enterprise”, “student+apprenticeship”, “learning+work”, and “education+training” respectively. The development of apprenticeship system vertically connects the primary, middle, and high-level apprenticeship systems, and horizontally connects them to the integration of general education and vocational education.Dr. Liu Yi Man said that Hong Kong acted as a super connector to promote the high-quality development of the "Belt and Road" vocational education.  Promote China's vocational education to go overseas and help build an education powerhouse, with Hong Kong as the first stop, serving as a super connector for "going out " and "bringing in".  Especially in the field of internationalization and artificial intelligence, it is very important.  In the future, our country's vocational education will have great potential in international talent joint training, collaborative development of curriculum standards, and the clustering effect of overseas education.  The continuous evolution of artificial intelligence technology has brought tremendous changes to the production models of various industries.Mr. David Leung Yiu Fai said that MTR Academy was established in 2016 to cooperate with the national the Belt and Road Initiative.  It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MTR Corporation and one of the earliest corporate colleges in Hong Kong.  Our vision is to become a recognized center for railway management and technical education and research in the railway industry in Hong Kong, mainland China, and overseas.  Through the MTR Academy, there are also master's programs in rail transit, joint courses with overseas universities, and community participation.  Currently developing consulting services for the Middle East market.Professor Li Wai Chi said that the last era was the Internet+ era.  The next era is the era of Al, make good use of Al, comprehensively popularize artificial intelligence knowledge, and improve students' artificial intelligence literacy.  Relying on the platform of vocational colleges, we can use Unicom x financing to implement the policies and measures of different government departments on strengthening science and technology, education and talent.  Colleges and enterprises in the two places can rely on the country and enterprises to jointly build the Belt and Road development and provide formal vocational skills training according to their human needs at different stages of development.  Colleges and relevant administrative departments in both regions will jointly develop and construct an international vocational education and qualification system with Chinese characteristics.President Chris Cheung Kin Chung of CLP Power Academy stated that the title is "Power to Move Upward". The institute is not only studying for colleagues at the CLP Power, but can also be read to public, all students are part-time students.  There are currently multiple courses, QF architecture, jointly offered with universities.  Due to the fact that CLP Power is the most professional in the enterprise/industry, but not the most specialized in teaching, it is best to cooperate with universities to provide scenes for students to understand operations.  Collaboration with VTC, some transitional courses, these courses form an ecosystem.  Entering the mechanical and electrical industry, seeking opportunities to move upstream is to obtain a diploma (educational background). In addition to the diploma, there is also an exemption from the electrician license (industry qualification), which creates an ecological environment.  Partners include the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department, the Hong Kong Council for Accreditation of Academic and Vocational Qualifications, and the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers.Dr. Liu Yung Chau expressed his gratitude during his closing remarks at the symposium.  2024 is the most important year in the development of the COEAHK.

The first three speakers including Deputy Director General Feng Dajun, Dr. Wong Yau Kar, and Professor Zhao Pengfei giving keynote speeches from the three dimensions of "Vocational Education Going overseas", "Vocational Education Jointly Building the the Belt and Road" and "Integration of Industry and Education".  Mr. David Leung Yiu Fai, Professor Li Wai Chi, President Chris Cheung Kin Chung and Dr. Liu Yi Man participated in the symposium to promote vocational education in Hong Kong and participate in the national strategy of the Belt and Road from the perspective of enterprises and educational institutions.Group Photo: From Left Dr. Wong Yu Kar, Madam Wang Wai Ching, ProfessorWong Yuk Shan, Dr. Liu Yung Chau, Mr. Feng Dajun, Madam Wu Cheng,Dr. Liu YiMan, Professor Reggie Kwan Ching Ping  Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

香港, 2024年12月19日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 由香港大公文匯傳媒集團聯合香港中國企業協會、香港中國金融協會、香港中資證券業協會、香港公司治理公會主辦的第十四屆香港國際金融論壇暨中國證券「金紫荊獎」頒獎典禮12月19日在香港會議展覽中心舉行。中國電力國際發展有限公司（以下簡稱「中國電力」或「公司」）憑藉卓越的經營表現和完善的公司治理，榮獲2024中國證券金紫荊獎「卓越高質量發展上市公司」、「卓越投資者關係管理上市公司」兩項大獎，這一榮譽不僅是對公司過去一年高質量發展的肯定，更是對公司「世界一流綠色低碳能源供應商」的企業願景的高度認可。對中國電力來說，2024年是具有特殊意義的年份。20年前，中國電力以三座煤電廠的資產在香港聯交所上市，搭上中國經濟發展快車。經過20年的奮鬥，公司資產從3個省份擴展到除臺灣以外全國各地，資產結構從100%煤電發展到水火風光等多種能源。清潔能源裝機占比達到77.71%中國電力堅持「存量提質、增量做優、蓄勢未來」的主基調，全力推進高質量轉型發展，保障能源電力安全，培育新質生產力，努力向成為「世界一流清潔能源供應商」的戰略目標邁進。截至2024年6月底，裝機容量較20年前增長20倍、總資產增長35倍、收入增長17倍，清潔能源占比達77.71%，在社會各界的影響力顯著擴大。當前，國內電力行業發展面臨更多機遇和挑戰，新能源消納和市場化電價持續承壓，發電側和電網側改革發展不匹配等，都是亟待解決的課題。2023年國內新能源發電量占比已突破15%這個關鍵點，電力改革和新型電力系統建設處於關鍵破局階段，電力行業的高質量發展站在新的起點。中國電力在2024年逆勢而上，用半年時間就實現了去年全年利潤，並實現了資產和經營質量的三個顯著改善：一是資產結構更清潔，清潔能源裝機占比達到77%，同比提升了11個百分點，清潔能源收入占比首次超過60%，新戰略發展目標實現突破；二是盈利結構更均衡，水、火、風、光各板塊全面實現盈利，分別占比15%、22%、39%和23%；三是盈利質量更高，現金流進一步提升，經營性淨現金流同比增長67%。業績發展呈現四大亮點今年以來，中國電力業績發展呈現四大亮點。一是存量提質效果顯著，經營效益持續提升。上半年，中國電力深入研判煤價走勢，靈活調整市場煤和進口煤採購策略，上半年綜合標煤單價899.9元/噸，同比下降8.3%，節約燃料成本5.5億元。煤電容量電費獲取率約為97%，煤電度電盈利處於業內領先水平。優化水資源利用，上半年水電發電量108億千瓦時，同比增長90%。積極推進綠電、綠證交易，變現環境屬性價值合計2.66億元。順利發行全國首單CCER碳減排量掛鉤債券，發行利率創市場新低。二是公司切實推動高質量發展，堅持「有質有量、有進有退、有所為有所不為」。確保效益優先，發展方向側重大基地、海上風電、陸上風電、多能互補一體化等新能源項目，加速推動已鎖定消納主體的新能源項目。充分研判區域政策動態和電價趨勢，保證項目風險可控、收益可期。孟加拉科克斯巴紮爾風電項目三是主動扛起電力央企責任擔當，積極攻關新型電力系統「卡脖子」問題，推進戰略性新興產業發展。儲能大數據人工智能系統應用範圍進一步擴大，完成全球首創浸沒式直冷工商儲系統樣機製造，杜絕電池自燃隱患。積極佈局地熱能安全高效應用，上半年落地項目供能面積達19萬平方米，順利完成北京市房山區生態環境局辦公樓地熱供能改造。積極推進交通強國試點任務，旗下聯營公司啟源芯動力上半年交付運營換電重卡及工程機械4981台、建成充換電站183座，換電站新產品全面實現無人化。四是加大上市公司市值和ESG管理。中國電力成功引入戰略投資者長期持股，促進市場價值發掘。高效推進國務院國資委「提高央企控股上市公司質量三年行動」，緊密跟進投資者態度和建議，將市值表現作為各項決策的重要參考。各項措施形成合力，推動上半年股價上漲超過40%。公司對標香港聯交所新規及全球最佳實踐，以加入聯合國全球契約組織（UNGC）為契機，積極推進ESG管理工作，成功入選「中國ESG上市公司先鋒100（2024）」和「中央企業上市公司ESG先鋒100指數（2024）」榜單，並在中誠信綠金國際ESG評級中獲得行業內最高評級。山西省芮城縣莊上村項目「中國零碳村鎮示範村」展望未來，中國電力表示，公司堅信通過持續努力和創新，中國的能源體系將變得更加清潔、高效及可持續發展，為全球能源轉型樹立榜樣，並為實現碳中和目標奠定堅實基礎。 Copyright 2024 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

香港, 2024年12月19日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 由香港大公文匯傳媒集團聯合香港中國企業協會、香港中國金融協會、香港中資證券業協會、香港公司治理公會主辦的第十四屆香港國際金融論壇暨中國證券「金紫荊獎」頒獎典禮12月19日在香港會議展覽中心舉行。利亞德光電股份有限公司（股票代碼：300296）（以下簡稱「利亞德」或「公司」）憑藉卓越的經營表現和完善的公司治理，摘得2024中國證券金紫荊獎「卓越上市公司」大獎。利亞德是全球視效科技領創者，公司成立於1995年，是國內首家推出全彩LED顯示產品的企業、全球首家自主研發出小間距產品的企業，也是全球首家量產Micro LED顯示產品的企業，技術引領一直是公司帶動LED顯示行業發展的驅動力。全球領先技術促行業高質量發展憑藉優秀的經營業績以及科技創新領域取得的成就，利亞德先後被授予：國家技術創新示範企業、中國電子信息百強企業（北京十強）、中國軟件與信息服務百強企業、國家文化和科技融合示範基地、博士後科研工作站、工信部製造業單項冠軍產品、國家首批「十大虛擬現實製作技術應用示範單位」等多項榮譽。2024年，利亞德參編的6項國家標準、8項團體標準、4本行業白皮書成功發佈。從團體標準到行業標準，再到國家標準，無數利亞德人孜孜不倦，帶領行業建立「中國標準」，促進行業高質量創新發展。從技術創新的前沿探索，到行業標準的深度參與，利亞德不僅展現了在顯示行業的深厚積累，更以實際行動引領着整個新型顯示產業向更高質量、更寬領域邁進。利亞德以 LED 顯示為核心，憑藉全球領先的技術、豐富的產品、優質的服務，凸顯強大的「利亞德」 品牌價值。自上市以來，公司將創新驅動發展戰略貫穿企業發展始終，秉承「吃着碗裏的-看着鍋裏的-種在地裏」研發策略，在技術和產品上，保持行業領先地位。從 1998 年自主研發出國內第一塊 LED 全彩顯示產品，到 2010 年原創並命名 LED 小間距技術，再到 2020 年率先推進 Micro LED 技術和產品落地，利亞德始終以創新技術突破應用邊界，三次技術創新推動了全球 LED 顯示產業的快速高質量發展。今年的11月20日，利亞德第一期全製程自主研發的新一代高階MIP產線(Micro LED封裝技術)在無錫利晶工廠正式落地投產。預計第一期高階MIP產能可達1200KK/月，二期產能將擴至2400KK/月。利亞德致力「讓世界看見」利亞德董事長李軍表示，「利亞德，讓世界看見」的品牌理念不僅僅是希望全球用戶通過我們提供的產品及服務得到卓越的視覺體驗，更體現了利亞德作為行業龍頭的責任和擔當。今年以來，利亞德繼續在顯示應用市場擴展優勢。公司一直致力於擴大 LED 顯示產品應用市場的開拓。多年來，通過佈局文旅夜遊，帶動顯示產品在城市文旅和景觀亮化市場的應用，激發各地特色文旅釋放消費「新」熱潮；其次，超前佈局 AI 與空間計算產業，成功賦能《黑神話：悟空》遊戲製作等知名項目，同步進行動捕技術與 LED 顯示的結合拓展 ，帶動 LED 顯示在新科技領域的應用；同時，通過較強的市場敏感度，提前佈局 LED 會議一體機、影院、高端家庭影院等多個潛在市場。在產業鏈整合優勢上，利亞德自 Micro LED 技術量產便開始佈局產業鏈，已經與富采控股共同整合了晶片-封裝-應用的健全產業鏈。同時，通過股權投資及技術合作的方式，健全產業鏈上的必備輔助產品，如電源、視頻處理器、控制系統、Asic 驅動晶片等。加強海外市場佈局力度今年5 月 24 日，國家發展改革委等六部門印發《推動文化和旅遊領域設備更新實施方案》，該方案中明確提出舞臺顯示設備更新、影院 LED 屏放映系統更新以及 4K 超高清設備建設等行動，將會直接拉動LED 顯示屏市場的需求。隨着觀眾對於高端視聽影音體驗需求的不斷增加及國家政策支持下，LED電影屏市場將進一步得到發展，從落地速度、品牌合作、多方推進品牌營銷等舉措明顯可見。從行家說《LED 顯示產業季度分析報告》分析來看，今年上半年，國內整體市場需求仍然低迷，供過於求，市場競爭激烈，多數 LED 顯示屏企業加強了對海外市場的佈局力度，引導 LED 顯示產能出海。上半年，亞非拉市場需求仍持續增長，歐美市場需求較為穩定。由於市場環境帶來的激烈競爭，未來資源將進一步向頭部企業聚集，利亞德有望在行業整合中獲取更大的市場份額。目前，公司的Micro LED 無論是 MIP 結構還是 COB 結構，需求持續提升。利亞德方面透露，公司採用國內直銷、海外渠道的方式完善佈局全球市場，可分別滿足高端、中端及下沉市場的需求，同時還佈局了租賃和電子商務的銷售模式，並不斷提升服務模式。未來，利亞德將繼續秉持「創新驅動發展」理念，不斷突破技術壁壘，深化標準制定，推動新型顯示技術邁向更加輝煌的明天。 Copyright 2024 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
