The Company is pleased to announce that Mr. Alan Wong Chi-kong has been appointed to the post of the Commissioner for Transport with effect from 18 June 2005 and has therefore, by virtue of his appointment, become a Director of the Company on the same date.

Mr. Wong (aged 49) has not entered into any contract of service with the Company and nor is Mr. Wong appointed for a specific term. Pursuant to the Articles of Association of the Company, Directors appointed by the Chief Executive pursuant to the MTR Ordinance are not required to retire by rotation at the annual general meetings of the Company.

Mr. Wong is not related to any Directors, senior management or substantial or controlling shareholders of the Company except that he holds the post of the Commissioner for Transport and The Financial Secretary Incorporated, which holds shares in the Company in trust for the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Government”), is a controlling shareholder of the Company. As at the date of this announcement, Mr. Wong was not interested in any shares of the Company within the meaning of Part XV of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (“SFO”) as recorded in the register required to be kept under section 352 of the SFO or as otherwise notified to the Company and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited pursuant to the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers.

In the last 25 years, Mr. Wong has served in various bureaux and departments of the Government. Before joining the Transport Department, he was the Government Chief Information Officer until January 2005.

The Company hereby also announces that as Mr. Robert Charles Law Footman ceased to hold the post of the Commissioner for Transport with effect from 18 June 2005, he also ceased to be a Director of the Company on the same date.
