[July 16, 2010 – Guangzhou, China] ACI Asia-Pacific Regional Director, Mrs. Maggie Kwok attended the 1st Pan-Pearl River Delta Airport Co-operation & Development Forum which opened on July 15 in Guangzhou, China and delivered a speech on the theme “Key Success Factors of Hub Development”.

“The aviation industry faced lots of challenges in 2009 such as the global financial crisis, the outbreak of swine flu and continuing threat of terrorism. The recent recovery of the world’s economy has been led by Asia-Pacific and it is reassuring that the latest traffic figures reflects strong rebound of passenger and cargo traffic for Asia-Pacific, ahead of the other regions of the world.” Mrs. Kwok said.
