HKBU students win contest with logistics study on MTRC-KCRC merger

Students from Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) have won an inter-university contest for a logistics study on a merger between railway corporations, the MTRC and KCRC.

The students presented practical solutions and recommendations to judges of the contest which focused on transport and logistics problems of great topical interest.

The event, held on March 20, was organised by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in Hong Kong (CILTHK) and the School of Professional and Continuing Education of the University of Hong Kong.

HKBU's winning team consisted of Lau Man-ying, Tong Chun-man and Wu Xionghui (BBA-Information Systems Management); Gao Junjie (BBA-Accounting); Tsai Yin-wang (BBA-China Business Studies), and Tsui Chun-hei (Geography).

They were supervised by Dr. Shi Xinping, Associate Professor of Finance and Decision Sciences, and coached by postgraduate research students, Simon Yuen and Simon Chan.

In last year's contest, a team from HKBU won the first runner-up award. Also last year, the university's School of Business was co-organiser of CILT Student Day, which was held concurrently with the contest.
