Hong Kong Maritime and Port Board

The Hong Kong Maritime and Port Board (HKMPB) (香港海運港口局) is a Hong Kong Government body, with responsibility to:

• assist the government in devising maritime and port-related strategies and initiatives;
• facilitate collaboration between stakeholders, and work closely with the Government;
• create a maritime business-friendly environment;
• foster the long term development of Hong Kong’s maritime industry and port; and
• support and promote Hong Kong’s maritime community.

The board was established on 1 April 2016, by the merging of the former Hong Kong Maritime Industry Council and Hong Kong Port Development Council, in a move welcomed by the maritime industry as signalling more support for them.^[1]

Under the HKMPB are three committees: the Maritime and Port Development Committee; the Promotion and External Relations Committee; and the Manpower Development Committee.^[2]

Membership

There are 19 non-official, eight institutional and three ex-officio members of the Board, which is chaired by the Secretary for Transport and Housing, currently Prof Anthony Cheung.^[3]
