Traditionally, it is difficult to promote a women's business organisation in the media as there are over 250 women's organisations in Hong Kong . Unless there are specific business and finance issues, and if the members being profiled are famous, most newspaper and magazines will not profile a women's business organisation or print news on their activities.
The above-captioned events and publication have raised the profile of the Association in the Hong Kong business community and among other BPW Clubs and Federations around the world.
Anna J H Fang was the president of the Association in 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001,(2002) and 2003. |
