The construction industry affects our everyday life. Buildings and public facilities located around us – such as the airport, piers, hospitals, commercial and residential buildings – are built by the collective efforts of people in various lines of work in the construction industry. Over the past decade, Hong Kong has undergone social and economic changes. The construction industry is hit by recession and went into transition: workforce for the industry starts to age, and supply of manpower fails to meet demand. How will the industry meet challenges that come with the imminent launch of infrastructural projects? The spirit and work ethics of contractors, engineers and construction site workers have helped them weather the industry’s recession. They are also proud of projects that were constructed with their involvement. Narrator: John Culkin
