Annual General Meeting 1999


The Annual General Meeting  of the Association was held in the Hong Kong Polytechnic University on 30th June, 1999,and officers for the Executive Committee 1999 / 2001 were duly selected.

A pre-meeting seminar given by Dr. Philip Chan reported  the joint project about the reading habits of young children studying from primary four to secondary one.  (Please refer to the Research section of the Association Briefing for details.)The talk generated thought-provoking  questions worthy of more discussion in future meetings.
