Cathay, HKTB celebrate

Cathay Pacific Airways and the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) recently ushered in the year of the horse via a dinner celebration at the Pan Pacific Hotel. Friends from the travel industry and media were greeted by Cathay Pacific's country manager Adrian Harley and HKTB's David Leung who flew in for the occasion. The airline's sales and marketing team, dressed in Chinese-inspired outfits, entertained the guests. The fun-filled night included a mime, feng shui master Johnny Young, lion and dragon dances, a performance by singer Randy Santiago, a live version of the Sing-Alis game (won by Ricky Ordonez of Delmar Travel and Carolina Maala of Pan Pacific). Rene Lazaro of Infinite Travel won a Hong Kong trip for being in the best costume, as did Malu del Casal who won the trip in a raffle.
