Honorary Professor: Since his graduation from HKU in 1969 with a BA (Economics) degree, Mr. Wong spent four years working in the private sector, his last position being a manager in an international shipping company. In 1973, he joined the Hong Kong Government as an Administrative Officer and worked in many departments and bureaus covering such areas as district affairs, finance, transport, environment and trade. During 1991 to 1994, he worked in Geneva as Hong Kong's Permanent Representative to the GATT and took part in the multilateral trade negotiations leading to the formation of the WTO. In 1995, he became the Secretary for Education and Manpower, a position he continued to hold when China resumed sovereignty over Hong Kong on 1 July 1997. During 2000 to 2006, when Mr Wong was Secretary for the Civil Service, he reduced the size of the Hong Kong civil service from 200,00 to 160,000 and adjusted the salaries of civil servants downwards three times. This was aimed at containing civil service expenditure when Hong Kong experienced the most severe economic downturn in recent years. Mr Wong was Secretary for Commerce, Industry and Technology when he retired from public service in 2007. Within a year of his retirement, Mr Wong has completed a Master Degree Course in Buddhism in HKU and written a book on his last 12 years as a principal official in the Hong Kong Government.
