(5 August 2025) Hong Kong has been affected by severe weather conditions, with serious flooding and traffic disruption across multiple districts. The Hong Kong and China Gas Company Limited (Towngas) Community Relations Focus Team (CRFT) has swiftly responded to the emergency situation. The Towngas CRFT 25th Anniversary Dinner scheduled for tonight at the Kai Tak Sports Park has been cancelled, with the dinner food redistributed by CRFT members to elderly care homes.

Meanwhile, this afternoon, Towngas management and the Towngas Volunteer Service Team formed multiple groups to distribute food across various districts, supporting grassroots families and those in need.

Additionally, Towngas frontline technicians remain at their posts on standby, while Towngas CRFT maintains close communication with all districts to jointly respond to emergencies and urgent incidents.

Ms Catherine Wong Pui-yee, Towngas Head of Corporate Affairs and Government Relations, said that any community members requiring emergency repairs to gas appliances or related services can contact Towngas CRFT in each district for prompt assistance. Should any district require volunteer support, CRFT members will also provide help.
