COO David Eitemiller Comments
It has been 8 months since I stepped into the arena of Hung Hing with Matthew [Yum, CEO] and the rest of the Hung Hing team here. Without any hesitation at all, I can say it is one of the best decisions I have made during my 22 year career in Asia.
Notwithstanding the monumental changes we have all witnessed as a result of all the financial events during this same time, I consider it a tremendous privilege to be in leadership at Hung Hing and look forward to what we have ahead of us. I am impressed with the quality of the business base we have, the loyalty of the people who are on this team with us and particularly the respect and commitment we have from customers who have trusted us for years and trust us now with their print and packaging needs in challenging times. We have a great history and a truly great base upon which to move forward.
Our success will only be measured by what you see happening in our levels of service, quality and value we add to your business and I hope in future issues to be able to introduce you to some of the many initiatives we are working on to deliver that to you. We have more challenging times ahead as we navigate through the immediate economic environment, but for us it only creates an even greater opportunity to push forward with our agenda for improvement. I look forward to working with many of you as those improvements take shape and make their way to your business experience with us. Watch this space...

China Updates - Map Printing
The Chinese government has recently tightened the regulations further for books and products containing maps. This includes all maps whether it is a world map, China, Europe or even illustrations of individual countries. These now need to be sent to the 'State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping' for approval before printing. This process normally takes 3-4 weeks and you should allow this in your schedule if printing in our China factories. However, we also have the option to print such products at our Hong Kong plant, which does not have the same regulations. Please check with your account manager for further details and we will keep you updated.
