Dear Members, Green Messengers and other supporters, CA has amended the membership period and renewal discount policy of our Individual Membership. Details are as follows: 1. The cut-off time of Individual Membership period will no longer be the year end, i.e. 31st December of every year. The membership period of Individual members enrolled in or after January 2010 will be 12 months. The membership expiry date will be listed on the member card. 2. The half-priced discount for Individual Members who enrolled in the second half of the year (July – December) will be cancelled. 3. An Individual Member can have a $100 discount for renewing the membership for the next 3 years in advance, while a $200 discount will be offered for a 5-year-renewal. 4. An Individual Member can have a $500 discount for a Life Member upgrade. Also, we switched to issue
e-member cards and e-receipts in order to save papers. If you have
other suggestions regarding our membership affairs, please feel free
to contact Mr. Shum, our Membership and Publication Officer through
email (joe@cahk.org.hk) and
phone (2272 0377). Thank you very much for your support. Best Regards, |
