2008 The
CEO of the Year Winner Statement:
The recipient
of this year's CEO of the Year 2008, Mr. Tom Mehrmann, Chief
Executive of Ocean Park said, "Almost everybody in Hong Kong, from
three year-old's to 83 year old's, can sing Ocean Park's theme
「去玩!去癲!嚟Ocean Park!」 (Go play! Go wild! Go to Ocean Park!) This is
what drives the people of Ocean Park to give guests the most
immersive, experiences and memories. Coming to Ocean Park is like
setting foot in another world - of lush greenery surrounded by the
majestic South China Sea; and a world of amazing animals. Then, as
a complete contrast, we also have gravity-defying thrill rides, and
our five annual events, with Halloween Bash being one of the most
renowned! While we are a not-for-profit organisation, we have seen
five successive years of record -breaking attendance, revenue and
surplus. We are ranked by an international authority as the No 15
theme park of the world. This tells us we are giving what our
guests want, and I thank all our guests and business partners who
have supported us. Additionally, a big thank you to all the Ocean
Park staff is in order. To me, the CEO of The Year 2008 award is a
recognition of the team effort from everyone at Ocean Park.
Mr. Tom
Mehrmann, Chief Executive
Ocean Park
