The launch earlier this month by Cathay Pacific of a thrice-weekly direct Hong Kong/Cape Town service was celebrated with fanfare in the Mother City with the airline giving away two return tickets to any of their destinations worldwide in a lucky draw.

Bernard Henning of the PPECB was the winner – and his prize was handed over at a function hosted by the Exporters Club Western Cape (ECWC) in collaboration with the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) to celebrate the milestone event.
