数据库香港船东会致全体会员：沉痛悼念董建华先生
致各位会员：
我们怀着沉痛的心情通知各位，尊敬的大紫荆勋贤董建华先生于2026年9月8日晚间在家人的陪伴下安详离世，享年89岁。香港船东会谨此向董氏家族致以最深切的慰问。
董先生与香港船东会渊源深厚、情谊长久。他于1976年至1977年间担任本会主席，那正是他卓越事业生涯的奠基阶段；其后，他更接受本会邀请出任赞助人，以其威望与智慧惠及业界。他对航运业的贡献并非偶然，而是根植于血脉：董先生1937年生于上海，出身船王董浩云家族，自幼浸润于航运事业，1980年代初父亲逝世后接掌家族企业。
航运之外，董先生在公务服务领域的建树在香港历史上亦属空前。1997年7月，他获任命为香港特别行政区首任行政长官，主持香港回归祖国及“一国两制”方针的实施，并连任至2005年3月。任内，他带领香港度过了全球航运低迷期、非典疫情及亚洲金融风暴等严峻挑战。卸任行政长官后，他当选中国人民政治协商会议全国委员会副主席，并创办及领导团结香港基金，继续毕生致力于服务香港及促进国际交流。
我们邀请各位会员一同回顾董先生非凡的贡献——他既是带领香港重要航运企业渡过危机的船东，也是我们特别行政区的创始首长，更是荣登国家领导层最高行列的政治家。他从本会主席到中华人民共和国领导人的历程，是我们航运界莫大的骄傲。
本会主席Richard Hext先生代表协会致悼词如下：
“董先生对香港航运业的贡献之重大，难以言表。他协助将家族航运公司东方海外发展为集装箱航运业的巨头之一，并于1976至1977年担任香港船东会主席，其后更成为本会赞助人。他为香港服务的热忱、智慧与决心，在1997至2005年出任香港首任行政长官时获得更广泛认可。本会同仁深切哀悼董先生的离世，同时对他的奉献精神永怀感激，他的付出极大地改善了我们每个人的生活。”
本会将下半旗志哀，有关追悼安排或会员致祭的具体事宜将另行通知。
恳请各位会员与我们一同静默追思，缅怀这位为业界及香港作出卓越贡献的杰出人物。
谨致最崇高的敬意。

Dear Members,
It is with profound sorrow that we inform you of the passing of The Honourable Tung Chee-hwa, GBM, who left us peacefully on the evening of 8 September 2026, at the age of 89, surrounded by his family. On behalf of the Hong Kong Shipowners Association (HKSOA), we extend our deepest condolences to the Tung family during this time of profound loss.
Mr Tung's connection to HKSOA runs deep and is long-standing. He served as our Association's Chairman from 1976 to 1977, at a formative stage in his distinguished career, and in later years honoured our Association by accepting the role of Patron, lending his stature and wisdom to our community. His contribution to the maritime sector was not incidental but foundational: born in Shanghai in 1937 into the family of shipping magnate Tung Chao Yung, he was steeped in shipping from childhood and later took over the family enterprise after his father's passing in the early 1980s.
Beyond shipping, Mr. Tung's public service record is unparalleled in Hong Kong's history. He was appointed the first Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in July 1997, presiding over Hong Kong's historic return to Chinese sovereignty and the implementation of the "One Country, Two Systems" principle, and served two terms until March 2005. He steered Hong Kong through a severe global shipping downturn, the SARS outbreak, and the Asian financial crisis. Following his tenure as Chief Executive, he was elected Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and went on to found and chair the Our Hong Kong Foundation, continuing his lifelong commitment to Hong Kong and to bridging international relations.
We invite members to reflect on the remarkable breadth of Mr. Tung's contributions, as a shipowner who steered a great Hong Kong shipping house through crisis, as the founding leader of our Special Administrative Region, and as a statesman who rose to the highest ranks of national leadership. His journey from our Association's Chairman to a State Leader of the People's Republic of China is a source of great pride for our maritime community.
Our Chairman, Mr. Richard Hext, shared the following tribute on behalf of the Association:
“It’s hard to overstate the importance of Mr Tung’s contribution to Hong Kong shipping. He helped build his family shipping company, OOCL, into one of the giants in the container industry, and he served as Chairman of the Hong Kong Shipowners Association from 1976 to 1977, later becoming Patron of the HKSOA. His energy, wisdom, and determination to serve Hong Kong received much wider recognition when he became Hong Kong’s first Chief Executive in 1997-2005. We at the Association deeply mourn Mr Tung’s departure but remain grateful for his dedication, which greatly changed our lives for the better.”
The Association will fly its flag at half-mast in Mr. Tung's memory, and further details regarding any memorial arrangements or opportunities for members to pay their respects will be communicated in due course.
We ask that members join us in observing a moment of reflection for a man who served both our industry and our city with distinction.
With deepest respect,
Hong Kong Shipowners Association (HKSOA)
