23 July 2001
Hong Kong, July 23, 2001ˇKRoadShow's programme host recruitment entered into a new stage today, with the commencement of a voting exercise by passengers to elect their most desirable programme hosts.

Passengers on board vehicles installed with the RoadShow system can cast their votes via their mobile phones in the coming two weeks beginning today after viewing the electioneering messages by the 10 finalists shortlisted earlier this month.

RoadShow's Chief Programme Officer Eric Yeung said the voting exercise would end on Sunday, August 5. Statistics will be collated and adjudication panel's marks will be added to elect the most talented and popular programme hosts.

Results of the recruitment would be announced in the middle of August, Mr Yeung said, and the new programme hosts would come to meet passengers on RoadShow in September the earliest.

Mr Yeung said, "Passengers' response to this recruitment campaign has been overwhelming. We are confident that we can elect energetic and dynamic people to be our programme hosts.

"We now invite passengers to cast their votes, simply because we would like them to continue to support RoadShow and take part in our activities, so as to make passengers' vehicle journeys more enjoyable."
