On the retirement of Miss Tai, Mrs Yeung said, "Miss Tai has rendered 38 years of loyal and dedicated service to the community of Hong Kong.

She proactively addressed the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and steered the department's adoption of technology for further enhancing service quality and operational efficiency.
