Serving as a regional headquarters for Asia-Pacific, the new Chase Manhattan Tower epitomises the modern working place where the latest advances in technology can be operated in user-friendly surroundings.

Financial Secretary Donald Tsang will cut the ribbon at a special ceremony today to mark the dedication of the tower.

Five minutes' walk from the Sha Tin KCR station, the Chase Manhattan Corporation occupies eight floors of the tower, which was completed last year.

The company has bought seven floors of the building and leases one.

The building houses almost 1,000 operations from the region and Hong Kong.

An 'intelligent' building, the structure features a fibre-optic backbone that connects all the floors, allowing for rapid transfer of data.
