We refer to your November 5 issue which had a special feature on 'Awards for Industry 1998'. This stated that 'Shell was the first oil company in Hong Kong to receive the ISO 14001 environmental management system accreditation, and its environmental policy forms the basis of this system which was installed last year'. This statement is wrong. Mobil Oil Hong Kong Limited in fact is the first oil company in Hong Kong and the first oil company in the world to receive the ISO 14000 certification. We received this ISO accreditation back in 1996 which was two years ago. RAYMOND WONG Director - Government Relations and Public Affairs Mobil Oil Hong Kong Limited
