(name of your firm ) and the Year 2000

Undoubtedly, by now, you have heard about the issue commonly known as the “year 2000” or Y2K - problem and the possibility of computer malfunctions as we move into the new
millennium. ( name of your firm) is taking the Y2K challenge very seriously and our goal is to continue to provide the level of service and support you‘ve come to expect from us into the Year 20000 and beyond.

What is the Y2K Problem?

The Y2K problem refers to the possibility that computers might not perform properly near or after January 1st 2000 because of the inability to recognize the year 2000 in date-sensitive applications. When computers were first designed both memory and storage space were limited. Programs were written with only two spaces for the year, leaving out the designated “19”. For example, “1999” is stored as “99”. The concern is that some systems may interpret “00” as 1900 instead of 2000, possibly resulting in computer malfunctions, and erroneous processing. The Year 20000 problem is a worldwide challenge that effects virtually every industry.

　

What is ( name of your firm ) doing

(name of your firm ) began addressing the Y2K issue in 1997 and has undertaken a detailed plan for resolution. This plan involves fixing many of our computer systems and software, and decommissioning and replacing orders. Our Y2K teams are also working with the critical businesses that provide services to us and with whom we work to ascertain their Y2K readiness. these key external parties include merchants, third party processors, vendors, utilities, telecommunications systems, suppliers, and regulatory agencies. In addition, we are developing contingency plan to help ensure that we can continue to service our customers in the event a Y2K problem occurs.

Will the Y2K problem affect use of the service from (name of your firm )

We are working both internally and with key third parties of companies and organizations in the industry to minimize the effect of Y2K on all investors. Due to the complexity of the Y2K problem, including the many linkages with third party systems and networks, it is possible that investor could be affected. As always, we are committed to working with any investor who experience any problems.

　

Where can I get more information about the Y2K problem?

We encourage you to learn as much as possible about the Y2K issue. For more information concerning Y2K readiness efforts, please refer to the website of HKSAR at

(公司名稱) 與公元二千年

深信您已聽聞在千禧年即將來臨之際，有可能出現“千年蟲”問題。那是因為有些電腦系統及電子儀器可能會失靈或運作出錯。(公司名稱 ) 亦面對這個挑戰，期望在2000年及以後的日子裡，我們仍能繼續為您提供優人一等的服務。

　

什麼是“千年蟲”問題

“千年蟲”問題即是所謂“二千年問題”，是指在接近2000年或踏入2000年1月1日之後，電腦系統及電子儀器可能會失靈或運作出錯。原因是在電腦初面世時，記憶體之容量有限，系統設計均以兩位數字表示年份，例如“99”即作為“1999”，但踏入2000年時，系統很自然當作是“1900”而並不是“2000”年，以致電腦運作失靈，或資料失誤。因此，“千年蟲”問題實際上是對全球各行各業均有影響的一大挑戰。

　

(公司名稱) 如何防範“千年蟲”問題

本公司在1997年已開始為防範“千年蟲”而作出種種安排，包括調整，添置及更換電腦系統及軟件，我們更特別成立了“千年蟲問題專責小組”，與有關組織，包括商戶，供占應商，公共事業機構，電訊公司，及有關監察及政府部門，保持緊密聯繫，以確保所有電腦系統均能作出相應的配合。此外，我們更制定了一系列的應變措施，即使“千年蟲問題”一旦出現，我們仍能繼續如常為您提供優質服務。

　

“千年蟲問題、會否影響您日常的投資

我們已積極與各主要業務上有關機構緊密聯繫，務求減低“千年蟲”對各投資者的影響。由於“千年蟲問題” 頗為複雜，同時牽涉到我們與多個不同業務團體的電腦及網絡系統，如果您遇上這些不便，也許並非“千年蟲問題”，歡迎與我們聯絡，我們會樂意為您效勞的。
