The Ngong Ping 360 Limited Company is a subsidiary of the MTR Corporation. Its principal business is to operate the Ngong Ping Cable Car and Ngong Ping Village. It is a tourism project on Lantau Island in Hong Kong. Ngong Ping 360 serves to connect Tung Chung, on the north coast of Lantau and itself linked to central Hong Kong by the Tung Chung rail line, with the Ngong Ping area in the hills above. The Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car ride is a visually spectacular 5.7km journey, the longest bi-cable ropeway in Asia. During the 25 minute journey, travelers can see panoramic views over the North Lantau Country Park, the South China Sea, Hong Kong International Airport, the Tung Chung valley, Ngong Ping Plateau and surrounding terrain and waterways. As visitors approach Ngong Ping, they can see The Big Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery.
However, after the opening of Ngong Ping 360, it is subject to social criticism, the Ngong Ping 360 has had repeated problems since its launch. During the cable car’s test run, 109 full cabins were stranded for three hours after a slight collision between two cars. More seriously, in June 2007, one of the cars fell from the ropeway, although it’s important to note that this was during extreme testing and no one was inside the car. These negative news, it will affect Hong Kong's tourism image, reducing the visitors to come to Hong Kong's desire, we believe that many of these events are because of management occur problems. In the following report, we will analysis the problems Ngong Ping 360 is facing that may due to the reason of poor management function, following by some recommendations.
