Aquis Celebrate Derby Day Success

Aquis Chief Executive Officer Shane McGrath said the Derby Day achievements were a credit to the devotion of Mr Fung to his company, his team, the industry and the community.

"I know it's our tagline, but our future really is bright," he said.

Mr Fung said: 'Last night I woke up at 3am and that is the moment it all sunk in;that without my team we wouldn't have seen yesterday's result and I am so excited for the future."

Mr Fung has been a long term investor in Australiaand is determined to ensures a share of his successes is filtered to the community via sponsorship and donation.

It's no secret the struggles of the Northern New South Wales region with one of the worst droughts seen in years. In a small community such as Murrurundi, this affects the livelihood businesses, families and the children of our future.

Earlier this year Aquis Farm invested in a bright future for students in the area by sponsoring the Pre-Kinder Program at Murrurundi Public School, which provides a qualified teacher one day a week to work one-on-one with the pre-kinder students.

The program will operate as a normal school day from 9am to 3pm allowing the children to ease into the routine and education of normal school life.

Aquis Farm's inception however was in Queensland, the state Mr Fung first fell in love with in Australia. During the recent strike from within the Queensland racingindustry, Mr Fung felt it necessary to provide the state with much needed support.

In conjunction with Racing NSW, Aquis Farm committed a minimum payment of $1000 to all Queensland trained starters that finish outside the top 10 at Australian Turf Club's, Canterbury Park night meeting on Friday 19th October 2018 (the opening fixture of Sydney's night racing season) and Randwick on Saturday 20th October 2019.
