PLEASE NOTE:
Our new home, the East Kong Yick Building has been under construction for over a year with completion at the end of this year. As a result, we must close our current site for several months to move into our new home. Unfortunately, due to our closing on December 1, 2007, we will not be able to provide any onsite services including tours until our expected Grand Opening in June 2008. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause you and we look forward to seeing you in our new home. |
