  • Chapter 7: Healthcare in Hong Kong
    Chapter 7: Healthcare in Hong Kong The Hong Kong Hospital Authority The Hong Kong Hospital Authority (HA) is responsible for managing all local public hospitals in Hong Kong. Staff of the HA can communicate in Chinese (mainly the Cantonese dialect) and / or English. If interpretation is needed for other languages, the HA will use reasonable endeavours to arrange for patients free interpretation services provided by third parties / consulates. Information about the HA, including the contact details of public hospitals, can be found on its website at www.ha.org.hk.Information on Accident and Emergency Departments and General Out-patient Clinics is also available in eight other languages, namely Bahasa Indonesian, Hindi, Nepali, Punjabi (Indian), Punjabi (Pakistani), Tagalog, Thai, Urdu on the website. Accident & Emergency services The Accident & Emergency (A&E) services are provided at 18 public hospitals under the HA. They deliver a high standard of service for critically ill or injured persons who need urgent medical attention. They also provide medical support for victims of disasters. To ensure that patients with more serious conditions are accorded higher priority in medical treatment, the HA adopts a triage system which classifies patients attending the A&E Departments into five categories according to their clinical conditions: critical, emergency, urgent, semi-urgent or non-urgent. Patients who do not require emergency attendance should seek medical treatment in public or private clinics.

  • Ecological Considerations for Hong Kong Express Rail Link
    Ecological Considerations for Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link Gigi Lam & Josh Lam Dr Glenn Frommer & Henry Leung AECOM / HKIEIA MTR Corporation / HKIEIA 11/F Grand Central Plaza, Tower 2 Fo Tan Railway House 138 Shatin Rural Committee Road, Shatin, Hong Kong 9 Lok King Street, Fo Tan, Shatin, Hong Kong Tel: (852) 2893 1551 Fax: (852) 2891 0305 Tel: (852) 2687 5312 Fax: (852) 2993 7577 Email: [email protected] & Email: [email protected] & [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The 142 km Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (XRL) will provide the strategic linkage from Hong Kong to the comprehensive high-speed rail network in Mainland China. This will significantly increase integration of cities, and promote business and tourism towards a greener economy. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was conducted to support the sustainable planning and design of the Hong Kong Section of the XRL, approximately 26km long. This paper shares the experiences of the EIA, focusing on the ecological aspect, a major issue as the railway corridor transverses significant conservation areas such as a RAMSAR Site and Country Parks. The project is under a fast-tracked programme, and ecological surveys and impact assessments were conducted in advance of other components of the EIA, to provide earliest inputs to Value Engineering Workshops for alternative alignment options development and evaluation. Green groups were continuously engaged in the EIA process, and participated in the development of sustainable ecological protection design. The robust ecological impact assessment was successfully used to address public concerns and demonstrated the adoption of an optimized project scheme with minimal potential impacts to the environment.
