(Translation) Islands District Council Paper IDC 49/2016 Question on district administration of north-eastern Lantau Island Ms. Amy YUNG notified this Council that she would raise the following enquiry at the Islands District Council meeting to be held on 18 April this year: “ According to the Constituency Boundary Maps in respect of the 2015 District Council Election, the north-eastern part of Lantau Island (including Sunny Bay, Penny’s Bay and Sham Shui Kok) adjacent to Tung Chung, Pak Mong and Discovery Bay is put under Tsuen Wan District instead of Islands District. If there are any projects or policy proposals for north-eastern Lantau Island, only the Tsuen Wan District Council (TWDC) but not the Islands District Council (IDC) will probably be consulted. As a result, IDC and Lantau residents may not know about the tentative project proposals or policy formulation for north-eastern Lantau Island, nor can they monitor the work of the Administration on the whole Lantau Island effectively. As such, I request the Home Affairs Department and the Electoral Affairs Commission to arrange representatives to attend the meeting and explain whether they will consider incorporating the whole Lantau Island into the constituencies of IDC if the boundaries of the constituencies are re-delineated in future, so as to ensure the integrity of Lantau Island in respect of district administration and to facilitate the discharge of work by all parties. I also hope that the Islands District Office and the Tsuen Wan District Office will arrange representatives to attend the meeting and explain whether a liaison mechanism will be established to ensure that both IDC and TWDC will be consulted on the projects and policy proposals of the Administration regarding north-eastern Lantau. ” Islands District Council Secretariat File Ref.: IS 111/4/01 Date: 30 March 2016 .

Section Iv : Concluding Remarks
SECTION IV : CONCLUDING REMARKS 1. Stage One of the public consultation programme for the HK2030 Study formally concluded in April 2001, having established a benchmark for future public consultation exercises. We consider that the public consultation programme has secured a sound basis for continuous dialogue with both the general public and stakeholder groups about the many issues raised by the study. The findings of the Stage One consultation process will serve as important input to the study process. 2. We are currently devoting our efforts to the examination of the key study areas and the many ideas/suggestions that have been received in the consultation exercise. 3. In addition to the examination of the key study areas, we are developing evaluation criteria based on the revised planning objectives. The issues identified in the study process and the evaluation criteria will be consolidated and presented for comment during the Stage Two public consultation exercise, which is scheduled to take place towards the end of 2001. 4. We hope this Stage One Public Consultation Report provides a solid foundation for further community discussion and exchange of views regarding the HK2030 Study. In this regard, we intend to organise a briefing for interested parties to explain and elaborate on the various responses provided in this report. Meanwhile, we welcome any further views which can be addressed to: HK2030 Feedback Co-ordinator Planning Department, Strategic Planning Section 16/F.

In Tearly times people inhabited only a few islands. Among them the best-known are Cheung Chau and Tai O on Lantau Island; Mui Wo and Peng Chau are also important. Mr. Charles Mok, former CLP Organization Development Manager, and Mr. Cheng Ka Shing, former CLP Regional Manager, have been serving the people of the Islands District for many years. During the early years of the 1960s, Lord Lawrence Kadoorie initiated the expansion of the Rural Electrification Scheme to Lantau Island. At that time there were very few people (less !"# !"#$%&'() than 30 families) living in Ngong Ping and Ngong Ping, where the great Buddha Statue is situated, is the centre of Hong Kong’s Buddhism around Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island. Ngong Ping got its electricity supply between 1964 and 1965, while the bungalows at Tai O had received electricity supply earlier. Since the bungalows were mainly built with iron sheets, the installation of electricity was very difficult. The people there used a kind of wood named “Kun Dian” as posts to hold the electric cables.

A Case Study of Hong Kong YWCA, Tai O YICK, Man Kin A
Ecological Change and Organizational Legitimacy Repair: A Case Study of Hong Kong YWCA, Tai O YICK, Man Kin A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Sociology The Chinese University of Hong Kong August 2011 Abstract of thesis entitled: Ecological Change and Organizational Legitimacy Repair: A Case Study of Hong Kong YWCA, Tai O Submitted by YICK, Man Kin for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in August 2011 ii Abstract This thesis studies how an organization maintained its legitimacy in response to the changing ecology. Through this study, the dynamics between state and social service sector in Hong Kong in the past two decades will be illuminated. This study draws on concepts from literature on organizational legitimacy, stakeholder analysis, and nonprofit studies. Through a qualitative case study, I attempt to illustrate how a social service organization (SSO), Hong Kong YWCA, differed in strategies of legitimacy repair after challenges from a Tai O rural consultative body, government departments, and other parts of the society in two time periods: the District Board election in 1988 and post-disaster relief during 2008-10 (the River Crab Saga). I aim to provide an explanation of more consistent, unified, and less complied response in the earlier case but less consistent, unified and more compliance with stakeholders' demands in the latter case - the high level of change in salience among YWCA stakeholders in the latter dispute. Two factors resulted in such a change: 1) the less stable funding environment due to Lump Sum Grant System, and 2) the intensified struggle between pro-Beijing and pro-democracy factions due to party penetration of society and rise of popular political awareness.
