I would particularly address this message to Professor Patrick Lau Sau Shing who represents my Functional Constituency in Legco. Patrick has often requested comment and feedback from his constituents - and the comments contained in the attached document fully convey my views. I am happy to share these views with all panel members. I appeal to all in the panel to consider the future of Lantau extremely carefully. The enjoyment of this priceless natural treasure by generations yet unborn, will depend very much on decisions made in the next few years. Sincerely, Gordon Andreassend MBE FHKIS, MNZIS, MRICS Lantau Map 2026 The comments shown below were prepared in January 2006 in a project where writers gave their views of development in Lantau in 20 years time. Here is what I wrote at that time. I have known Lantau’s tracks and trails for about 40 years, and as a surveyor and a mapper had almost 30 years to look at Lantau in greater detail on Lands Department aerial photos and maps.
