The views expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the opinions of Civic Exchange, Noble Group or the reviewers. Report layout and illustrations by Jonas Chau. Foreword South China, including Hong Kong and Macau, depends on the Pearl River and its tributaries. It is in our interest to protect, restore and sustain these rivers and the watershed as a whole for all times. The other major river systems in China – the Yellow and Yangtze rivers – suffer from severe pollution and over-use. The threats facing the Pearl River, although serious, are of a lower order of magnitude by comparison. It is thus incumbent upon the south to ensure that the key source of life is much better managed. Civic Exchange is grateful to Noble Group for funding this research to focus attention on the Pearl River watershed. -

Black-Faced Spoonbill, Spoon-Billed Sandpiper and Chinese Crested Tern
Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals Secretariat provided by the United Nations Environment Programme 14 th MEETING OF THE CMS SCIENTIFIC COUNCIL Bonn, Germany, 14-17 March 2007 CMS/ScC14/Doc.16 Agenda item 5.1 PROGRESS REPORT ON THE INTERNATIONAL ACTION PLANS FOR THE CONSERVATION OF THE BLACK-FACED SPOONBILL ( PLATALEA MINOR ), SPOON-BILLED SANDPIPER ( EURYNORHYNCHUS PYGMEUS ), AND CHINESE CRESTED-TERN ( STERNA BERNSTEINI ) (Prepared by Mr. Simba Chan, BirdLife International Asia Division) I. Progress to March 2007 1. Preparation of the International Action Plans (IAP) for Black-faced Spoonbill, Chinese Crested-tern and Spoon-billed Sandpiper was unofficially started in late 2004, when BirdLife International Asia Division contacted experts on these species for their involvement in drafting the IAPs. As BirdLife International and its partners in Asia have been involved in conservation activities of Black-faced Spoonbill and Chinese Crested-tern, we believe it is best to have these two species IAP coordinated under BirdLife International Asia Division. On the IAP for Spoon- billed Sandpiper, BirdLife International approached the Shorebird Network of the Asia- Australasian Flyway for cooperation. They recommended Dr Christoph Zöckler, a Spoon-billed Sandpiper expert, to be the coordinator. BirdLife International had discussed with Dr Zöckler several times since 2004 and finally signed an agreement regarding the IAP after signing the Letter of Agreement with the CMS in early 2006. Black-faced Spoonbill Platalea minor 2. Drafting of the IAP for Black-faced Spoonbill goes on smoothly, with four working meetings between compilers who represent all major range countries (Japan, North Korea, South Korea, China including the island of Taiwan and the Hong Kong Special Administration Region) and workshop and symposia held in Tokyo, Tainan (Taiwan), Hong Kong and Ganghwa (South Korea): Tokyo, Japan : 2-6 October 2005 Meeting during the BirdLife Asia Council Meeting and a workshop at the Korea University, Tokyo. -
Technical Tour 1
TECHNICAL TOUR 1 19July 2009 (Sunday) Lok Ma Chau Spur Line The Sheung Shui to Lok Ma Chau (LMC) Spur Line was commissioned on 15 August 2007. The 7.4 km long LMC Spur Line is the second cross-boundary railway between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. It helps to relieve the congestion at other land boundary crossings and cater for the increasing cross-boundary traffic demand. The journey time for the spur line running from the existing East Rail Line from Sheung Shui Station to LMC Station is about six minutes. Passengers of the Spur Line alighting at the LMC Terminus can walk towards the Futian Port through a passenger bridge across the Shenzhen River and, after clearing immigration and custom control, take the Shenzhen Metro Line 4 at the Huangang Station at the basement of the Futian Port. The boundary crossing in the Lok Ma Chau Terminus Building will be able to handle up to 150,000 passengers a day. Passenger Bridge, across the Shenzhen River, linking up the LMC Terminus (on the left) to the Futian Port Building (on the right). 2 Quota: Limited (First-come first-served) To visit LMC spur line which is Frontier Closed Area, all visitors must hold Closed Area Permit from The Hong Kong Police Force. Please submit completed registration form of technical visit (downloadable from the symposium website: www.isttt18.org) to [email protected] by 8 July 2009. The organizers will apply Closed Area Permit for all visitors. Visitors without the Closed Area Permit are not allowed to visit LMC spur line. -

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Hong Kong’s “One Country, Two Systems” government regime will end by 2047and it will promote the country’s integration into the People’s Republic of China (PRC). To ensure a smooth transition, by eliminating the border and other forms of geographic barriers that separate the two countries, the PRC has been issuing measures to promote integration. However, despite on-going practices of integration, Hong Kong continues to strengthen its border with China through infrastructural and bureaucratic means, reinforcing a British-colonial era border regime. Thus, my research focuses on this contradiction between the elimination and reinforcement of the Hong Kong-China border as an attempt to understand the socio-political forces that have produced this dynamic. -

Legislative Council Panel on Security Policy on Frontier Closed Area
LC Paper No. CB(2)1713/01-02(06) Legislative Council Panel on Security Policy on Frontier Closed Area Purpose This paper briefs Members on the Government’s policy on the Frontier Closed Area (FCA), how the coverage of FCA was delineated, the reasons for the retention of the policy on FCA and its coverage. The FCA Policy 2. In view of the considerable border activities and the increasing number of illegal immigrants from the Mainland after the Second World War, the Government introduced the FCA policy in 1951 Under the FCA policy, certain area between the populated territory of Hong Kong and the then Sino- British border was declared to be the FCA to provide a buffer zone to help the security forces to maintain the integrity of the boundary between Hong Kong and the Mainland and to combat illegal immigration and other cross boundary criminal activities. Access to the FCA was controlled by the Police through the issue of the FCA Permits based on need. Coverage of the FCA 3. FCA was first statutorily defined in June 1951 by way of a Government Gazette Notice. The FCA was extended to its present boundary in May 1962. The total area of the FCA is about 28 sq. kilometres which covers North District and northeast part of Yuen Long. The northern boundary of the FCA runs along the 35km-long land boundary between HKSAR and the Mainland and is demarcated by a perimeter fence and a boundary road. The southern boundary of the FCA runs roughly parallel to the land boundary and includes all the waters of Starling Inlet. -
