After excluding these 803 ha, and the other 76 ha within conservation-related zonings, there remain about 700 ha of brownfield sites scattered around different parts of the New Territories. Among the 700 ha, 450 ha are categorised to have high or medium possible development potential, based on the consultant’s broad-brush classification 2 . As announced in the 2019 1 Details are set out in LC Paper No. CB(1)160/19-20(06) :- (https://www.legco.gov.hk/yr19-20/english/panels/dev/papers/dev20191126cb1-160-6-e.pdf). 2 The consultant made the broad-brush classification on the basis of three quantitative criteria, namely, the straight-line distance of brownfield sites to new towns and major highways, and the size of brownfield clusters.

    2017 HONG KONG in brief Brand HK’s visual identity and brandline have become familiar to people at home and around the world — the flying dragon and ’Asia’s world city’ have become synonymous with Hong Kong.
