Cross-boundary Transport Hub at Siu Ho Wan Background Siu Ho Wan is strategically located close to the North Lantau Highway Connection (NLHC) of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) and has the potential to serve as a transport interchange for cross-boundary traffic. A possible location of the cross-boundary transport hub is at MTR Siu Ho Wan Depot. The depot occupies 30 ha of land, with flexibility built into the design for retrofitting development above the depot. MTR access to Siu Ho Wan on the Tung Chung Line could be provided by the construction of an additional station, subject to Government’s approval for the station and authorization under the relevant Ordinance. The cross-boundary transport hub has the potential to be a major transport interchange, providing park-and-ride facilities, a MTR station and a public transport interchange. -

File Ref.: MA 60/1(2002) Pt.4 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL BRIEF
File Ref.: MA 60/1(2002) Pt.4 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL BRIEF SHIPPING AND PORT CONTROL (AMENDMENT) REGULATION 2002 INTRODUCTION At the meeting of the Executive Council on 25 June 2002, the Council ADVISED and the Chief Executive ORDERED that the A Shipping and Port Control (Amendment) Regulation 2002, at Annex A, should be made under section 80(1) of the Shipping and Port Control Ordinance to impose a designated area in the Kap Shui Mun water area and require all vessels to tender pre-arrival notification (PAN). BACKGROUND AND ARGUMENT Imposing a Special Area in the Kap Shui Mun area 2. At present, through traffic to and from the northwestern approaches of Hong Kong waters are free to be conducted in either the Kap Shui Mun Fairway or Ma Wan Fairway. Such traffic can be both southeast-bound and northwest-bound. The average navigational width of the Kap Shui Mun Fairway and Ma Wan Fairway are 210 metres and 680 metres respectively. 3. In view of the collision incidents that happened in the Kap Shui Mun area, Marine Department conducted an in-house study in the year 2000 on the traffic using the area with a view to developing measures to improve navigational safety there. The study recommends, inter alia, that a single direction traffic scheme should be introduced to the Kap Shui Mun area. Under the scheme, through traffic in the northern part of the much narrower Kap Shui Mun Fairway should be limited to southeast-bound only. The two-way bound traffic arrangement in both the southern part of the Kap Shui Mun Fairway and the entire Ma Wan Fairway can remain unchanged. -

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. -
When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco. -

WORKING PAPER No. 39 INITIAL ASSESSMENT of POSSIBLE PORT DEVELOPMENT SITES
This subject paper is intended to be a research paper delving into different views and analyses from various sources. The views and analyses as contained in this paper are intended to stimulate public discussion and input to the planning process of the "HK2030 Study" and do not necessarily represent the views of the HKSARG. WORKING PAPER No. 39 INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF POSSIBLE PORT DEVELOPMENT SITES Background 1. The port is a vital economic infrastructure of Hong Kong. As a result of rapid economic growth in Southern China and Mainland’s accession to the World Trade Organization, the Port Development Strategy Review (PDSR) 2001 recommended that the existing container terminals may not have sufficient capacity to meet long-term need and the next container terminal would be required in early next decade1. 2. In planning for the future port development, our objective is to formulate a sustainable port development strategy which will take into account both the economic needs for further port facilities and the possible measures to mitigate the existing and new environmental problems. As for future port location, four potential sites for future container port development were shortlisted by PDSR 2001 for further investigation, namely West Tuen Mun, East Lantau, Northwest Lantau and Southwest Tsing Yi. To finalise the best site for future container port development, the sites are now being further investigated under the Study on Hong Kong Port- Master Plan 2020 (HKP2020) to be completed in early 2004. In view of the proximity of the East Lantau site to the Disney Development, this site has not been selected for further detailed assessment. -
Hong Kong's Old Villages
METUPLACES JFA FROM 2018/2 THE PAST LOST IN NEW TOWNS: DOI:METU 10.4305/METU.JFA.2017.2.5 JFA 2018/2 197 (35:2)HONG 197-220 KONG’S OLD VILLAGES PLACES FROM THE PAST LOST IN NEW TOWNS: HONG KONG’S OLD VILLAGES Terry Van DIJK*, Gerd WEITKAMP** Received: 24.02.2016; Final Text: 06.03.2017 INTRODUCTION Keywords: Heritage; new town; master plan; planning; urbanisation. Awareness of Hong Kong’s built heritage and its value is considered to have begun to increase around the time of the end of British rule. The change in Hong Kong’s sovereignty in 1997 prompted a search for its own identity, because while no longer under British rule, and not being nor becoming entirely Chinese, it was not immediately obvious what the emerging Hong Kong should put forward as its cultural identity. The question since that time has also become economically pertinent, as Hong Kong has developed into a major Asian tourist destination. As cultural tourism could be developed into one of the pillars of Hong Kong’s leisure economy, debate emerged on its identity and the built heritage it reflects. This article addresses the popular assumption that before 1997, heritage had been of little interest to Hong Kong’s governments, as articulated by Yung and Chan (2011), Henderson (2001) and Cheung (1999). This negligence was explained by the fact that Hong Kong’s population was growing exponentially through several waves of large-scale immigration, while being under an obviously temporary British government. This resulted in a heterogeneous population (Henderson, 2001) which had just migrated there and was more concerned about access to housing, employment and transportation than the history of the lands they were about to inhabit (Yung and Chan, 2011, 459). -
