  • Hong Kong's Bad Biodiversity
    JULY 2001 NUMBER 23 Porcupine! Newsletter of the Department of Ecology & Biodiversity, The University of Hong Kong Hong Kong's Bad Biodiversity Aliens - also known as exotics or introduced species - are species which did not occur here naturally but have been brought to Hong Kong by humans, either deliberately, as crops, ornamentals, domestic animals or pets, or accidentally, as stowaways in ships and cargo planes, as seeds or eggs in soil, or attached to shoes or clothing. Most species which arrive in this way do not "escape" to form wild populations, and most of the species which have escaped are confined to places that are continually disturbed by humans. The weeds of cultivated areas, roadsides and urban wasteland are mostly exotics, as are the fish in concrete channels, and such conspicuous urban invertebrates as the "American" Cockroach and the Giant African Snail. Most of these urban exotics are doing no obvious harm and some contribute positively to the quality of city life. However, they also form the pool of species from which are drawn the small number of ecologically-damaging ones: the invasive species. Invasive species are aliens that invade natural or semi-natural communities. Out of the 150 or so well-established alien plant species in Hong Kong, less than a dozen have become invasive. The climbing American composite Mikania micrantha – Mile-a-Minute – is the most obvious example, but even this is confined to relatively disturbed sites. The "success" rate seems to be higher among birds and mammals, but the species which have done well in natural habitats are all from tropical East Asia and are apparently occupying niches vacated by the loss of the same or closely-related species when Hong Kong was deforested centuries ago.

  • Legislative Council
    立法會 Legislative Council LC Paper No. CB(1)205/12-13(02) Ref: CB1/PL/TP Panel on Transport Special meeting on 27 November 2012 Background brief on safety of franchised bus operation and safety of long downhill roads Purpose This paper gives an account of the major views and concerns expressed by Legislative Council ("LegCo") Members and the Panel on Transport ("the Panel") in past discussion on the safety of franchised bus operation and safety of long downhill roads. Background 2. The Transport Department ("TD") monitors the operation of franchised bus services in accordance with the Public Bus Services Ordinance (Cap. 230) and the Road Traffic Ordinance ("RTO") (Cap. 374) and their Regulations. The franchised bus operators are required to carry out maintenance and repair as the Commissioner for Transport may specify, and TD's examiners are empowered to inspect the buses and maintenance facilities at any reasonable time. While buses should observe the general speed limits designated on roads, the maximum speed of a bus is restricted under RTO to 70 km/h on roads with a posted speed limit over 70km/h. 3. The Panel has all along been actively following the items on safety of long downhill roads and safety of franchised bus operation. The major incidents involving the operation of franchised buses and happening on long downhill roads are set out below. Traffic accident on Tuen Mun Road 4. Following a serious traffic accident happened on Tuen Mun Road on 10 July 2003, in which a bus carrying 40 passengers broke through a section of vehicular parapet and plunged into the hillside about 31 metres beneath, resulting in 21 fatalities and 20 injuries, the Chief Executive - 2 - appointed an independent Expert Panel to examine and make recommendations on safety measures to prevent similar catastrophes.

  • The Proposal
    THE PROPOSAL INTRODUCTION The Mountain Biking Explosion The exponential growth of recreational and sporting off road mountain bike riding is worldwide. Both cross country and Downhill Mountain Biking are established as Olympic events; the demand will con- tinue to increase. Locally The Hong Kong Magazine for August carried an article on mountain biking in Hong Kong, which only further fuels demand. Companies recruiting expatriates cite mountain biking and refer candidates to the HKMBA website as evidence that Hong Kong is a “cool” city to live. And in the latest Action Asia magazine there are three separate articles about mountain biking. Mountain Biking is a growing sport across the world, the bicycle industry in 2008 in the USA is a $6 billion industry, includ- ing the retail value of bicycles, related parts, and accessories according to research funded by the USA National Sporting Goods Association. Ironically the majority of bicycles, components and accessories are manufactured in China, and in Taiwan and Japan. Hong Kong’s bike shops are amongst the best in the world, when a new bike or component is manufac- tured it is usual to find it in a Hong Kong bike shop ahead of anywhere else. This is because most bikes and components are manufactured within the region and the Hong Kong bicycle enthusiast is one of the most discerning. Bicycle shops in other countries tend to carry minimum stock and will custom order Unfortunately for mountain biking cycling in the country parks falls under the authority of the AFCD. depending on requests by individual customers; recently online retailers overseas have filled this void by Whilst AFCD is no doubt qualified to fulfil their other responsibilities in the area of recreational use of offering huge catalogues and overnight delivery.
