LAPPA

Lappa is the large, hilly island which shelters the inner harbour of Macao on its western side. It is also called by the Chinese Kung Pak of Tui Lien Shan, and by the Portuguese Patera Island. The island itself, which is within the jurisdiction of the Chungshan Magistrate (at Shekki) possesses no features of interest; but it has given its name to the chain of stations under the control of the Chinese Maritime Customs- which were established around Macao, by agreement with the Portuguese Government,. in the year 1887. Of these stations the two principal-from a revenue collecting point of view are at Malowchow, an islet close to Lappa and Chienshan, north of Green Island.

The Bus road between Macao and Shekki-the centre of the Chungshan District completed in the year 1932 is kept in good condition and a regular bus service is maintained by the Ki-Kwan Bus Company. Connection may be made at Shekki for continuing the journey further inland by motor boats.

The construction by the Ki-Kwan Highway Company of the main road from the Macao Barrier Gate to Shekki, a flourishing business centre of the Chung Shan District was completed during the beginning of the year 1932. Through traffic was officially inaugurated, and excellent services have been maintained.
