(5) Liaison with the World Health Organization
Experts on malaria had been invited from the WHO Western
Pacific Regional Office to visit Hong Kong to assess the malaria
situation and to advise on staff training and other aspects of
malaria control. Their visits have confirmed that all the
measures that we are taking in Hong Kong are appropriate and
adequate. The experts' recommendations on staff training
have all been implemented while advices on other measures
have been or are being implemented whenever practicable.
The Inter-departmental Co-ordinating Committee and my
Department will continue to monitor the situation closely
and further recommendations may be made by the Committee as
and when necessary.
