GOVERNMENT ASKS K.R.A. VIEWS
.
APPROVED IN PRINCIPLE
The possibility of a Lido scheme for Kowloon, which was much in the public mind last summer, has now de- veloped into a definite pro- ject, which is receiving the consideration of the Govern-
ment.
This fast emerged at this week's meeting of the Com- mittee of the Kowloon Residents* Association, which has been asked for its views on the pro- posal. The Government has dis- closed that the project is
aponsored by private interests, and the K.R.A., while approving the scheme in principle, is seek ing further details before com- mitting itself.
