41. The Texas Oil Company and the Hong Kong Brewery, which opened in August, were busy throughout the year. The Shing Mun Scheme, now well under way, is providing much employment locally, and the Hume Pipe Company of Singapore have acquired an extensive site on the North of Tsuen Wan Bay where a large factory is now in the course of erection.
42. To meet this expansion and the increase in population which may reasonably be expected, Tsuen Wan now has the advantage of a proper water supply from street fountains. Plans for the erection of a new market, and for the gradual rebuilding of the village itself in accordance with an approved layout, are well in hand. The new market site has already been selected and the building will be completed in 1934.
Special Event.
43. With the willing co-operation of the various Kai Fong, produce of the District was again displayed at the Empire Products Fair, where it had a lively sale.
19th March, 1934.
