JEITY FOR CHEUNG CHAU
Friday, June 30, 1972
Work will begin shortly on the construction of a jetty at Sai Wan
on Cheung Chau Island to provide safe embarking and disembarking facilities
for villagere and picnickers.
The jetty, when completed, will also provide protection against bad
weather for small fishing craft mooring in the bay.
Sai Wan, at the extreme south-western end of Cheung Chau Island, is
the centre of three fishermen's resettlement villages and a popular picnic
spot.
Villagers and picnickers at present visiting Sai Wan by sampans have
to land at nearby rocks, which is often hazardous, particularly in bad weather.
