Sir Murray also saw small back lanes blocked in places by

illegal structures which made it extremely difficult for USD Cleaners

to sweep the areas. In other streets parked cars also obstructed the

cleaners work.

At the briefing to press,radio and TV editors last week, Sir

Murray said he was writing to the head of every government department

to stress that the campaign was no routine matter and that he expected

every man and woman in the public service to do their utmost to make the

campaign a success.

"I am sure that when the public sees the Governmentės determination

and commitment, it will respond enthusiastically, and that the effort

by the whole combined community that will result is the right way to

solve this problem once and for all."

The Governor added: "I believe everyone is heartily sick of the dirt and litter that spoil so much of our city for so much of every day. and that there is not a person in Hong Kong in his right mind who does

not want this campaign to succeed. I shall do everything I possibly can

to ensure that they will not be disappointed.
