The magnificent efforts of the voluntary bodies, in particular the
Family Planning Association of Hong Kong in pioneering the acceptance and practice
of family planning among eligible women need hardly be repeated on this occasion.
Suffice it to say that in almost half a century of hard and dedicated work
in close association with the Government Maternal and Child Health Service,
the Family Planning Association have made vital contributions to the family
health and welfare of our community.
I have no doubt that services provided by this Centre will achieve
all that your Association have hoped for, i.e. to provide an effective and
much needed Family Planning and Maternal and Child Health Service for the rural
people in the Yuen Long area. May I conclude by wishing you and the Family
Planning Association the very best of luck in your new venture.
