GOVERNOR OPENS YUEN LONG DISTRICT
SPORTS ASSOCIATION CLUBHOUSE
****
The following is the full text of speech by the Governor,
Sir Murray MacLehose, at the official opening of the Yuen Long District
Sports Association Clubhouse, today :
It gives me great pleasure to return here today to open your
Association's Clubhouse.
-
In many ways you, and your Association, are breaking new ground
both for yourselves and for the New Territories this is the largest
project you have ever undertaken, and this is the first facility of its
kind to be built in the New Territories.
That such an achievement has
been realized largely from within the resources of the Yuen Long community
is remarkable. All those associated with this achievement deserve our
congratulations.
Your Government's policy here, and in the rest of the New
Territories, is to encourage through public expenditure and through
private investment the development of self-contained towns and
communities, providing employment, education and meeting all other
social and recreation needs.
