VBP CENTRE WILL NOT AFFECT RECREATIONAL FACILITIES
THE GOVERNMENT'S PLAN TO USE A REMOTE SITE IN SAI KUNG AS A CLOSED DETENTION CENTRE FOR VIETNAMESE BOAT PEOPLE (VBP) WILL NOT AFFECT THE RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AND ENVIRONMENT IN THE AREA.
THIS WAS EXPLAINED TO MEMBERS OF THE SAI KUNG DISTRICT BOARD TODAY (THURSDAY) IN A BRIEFING BY SECURITY BRANCH OFFICIALS.
THE REGIONAL COUNCIL WAS ALSO BRIEFED ON THE EMERGENCY ACCOMMODATION PLAN WHICH HAD BEEN MADE NECESSARY IN THE LIGHT OF A CONTINUING LARGE INFLUX OF VBP.
THE REFUGEE CO-ORDINATOR, MR MIKE HANSON, SAID IT WAS A REMOTE SITE FAR AWAY FROM THE CITY AND FROM HABITATION.
"THE DETENTION CENTRE WILL BE NEXT TO THE CHONG HING WATER SPORTS CENTRE BUT WILL NOT ENCROACH ON ITS FACILITIES WHICH WILL STILL BE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC, HE SAID.
"THE PRESENCE OF THE CAMP IS NOT EXPECTED TO AFFECT FACILITIES IN THE SAI KUNG COUNTRY PARK GENERALLY.
"STUDIES ARE UNDER WAY BY TECHNICAL DEPARTMENTS ON WATER AND POWER SUPPLIES AND WASTE DISPOSAL; AND MEASURES WILL BE CONSIDERED PREVENT POLLUTION."
