GEO welcomes consultant's report on Kwun Lung Lau
The Head of the Government's Geotechnical Engineering Office (GEO), Dr Andrew Malone, has welcomed Professor Norbert Morgenstern's report as "a very comprehensive and valuable piece of work".
"This report explains the causes of the Kwun Lung Lau landslip in great detail and its findings will help shape our future strategy for upgrading old retaining walls," Principal Government Geotechnical Engineer Dr Malone noted today (Friday).
He went on to say that some of the very constructive recommendations made by the independent expert would have significant impact on property management and geotechnical practice in Hong Kong in the future.
