Accompanied by the acting Director of Home Affairs, Mr Philip Chok, and the North District Officer, Mr Tommy Yuen, Mrs Chan first called on the Man Kam To (MKT) Control Point -- one of the four gazetted border crossing points between Hong Kong and China -- where she was briefed on the current border traffic situation and future development plans.
Two other vehicle crossing points were situated at Lok Ma Chau (LMC) and Sha Tau Kok (STK) while the one for train passengers at Lo Wu.
On average, the four control points process a total of 24,500 vehicles and 110,000 passengers each day.
