Sai Kung DB publishes commemorative report
The Sai Kung District Board has just produced a commemorative publication on the 15th anniversary of the Board and the District Administration Scheme.
Echoing the theme "Serving the Community Through District Administration", the report traces Sai Kung's colourful history and its rapid development from a sleepy village to a vibrant district, now home to Hong Kong's latest new town at Tseung Kwan O.
The 80-page report contains personal accounts of the serving and former Sai Kung District Officers and Sai Kung District Board chairmen and photographs showing Governors and other dignitaries visiting the district on special occasions or on inspection trips.
The district officers and district board chairmen recall landmark developments during their respective tenure in the district, which is well-known for its rich traditions and practices.
Printed in Chinese, the publication also incorporates the latest working reports of the board's five committees, namely the Recreation and Sports Committee, Community Affairs Committee, Environmental Improvement Committee, Traffic and Transport Committee and Housing and Development Committee.
Copies of the report will be distributed from today (Thursday) to the Executive Council, the Legislative Council, the Regional and Urban Councils, public libraries and the district's schools, area committees and rural committees, mutual aid committees and voluntary organisations.
