give evidence before the Commission, with regard to cubicles, and other matters, in connection with

Chinese buildings. And I can only say that the

Commission would be only very glad indeed to have the

benefit of any remarks you have to make, and therefore

Well, Mr Fong, you understand we are sitting here as a 19553 Commission, to hear what people have to say with

regard to the working of the new Building Ordinance. There appears to be a certain amount of feeling amongst a certain section of the Chinese community, that the Building Ordinance, particularly with regard to aubicles, has been a little harsh, and we would be very glad indeed if you would tell us anything you have to say with regard to cubicles, and make any suggestions you think of, as to what improvements could be made tothe advantage of Chinese residents, and at the same time, without interfering with the Sanitary

condition of the Colony.

Well, shall I proceed
