All the European houses were occupied during the Summer months and Cheung Chau continues to be a popular Summer resort.

A new company was entrusted with the lighting of Cheung Chau in 1928 and new plant installed, but continued interruptions in the supply of current have made further improvements necessary, and fresh plant has been ordered.

Ping Chau. Two of the ten lime-kilns on this Island have closed down owing to the temporary check in building development during the drought, and a number of the kilns there were damaged by typhoon.

Tsuen Wan. Rice-growers in Tsuen Wan were able to plant two crops despite the long period of drought. Prices were high. The crop of pineapples was good and the demand for areas for planting has increased considerably. Pineapple cultivation promises to increase still further in this locality. Fish were scarce and supplies had to be obtained from Hong Kong.

Lamma. The first crop of rice was very poor. Poultry, pigs and cattle from this island continued to fetch good prices in the Aberdeen market.

15th March, 1930.
