I see no objection to the proposed regulation.

349

It is difficult to say what effect the railway may have

upon trade routes but the following fixed points could be selected

-out with inconveniencing anyone except smugglers and each of the places

I mention is within easy reach of Customs preventive stations.

They are:-

1.

2.

3.

4.

Some spot to be defined on the Eastern frontier where

the road from Sha Tau Kok to Shek Chung Au Station

crosses the frontier. This road is now controlled

by the Preventive station at Sha Tau Kok.

Lin Ma Hang Bridge. There is a preventive station

quite close but I do not know the name.

The Bridge at Lo Fong. (opposite the Lo Shu Ling

Blockhouse).

This is controlled by the Lo Fong

Preventive Station.

The Mak Xu Ferry . This is under the Lo Fong P.S.

Station.

5.

The Lo Fu Ferry.

6.

The Liu Pok Ferry.

The Lok Ma Chau Ferry. All these ferries are now

under control by the custome. I believe the Lung

Shun Hui Preventative Station is responsible for them

but I am not familiar with the customs organisation.

I have mentioned these eight places because they are in

daily use. No explanations are necessary with regard to the

necessity for a fixed point at Sha Tau Kok and the one at Lo Fu.

Lin Ma Hang is necessary because all the people in Lin Ma Hang own land on both sides of the frontier, there is constant inter

communication so that a fixed point would be necessary here.
