At the end of 1929 it is expected that the

4

Colony will have left a liquid surplus of $2,000,000. In addition there will be over $500,000 re-payable

from loan funds. It is probable by that time that & further loan will have been floated; a it is &o be

hoped that considerable progress will

have been made

with the various waterworks schemes now under con-

sideration, and it will not be possible to meet a very large portion of that expenditure from surplus funds. While, therefore Hong Kong is a long way

from the ideal of a liquid surplus of one year's revenue, its position seems fairly satisfactory.
