CLEAREES THANK HOUSING STAFF FOR

Effort And Hardwork

A group of about 10 former tenants of the Ma Chai Hang Licensed

Area, who have all been accommodated in public housing estates, called at

the Housing Department this (Friday) morning to thank Clearance and

Applications staff for their hard work and effort in meeting their requests.

As a gesture of their appreciation, Mr Leung Kam-chiu and Madam

Tam Fun, representing the former tenants of the licensed area, presented a

cup as a memento to the Housing Department.

The cup was accepted by two Senior Housing Managers, Mr Chiu Shing

of Clearance Division and Mrs Joy Au of Applications Section.

Inscribed on the cup are the Chinese characters for "Diligence and

consideration for the people",

In accepting the cup, Mr Chiu expressed the hope that all former

tenants concerned were now happily settled in their new homes,

The Ma Chai Hang Licensed Area was first set up in November 1967.

In 1972, all the tenants were moved into housing estates and the site was

re-used as a licensed area.

In May this year, the tenants were informed that they would be

moved into public housing estates as part of the Housing Authority's

programme to clear all old licensed areas which are without electricity and

individual water supplies.
