*****

KWUN TONG CITY DISTRICT OFFICER

THE 2,000 PEOPLE OF LAM TIN FIRST AND SECOND VILLAGES PREVIOUSLY HAD NO PROPER ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. THE KWUN TONG CITY DISTRICT OFFICE THEN HELPED THEM TO FORM A MUTUAL AID COMMITTEE WHICH SET ABOUT IN APPLYING FOR LEGAL POWER SUPPLY.

IN APRIL.

THE TWO VILLAGES ARE THE SECOND IN KWUN TONG TO RECEIVE LEGAL ELECTRICITY WITH THE HELP OF THE CITY DISTRICT OFFICE.
