What we would like to impress The programme is as follows:-

Quite another policy seems to be adopted in this instance. Before a house is built- (excepting the wireless station at Cape D'Aguilar) the Government is prepared to spend over a quarter of a million dollars on road construction to open up a new district, while at the same time postponing indefinitely the project for cheap and rapid transit to Wanchai Gap by means of a tramway, which H.E.
