PADS : COMMENTS BY LU PING
1. WEN WEI BAO OF 29 JANUARY REPORTS COMMENTS MADE BY LU PING TO
A HONG KONG HOSPITAL DELEGATION, ON THE NEW AIRPORT.
2. LU EMPHASISED THAT HONG KONG NEEDS A NEW AIRPORT. HE EXPRESSED HOPE THAT THE THIRD ROUND OF TALKS COULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. FURTHER DELAY IN RESOLVING IT WOULD NOT BE TO HONG KONG'S BENEFIT. THE MAIN POINT WAS THAT THE NEW AIRPORT SHOULD NOT LEAVE A BURDEN ON THE SAR. THE SITE OF THE AIRPORT AND ITS TIMING WERE NOT MAJOR QUESTIONS. THE CRUX WAS FINANCE.
