On October 26th, 1959, to celebrate the completion of the hundredth multi- storey resettlement block situated on the Wong Tai Sin estate, Mr. C. B. Burgess, C.M.G., O.B.E., in his capacity as Officer Administering the Govern- ment, unveiled a plaque commemorating this landmark in Government's programme for the resettlement of squatters. ‘But', said Mr. Burgess, I see no alternative to a 101st, to 150th, to a 200th block-and, if that is to be achieved, enthusiasm and resolution must not be allowed to flag in any quarter.'
