[Hong Kong] Artificial beach at Tai Po Lung Mei 政府擬將大埔龍尾天然泥灘改建成人工泳灘

Re: Artificial beach at Tai Po Lung Mei

[quote:1072b93f10="cgary"] Roy Tam Hoi-pong, president of Green Sense, another environmental group, agreed that marine life could be affected if an artificial beach was built. But he said the beach would answer the persistent calls of Tai Po residents for swimming facilities.

Plans for the HK$130 million beach involve dredging about 10,500 square metres of seabed, building a breakwater at each end, pouring in sand and building bathing facilities and a car park.[/quote]

$130 million is an outrageous waste of taxpayers money!!!

Lets hope the Tai Po residents don't start asking for a ski slope . . .
