On the morning of Tuesday 14 March, the LegCo Panel on Food Safety and Environmental Hygeine will be discussing a paper jointly drafted by the Health, Welfare and Food Bureau, AFCD, Food and Environmental Hygeine Department and the Department of Health entitled "Progress of Comprehensive Plan of Action to Deal with the Global Problem of Avian Influenza". You can download the paper through this link to the LegCo website...

If you read through it, you will find that all of government's planned actions is focused on controlling the live poultry trade in HK and minimizing contact between people and live poultry. Nothing is mentioned about;
* why Mai Po, the Wetland Park and the aviaries in HK are closed and on what condition they will be opened again,
* the dead wild birds found with H5N1 in the urban areas but those areas were not closed off but only disinfected and people allowed to carry on using them,
* why early morning birdwatching classes have been cancelled in the urban parks but the parks are still opened and throusands of people allowed to walk through them each day.
WWF has already written to the Chairman of the Panel, Hon. Fred Li Wah-ming mentioning these points and asking him to raise them at the Panel meeting. If anyone in the Society wants to add their voice, then please write to the Hon. Fred Li Wah-ming as soon as possible, preferable before Monday night (I know it is a rush), so that your elected representatives in LegCo know about YOUR views in time for the meeting.
The e-mail contact for Fred Li is <info@liwahming.org.hk> and I would also suggest that you copy it to Dr. Kwok Ka Ki <kkk@kkwok.org> who is the representative for the Medical profession in LegCo and who also sits in on the same Panel, and to copy it to the LegCo e-mail accounts to make sure thay get the message <pi@legco.gov.hk>.
You can also bcc any message to WWF <maipo@wwf.org.hk> and to the HKBWS so that we can a record of how many people has written.
Thank you for all your support!!!

各位：
衛生福利及食物局、漁護署、食環署和衛生署已聯合草擬了一份文件，名為《應付 全球禽流感問題的全面行動計劃的進展》，三月十四日早上會由立法會「食物安全 及環境衛生事務委員會」討論，文件可以從立法會的網頁下載：
《應付全球禽流感問題的全面行動計劃的進展》
政府的有關計劃，全部集中在控制香港的家禽售賣和減少人和活家禽的接觸，對下 列問題卻一字不提：
＊ 為何要關閉濕地公園和本港各雀鳥公園，以及在甚麼情況之下才會重新開放這 些地方？
＊ 在市區內發現帶H5N1死鳥的地點只是消毒了事，但是卻仍然讓人進入。
＊ 為何一方面取消市區內公園的清晨觀鳥活動，另一方面卻又繼續開放這些公園 ，讓數以千計的人每日在裡面走動。
世界自然基金會已去信該事務委員會的主席李華明議員，要求他在會議中提出以上 問題，如果會員想提出意見，請儘快寫信給李議員，最好是在星期一晚上之前（時 間非常逼切），以便由各位選出的議員代表在開會前及時得悉你的看法。
李華明的電郵地址是 info@liwahming.org.hk，請同時將電郵副本抄送給出席 該事務委員會的立法會醫學界代表郭家麒醫生 kkk@kkwok.org，以及立法會的電 郵信箱 pi@legco.gov.hk，以確保他們收到你的意見。
最後，請各位將電郵以密件副本（bcc）抄送給自然基金會 maipo@wwf.org.hk 和香港觀鳥會，好讓我們知道有多少人曾經去信。
多謝各位支持！！！
