Encouraged by the growth in population and economic development, our urban areas have continually expanded and encroached into rural areas like Lantau.
This development has resulted in environmental problems such as noise and air pollution. We must resolve the conflicts between environmental conservation and this urban development and strike a balance. I feel that improving the road system on Lantau will open the island up to private car users and it is not a good idea.
We need to ensure sustainable development in Hong Kong.
