Environmental Impact Assessment for the Mai Po visitor centre 米埔遊客中心的環境影響評估

Biovariety might be, to some extent, affected and undermined if any contruction is made.

You would be the first to jump up and down if someone else was doing this. Set an example!

This site is environmentally ultra-sensitive and any building proposal must be available for public scrutiny and comment before approval. Whatever the legal position, WWF/HK must in all faith arrange for an independent environmental impact assessment.

Transparency is good.

Public have the right to know details of what is going on.

It is notable that all responses avoid the issue of an EIA for the PSFSC. Why?

Need transparency on the demolition plan and the substitute solution. So far my impression of the WWF HK management is very bad, too bureaucratic, cumbersome application for visiting, especially for overseas visitors. Expensive too. Looks like run by a privileged few who have no broad vision to run the facility.
