Details	:	Programme Highlights Hong Kong is facing an acute land shortage problem. The Task Force on Land Supply (TFLS) is of the view that our estimated total land shortfall should be far more than the 1,200 hectares identified under the Hong Kong 2030+ in 2016. After conducting an extensive public engagement exercise in 2018, the TFLS recommended eight land supply options to the Government. Three of the medium-to-long term options are Developing the East Lantau Metropolis (ELM), Near-shore Reclamation outside Victoria Harbour, and Developing the River Trade Terminal site. The Government fully accepted TFLS’s recommendations in February 2019. The Lantau Tomorrow Vision (LTV) covers the aforementioned three medium-to-long term land supply options. The most important initiative is to commence studies on phased reclamation in the Central Waters, with the first phase development on the Kau Yi Chau (KYC) Artificial Islands of about 1,000 hectares matching the location, scale and broad development mode of the ELM land supply option recommended by TFLS. Another major initiative is to take forward near-shore reclamation at Lung Kwu Tan and to replan Tuen Mun West (including the River Trade Terminal). All development projects under LTV will be supported by a new set of strategic road and railway networks connecting to the existing transport networks. The KYC Artificial Islands are built for Hong Kong people. As announced in the 2019 Policy Address, a platform will be established for professionals and young people to take part in the development of these islands. This discussion forum aims at sharing and seeking the views of HKIS Young Members on the Government’s concepts and principles for LTV, in particular the challenges and opportunities of the proposed KYC Artificial Islands, Lung Kwu Tan reclamation and Tuen Mun West development, and how these projects will benefit our future generations. It is also intended to tap the participants’ suggestions on how professional surveyors could be engaged in different processes of the projects.
