AbstractLam Hang-chi, in Hong Kong Economic Journal, 3 December 1996, suggested that filling in the reservoirs brings many advantages. This will boost the economy and help solve the shortage of demand in the labour market while China will not turn off the tap for all of Hong Kong's prestige and economic power. However, Daniel To has different opinion. He thinks that Lam's proposal will not be cost efficient, and will cause irreparable damage to the territory's ecological. It is also in violation of the law.
