Achieving our aims

In collaboration with WWF, Teng Hoi installed ‘The Professor Ridzwan Fish Blast Detection System’ at WWF’s Marine Life Centre in Hoi Ha Wan.  We dedicated the detection station to Professor Ridzwan of Universiti Malaysia Sabah in Malaysia. His support in the early stages of the development was invaluable and we hope our dedication can help to speed his recuperation from illness.  If you have Google Earth installed, you can see the Marine Life Centre using this link (or click the Google Earth logo to the right).

 

The results from the detection station have indicated much more blasting activity than anyone suspected in Hong Kong.  Discussions are now under way with the Hong Kong government about how we should follow it up.  Teng Hoi and WWF believe there should be a detection system deployed in Mirs Bay at Tung Ping Chau (see here for a map of the sea area we've been monitoring).

 

Teng Hoi is now putting together activities and programmes with Hong Kong Schools.  We’re also partnering the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra.  Shortly we’ll announce programmes for the planned activities.
