Hong Kong officials may read 1934 journal for clues to water works history Letters © SCMP View of the century-old service reservoir in Shek Kip Mei s Bishop Hill on December 29.

I refer to Ben L. Tsang s letter titled Historic water tank deserves preservation (December 30), in which he calls for the study of the history of water works in Hong Kong.
The senior officials of both the Water Supplies Department and the Antiquities and Monuments Office could do no better than to start by reading the July-December 1934 issues of The Far Eastern Review, a monthly engineering, industrial commercial journal published in Manila and later Shanghai between 1904 and 1941.
Hong Kong: Reservoir site works halted
An underground reservoir in Sham Shui Po will be preserved for heritage purposes and works at the site will be suspended, Commissioner for Heritage Ivanhoe Chang said today.
Speaking to reporters after inspecting the site this afternoon, Mr Chang noted that an in-depth study will be conducted on the conservation value of the structure at Bishop Hill. The AMO (Antiquities & Monuments Office) has already started its work. Of course, given that it is a very serious issue to study all the first-hand historical materials as well as all the architectural plans and also we will involve the independent Historic Buildings Assessment Panel, it will take some time.
