Hong Kong has taken a key step toward approving the construction of a Chinese military port along its waterfront.
In a unanimous decision, Hong Kong’s Town Planning Board Friday gave the green light for the construction of a People’s Liberation Army military port in the city’s Central district, CCTV said.
The proposal, for an area of prime harbor front, must now be approved by Hong Kong’s top policy-making body.
But the proposal has drawn sharp criticism from some of Hong Kong’s residents who argue the public will lose access to valuable open space along Victoria Harbour.
