The URA's latest research report on the reconstruction planning of Youwang proposed to divide the area of 212 hectares into five major development nodes.
The Secretary for Development, Wong Wai-lun, said on a radio program today (26) that the Real Estate Developers Association said that it would cooperate with the government to open up land, and hope that the government and developers can increase positive interactions in the future, reduce unnecessary disputes, and cooperate to solve the housing problems in Hong Kong, such as redevelopment. Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok suggested that the URA may not be able to complete it alone. If there are more advanced rules and standards in the future, it can be used by other participants to jointly develop the redevelopment area.
The URA carried out the Yauwang study in May 2017 to explore how to improve the current land use efficiency and reconstruction potential of the Yauwang District.

In response to Xia Baolong, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, earlier expressed his hope that Hong Kong would say goodbye to sub-divided housing in 2049. Wong Wai Lun stated on the commercial program "Zhenghao Sunday" today that the government’s latest goal is to build 316,000 public housing in the next 10 years. The number of units has increased significantly compared to three years ago. According to the current plan, two-thirds of the units will be built at a later time to solve the problem of unsuitable housing including sub-divided housing.
However, Huang emphasized that people living in sub-divided housing have different reasons, such as reducing commuting time. Therefore, other methods are needed in the long run, including creating new jobs for residents in the district.
Wong Wai-lun also pointed out that the plan to build an artificial island in the central waters to develop the "East Lantau Metropolis" has received considerable support in the past when the Land Supply Task Force collects opinions from the community. The government will persuade the society with specific plans in the future. The artificial islands in the waters will have the first batch of land in 2030, and the first batch of residents can be occupied in 2034.
Wong Wai Lun described that he was pleased to see that the Real Estate Developers Association would cooperate with the government to open up land.
