I WOULD like to ask the Commissioner of Police to tell us why the Peak Police Station has been downgraded to a reporting-only station at a time when: Crime is on the increase in the Peak area. My own staff inform me that two potential intruders were discovered in my own Peak garden on a Sunday some weeks ago.
Traffic has increased dramatically.
The volume of people visiting the Peak has greatly increased since the Peak Galleria opened.
There are many English-speaking people living at the Peak, whose household staff do not speak Chinese. From my own experience, it is almost impossible to obtain a quick response to a crisis from the current Peak Police Station personnel because of the language difficulty.
Please, Commissioner Hui, look at the Peak Police Station problem again, and consider re-appointing a foreign police inspector to the post - he was an enormous help to us all.
