Tang King-shing, new chief of the Country and Marine Parks Board.

The man named as the new chief of the Country and Marine Parks Board just as a debate on development in the parks erupted has vowed to be "impartial and fair".

Here is the scenario. On the one hand, we have a burglar who wants to break into a home, and on the other, we have the homeowner, who would rather the burglar be kept out.

How did you strike the balance between these two parties in your police career, Mr Tang?
