Why you can trust SCMP

I refer to Mike Wall's letter (South China Morning Post, January 19) deploring the practice of the Management Committee of a building in Causeway Bay to issue meeting notifications and minutes in Chinese only.

Mr Wall, as a representative of the Tenants' Association, is a member of the committee.

Mr Wall first sought our assistance in September of last year and he persuaded the Management Committee to issue meeting notifications and minutes in both Chinese and English.

Since then, we in the Wan Chai District Office (not the local District Board as mentioned in his letter) have actively assisted in mediating between the two parties concerned.

We have consistently advised the committee to take into account the needs of expatriate residents generally and its members in particular.

There have been numerous verbal exchanges and we wrote to the committee on October 22.
