Legal Aid Yet to be Approved: Your US$40 Donation Can Save Seahorses at Lung Mei
法援未批 團體發起一人$300救龍尾
The HKSAR government insists on building an artificial beach at Lung Mei in Tai Po, which means that the rare seahorse, Hippocampus kuda, will loose their home permanently. Alliance on Protecting Lung Mei is granted a judicial review, and the first hearing is scheduled to be held on next Monday morning at the High Court. Ho Lai, the representative of the Alliance, applied for legal aid in June, but no approval has been given so far. The Alliance has called for a “Each Person Donate HK$300 to Save Lung Mei” action, and seeks donations from the public to pay for the lawsuit before the legal aid arrives.
