Destroying Star Ferry

If you ask any tourist after a visit to Hong Kong what they love about this magical city they will almost certainly mention the Star Ferry.

Moving the Star Ferry in Central to its new location was nothing short of an act of vandalism against Hong Kong's heritage and collective memory.

Now these mindless planners are going to shift the Star Ferry bus terminus, presently located at Tsim Sha Tsui ferry terminal, to Tsim Sha Tsui East.

By doing so, on both sides of the harbour, they will be destroying the seamless bus to ferry connections essential for the service to remain viable.

These projects must be stopped before it is too late and tourist arrivals start to decline.
