Cheung Chau Residents Association,1941

Jan 01 1941

Cheung Chau Residents Association is a relic from Second World War set up by Japanese army in the name of Greater East Asia Prosperity Circle.

Then Colonial Government in 1950′s stopped recognising this organisation due to big chaos in election of its official, according to Austin Coates, Assistant District Officer of New Territories South at the time.

Rivalry within Cheung Chau Residents Association caused the administration unable to transfer fund raised by leasing from Wong Wai Tsak Tong property for its operation, to proposed Cheung Chau Rural Committee, recorded by James Hayes, Assistant District Officer of New Territories South in 1960.

Worse still, James Hayes remarked, Cheung Chau Residents Association remained in control of management for Fong Pin Hospital, and transferred the dragon boat shed next to Pak Tei Temple to Dragon Boat Association.
