Lands, Public Works and Transport Bureau (DSSOPT) Director Li Cangfeng said yesterday that he had not been responsible for land management matters during his tenure as the bureau’s deputy director in 2001 when a land swap deal involving the former Iec Long Firecracker Factory in Taipa was inked.
Li made the comments after attending a press conference about yesterday’s tourist coach accident at Government Headquarters.
The land swap was deemed invalid by the Commission Against Corruption (CCAC), according to a CCAC report released last month, after which Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On ordered Secretary for Transport and Public Works Raimundo do Rosario to follow up on the subsequent consequences of the controversial deal.
