Love Spanning Three Generations
Adrian worked actively towards the launch for Hoi Ha Marine Life Centre while he was a trustee of World Wide Fund for Nature Hong Kong from 1999 to 2011. The Fu Tak lam Foundation, established and administered by Adrian, has provided funding to 119 non-governmental organisations in Hong Kong and mainland China over the past five years.
Love Spanning Three Generations
“In 1957, my departed grandfather the late Fu Tak Iam acquired fishponds and farmland in Nam Sang Wai with the dream of building village style houses reminiscent of his childhood days in Guangdong Province. I was a teenager then. Fifty years have gone by quickly and I too have joined the ranks of the elderly, but the landscape has survived the test of time, only scarred by a bit of dilapidation. Not only will the development fulfill the dreams of my grandfather, but also regenerate the natural environment by conserving 140.7 hectares of net wetland perpetually. This project is particularly meaningful for my family,” says Adrian H. C. Fu.
Since 2011, KHI Holdings Group owned by the Fu family has directed the development planning of Nam Sang Wai and Lut Chau. The theme of “A Balanced Master Plan for Responsive Conservation” prioritises ecological conservation, supported by years of study and surveys. The plan has been formulated in transparent consultation with the community.
“Ecological consideration has been an integral part of this master plan. Paying due attention to the ecology and integrating environmental priorities into the master development plan is the new and only way forward,” added Fu.
