Guest guest Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 South China Morning Post http://focus.scmp.com/focusnews/ZZZKPCIBK0F.html Tuesday, April 17, 2007 I cannot help it, I am infuriated. I have to put pen to paper. How can any government body be so incompetent? I refer to your article on the movement of the buffalo on Lantau Island (front page, Sunday Morning Post). In one operation the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department managed to kill 99 per cent of a herd of cattle it was trying to relocate. In any other industry this fiasco would be considered criminally insane and result in some heads rolling. I come from a farming background and we regularly moved cattle around Britain. I don't remember losing even a single beast. The persons responsible for this obvious abuse of power should be sacked or at least sent back to the Marks & Spencer women's underwear department where they would still probably mess things up. Please, Ag and Fish, don't write back and tell me it is a different kettle of fish to move dairy cattle around Britain to relocating a herd of buffalo on Lantau, I know it is! It is also a different set of rules and your staff should know this! Paul Dodds, Lantau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
