Eco-tour of Wong Tai Sin Temple Fun Day
  21.01.2017
   
  In 2010, we set ourself to be a “Green Organization”, promote environmental protection policies and projects. By 2012 we obtained funding from the Environment and Conservation Funding Committee in making subsidiaries under Sik Sik Yuen, including educational, medical, social service and the Wong Tai Sin Temple, actively carry out projects under the slogan of “Sik Sik Yuen•To Make a Green Temple•To Build a Green Organization””. Of these Wong Tai Sin Temple obtained funding to develop the first “Incense Smoke & Odour Collection & Filtering System” and “Incense Ash Regeneration Program” hopefully using the Temple as a platform to raise public awareness on environmental protection.

Relevant project was completed in 2016 and “Eco-tour of Wong Tai Sin Temple” Fun Day was held on 21 January 2017, announcing to the public on project completion and spreading information on environmental protection. On the day of the Opening Ceremony, we had the honour in having Mr Wong Kam-sing, G.B.S., JP Secretary for the Environment, Mr. Lam Chiu Ying, SBS Chairman of Environmental Movement Committee, Mr. Ting Chi Wai, District Councilor member of Wong Tai Sin and Mr. Syrus Tsui, Assistant District Officer of Wong Tai Sin District to be our guests of honour. Our short film on environmental protection was shown at the ceremony and Mr. Wong and our Chairman displayed the mobile phone Apps on “Wong Tai Sin Temple Eco-Tour”.
