In May 2020, Auxiliary Police Commissioner Yeung Cho-chee was revealed to have been trespassed and fenced off 5 square feet of official land in front of the house in Sai Kung Village Housing. Yang then removed the wall, the official land was reclaimed, fenced with barbed wire, and government official land plaques erected. "Hong Kong 500" recently found that the barbed wire fence and official land signs have been removed, but the white platform on the official land has not been restored. In August last year, Yeung again applied for the lease of official land for garden and parking purposes, and if approved, he could continue the unrestored terrace.
After 01, the Government did not accept the application for the regularization of official land "first hegemony and then lease", but Yang Zuzhi "first occupy, then return the land, and then apply", the Lands Department held that the new application was not "first hegemony and then lease", and was handling it in accordance with the established procedures, and pointed out that the platform was not built by Yang, so it did not request demolition. Yeung acknowledged submitting short-term rental applications, saying that he had followed up through legal channels in the past three years.

In 2020, he was kicked by the media to explode the hegemonic land and tyrant construction

In May 2020, the Commissioner of Auxiliary Police and the Honorary Secretary of the Hong Kong Association and Olympic Committee, Mr Yeung Cho-che, was revealed to have been trespassively built and fenced off 5 square feet of official land in front of the house in Pak Kong New Village, Sai Kung for garden and parking purposes.

In August 2021, Yeung Cho-che applied for the "regularization of official land", that is, "first hegemony and then lease" of official land, but the Sai Kung Lands Office refused on the grounds that the white platform occupied part of the footpath. The Lands Department asked him to reinstate in September. Yang Zuci eventually removed the fence on the official land, and the government recovered the official land, sealed it with barbed wire, and erected the government official land plaque, but the nearly 8-foot white floor on the official land was not restored.

The barbed wire fence in front of the house has been demolished in March, and the village has announced that it will apply for short-term rent again

"Hong Kong 01" recently discovered that the barbed wire fence and official land plaque of the official land have been removed. Some villagers said that the barbed wire fence and official land signs had been removed in March, and that the footpath left traces of the project, and an October 3 announcement was posted in the village, stating that the Lands Department was considering approving the lease of the official land in front of Yang Zuci's house for consultation with the public.

According to the Lands Department, Yeung Cho-che applied for a short-term lease of official land in August 2021, but refused to grant the lease at that time because the white platform partially occupied the footpath. The DH pointed out that Yeung was willing to demolish the white platform occupying the footpath and approved him to remove the barbed wire and official land plaque at the end of 8. Now that the works have been completed, the Sai Kung Lands Office has processed Yeung's short-term tenancy application in accordance with the established procedures.

Only demolition obstruction of the application platform The application for rented location platform has not been demolished

Why is the platform occupied by Yang on the footpath willing to be demolished, but the platform on the official land has not been restored, and have the authorities recovered the rent of the land for many years? The Lands Department stated that Yeung Cho-che had not been built by him, and the Sai Kung Lands Office had not had sufficient evidence to show that the site was built by the relevant person, so in 2021 it completed the land control operation to take over and enclose the relevant government land.

However, on the issue of recovering the rent of the land for many years, the DH pointed out that the official land had not been occupied at the time of the application, so it did not involve the issue of collecting the rent for many years of the land, but did not respond to whether the rent was recovered in the current year.

Land administration: "first occupy, then return land, and then apply" does not belong to "first hegemony and then rent"

In 2017, the Lands Department stepped up its enforcement action against the occupation of official land and tightened the application for regularisation, stating that on 2017 March 3, it would not accept the application for regularisation of "hegemony before rent" submitted by occupiers. Yang Zuci's occupation of official land is "first occupy, then return the land, and then apply", and the Lands Department believes that the new application does not belong to the first occupation and then the lease.

Yang Zuci: A surveyor has been commissioned to follow up

Yeung responded that he had appointed a professional land surveyor in the past three years to follow up on the matter through legal channels. He also pointed out that he had submitted a short-term tenancy application to the Lands Department to deal with the Government's land use issues that had existed for many years before moving in, and would fully cooperate with the follow-up of the relevant government departments.

The Commissioner of Auxiliary Police and the Honorary Secretary of the Hong Kong Association Olympic Committee, Mr Yeung Cho-che, said that he had commissioned a professional land surveyor to follow up the matter in accordance with the legal channels in the past three years and submitted a short-term tenancy application to the Lands Department.

Local Research Society: If approved, whether it will be "written off" for hegemonic land

Wong Siu-hung, a member of the Local Studies Society, said it was reasonable for the public to have higher moral expectations of officials than the general population, and that if the official land he applied for for a short-term lease was approved, it would be like "writing off" his past occupation of official land.

Moreover, he considered it unreasonable for Yang Zuzhi to demolish only part of the land, because Yang was willing to demolish the land occupying the footpath in order to obtain short-term lease approval, but at the same time he did not restore the official land platform occupied at that time, saying that he did not build it, but the Lands Department allowed the platform to exist.

Mr Wong pointed out that if Yang's short-term rental application is approved, he can continue to enjoy the undemolished land, so he believes that it is unreasonable for Yang to only demolish part of the land, and the public will be surprised by the incident, and eventually Yang Zuzhi and the government's reputation will be damaged.

A few months after the revelation, he was extended as Auxiliary Commissioner Inspectorate

In the turmoil over the misbroadcast of the national anthem, Yeung Cho-che, as the Honorary Secretary General of the Hong Kong Association and Olympic Committee and the Auxiliary Police Chief, was accused of disrespecting athletes during the meeting, and his arrogance was also controversial.

On September 2021, 9, the Hong Kong government asked him to demolish the unauthorized construction and restore the occupied official land, but when Hong Kong 9 and other media visited the site, they found that the construction had not begun at all, and he said that the construction could not start due to weather conditions, and he was finally approved to extend the two-month deadline, at which time he sent a lawyer's letter to Hong Kong 01 requesting the deletion of the aerial film.

At the end of 2021, a few months after the turmoil over his unlawful construction, the Government announced that Yeung Cho-chee would extend his tenure as Auxiliary Commissioner until 2024 July 7.
