MOVING TIME AT TAMAR - THE STANDARD UPDATE

The government starts moving into its new headquarters at Tamar in six phases from today. Chief Executive Donald Tsang Yam-kuen visited the site yesterday along with his wife Salina Tsang Pow Siu-mei and spent about 30 minutes checking the progress of his new office. Tsang is expected to move in later this month.
The commerce, industry and tourism branch of the Commercial and Economic Development Bureau will be the first to move in as its lease at One Pacific Place expires early next month. The branch - with its 120 staff - will be located on the 22nd and 23rd floors of the West Wing.
Builders are working 18-hour days, between 6am and midnight, to complete the job.

Chairman of the Hong Kong Construction Industry Employees' General Union, Chow Luen-kiu, said he understands from workers that conditions have improved.
Media coverage has raised concerns over whether the health of workers was being compromised in an attempt to complete the work in time for Tsang to deliver his final policy address at the new Legislative Council in October.
More ventilation systems and fans have been installed and workers reminded they are not forced to work overtime, though many are willing to work long hours, Chow said.
It is understood that air conditioning and electric wiring in certain floors have yet to be completed.
"It is not the workers' responsibility whether the work can be completed on time," Chow said. "If you want to speed it up, it can be done. The workers are capable of doing it. But whether it is worth it, is another matter."
The Legislative Council Commission voiced its concern over the slow progress of the new Legco complex after a second site visit last week.
Some lawmakers said they will not move in unless all construction is finished.
A meeting in the middle of this month will be held to decide whether the move to the new complex will take place as scheduled.
