On the opening day of the real-name reservation trial for the Po Pin Chau trail in Sai Kung East Country Park, approximately 1,500 people registered to visit. Visitors are limited to 500 per two-hour slot, with a daily maximum of 2,000. Registration is required through the Klook platform, using a person's real name which must be verified upon arrival.
The trial spans all weekends in September, including the Mid-Autumn Festival, and October's National Day Golden Week. Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Mickey Lai reported that operations proceeded smoothly on the first day, due in part to the setup of information centers. He emphasized efforts to manage crowd flows, noting that today's turnout was typical and similar to previous experiences.
Lai further stated that walk-in visitors were accommodated as some reservation slots remained unfilled. Continuous monitoring of crowd flows will continue every weekend, with particular attention during holidays.
