Vernon Moore, chairman of the New Hong Kong Tunnel Company, told legislators Friday any delay now would affect the company's ability to generate what is considered to be a reasonable return and would mean even higher toll increases in the future.

The building was designed to be in triangular shape because it could provide 20% more of the office area to enjoy the harbour view as compared with the square or rectangular shaped buildings.

The government said in a statement that the bridge and tunnels had a combined annual net revenue of HK$1 billion and that the government planned to schedule HK$600 million to HK$700 million a year for repayment of principal and interest.
The deal is part of a series of asset securitisation and sales planned by the government in its bid to curb a massive budget deficit that some analysts say could top HK$60 billion for the fiscal year ending March 2004.
Analysts expect the securitisation issue will be split into tranches of between three and 10 years and offered in Hong Kong and US dollar tranches to attract local and international investors, including retail investors.

 Wyllie Group - Bill Wyllie, A Personal Profile
His report on the company's state of affairs revealed that net shareholders' funds were down to HK$1 million and that the company had lost HK$1.1 million in 1963 and was continuing to operate with unsustainable losses.
These included the obvious need for modern financial controls and reporting from every single company in the group, the settling of all outstanding litigation, the streamlining of overheads by cutting out unnecessary fat, a comprehensive debt reduction programme and, most important of all, the elimination of loss-makers both in Hong Kong and overseas.
Not long after this, the former Chairman and Managing Director of the company was removed from office and in November Mr Wyllie was appointed Executive Chairman with the task of developing a recovery programme which, in many ways, was a mirror image of that adopted a few years earlier in HUTCHISON INTERNATIONAL.
