Mak Soi Kun questions UM tunnel’s quality
Lawmaker Mak Soi Kun delivered a written inquiry to the government questioning the responsible authority about the repairs that are being conducted on the tunnel which connects the University of Macau’s (UM) campus to Taipa. Mak revealed that his team recently visited the tunnel and they found loose concrete and peeling paint on walls, as well as water leakages inside the tunnel. Mak is worried about the tunnel’s safety issues and the impact it could have on Macau’s image. He pointed out that despite the facility being used for less than four years, it has already sustained significant damage. Mak urges the related government department to disclose the maintenance fees of the tunnel.
