Ombudsman's Awards 2022 - The Story of Kam Ling Court
The subject building, Kam Ling Court, is a 13 storeys building at Nos. 10-20 Whitty Street HK which was built in 1963 with 78 domestic units. Most of the owners in this building are elderly.
The chairman and active members of the Kam Ling Court's Owners' Corporation (OC) were all in their eighties. The OC determined to response the received statutory orders and applied to join the rehabilitation subsidy scheme. And these elderly members of the OC worried much for their lack of the knowledge and understanding for planning and proceeding the inspection and repair works.
Mr. Charles Sun, the assigned URA case officer to Kam Ling Court understood the difficulties and problems encountered by the OC of this building, and offered the guidance to the OC all along the journey of the rehabilitation process till the end of the works.
The extra effort by the URA staff to help the needy owners for the successful completion of the project was appreciated by the Office of the Ombudsman for the Ombudsman Award.
