Long Term Possibilities
Some rail schemes were suggested in the Railway Development Strategy 2000 and they should be further investigated if planning parameters change significantly. For example, the East-West Kowloon Link would provide a shortcut between Mong Kok and Kwun Tong while the Chek Lap Kok Link would provide a path between the Airport and Tuen Mun.

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or term:
“The compensations of calamity are made apparent to the understanding also, after long intervals of time. A fever, a mutilation, a cruel disappointment, a loss of wealth, a loss of friends, seems at the moment unpaid loss, and unpayable. But the sure years reveal the deep remedial force that underlies all facts.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A radical is one of whom people say “He goes too far.” A conservative, on the other hand, is one who “doesn’t go far enough.” Then there is the reactionary, “one who doesn’t go at all.” All these terms are more or less objectionable, wherefore we have coined the term “progressive.” I should say that a progressive is one who insists upon recognizing new facts as they present themselves—one who adjusts legislation to these new facts.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
