Revelation that Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying was personally involved in a controversial decision to scale down a public housing project in Wang Chau in Yuen Long is poised to deal a severe blow to his re-election bid. Will it be the last straw on the back of the camel? You bet.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, a spokesman of Leung\u2019s office confirmed his boss had chaired a cross-departmental group meeting on the Wang Chau project in 2013.<\/span> The spokesman claimed Leung, since taking office in 2012, \u201chas been chairing cross-departmental meetings almost every week, to push forward and coordinate the work of more than 20 medium and long-term land development projects.\u201d<\/p>\n

No details of the 20-odd projects were given.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
