Hong Kong leader vows to ‘consider all things’ for future extreme weather prep



John Lee defends day school suspension last Friday and says decision by No 2 official was ‘absolutely correct’, after backlash by parents

Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu on Tuesday defended the decision by Eric Chan Kwok-ki, the city’s No 2 official and chair of the steering committee on handling extreme weather, and said such preparatory actions were “absolutely correct”.

Last Thursday, the committee decided to suspend all day schools for the following day as some forecasts warned the city faced its “fifth-largest daily rainfall” on record amid the impact of storm Danas.
