Lantau

Lantau Island, part of Hong Kong, is currently in the news for several reasons. Firstly, it is connected to a recent HK$10 million knifepoint robbery in Sheung Wan, as police arrested a 23-year-old suspect in northern Lantau in connection with the crime. Secondly, autonomous vehicle testing is expanding on the island, with routes now approved from the airport island to Sunny Bay and Tung Chung town centre. This marks a significant step in Hong Kong's efforts to implement driverless technology. Finally, while not exclusively about Lantau, the availability of smart meters for subdivided flats meeting new government standards, supplied by CLP Power, is relevant to the island's residents. These developments highlight Lantau's role in both crime-related incidents and technological advancements within Hong Kong.
