Jason Poon, managing director of China Technology which was a sub-contractor on the Hung Hom project, says the judge-led commission was biased towards the government and the MTR Corporation. The man who first revealed the shoddy construction work at Hung Hom MTR Station says he plans to file for a judicial review next week over the report published by a government-appointed commission of inquiry into the scandal, RTHK reports. "However, the current practice is trying to make some remedial works, additional works, and use of the safety factors to cope with the current structural integrity problems." Transport and Housing Secretary Frank Chan told the same radio program that the government will look into who within the Highways Department should be held responsible for the substandard work at Hung Hom. Lawmaker and former railway boss Michael Tien urged the government to hold the then director of the department to account.
