Following is the transcript of remarks by the Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism, Mr Kevin Yeung, at a media session after welcoming travellers taking the inaugural sleeper train of the XRL (Express Rail Link) from Beijing and Shanghai to Hong Kong today (June 16):
Reporter: Would the Mainland authorities increase the train frequency or adding more destinations to improve the train services further?
Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism: We will look at the supply and demand. We will see the response to this service, and then we will liaise with the MTR and of course with the Mainland authorities. And then we will decide whether to increase the frequency or not. Thank you.
