Dear Drainage Services Department,

I am writing this to ask for ShapeFile of drainage pipeline. I am a student at HKUST conducting project related to Hong Kong drainage system. I would like to know if you can provide the ShapeFile of all the pipeline or some main drainage pipes. If it's not possible, may I know if there's another way to access the data?
I am looking forward to seeing your reply! Thanks a lot!

Yours faithfully,
Matthew Liu

let us know and provide details on why it is considered that there is an
overwhelming public interest to justify disclosure.
5. Please let me know if you need any further information. Thanks.
