Abstract
Much disturbance has bee caused at the site of Hong Kong's new airport, none the least of which is the usurping of the local villagers and their relocation to Tung Chung. Surprisingly, it's not only people who are being relocated. An old temple used by the villagers for several generations is being dismantled and rebuilt in a new location. Angela Tam took a look at how it is being done.
