Of course releasing birds into the wild is not actually illegal in HK, as I said in an earlier post - not sure, why I put that - but of course it really should be on public health grounds and on environmental protection grounds.
With the Buddhist Association apparently backing the proposal I don't think there'd be any difficulty getting it passed.
AFCD's comment that they believe there are now no releases taking place because they've asked "relevant orgnaisations" not to, just shows what a complete waste of space they are.
