By the end of the year, however, Hong Kong's streets were much cleaner as Miss Super Cleans eradicated the infamous Lap Sap Chung once and for all.

I remember the Clean Hong Kong Campaign and the Lap Sap Chung promotion quite vivdly in the 1970s. See: http://www.info.gov.hk/isd/40th/13.html

In fact when the blue plastic litter bins were introduced to replace the old heavier metal bins, a few got removed from the streets late at night as collectors items!
