Please take a moment to consider signing this petition to save some Hong Kong WWII history.
The link below is to a petition addressed to the LCSD to save Pillbox 16 & 17 near and on Repulse Bay. My reasons for choosing these two pillboxes specifically is because they are in areas where there are a lot of tourists, and are easily accessible for a large number of people, so it makes sense for the LCSD to invest a small amount of money into them to keep them alive as educational pieces for the Hong Kong public.
There are some beautiful photos on this site that feature this WWII landmark in them, let's keep it alive so that it can feature in many more to come!

Pillbox 16 / Lyon Light 16
Hi Harry,
The "raised pillbox" is actually a Lyon Light shelter - Pillbox 16 has already been demolished. I made the same mistake when I first saw it, then Rob Weir kindly corrected me (see http://gwulo.com/comment/7060#comment-7060). You can read more about the relationship between Lyon Lights and Pillboxes at http://gwulo.com/node/19582
I've just signed your petition. Good luck with your project.
Regards, David
