BENEFITS

What positive (and potentially negative) impacts do you expect for all of Lamma Island, beyond South Lamma (besides potential further price increases in house sales and rentals)?

The proposed development will provide hundreds of job opportunities for Lamma people from casual workers to managers during the construction and operation stage. It also provide opportunities for aspiring entrepreneurs to set up their business to satisfy, among other things, the operation and maintenance needs of the facilities, logistic and catering, souvenirs and local produces as well as welfares and services for its occupants and visitors. Some of the visitors will invariably spill over to other parts of Lamma during their visits. The development will be a catalyst for rejuvenation of the whole Lamma Island, and more people will benefit from a growing economy than a stagnant one.

The development may spur more public and international interests in Lamma, not only for real estate development but also its potential as a resort island – a resort with a difference. The Baroque on Lamma will be a model of how to marry the natural environment and habitats with a development and how a design with care and vision can create a sustainable community. This successful model can become an example for others to follow or to further develop.
