 Notes: From 2000 onwards, a new survey method by using remote sensing technology and a new classification of land uses have been  adopted.
 The results of the survey provide a set of more detailed land uses, particularly in the rural non-built-up areas. Hence, figures presented
 above are not strictly comparable with those for years 1999 and before.
 Figures are as at December of the year.
 嘆Residential land developed by private developers except village houses, Home Ownership Scheme (HOS)/Private Sector Participation
 Scheme (PSPS) and temporary housing areas.
 Include HOS/PSPS and temporary housing areas.
 Include temporary structures.
 Include open storage areas.
 Include parks, stadiums and playgrounds.
