Lei Chan Tong is no longer the Co-ordinator of the Transportation Infrastructure Office (GIT), a position he assumed in 2007 when he was appointed by former Secretary for Transport and Public Works Lau Si Io. Mr. Lei is stepping down as his term ended on November 2014, the Portuguese-speaking newspaper Tribuna de Macau reports. The decision was motivated by personal reasons although he will continue to serve as a public servant. During his tenure, Mr. Lei was in charge of the co-ordination of the Light Rapid Transit (LRT) System, a project that has been delayed and run substantially over budget. The Secretary for Transport and Public Works, Raimundo Rosário, has yet to announce Mr. Lei’s successor.
