     The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD) today (May 9) announced that the department collected 10 liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) samples from auto-LPG filling stations and LPG terminals on a random basis in April 2014 for laboratory tests. The results showed that the LPG quality of all the samples complies with auto-LPG specifications.
