Fluoride

Quick question for my Hong Kong readers...does anyone know how much, if any, fluoride there is in Hong Kong's tap water?

Update

Turns out it does...about 0.48 mg/L. Did you know boiling the water only concerntrates the flouride? And did you know a search for such things reveals plenty who think flouride is a Government conspiracy to pollute our water? You find out the darndest things on Google.

According to the Water Supplies Department, yes. But they don't say how much.

Thanks for that. I've rung them and they're getting back to me, but this report says it is around 0.48 mg/L. The WHO guideline is 1.5 mg/L...
