Japanese War Time Tunnel at Black Point

I was doing a bit of unrelated research when I came across an interesting EIA report (https://www.epd.gov.hk/eia/register/report/eiareport/eia_1252006/html/ex...). It seems that back in 2006 there was a plan to build a Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) receiving terminal at Black Point (https://goo.gl/maps/eTRsMMFojdxTUNu2A), though it appears to have been subsequently abandoned.

Chi Ma Wan tunnel [????- ]

I did not know that there were WW2 tunnels in Lantau, but this looks like one. Relatively small with only one entrance L shaped. Next to Temple South crag with good command over the coastline below. The other option is that it is a mine prospect. No records of it in the maps checked, for example this one in the industrialhk web.
