[12:10] Liu Mingwei pointed out that in the past six months, the park has sincerely listened to public expectations and opinions. Most of them hope to return to their original aspirations, conservation and education, and reflect fun and excitement. As an important landmark for Hong Kong people, they hope to be responsible for their own profits and losses. Try yoga, camping, etc. The park will be innovative in the future. The park is not just a theme park, but also hopes to attract a wide range of people to visit frequently.
[12:05] Some parks in Ji Ocean Park can be enjoyed by the public for free. This will change the situation where everyone buys admission tickets once and a half a year. Some parks will also change the judgment, and some facilities will be autonomous and responsible for their own profits and losses.
After the redevelopment, it will focus on the "Dynamic Hong Kong Island South" project in the southern district, which will become an important link. Development in and outside the park, water tourism and other areas will have the opportunity to develop scenic spots. We hope to support the project.
The park needs time and resources to change, and the government needs help. The park was only opened on the 129th last year. There are still other expenditures under difficult circumstances. The finances will be self-sufficient after the reorganization.
[12:00] Qiu Tenghua pointed out that after applying for funding, he did not stop collecting opinions and discussed in-depth with different stakeholders, including the Legislative Council, District Councils, the Tourism Sector Strategy Group, conference, exhibition, catering, tourism planning, etc., education and conservation initiatives Recreation groups have provided opinions and are happy to take the initiative to exchange ideas and hope that the park will continue to operate.
