The number of new immigrants in the Xinwu Village Constituency is high. Is it equal to the establishment of a postal warehouse? "Hong Kong 01" interviewed a number of District Council candidates in Hong Fu Village and Shui Chuen Au Village. Everyone has different views.

Hongfu’s proportion of new immigrants is high, and the population under seven years of residence (including children) accounts for 24% of the village, which is higher than the average of 12% in the whole territory.

At the beginning, the democratic candidate Chen Shuhui believed that the new immigrants, like the locals, are concerned with the transportation, planning and other issues in the new district. As long as the candidates do a good job in the people's livelihood, they can win the hearts of the people. However, with the upgrade of the anti-reform exercise, Chen Shuhui, who has a clear stand, gradually found that some of the new immigrants who had "counted on" began to hate him and avoid him. Chen felt "more or less confidence in (election). influences".

Another candidate, the People’s Federation of China, Xu Junshao refused the invitation of the reporter’s visit.

Is it difficult for pan-people to win new immigrant support? "They don't understand the partisan position."

Hong Fu Village, Yuen Long, which was occupied in 2015, is the first public housing estate in the new development zone of Hung Shui Kiu. In the district board election in November, Hongfu Village will welcome the first district board member.

The 29-year-old Chen Shuhui, who is more familiar with the former Secretary-General of the League of Education, former deputy convener of the FDC, is at the forefront of the umbrella movement. Today, he is a member of the Zhu Kaidi New West team and the community officer of Hongfu Village. Xu Junshao, a member of the Tianshuiwei District before the establishment of the Alliance, competed for a seat in the new constituency Hong Fu.

Chen Shuhui said that Hongfu as a new district, transportation planning is far from perfect, and new immigrant neighborhoods, like local people, are most concerned about these livelihood issues. (Photo picture / Ou Jia Le photo)

In May 2018, he was stationed at Hongfu Service. He found that there were serious planning problems in the area. The public services such as post offices and bank counters were missing. The traffic was very inconvenient. The flood bridge was located between Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai. Residents had to rely on LRT. Travel, but the LRT is often full at both ends, and the Hung Shui Bridge Station has long queues. On the bus side, Chen Shuhui said that many grassroots residents in Hongfu Village often did not return to work at nine to five hours, but the traffic arrangement was still a nine-to-five idea, which also led to a lack of supply and demand.

"In fact, residents in the district, regardless of whether they are new immigrants or not, are all concerned with this." Chen Shuhui said, "Before the (anti-revision) movement, they (new immigrants) did not care about politics and did not understand the party and position."

Chen Shuhui tried a new immigrant neighborhood with a close relationship, and now he ran away as soon as he saw him. "It is really uncomfortable," he said. "More or less have an impact on (election) confidence." (Photo / Ou Jia Le photo)

"After the exercise, some new immigrants called me a "black shirt."

Chen Shuhui, who is actively striving to improve transportation and family support, successfully entered the new immigrants' milk circle and gained a lot of recognition. However, in this year's anti-reform exercise, Chen Shuhui has never avoided the position. He has held an anti-reform forum in the district. He called on the neighbours to participate in the "7.1 Grand Parade". In the near future, he also proposed a thorough investigation of "7.21" and the reorganization of Yuen Long District. parliament.

"My face is clear." Chen Shuhui said that this clarity made him lose some supporters, especially the original new immigrant supporters. "After August, I felt that some new immigrants started not picking up my leaflet. I also heard people say that I am a "black shirt."" He tried a new immigrant neighborhood that had a good relationship. Now he quickly ran away when he saw him. . "It is really uncomfortable," Chen Shuhui paused. "More or less have an impact on (election) confidence."

Chen Shuhui said that new immigrants can only vote if they live in Hong Kong for seven years, but those who do not have votes can have a strong influence. "The network around them is not small, and it is more than the local bonding." Strong." Most of the housewives who came to Hong Kong through marriage between China and Hong Kong, after sending their children to school every day, would have a cup of tea chat, and everyone established a WeChat group, gradually forming a close community network. He knows that a small number of new immigrant women still support themselves, but they will not take the initiative to help Chen fight for support, so as not to conflict with other neighborhoods.

The district election has been on the line. After distributing the reorganization of the District Council and improving the traffic theme leaflet, Chen Shuhui began to send a green community leaflet, hoping to bring out more political platforms. "This single-on-one personal contest, the quality of the candidate, gives the impression of the most basic thing, and is willing to vote for one's own vote, which is about the understanding and imagination of the whole situation in Hong Kong." Chen Shuhui said .

Another candidate, the People’s Federation of China’s Jianlian Xu Junshao, rejected the reporter’s invitation to visit through the assistant.
