The Hong Kong Government further closed customs, and citizens who originally traveled to Macao by waterway switched to Hong Kong by land via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Some Hong Kong people said that when they went to Macau to get masks from local friends and relatives, they were worried that the Shenzhen Bay Bridge, Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the airport are still clearing customs, and they are worried about the spread of the epidemic. The Hong Kong people who live in Zhuhai with their wives and children also support customs clearance. They will be ready to pick them up and reunite in Hong Kong before they are fully closed. They also said that the market in Zhuhai is quiet.

The Hong Kong Government further closed customs, and citizens who originally traveled to Macao by waterway switched to Hong Kong by land via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Some Hong Kong people said that when they went to Macau to get masks from local friends and relatives, they were worried that the Shenzhen Bay Bridge, Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the airport are still clearing customs, and they are worried about the spread of the epidemic. The Hong Kong people who live in Zhuhai with their wives and children also support customs clearance. They will be ready to pick them up and reunite in Hong Kong before they are fully closed. They also said that the market in Zhuhai is quiet.

In response to the Wuhan pneumonia epidemic, the Tuen Mun Ferry Terminal and the Sheung Wan Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal at the Macau Waterway Transportation Hub have been closed. Passengers must travel by road to the local area via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Hong Kong citizen Ms. Liu said that she would take a boat to Macau in the past. Today (4th), she needs to use the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, mainly to get masks from relatives and friends in Macau. She said that she had used the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge in the past, but this time the traffic was significantly less. Miss Liu went on to point out that there are still two gates that are still open to worry about the epidemic situation, "Try to be as good as possible around you."

Chief Executive Lin Zhengyue stated that the global search and purchase of masks by the Hong Kong Government is not too successful. On the other side, Macao citizens can purchase 10 masks every 10 days with an ID card. The Chief Executive of the Macau Government, Macao He Yicheng, said at a press conference: When it comes to masks, Portugal has been bought by me.

Prepare Hong Kong dad to take Zhuhai wife and children to Hong Kong for comprehensive customs clearance

Because his wife and children live in Zhuhai, Mr. Cai often uses the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge to travel to the local area, because the bridge is still open and closed to him. In view of the serious epidemic situation, Mr. Cai is in favor of comprehensive customs clearance, and plans to take his wife and children to Hong Kong to prevent the family from separating the two places after the comprehensive customs clearance. He said that 80% to 90% of citizens in Zhuhai have stopped going out and the market is quiet. Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yue'e said at a press conference on Monday that he would be sympathetic to individual immigration cases, including those holding two-way permits who came to Hong Kong to take care of their children. The Director of Immigration may extend the stay period for visiting relatives.

Miss He said that Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is used today to travel to Macau. In the past, Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge was used, but this time the traffic was significantly less. In the past, when buses came, the buses were full and many mainlanders passed through. But today only a few people ride. She went on to point out that since the beginning of the Anti-Amendment Movement, the number of people using the pass has decreased, and it is even more apparent today.

Miss Wu from Zhuhai stated that she originally flew to Russia via Hong Kong a few days ago and learned yesterday (3rd) that there were only two crossings left by the government in the early morning, so she immediately arrived in Hong Kong via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge today. She pointed out that she used to go to Hong Kong by boat in the past, but now she can only cross the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and frankly feels inconvenient. In addition, she also said that when traveling by coach today, the number was significantly smaller than in the past, and "half the number of buses (compared to the past) was rampant."
