Li Huiqiong said that the current epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic work is a social focus. Government departments have adjusted their services in response to the epidemic situation, but the Electoral Affairs Office has not adjusted it in response to the epidemic situation. She suggested that the government postpone the update of voter information and the new registration deadline. Li Huiqiong said she would write to the Registration and Electoral Office and the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau to make relevant suggestions.
Li Huiqiong pointed out that competition in the next functional constituency elections is fierce, and Hong Kong is now facing unprecedented challenges. Social "riots" have severely hit Hong Kong in the past six months, and the pneumonia epidemic has also impacted the Hong Kong economy. She mentioned that some Democrats said that if more than half of the seats are passed, no government bill will be passed. She called on supporters of the establishment to avoid registering as voters before the deadline.

In addition, Chen Hengzheng, a member of the Legislative Council of the DAB, expressed the hope that the government will launch the second round of epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic funds as soon as possible to provide support for industries not benefiting from the first round of funds and set up unemployment assistance. Party friend Ke Chongsheng pointed out that restaurants, laundry shops, and beauty industries under the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department's Cooked Food Center did not benefit from the first round of epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic funds. He hoped that the government would launch a second round of funds to "leak leaks" and point out that Contacts with the public revealed that many fund applicants failed to fully grasp the fund information and requested the government to strengthen publicity with relevant stakeholders.
