Today's Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said in his "Policy Address" that he would launch a revitalization project that "jumps Hong Kong Island South".
Among them, Carrie Lam said that the owner of the Aberdeen Treasure Seafood Shop, which has ceased business, agreed to donate seafood boats to Ocean Park free of charge. The government will promote cooperation between Ocean Park and non-governmental organizations to revitalize the seafood boats in a non-profit way.
Yao Sirong, member of the Legislative Council of the tourism industry, said that this action shows that the Hong Kong Government is determined to "save" the Ocean Park that has been funded to continue operating for one year. It points to the promotion of specific tourism planning in the Southern District, rather than saving the ideal with money alone. "It is better than it seems. It feels like a big white elephant project, but it is more realistic." I think the content will be announced by Ocean Park in the next two months.
Regarding the Hong Kong government’s suspicious move to save the Ocean Park, Yao Sirong said frankly, “The Hong Kong government will not save it. It is only for the rescue, it is only for money? It is a plan?" (data picture)
It is understood that Ocean Park will not make any expenditures on the revitalization of Jumbo Seafood Boats, and mainly rely on non-governmental organizations to take charge of the plan.
Due to the ownership issues involved, the transfer of seafood boats will require amendments to the regulations. It is not expected that the plan will be implemented in the short term.
In the middle of this year, Ocean Park admitted that there was insufficient working capital, and the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council needed to allocate 5.4 billion yuan to extend life and repay the loan. The committee requested Ocean Park to conduct a long-term planning review within one year, which should have been conducted in December this year. The government is now proposing revitalization projects, and its review meeting seems to lack significance.
Yao Sirong said frankly, "The Hong Kong government will not help. It will only use the direction of rescue. It is only for money? It is a plan?" The current practice has mutually beneficial effects in the region, and promotes employment and the development of different industries.

When asked about the current operating difficulties of the Ocean Park, the funds are only sufficient for normal operation until the end of June next year. The ability to participate in the revitalization of the Jumbo Ocean Square will be questioned by outsiders. Yao said that this time the Hong Kong government has conceived a plan to revitalize the scenic spots in the southern district. Staff will be sent to help, "In the past, there have been East Kowloon and Lantau projects, and they have experience to deal with it, and they will never just ask Ocean Park to do it themselves." In addition, he believes that it can integrate the conservation, education and economics of tourism projects in the region. Elements are really good, and the use of funds will be more reasonable.
The Hong Kong Government is currently "rebirth" the Aberdeen Treasure Ocean Boat, which closed in early March. The owner has agreed to donate seafood boats to Ocean Park. The government will revitalize the seafood boats in a non-profit way.

Regarding how to integrate the two attractions, Yao said that the plan is to be announced by Ocean Park in the next two months. The role and function of the seafood boat is currently unknown. "The ugly woman will eventually need to see the family. Achievements must be brought out, and the Hong Kong government has launched an activation framework. There are many conditions for the renewal of life next year.” However, the Hong Kong government is now "rebirth" the Aberdeen Treasure Ocean Boat, which has been closed in early March. Agree to donate seafood boats to the Ocean Park, and the government will revitalize the seafood boats in a non-profit way and turn it into a unique historical, cultural and tourist attraction in the Southern District.

The two Huafang Treasure Seafood Boats and Taibai Seafood Boats located in Deep Bay, Aberdeen have attracted many Chinese and foreign tourists over the years.
Aberdeen has the tradition of seafood boats in the early 1920s. At the end of 1960, businessman Wang Laoji saw business opportunities and raised funds to build a larger treasure seafood boat.
Unfortunately, on October 30, 1971, 6 days before the opening, a Class 4 fire broke out due to welding sparks igniting flammable decoration materials. The entire ship was severely burned, and the accident caused decoration workers and nearby Fishing boat residents were killed and 42 injured.
Later, Wang Lo Kat was unable to reinvest. Later, the "gambling king" Stanley Ho and businessman Zheng Yutong bought the property together in July the following year. They followed the design of the Chinese court and spent 30 million yuan to rebuild. The treasure seafood boat was "reborn" in 1976. Opened in October
The entire Jumbo Seafood Boat is three-storey high, with a total area of 45,000 square feet. It refers to the design of the Chinese court. Not only does it have carved jade bars on the outside, but also has exquisite handmade ornaments and exquisite murals inside.
Stanley Ho’s Shun Tak Group Aberdeen Foods successfully acquired the nearby Taibai Seafood Boat and Cape Palace in the 1980s. Melco International acquired more than 80% of the shares in Aberdeen Foods in 1993 and owns the current "Jumbo Kingdom". From time to time, it was reported that the business was closed, and the business was officially closed at the beginning of the epidemic in early March.
