The new crown pneumonia ravaged the world for a year, and travel restrictions were imposed in many places.

Foreign media reported that the European Union intends to include the United States, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on the "white list," and immigrants do not need to be isolated.

Members of the tourism industry estimate that the new measures can attract family visits and public officials, but there is not much incentive to travel because they still need to be quarantined after returning to Hong Kong.

Yao Sirong, a member of the travel industry’s legislative council, said on the TV program "Millenniums" on Radio Hong Kong that the new measures reflect the EU’s recognition of Hong Kong’s anti-epidemic results. There are not many tourists, because they still have to go to the hotel for quarantine after returning to Hong Kong, which is expensive.

When asked whether Hong Kong can make reciprocal arrangements, he mentioned that by relaxing a certain degree of restrictions overseas, community outbreaks are prone to occur. The Hong Kong government is determined to clear customs with the Mainland, and the premise is also zero infection. I believe the authorities will not take the risk.

Yao Sirong estimates that the EU's new measures can attract family visits and civil servants.
