Chief Executive Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor led officials to visit Beijing to attend the 100th Anniversary of the Communist Party of China today (28th). The reporter of "Hong Kong 01" learned that Carrie Lam will also strive for the implementation of isolation-free customs clearance between Shenzhen and Hong Kong as soon as possible during this trip.
It is understood that the Shenzhen government initially tends to use July 11 as an important node to negotiate customs clearance as soon as possible.
Once there is a breakthrough in the customs clearance between Shenzhen and Hong Kong, the Macau government's previous "request for 28 days to zero" may be changed to match the latest developments in the agreement between Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

July 1 this year coincides with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. Carrie Lam has visited Beijing for four consecutive days starting today. His colleagues include the Financial Secretary Chen Maobo, the Director of the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau Zeng Guowei, the new Security Director Tang Bingqiang, and the head of the disciplined forces (which is expected to include the new police officer) Division Chief Xiao Zebian), which means that Carrie Lam, who has changed his cabinet recently, will lead two new officials to Beijing. It is expected that there will be opportunities to meet and communicate with national leaders during the itinerary on the 4th.
The new Chief Secretary for Administration, Li Jiachao, stayed in Hong Kong to preside over the handover reception on the morning of July 1st.
In addition to celebrating the 100th anniversary of the party and leading the new team to meet with central officials during this visit to Beijing, it is reported that the Hong Kong government also hopes to use this trip to strive for customs clearance with the mainland as soon as possible.
The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong continues to be stable and meets the requirements for customs clearance. Academician Zhong Nanshan of the Chinese Academy of Engineering pointed out a few days ago that due to the recent good control of the epidemic in Hong Kong, it is expected that limited customs clearance with the mainland should be possible in July, and the epidemic in Guangzhou has been effectively controlled.
In the next one to two weeks, the top event will be the 100th Anniversary of the Communist Party of China. All parts of the country are strictly guarding against the epidemic. It is reported that even after the celebration on July 1, the mainland will not relax epidemic prevention measures at once, and Shenzhen’s idea is to strictly control the epidemic to 7 On October 10, it can be discussed and released afterwards. In other words, July 11 is an important node.

Some people in the business community pointed out that the Guangdong Province had an epidemic earlier, but the relevant authorities responded quickly. Recently, Guangzhou's medium-risk areas announced "zeroing", and the city is a low-risk area; and half of the people in Guangdong province have received at least one dose of the vaccine. , Is advancing at full speed, believing that Hong Kong and the Mainland have negotiated conditions for customs clearance.
The person anticipates that there will be quotas and circuit breakers in the early stages of customs clearance, and hopes to strive for business bubbles in the first stage.
Carrie Lam said at the epidemic press conference on the 21st of this month that when the epidemic situation in Guangdong Province stabilizes, the "Easy to Hong Kong" will be implemented first and the customs clearance plan will be discussed with the central government.
As for Macau, Lam Cheng recently stated that Hong Kong has formally started discussions with Macau on how to implement the passage between Hong Kong and Macau. The authorities will set up quotas to require relevant persons to be vaccinated and undergo virus testing. However, the Macau authorities stated on the 24th that they will implement the implementation between Hong Kong and Macau. The conditions for convenient customs clearance are still 28 consecutive days without local infections, which seems to be a certain degree of difficulty.
Macau Chief Executive He Yicheng will also go to Beijing, and the two SAR chiefs may have the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas.
When receiving enquiries, Liu Zhaojia, the vice chairman of the National Hong Kong and Macau Research Association, said that the central government understands that customs clearance as soon as possible is beneficial to Hong Kong’s economic development and believes that the central government will also take care of Hong Kong’s needs as much as possible. However, Shenzhen has spent a lot of effort to control the epidemic and cannot allow it to appear after customs clearance. Any discrepancy thinks that the central government will first consider the overall interests of the people of the whole country in handling customs clearance issues, rather than Hong Kong's own needs, and cannot meet Hong Kong's economic needs. Therefore, he believes that customs clearance issues are "urgent."
