Typhoon "Compasses" struck Hong Kong. The Observatory issued a gale or storm signal No. 8 yesterday (12th), and it is expected to remain at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Although many people went to the waterfront to "chase the wind", on the whole, today’s market conditions are quiet and the shopping malls are sparsely populated. Huang Jiahe, chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Catering Industry Association, said that the business volume in the leisure day industry reaches 250 million Hong Kong dollars, but it is continuous. In the past few days, the industry’s business was hit hard, and a total of 300 million yuan was lost. Among them, the evening market restaurant bookings were "the hardest hit". "A lot of them were cancelled. Restaurants and chain restaurants are more prosperous. It is estimated that employees who still have to go to work can receive a "wind leave" allowance of 1.5 times their hourly salary.

Huang Jiahe believes that consumer vouchers cannot boost the economy under the wind. "The public's response is less enthusiastic than the first period. They may want to save themselves and leave "ammunition" until Christmas." Leung Chun Hua, Chairman of the Hong Kong Catering Management Association Said that the original 8-10 table reservations were cancelled due to the typhoon last night. It is estimated that the business volume of 40,000 yuan will be involved. Today, two restaurants of the group are also closed to ensure the safety of employees.
