"Reuters" reported today (16th) that Tara Joseph, the president of the American Chamber of Commerce in the United States, said that he must be quarantined on the 21st because he could not return to Hong Kong. At the same time, he called on the Hong Kong government to relax restrictions on epidemic prevention.


"Reuters" reported today (16th) that Tara Joseph, the president of the American Chamber of Commerce in the United States, said that because he was unable to return to Hong Kong and had to undergo quarantine on the 21st, he also called on the Hong Kong government to relax epidemic prevention restrictions, so he decided to resign. She will stay on until the new president.


Zao Taina told "Reuters" that according to the current return to Hong Kong quarantine policy, she returned to Hong Kong from the high-risk United States, so she must be quarantined in a quarantine hotel for 21 days.

"My nature is not to advocate something and then start to isolate like a clown." She teased, "Hong Kong has entered the new normal too quickly. You can appeal to those who don't mind this new normal and see opportunities. American companies are in the future. There are many things to do in the past few years, but I believe Hong Kong is still full of potential."

Zao Tai Na was a reporter for "Reuters", and she urged the Hong Kong government to relax the quarantine regulations when entering Hong Kong on behalf of the American Chamber of Commerce.

She said that she will continue to serve as the president for up to six months so that the Chamber of Commerce can find a successor.

Before attending the guild this morning, Chief Executive Carrie Lam confirmed in a press conference that Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan Chase, had arrived in Hong Kong earlier and stayed for a short 32-hour stay and was granted an exemption from quarantine.

She said that Dimon was approved by Chief Secretary for Administration Li Jiachao in his personal capacity. "As far as I know, the rationale cited is economics. After all, it is a very large bank with important business in Hong Kong. Related people need to come here for more than a day of work.” She said that Dimon's entire trip is restricted, so the risk is completely controllable.
