The government announced yesterday (23rd) that forcing citizens to enter restaurants, theaters and gyms must use "Travel with peace of mind", which has caused controversy.

"Hong Kong 01" asked a number of "non-organized" legislative council candidates for direct elections to find out their positions and views on expanding the mandatory scope of "travel with peace of mind". At least three criticized the practice as "disturbing the people."


Lau Cheuk Yu, a candidate from the Southwest New Territories and a member of the Tsuen Wan District Council, criticized the practice for affecting people’s livelihood and business, and nuisance to the public. He believed that most people did not need to travel to and from the Mainland. He advocated allowing people who do not intend to cross the border to "fill paper". He considered it compulsory Tracking whereabouts should only be applicable to Hong Kong residents who intend to go to the Mainland.


Lau Cheuk Yu said that he had visited many Tsuen Kwai Tsing Markets such as Yeung Uk Road earlier, and the merchants were very opposed to the mandatory use of "safe travel" to enter and exit the market.

Liu Zhuoyu: Mandatory tracking of whereabouts should only apply to cross-boundary Hong Kong residents

Lau Cheuk Yu said that he had visited Yeung Uk Road and many other Tsuen Kwai Tsing markets earlier, and the merchants were very opposed to the mandatory use of "safe travel" to enter and exit the markets, and pointed out that the new measures had caused their business to drop by 30%.

He believes that some people want to pass customs to and from the mainland, but believe that "most citizens don't want to walk around" and that mandatory tracking should only apply to Hong Kong people who intend to go to the mainland.

Tsai Ming-hei, a candidate for the southeastern New Territories and vice chairman of the Sai Kung District Council, pointed out that the first expansion of the mandatory scope of "safe travel" has been very disturbing to the people, and he described the new practice as even more disturbing to the people.

Cai Mingxi: The practice is very disturbing

Tsai Ming-hei, a candidate for the southeastern New Territories and vice chairman of the Sai Kung District Council, pointed out that the government’s first expansion of the mandatory scope of "safe travel" has been very disturbing to the people. He described the new practice as even more disturbing to the people. "Travel" believes that even if the use of "travel with peace of mind" is mandatory, it may not be able to successfully clear customs with the mainland. I am worried that even if Hong Kong makes great efforts and the people are greatly affected, the expected results will ultimately not be achieved.

He emphasized that he does not object to the necessity of customs clearance, but in the long run, he hopes to clear customs with the international community. He believes that both also have the need for customs clearance. He emphasized that if Hong Kong people want to go to the mainland, they can use a "health code" and be tracked voluntarily.

When asked if he would worry about being touched on the "red line" because of his opposition to the new measures for "Travel with peace of mind", he emphasized that it was only a rational policy discussion, and that it was something he truly believed in. He believed that the original intention of the government's anti-epidemic policy should be to bring benefits to the public Convenient, he just gave a personal opinion, "D, DQ, I don't know, I'm telling things I believe and telling the truth."

Hong Kong Island West candidate and member of the Islands District Fong Longfei said that the new measures are "absolutely not good," referring to elderly people living alone asking him for help, worrying that they will not be able to eat in the restaurant in the future.

Fong Longfei, a candidate for Hong Kong Island West and a member of the Islands District, said that the new measures are "absolutely not good", referring to elderly people living alone asking him for help, worrying that they will not be able to eat in the restaurant in the future. Yeah, but there is no smart phone, can you call it?" He hopes to contact and discuss with the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department, the Civil Affairs Department and other departments, hoping that the government will exempt some elderly and other people in need from using peace of mind to travel.

Zeng Liwen pointed out that "Traveling with peace of mind" hastily developed and there are many security problems. Many people use mobile phones of foreign brands, which may affect national security.

Zeng Liwen: Many citizens use foreign mobile phone brands or affect national security

New Territories North candidate Zeng Lai-wen made it clear that she opposed all measures to "travel with peace of mind", saying that after two years of epidemics, the public has fallen into epidemic prevention fatigue. In terms of people's livelihood, "traveling with peace of mind" not only prevents poor citizens from using public facilities. It also caused small businesses to suffer financial losses. "For the new crown disease, which has been declining mortality and infection rates, the epidemic prevention has long been outdated." It also pointed out that the conflicts among Hong Kong people are extremely deep, and the trust of all classes in the government is deteriorating. The citizens trust the government again.

Zeng Liwen believes that the government, as a person in power, should take the initiative to withdraw tracking software such as "Travel with peace of mind". This approach can help mend the relationship between the government and the public. Mobile phones are mostly foreign brands, worrying about "traveling with peace of mind" or affecting the national security. "If a hacker steals the movement data of all Hong Kong people and sells it to a criminal group, it may cause serious casualties-a small amount of robbery, a large amount of robbery. It is national security. Therefore, for the welfare of the public, it is also conducive to government governance. I will definitely propose to withdraw "Travel with peace of mind."
