The following will analyze factors such as how the two operators will distribute consumer coupons, and the number of merchants they will cover in the future, so that readers can consider whether a “transfer” is necessary.
[08:00] The first round of 5,000 yuan of electronic consumer coupons was distributed on April 7, and the second round of 5,000 yuan will be distributed during the summer vacation.
If the ban on outbound travel is lifted at that time, quarantine will not be required when returning to Hong Kong. The public should note that the vouchers cannot be used for outbound travel, but can be used for local travel.
Some scholars have analyzed that consumer vouchers have a limited effect on boosting the economy. They bluntly said that "it's unsustainable after buying one round", emphasizing that whether the economy improves or not depends on the government's attitude towards the epidemic, "If you send money on one hand, but the other side is heavy. It's like digging your own grave."
