The joint letter pointed out that Macau has launched the "Cash Sharing Scheme" since 2008, covering both Macau's permanent and non-permanent residents, and believes that Hong Kong needs to expand the application of cash coupons to non-permanent residents.
The letter argues that various provinces and cities in the Mainland have introduced various subsidies to attract talents. Even if Hong Kong cannot achieve the same level as the Mainland, it will at least allow non-permanent residents to enjoy the same treatment and benefits as Hong Kong people, "to show goodwill to them" and "for the sake of goodwill". Hong Kong keeps these talents.”
