Chief Executive-designate Li Jiachao is about to announce the list of the new team. Today, a full list of accountability officials has been circulated wildly in the political circle. Among them, Carrie Lam's "love general" and Secretary of the Civil Service Nie Dequan will not join Li Jiachao's team. Permanent Secretary Yang He Beiyin took office.
Qiu Yinghua, CEO of Greater Bay Area Airlines, is appointed as Director of Commerce and Economics
The next government structure will be changed to "six divisions and fifteen bureaus".
According to the circulating list, Qiu Yinghua, director and chief executive officer of the Greater Bay Area Airlines (GBA), will serve as the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, succeeding Yau Tenghua.
After the reorganization, the Transport and Housing Bureau will be split into the "Housing Bureau" and the "Transportation and Logistics Bureau". The former is expected to be headed by the Director of Architectural Services, Ho Wing-yin, and the former Permanent Secretary of the Development Bureau, Lam Sai Hung, who retired last year, will be the Secretary for Transport and Logistics. Chen Fan, director of transportation and housing, "has nothing to stay low."
As for Nie Takquan, who is regarded as Lam Cheng's "favorite general", his whereabouts are still unknown. It was rumored earlier that he would be transferred to the Secretary for Labour and Welfare, but the latest news indicates that he will not join the new government; Yin was promoted to director.
