The Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Law Chi-kwong, said in a radio program today (25th) that it is a long process to mend social rifts and reunite. ” and improve the optimization of the electoral system, it is believed that the risk of re-tear has been reduced.


The risk of tearing is reduced after the implementation of the National Security Law and the electoral reform

Luo Zhiguang said that repairing social rifts and reuniting is a long process. It cannot be solved by one or two policies or holding a forum. We should consider starting from those systems to improve the relationship between the citizens and the government.

With the implementation of the "National Security Law" and the improvement of the electoral system, he believes that the risk of re-tear has been reduced.

He pointed out that people in some places have similar levels of distrust in the government as in Hong Kong. Even if the elected government is elected with a support rate of more than 50%, it may drop to single digits in the future due to certain things, so trust is a floating issue. .

Law Chi-kwong invited different scholars to conduct public policy research on the deep-seated contradictions in Hong Kong two years ago. He said that the work was generally completed and he would submit a report to the Chief Executive during his term of office. However, due to the sensitive description of some documents, he did not intend to make the content public. .

When asked whether his work in office was successful, Law said that he does not like to comment on personal work, but appreciates the willingness of colleagues to challenge, such as revising the Employment Ordinance seven times, especially the revision is not a small repair, but a change of policy.

He also mentioned the cancellation of MPF hedging, saying that after the implementation of the policy, employees can enjoy more choices, more people can "full freedom", the eMPF platform can reduce administrative expenses, and the MPF market will be healthier.

Law Chi-kwong recalls a number of amendments, saying that the term of the current government will come to an end, but labor protection has not come to an end for 25 years. Members urge social welfare organizations to hang the national flag and the regional flag. Calling for heightened vigilance in response to the rebound of the epidemic, MPs advocate compulsory reporting of elder abuse, Luo Zhiguang said that priority should be given to child abuse: expanding the scope and discussing cancellation of hedging in the future.
