Yesterday, the Legislative Council held the first Q&A session of the Chief Executive after the change of government. Mr. Xie Weiquan, a member of the construction, testing, planning and industrial sector, questioned that the Chief Executive, Li Jiachao, was not active enough on the problem of brain drain.

He further explained on the RTHK program this morning (7th) that the Hong Kong government has never had a complete and proactive plan for population policy.


Xie: Young people’s wages can’t keep up with property prices and it’s hard to encourage progress

Xie Weiquan pointed out that when he asked the then Chief Secretary for Administration Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor about 8 or 9 years ago, he learned that the government's population policy was quite passive.

However, he believes that population policy is of great importance, and many things need to be coordinated, which will also affect the distribution of social resources, education, employment, welfare, etc., otherwise there will be many problems.

Li Jiachao responded yesterday that the government will continue to attract foreign enterprises to enter, but Xie Weiquan believes that attracting enterprises alone is not enough, because enterprises come to Hong Kong to see if there are enough talents, and Hong Kong needs some supporting policies for various professional grades, such as universities. The amount of specific disciplines must be adjusted according to the future demand for talents.

He said frankly that even if young people work hard at present, the increase in wages cannot keep up with property prices.

Lin Lin agrees with the Deputy Secretary for coordinating municipal administration: it should become a constant improvement work

In addition, Li Jiachao said yesterday that four working groups will be established, led by department-level officials, to deal with issues such as intergenerational poverty, regional issues, land and housing.

Among them, the government will set up a "District Matters Coordination Working Group" to deal with issues such as hygiene blackspots, street obstruction blackspots, environment and market appearance.

DAB Legislative Council member Lin Lin also pointed out on the same program that many districts are currently chaotic, such as rodent infestation, shops blocking streets, etc., which may involve more than ten government departments. Therefore, she is in favor of setting up a group to straighten out the process and clarify the main responsibilities. .

She pointed out that the government had similar measures in the past, but the focus was on law enforcement. Therefore, she agreed to solve the problem from the root cause. She suggested that the government set "performance indicators" for the plan, but the reminder should not be superficial and should become a constant improvement work.
