The government announced that the number of hotel quarantine days for those arriving in Hong Kong from overseas or Taiwan will be changed to "3+4", that is, 3 days of hotel quarantine and 4 days of home medical monitoring. .

Lam Kin-fung, a member of the Executive Council and vice-chairman of the Pakatan Harapan, said that the plan is a very good start. It is "overjoyed" for the business sector and the public, and it is believed that it will help the recovery of the tourism industry.

Leung Hee, a member of the Legislative Council of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong, welcomed the new measures and affirmed that the authorities, based on scientific principles and data, introduced the red-yellow code system and shortened the hotel quarantine period. .

Lin Jianfeng advocates gradually reducing the number of quarantine days

Lin Jianfeng pointed out that the arrangement can greatly reduce the inconvenience of entry or return to Hong Kong. He believes that Hong Kong, as an international financial center, must compete with time. The hotel quarantine period is "shorter, the better." He suggested that the government adopt a "gradual retreat" approach. In this way, the number of quarantine days will be gradually reduced, and those with home conditions will be allowed to conduct home isolation, during which they can travel to and from their homes and workplaces through a "point-to-point" method.

He also pointed out that for some "every minute counts", including senior executives of multinational companies, the isolation policy has always been a major consideration.

He expects that the number of visitors to Hong Kong will increase significantly after the implementation of the new quarantine policy, and the government must properly cooperate in various supporting aspects, including quarantine hotels, transportation arrangements and tracking management.

Another member of the Pakatan Harapan, Leung Mei-fun, believes that the new plan will help maintain Hong Kong's role as an international hub and facilitate the arrival of experts in inter-group seminars.

She mentioned that she has organized some international events, including the "Belt and Road" international forum, etc. She believes that the "3+4" quarantine plan can reduce the cost of the organizers in terms of money and time compared to the 7-day hotel quarantine.

Leung Hee urges more manpower to handle immigration procedures

DAB Health Spokesperson and Legislative Council Member Leung Hee agrees with the "3+4" quarantine plan. He believes that the risk of community infection has been balanced against the normal operation and return of society to normal. It is hoped that after the implementation of the new measures, the government will continue to closely monitor arrivals If the number of confirmed cases is confirmed, the measures should be updated appropriately and timely to ensure the smooth operation of the relevant system. For example, if the transcoding fails on the 7th day, the authorities need to have a complaint system to assist the citizens concerned.

Liang Xi expects that as the relaxation measures are implemented, the number of arrivals in Hong Kong will increase accordingly. "Electronic Health Declaration", you can be issued a "green code" and use the "green channel" to enter the country after arriving in Po.

In this regard, the authorities need to deploy additional manpower to expedite the relevant processing work, so as to achieve the goal of completing the immigration procedures within 1.5 hours as promised by the government earlier.

Chow Ho-ting, chairman of the DAB Business and Professional Committee, also welcomed the "3+4" arrangement, believing that it will help promote business activities in Hong Kong, and will help the local economy and the business of SMEs.

He hoped that the government will further shorten the number of days of hotel quarantine and allow Hong Kong residents to switch to home quarantine if possible.
