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.
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 people who "everything counts", including senior executives of multinational companies, etc., the isolation policy has always been a major consideration. When people choose to go to a place, they will compare these factors. Whether it is time or money, it is an important cost.”
He predicted that after the implementation of the new quarantine policy, the number of visitors to Hong Kong will increase significantly. Arrangement and tracking management must be properly coordinated.
