Hong Kong's entry quarantine measures are relaxed to "0+3", and various sectors expect the government to hand over the "0+0" timetable so that social and economic activities can be fully resumed.

Convenor of the Executive Council and Chairman of the New Democracy Party, Ye Liu Shuyi, in an exclusive interview with the radio, pointed out that if the epidemic continues to ease, it is expected that there will be an opportunity to further relax to "0+0" in October.

As for local social distancing measures, she believes that the authorities can give priority to easing restaurant business restrictions, but the "mask order" can be lifted later, as the impact on the economy is not large.


There has been a wave of immigration in Hong Kong in recent years. Ye Liu said that "immigration is not surprising." She believes that there will be a sufficient supply of talents after customs clearance, but she reminds the government that it is necessary to deploy an aggressive policy to attract talents from all over the world.


Ye Liu Shuyi said that there are still about 2,000 new crown patients in hospital, and four general outpatient clinics have just resumed normal operation. It depends on the impact of the local epidemic situation, the balance of the economy and the medical system, etc., before further relaxation of epidemic prevention measures.

She personally predicts that if the numbers of confirmed diagnoses and hospitalizations continue to decline, there is hope that it will become "0+0" within October.

Recently, there have been requests from the catering industry to relax local social distancing measures in order to cooperate with the relaxation of entry quarantine. Ye Liu reiterated that it depends on the data, and believes that the authorities can first consider relaxing the restrictions on restaurant business, including increasing the maximum number of people per table and allowing live performances.

However, the "mask order" can be lifted later, because wearing a mask has a protective effect and does not affect the economy.

The Chamber of Commerce’s customs clearance appeal reflects the intention to return: life in Sin Chew is dull!

Ye Liu admitted that Hong Kong's competitiveness has been affected by the entry and exit restrictions, but Hong Kong has the conditions to catch up and even surpass its previous performance: "Our city is attractive, except that it is backed by the huge mainland market; All are attractive, and some people think Singapore is boring.” She stressed that only a very small number of multinational companies did not return to Hong Kong after relocating, pointing out that many chambers of commerce demanded Hong Kong to clear customs as soon as possible, which means that they have insight into the future business opportunities in Hong Kong and intend to return for development : "It is true that Hong Kong has a lot of business to do, integrating with the Greater Bay Area, the northern metropolis, Lantau tomorrow, and technology innovation industries."

Immigrants from Hong Kong have always had the opportunity to not return if the female has a chance

In recent years, there has been a wave of large-scale immigration in Hong Kong. Ye Liu believes that immigration is a common occurrence, "not surprising", and there may be many reasons involved, including children's education, the stressful pace of life, or a preference for different social environments, emphasizing that Hong Kong people freedom of movement is guaranteed by the Basic Law.

Ye Liu especially mentioned the number of people coming to Hong Kong with one-way permits. "In the past, there were 150 people a day, 54,000 people a year, and 40 to 50 people returned to their families every day. The population replenishment is much less." As for whether immigrants from Hong Kong will return, Ye Liu believes that if they have already sold the property, it will be more difficult, because of factors such as children's education or personal retirement, there is also a chance that they will not come back.

As for how to supply the labor force and even attract talents from all over the world to develop in Hong Kong, she believes that the situation will improve after Hong Kong "switches on and off" one after another.

She suggested that the government can refer to Singapore's talent policy and use "one-stop" services to handle visas and children's education for professionals.
