It is cheap and livable. In comparison, the local living environment and space are very good, so the quality of living can be improved. As long as they are willing to go to the mainland, they can be arranged to go there and rented to them at the price of public housing, managed by the government. .” He believes that this will allow Hong Kong to free up more public housing for those on the waiting list, killing two birds with one stone.
