Tsang Chun-wah offers a plan to help companies keep people in Hong Kong's youth: work is not good and boring!

The new "Policy Address" was released last week, which includes a number of policies to support the development of youth. At the same time, the government also strongly supports Hong Kong youth to develop in the Greater Bay Area.

However, the former Financial Secretary, John Tsang, wrote an article on social media today (23rd), bluntly said: "I don't say that Hong Kong is part of the Greater Bay Area, in fact, Hong Kong is already a very important leading place in the Greater Bay Area. .” Calls on the authorities to understand the true thoughts of young people, and recommends that companies adjust the nature of work to suit the characteristics of “digital natives” young people.

Tsang Chun-wah said at the beginning of the article, "Youth is the future of Hong Kong, where is the future of Hong Kong's youth?" He said that he had attended two events of foreign chambers of commerce in the past two months and found that the values ​​of the new generation have been very different: "The 21st century Young people, many of them are "digital natives". They have been able to play mobile phones and video games almost from birth, and have strong scientific and technological capabilities. They are in this generation and may not want to have stable jobs in the world. Many Everyone wants to be a slasher with multiple jobs.” He pointed out that the development of technology has become unstoppable, and he believes that companies need to think about how to adjust their strategies to create more opportunities and motivation for the younger generation, while adjusting the nature of their work, “It’s not easy anymore. So boring."

Young people's life goals are more concerned with social issues than buying a property

In addition, he also mentioned that "getting on the bus" is no longer the primary goal of young people: "According to my experience, I don't think that buying bricks is their top priority in life, or because the property price is so high that it is far too high. It’s out of reach.” Taking big cities around the world, such as London and New York as examples, he pointed out that most of the local people also choose to rent a property, and asked, “Do you have to buy it?” He continued: “In this generation, they are all at the same time. So concerned about other social issues, like sustainable development, affirmative action or disability policy.”

Finally, John Tsang listed the data on the loss of young people in Hong Kong in the past three years: “The young population in Hong Kong has continued to decline in the past three years. That's 67,000 less, but 155,000 more people over the age of 60." He said that the population under 30 accounts for less than one-third of Hong Kong's total population, which "is definitely a big warning sign."
