[07:00] Hong Kong and the mainland finally cleared the customs this Sunday (8th). All primary schools and kindergartens in Hong Kong will resume full-time face-to-face classes on February 15th. However, the inconvenience faced by cross-border students has not yet been resolved.
The eldest son of Mr. Mei, a citizen of Shenzhen, is 10 years old and was born in Hong Kong. He is currently studying in the fourth grade of a primary school in Fanling.
Since the customs was closed in early 2020, Mr. Mei’s son has been taking online classes at his home in Shenzhen. Not only has his eyes become myopic, but he also doesn’t know how to get along with his peers due to the lack of group life.
He hopes that his son can return to Hong Kong to continue his education, and hopes that the government can simplify the customs clearance procedures, replace nucleic acid tests with rapid test results, or exempt cross-border students who have been diagnosed recently from the test requirements to facilitate cross-border students.
