The government launched a series of activities called “Hong Kong at Night” last week to encourage citizens to go out and spend money at night, while also hoping to attract tourists to Hong Kong. However, the Shenzhen Municipal Government has also introduced measures to facilitate Hong Kong people’s consumption in recent days to encourage Hong Kong and Macao residents to go north for consumption. The State Administration of Customs has also announced to simplify the content of health declarations, adding more incentives for Hong Kong people to go north. In response, Chief Executive Lee Ka-chiu said that it is normal for Hong Kong people to like to travel abroad after the epidemic, and this phenomenon must be viewed rationally and pragmatically. He also pointed out that tourists from home and abroad still find Hong Kong attractive and should further strengthen development and create characteristics.

He is confident that the industry can find a solution.
