Are there any immigrants to Hong Kong now?

When Hong Kong shortened its entry quarantine,

On the morning of August 9th 10: 30, Lee Ka Chiu John, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) presided over the press conference of "Emergency Response Guidance and Coordination Group", at which the next entry quarantine arrangement of the Hong Kong Government was officially announced.

Since this Friday, August 12, the number of days of quarantine for overseas and China Taiwan Province entry personnel has been shortened to "3+4", that is, 3 days of designated quarantine hotels and 4 days of home health monitoring.

Under the new system, the day on which passengers arrive in Hong Kong is defined as "the 0 th day", that is, the days of hotel isolation are not included, but the next three days. If the nucleic acid result is negative in the morning of the third day, the hotel isolation can be completed at noon, and then go home to continue home monitoring for four days.

You can go out, enter the supermarket, etc. At home, but you can't take off your mask, eat in restaurants or enter designated places such as schools. In addition, rapid detection should be carried out every day until 10 arrives in Hong Kong.

The red and yellow codes are officially launched.

At the same time as the "3+4" segregation policy, there is also a "red and yellow code".

Li stressed that the red and yellow codes are only applicable to overseas people who enter Hong Kong from the airport and people in Taiwan Province Province of China.

Give everyone a yellow code when entering the country until the "3+4" quarantine is over; If diagnosed during the quarantine period, it will be upgraded to red team.

People who get the yellow code are restricted from moving, but if the quick test results are negative every day, they can take public transport when they enter the health monitoring stage.

After the isolation is completed, the red and yellow codes will automatically change to blue codes, and different color codes will be displayed on the safety trip. You just need to download the latest version of the application.

The Hong Kong government said that this is reasonable, and the implementation of 3+4 and red and yellow codes is under the controllable risk balance.

In the past, in the process of "foreign defense import", it was found that 4% of the entry personnel were diagnosed as virus carriers, but half of the cases were found by nucleic acid testing at the Hong Kong airport, and 80% of the cases were found by nucleic acid testing at the designated quarantine hotel the next day.

That is to say, out of every 65,438+0,000 immigrants from overseas or Chinese mainland and Taiwan Province provinces, only 8 people are infected with COVID-19, showing a positive rate of less than 65,438+0%.

Is this good news for customs clearance in the Mainland?

Let's take a look. This measure will not affect mainland freshmen coming to Hong Kong. At present, the regulation is still "7+7" of "complete vaccination".

But what can I say? This may be good news. There was a heated discussion in the large group, and most people felt that they saw hope.

I dare not say that "the whole customs clearance is fast", but it is not impossible to have a shorter isolation time or even a one-way inspection-free customs clearance in a short time.

Lee Ka Chiu John said at the press conference that there is no contradiction between overseas customs clearance and mainland customs clearance, and both sides will be promoted.

I understand that there are risk requirements for controlling the epidemic in the Mainland. At the same time, I hope to show the actual situation of Hong Kong to the relevant mainland authorities and reduce the inconvenience of customs clearance as soon as possible.

We don't intend to disclose the details of the talks between the two places until the two sides reach an understanding.

It's been closed for over 900 days. Seeing this news, Xiaomei cheered up again and looked forward to a more relaxed new policy of mainland isolation in Hong Kong!

In the past ten years, more and more rich people have moved to Hong Kong.

So, why do the richer people want Hong Kong identity more? What are the benefits of Hong Kong identity?

We analyze it item by item from the following aspects.

1) business environment

First of all, Hong Kong has a low tax rate, a simple tax system, no double taxation and no inheritance tax.

For enterprises, not only the tax rate is low (the progressive tax rate in the Mainland is as high as 45%, and the fixed tax rate in Hong Kong is as high as 15%), but also the income outside Hong Kong does not need to be taxed.

Secondly, Hong Kong has the largest offshore RMB market, with free transfer of assets and convenient capital flow. The high-end business environment provides more international investment opportunities for the rich.

Furthermore, in terms of asset preservation, Hong Kong's high-net-worth asset management system is very perfect, and the industrial chain providing services is mature. There is a sound legal system to protect private property.

Where to live is second only to the rich. But where their assets are placed, whether they are safe and whether they are guaranteed to increase in value is particularly important. All things considered, Hong Kong is the best choice.

2) Education

Compared with the mainland, education in Hong Kong has almost absolute advantages.

The first is the quality of international education. Hong Kong has provided a bilingual education environment since the compulsory education stage. Almost every child who grew up in Hong Kong can adapt well to the English language environment.

This has laid a good foundation for cultivating children with an international vision.

Secondly, the competition in the mainland college entrance examination is fierce, but it is much easier for children with Hong Kong status to take the Hong Kong DSE exam (Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education, which can be understood as the Hong Kong college entrance examination) than to apply directly in the mainland.

Besides, there are eight public universities in Hong Kong, but five of the top universities in the world 100.

Mainland students who want to go to famous universities in Hong Kong may not be able to squeeze in by sharpening their heads. But with a Hong Kong hukou, even middle-level students have the opportunity to enter the top 200 QS universities in the world.

From this point of view, Hong Kong children have incomparable advantages over mainland students in terms of education they can receive during their study career and comprehensive ability to stand on the society after graduation.

3) Social welfare

In terms of medical treatment, Hong Kong permanent residents can enjoy Hong Kong's advanced medical technology, and only need to pay 50- 100 for outpatient treatment and 100 for hospitalization (no matter what disease) every day, which includes all the expenses.

Compared with the medical environment in the Mainland where "you may lose everything if you have a serious illness", Hong Kong's medical system can be said to have double insurance for the health and property of Hong Kong people.

In terms of social security, with Hong Kong status, you can enjoy unemployment benefits, pensions, living allowances for the elderly and other benefits. According to the regulations, people over 65 can apply for old age allowance in Hong Kong, and people over 70 can also apply for old age allowance. Together, they can receive up to HK$ 5,000 a month.

4) Seamless integration with the international community

There are 233 countries and regions in the world, and Hong Kong passports can be exempted from 170 countries and regions, which can be said to greatly facilitate the travel of the rich.

In addition, if you are employed locally in Hong Kong, you can get in touch with different internationally renowned enterprises. Whether in business, education, career promotion, etc., Hong Kong identity can help you integrate seamlessly into the international community.
