Hong Kong and Macao Sudden Search
With the strong support of the Central Government of Hong Kong, with the strong support of the Central Government, since taking office, it has continuously touched the "boss difficult" problem of society, and proposed a series of targeted measures, which has been widely recognized by public opinion.However, recently, officials have rushed to launch certain policies without the problems of details, and have also exposed some problems in the government in terms of governance.
Here is a "minimalist public housing".Houses after 1997 became the top priority of Hong Kong society.The Chief Executive Li Jiachao put forward a simple public housing plan in the governance report last October, which is intended to quickly build a minimalist public housing unit with a standard minimalist design to assist grass -roots citizens from moving away from the harsh environment as soon as possible.
For grass -roots families, this plan is like rain in time, and of course it is very happy and supportive.But on the other side, the expensive cost of minimalist public housing has also caused great controversy in society.Simple public housing is temporary nature, and it can cost HK $ 26 billion (S $ 4.4 billion).If calculated by each unit, the monthly cost comparison of the small two -bedroom unit in the old housing estate in the area is inevitable that the public funds are seriously waste.
When the issue has not yet been explained, the Hong Kong Government has finalized eight sites and built a simple public housing. One of them is located in the Kai Tak World Transport Road, which has set off another storm.It turned out that the Hong Kong government originally used this land as the core business district.Residents in the district have criticized the officials who have not counted people in the project beforehand, and do not respect public opinion.They also questioned that if the official built a simple public housing here, it would weaken the concept of developing into the second core business district of Hong Kong, so they would oppose it.
However, the Hong Kong Legislative Council is already fully dominated by the establishment.Although around Kai Tak's development of minimalist public housing projects, there are many opposition voices in the society. The Legislative Council ’s labor team still passed the first round of funds of HK $ 14.9 billion in minimalist public housing last week.It is generally believed that the probability of minimalist public housing will advance as scheduled.
After many days, the disputes over the large and small of the simple public housing plan have gradually subsided recently.However, the incident also revealed that there are many challenges in the governance of the Hong Kong government.
The political parties in Hong Kong can be roughly divided into two major camps: the establishment of the system and the democratic faction.Democratic factions have long relied on democratic, freedom, human rights and other political concepts to call on the public to question those who have power.The Hong Kong -made camp has moved people's hearts due to lack of a complete set of ideology and values. It has often been in a beating situation over the past 20 years.
After the anti -revision of 2019, Beijing officials first formulated the Hong Kong National Security Law, and then revised the Hong Kong election system, prompting the political situation in Hong Kong to change tremendous changes.As Hong Kong has gradually moved from "from chaos to governance" in the past two years, and then to "from governance and prosperity", the main contradictions of society have been transformed through previous ideological struggles to internal contradictions, that is, conflicts of different classes.
Taking this minimalist public housing storm as an example, Hong Kong's land and houses have been inadequate for a long time, and a large number of citizens live in small mortuary.Grassroots people strongly support the official construction of simple public housing.However, more than 10,000 public housing households enter the middle -class residential area -Kai Tak District will affect local property prices and public spaces, which will naturally cause strong dissatisfaction in the middle class in the district.
The middle class families in Kai Tak District are worried that they will be destroyed by the high -quality living environment that have been struggling for many years to accumulate for many years.What annoyed them most was that some grass -roots groups stood at the moral high ground by moving, requiring the middle class to concessions, destroying the fairness and free market spirit that Hong Kong society had always respected.
Earlier days, some residents in many housing estates in Kai Tak District launched a street station signature activity to oppose the construction of simple public housing in Kai Tak World Transport Road. So far, tens of thousands of signatures have been collected.Some resident representatives claim that they are in contact with lawyers to study judicial review.The development of the incident has pushed the grassroots and middle -class to the opposite side.
In the incident, the political figures of the formulation were unfortunately sandwiched in the middle.For example, Yang Yongjie, a member of the Legislative Council of the district, originally proposed to hold the assembly parade against the Kai Tak selection. After meeting with officials, he changed his mouth to show that he had no doubts and canceled the parade.
From a macro perspective, this minimalist public housing controversy is obviously not an isolated incident.With the disappearance of the Pan -people's forces, similar people's livelihood problems, and the contradictions of different strata or industries derived from the derived of the people's livelihood issues, I am afraid that they will continue to repeat itself in the future.
For example, after the recent customs clearance of Hong Kong and the mainland, the exchanges between the two places have increased and are welcomed by the Hong Kong business community.However, as sporadic parallel customers began to appear in some parts of Hong Kong, some Hong Kong people have also begun to exclude the emotions of rejecting mainland travelers.How to balance the rights and interests of two different interest groups will test the Hong Kong government's work.
In fact, Hong Kong's economic development in the past three years is not good, but Hong Kong people have not been satisfied with the Hong Kong Government.However, after this year's epidemic passed, the expectations of the Hong Kong government's level of governance in all sectors of society rose.This means that the government of Li Jiachao must make better political achievements than last year, otherwise the people's hope will soon fall sharply.
