Early
Hong Kong and Macao Sudden Search
After Hong Kong and mainland China resumed the full customs clearance in early February, the Hong Kong Government immediately launched a large -scale publicity event to send a huge amount of money to the global passengers to send 500,000 tickets for free.port.However, the local tourism industry's undertaking power is seriously insufficient, and a lot of jokes have been made.
A recently -hyped event is a rare incident. It is a mainland company listed in Hong Kong to reward employees and give back to investors. Earlier, 3,000 people went to Hong Kong to participate in the sharing session.The organizer originally hoped to greet the group members to visit the scene. However, due to the insufficient number of tour guides and tourist buses in Hong Kong, they finally had to cancel the sightseeing itinerary and switched to now.
When I saw this news that day, I was chatting with a friend in the tourism industry.Friends lamented that if such a large -scale travel group, if you stay in Hong Kong for three days, spending 10,000 yuan (S $ 1718) for one person can bring at least Hong Kong dollars in tourism income. Unfortunately, Hong Kong missed in vain in vain.This opportunity.
The words did not have a good voice, and after a few days, I also realized that I did not have enough tourism in Hong Kong.
A friend of a large -scale technology company in China came to Hong Kong for a business trip for more than ten days, and met with four friends in business affairs for dinner.My friend came to Hong Kong this time in a hurry and was not prepared, so I asked me to go to the Causeway Bay Times Plaza near the restaurant to buy an electronic bracelet produced by his company.
Times Square is a well -known shopping area in Hong Kong. In addition to locals, there are many passengers in addition to locals. It should be easy to buy the famous electronic bracelet produced by this large company.Unexpectedly, the two of us strolled in a large circle in the mall, and we couldn't see this electronic bracelet.Later, I finally saw it in an electrical shop, but after asking, there were only three copies in the whole shop.My friend didn't want to offend people, so he had to give up the idea of buying to make a letter.
I and my friends and I did not meet in the three -year epidemic. I met each other the next afternoon and went to the hotel where he stayed in the hotel to eat afternoon tea.My friend bought a red wine and was ready to drink together.
But everyone found four or five restaurants around the hotel. Each restaurant did not make an appointment, because no one did not do the business in the afternoon tea period.We can only change to a tea restaurant on the street to dine, and the red wine is naturally not used. Let friends bring back to the hotel.
One after another unpleasant experience, and then thought that the storm of "some tourists without a tour guide" was discovered that after the full customs clearance of Hong Kong and the mainland, all walks of life "moved", but the society's preparation for recurrence of restorationIt is really insufficient, so that people are highly nervous and fail to seize the business opportunities of the post -recurrence.
Of course, there is no reason behind the Hong Kong tourism industry's reception and jokes.The three -year epidemic seriously crack down on the Hong Kong economy. Divine students from all walks of life have been hit, and many companies have to streamline their hands.Last year, a large number of employees in Hong Kong's fifth wave of epidemic outbreaks, economic downturn, and a large number of practitioners in tourism, catering, retail, hotel and other industries were forced to switch to career.
With Hong Kong out of the epidemic, Lu and Hong Kong have fully cleared the customs, business in various industries has begun to improve, and the demand for people in tourism and related industries has suddenly increased, and they have "grabbed people".However, the labor market was unable to adapt to adjustments for a while, so that some industries faced the shortage of manpower, and the salary increase was not invited, which would affect the comprehensive recovery of Hong Kong's economy.
On the other hand, after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law the previous year, although the Hong Kong Government has not admitted to the "immigration tide", it is an indisputable fact that a large number of people have lost in the past two years.According to official statistics, more than 100,000 Hong Kong people have moved to overseas. Many of them are professionals, which leads to people in some industries such as the medical care community and the information technology industry.
There are many Hong Kong people immigrants on the side of the compartment; on the other side, the market demand for the market has increased significantly. In the short term, the Hong Kong labor market has also become an inevitable phenomenon.Therefore, the latest unemployment rate announced by the Hong Kong government has fallen to 3.4%, and returned to the early stage of the epidemic in January 2020, close to employment of the whole people.In the past month, the Hong Kong tourism industry is difficult to find talents, but it is just the tip of the iceberg, and other industries have also had difficulty finding people.
What is worrying is that the biggest test of this problem seems to have not yet arrived.The number of tourists from mainland China has recently risen. It is estimated that more passengers will visit Hong Kong during the long holidays of the Labor Day on May 1, which means that the problem of lack of hands in Hong Kong will be even more serious.
At the same time, the surrounding areas, such as Macau and Taiwan, have also announced that they have returned to normal customs clearance.If Hong Kong does not solve the problem of manpower, it will continue to affect the quality of service.At that time, many tourists may rather go to other regions without traveling to Hong Kong, causing Hong Kong to miss the opportunity again.
All sectors of society in Hong Kong have demanded that the Hong Kong government has assisted the tourism industry to improve the working environment of the employee, increase the causes, and enrich the supply of labor markets.There are also employer groups calling on the official to enter foreign workers as soon as possible to alleviate people's wasteland.In any case, the Hong Kong Government is time to consider how to solve the manual shortage, otherwise the so -called "economy and development" goal will only be reduced to the air tower.
