Executive Summary
Female participation in the labour force
There was a clear consensus that it is possible to increase female participation in the
labour force, with many constructive suggestions about how to achieve this, including
better child care services, more family-friendly workplaces, more part-time jobs and
better retraining. These would reduce the instance of women being forced to choose
between having children and working. More specifically child care services could be
improved through better child care provision in the community, such as through
increased government support for child care in the community, expansion of the
Neighbourhood Support Child Care Project and provision of after-school care. That
would address the frequently expressed concerns about the difficulty in finding
affordable and reliable child care services in the community, especially given the
current difficulties in retaining good domestic helpers. For a more family friendly
workplace, common suggestions included flexible working hours, allowing parents to
take leave when their children are sick, rainstorm or typhoon warnings or school
holidays and increased support for working from home.
Retirement age
There was strong support expressed for increasing the normal retirement age in
general, for allowing employees to choose their retirement age and for government
departments providing job opportunities to the elderly first and for encouraging
private employers to hire old people possibly through tax benefits or subsidies.
Although there was general support for increasing the normal retirement age, there
was also widespread concern (especially through signature campaigns) about the
adverse affect on younger workers, particularly for civil servants, for whom there was
not a clear consensus in favour of increased normal retirement age. In addition,
there was support expressed for allowing physically fit employees to continue to
work.
New arrivals
For new arrivals, there was substantial feedback (especially through signature
campaigns) about the One-Way Permit Scheme, about fake marriages and specifically
about the burden on Hong Kong. Many of the comments about the One-Way Permit
Scheme (dominated by signature campaigns) were about Hong Kong taking over the
authority for issuing permits, imposing screening criteria, reducing the quota, and
retaining household registration in the Mainland so that they could return to the
Mainland if they cannot adapt. There were also suggestions of training to help
2
integration. In some cases there were suggestions about stopping family reunion for
future marriages. There was also concern expressed about the seven-year residence
requirement for entitlement to selected government welfare and services.
People with disability
There was no strong theme in the comments about disability, but the most popular
response was about encouraging employers to hire people with disability.
Ethnic minorities
The key suggestions for ethnic minorities in the workforce were about employment
including training, Chinese language training support and integration into the
community.
Manpower quality and education
There were many comments about the need to improve provision of vocational
education including the promotion of career development for less attractive jobs,
about ensuring that post-secondary education matches labour market/social needs,
about improving university education, additional support for continuing education and
the Qualifications Framework, as well as about sub-degree courses.
Admission of talents
The major issues raised about admission of talents were the barriers to talents, such as
limited nursery/kindergarten/school places, the need for government to be more
proactive and to provide incentives to encourage non-local students to stay and work
and the need for prioritizing specific industries in admitting talent.
Hong Kong emigrants and their children as returnees
There were no strong themes on Hong Kong emigrants and their children, but the
most common themes were barriers and the need to reach out.
Importation of low-skilled workers
There was a lot of feedback on importation of low-skilled labour, particularly through
signature campaigns that emphasize the need to protect existing local low-skilled
workers and wanting stringent requirements to approve the working visas. There is no
consensus about the need for importing these workers, with both positive and negative
views widely expressed. There were suggestions of a focus on the manpower shortage
in less attractive industries, e.g. construction or care service and similarly about
3
prioritizing industries with need. Overall there was no consensus about the
importation of low-skilled workers.
Other comments on importation of labour and immigration schemes
Of the other comments on importation of labour and immigration schemes without
specific reference to the qualifications or skill-levels (i.e. not relating to low-skilled
workers or talents), many were about protecting local labour by employing them first
or raising wages. Again, in the general context there were split views about whether
labour importation is necessary.
Other manpower issues
There were also many comments about other manpower issues, including encouraging
those on welfare and CSSA recipients who are capable of work to work,
implementing standard working hours, suggestions of developing new industries with
new job opportunities and encouraging recognition of overseas qualifications.
Support for marriage and family
There were many comments encouraging enhanced support for family, covering
family financial support, such as tax benefits and child subsidies and other forms of
support such as subsidized housing for families.
Fertility and pregnancy support
There were many comments encouraging enhanced support for fertility and pregnancy,
including financial support for pregnancy, longer maternity leave and provision of
paternity leave.
Barriers for marriage and family
There were many comments about the barriers for marriage and family, such as
housing costs including the impact on apartment size, access to education including
kindergartens and schools, too costly to raise children including education costs,
concerns about competition for milk powder, the education system and long working
hours.
Active ageing
There were many suggestions about active ageing, including the potential of elderly
volunteers and building Hong Kong into an age-friendly city.
4
Silver hair market
There were relatively few comments about the silver hair market, and the main theme
was the potential of this emerging market.
Retiring outside Hong Kong
There was no common theme for comments about retiring outside Hong Kong, except
that the destination is the Mainland.
Support for the elderly
There were many comments about the need for enhanced support for the elderly,
including financial support, residential care and medical care and the provision of
elderly housing.
Population growth
There were many concerns expressed about population growth (largely through
signature campaigns), about wanting population limits or not aiming to increase
population, given the current density.
Quality of life
There was concern that the consultation focused too much on manpower or the
economy and too little on quality of life.
Other population issues
There was concern expressed about Type II children and suggestions to abolish the
Individual Visit Scheme (largely expressed through web forums). There were also
concerns expressed about population projections, and for government to prioritize the
interests of Hong Kong people.
Other general issues
Other general issues that were raised in the PE process, but are outside the scope of
the consultation document, were housing, specifically more public housing, health
and education.
Public engagement process
The main area of concern about the PE process was the lack of sufficient information.
5
Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 Background
Between 24th October 2013 and 23rd February 2014, the Steering Committee on
Population Policy of The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative
Region (“The Government”) launched a public engagement (“PE”) process on
population policy, entitled “Thoughts for Hong Kong”.
The Social Sciences
Research Centre of The University of Hong Kong (“HKUSSRC”), an analysis and
reporting consultant with strong experience in research and public surveys, has been
appointed by The Government to collect, compile, analyse and report views of various
stakeholder groups, including those of the general public, expressed during the PE.
1.2 Team
The team is led by Professor John Bacon-Shone, with assistance from Ms. Linda Cho,
processing and analysis by Ms. Rachel Lui, Mr. Danny Chan, Mr. Dicky Yip, Ms. Lee
Hiu Ling and Mr. Thomas Lo, and logistics support from all the staff of HKUSSRC.
1.3 Analysis of Feedback
The PE started on 24th October 2013, with all feedback collected by 21st March 2014
included in the analysis, unless excluded for the reasons noted below.
All comments received during the PE were divided into eleven channels as described
below:
1. Public Forum (PF): 3 summaries from 3 Public Fora during the PE - public fora
are distinguished from other events because they were widely advertised as open
to all participants, whereas some of the other events were provided to dedicated
bodies: 202 comments were received from the participants of public fora
(Annex A);
2. Public consultative platforms (PCP): 2 summaries of 2 Legislative Council
Special House Committee meetings, 30 summaries from the 18 District Councils
6
or their subcommittees and 12 Advisory and Statutory Bodies during the PE: 947
comments were received through PCPs (Annex B);
3. Focus groups and events (FGE): the HKUSSRC was invited to attend 8 focus
groups and 3 events (Annex C1) for recordings and note taking and the views
from the stakeholders were summarized by the HKUSSRC. There were another 3
events (Annex C2) that HKUSSRC was not invited to attend but recordings or
meeting notes were provided by government for summarize the views of the
stakeholders. However, there were another 21 focus groups or events (Annex C3)
that the HKUSSRC was not invited to attend and no recordings or meeting notes
were provided for analysis, so they have not been included in the analysis.
Therefore, a total of 14 summaries from 8 focus group meetings and 6 events
including conferences, round tables, seminars and briefings other than PFs or
PCPs held during the PE were included in the qualitative analysis (Annex C): 671
comments were received from these events.
4. Written submission (WSL): a total of 126 written submissions, either by soft or
hard copies, with an organization or company letterhead with contact details were
received during the PE. All these written submissions were sent by letter, fax or
email to the Government with explicit corporate or association identification.
Among the submissions received, 27 were identified as duplicate or irrelevant
submissions and were excluded from analysis. Thus, only 99 written submissions
with an organization or company letterhead with contact details were included in
the qualitative analysis (Annex D): 1,448 comments were received in this manner;
7
5. Written submission (WSNL): a total of 700 written submissions, either by soft or
hard copies, without an organization or company letterhead were received during
the PE. All these written submissions were sent by letter, fax or email to the
Government without explicit corporate or association identification. Among the
submissions received, 301 were identified as duplicate or irrelevant submissions,
and 1 submission had an attachment file that could not be opened, so they were
excluded from analysis. Thus, only 398 written submissions without an
organization or company letterhead were included in the qualitative analysis
(Annex E): 3,181 comments were received in this manner;
6. Media (M): comments from 987 summaries from newspaper articles/columns and
broadcasting (Annex F) (excluding 3 which only reported official presentations)
during the PE: only 427 summaries were usable in the analysis as the other media
coverage reported factual information rather than public views, yielding 1,810
comments for analysis;
7. Signature Campaign/Petition (SCP): a total of 2 signature campaigns1 with 3,106
valid signatures sent by emails and total 5 petitions2 with 352 submissions (sent
by 126 webforms and 226 emails) were received during the PE (Annex G). The
11,307 SCP comments are all counted based on the number of verifiable
supporters as there is no clear distinction between signature campaigns, petition
letters and any other form of letter or email;
8. Opinion Survey (OS): 8 survey results3 received during the PE are included as
single submissions as verification of the participants was not possible (Annex H).
The 34 comments are coded on the basis of any view expressed by a simple
majority (more than 50%);
1
One from the Population Policy Group about the One-Way Permit Scheme and the other from the
Federation of Hong Kong & Kowloon Labour Unions about importation of low-skilled workers
2
One petition is about the One-Way Permit Scheme and the other four are primarily about the civil
service retirement age
3
The surveys were from Hong Kong Construction Association (self-conducted), The Hong Kong
Federation of Trade Unions Women Affairs Committee (self-conducted), The Association for Hong
Kong Catering Services Management Ltd (self-conducted), Community Business (self-conducted), The
Salvation Army Chai Wan Integrated Service for Young People (self-conducted), two from Department
of Child Education and Community Services, Institute of Vocation Education (Shatin), VTC
(conducted by two students), The Concern group for the rights of mild mental retardation (conducted
by The Hong Kong Institute of Education)
8
9. Telephone Hotline (TH): a total of 236 submissions were received via the
telephone hotline (3142 2041 and 1823) during the PE. Among the submissions
received, 63 were identified as duplicate or irrelevant submissions, and were
excluded from analysis. Thus, only 173 submissions were included in qualitative
analysis (Annex E3): 391 comments were received in this manner;
10. Webform (WF): a total of 1282 submissions were received via the online form
during the PE. Among the submissions received, 54 were identified as duplicate or
irrelevant submissions, and were excluded from analysis. Thus, only 1228
submissions were included in qualitative analysis (Annex E2): 3,844 comments
were received in this manner;
11. Internet and Social Media (IM): 220 topics in non-government web forums, 11
comments from Government web forums, 50 posts from the “Thoughts for Hong
Kong” Facebook page and 554 online news articles - they are included if they
were covered by WiseNews during the PE as this is a reputable indexing method
for Internet activity in Hong Kong (Annex I): 1,423 comments were usable in this
analysis.
The qualitative analysis used the nVivo software and is based on a framework in
Annex J that was developed by the HKUSSRC to reflect all the issues covered in the
consultation document, and then extended to cover all the other issues raised in the
qualitative materials collected during the consultation.
A table of counts for comments received on each issue is provided for each section in
this chapter, broken down by the eleven channels noted above. Comments submitted
by different people are counted each time, even if the comments were identical,
regardless of the channel of submission, on the grounds that this reflects the number
of people or organizations who wish to make that specific comment. As individual
identities were not cross-referenced across channels, comments submitted through
multiple channels are counted separately through each channel, unless they could be
matched because of identical content, in which case they were only included once
under a single channel. No distinction, other than for written submissions with and
without letterhead, is made between people and organizations, as it is often unclear
whether a comment represents a personal or institutional perspective. All counts are
9
comment-based, where a comment is defined as a specific idea that could be coded as
a distinct issue.
Discussion is provided for any issue with at least 50 comments provided, including a
quote from a typical comment submitted and also, where appropriate, the numbers of
comments that agree and disagree are highlighted, even if the number of comments is
less than 50. The discussion starts by listing issues with counts of at least 50 at the
highest level of analysis, then breaks down the analysis at the next level of analysis
until there are no issues with counts of at least 50. The quotes are provided at the
lowest level of analysis with a count of at least 50 to ensure that the quotes are as
specific as possible to the issue. For the counts of at least 50, whenever at least a
quarter of the comments about an issue came through a single channel, the count in
the table is highlighted in bold, while if at least half of the comments came through a
single channel, the count is also highlighted in red and the channel is mentioned in the
text.

Of the 1,727 comments about female labour force participation, 855 were about child
care services, 487 about family-friendly workplace, 80 about being forced to choose
between having children and working (“many women homemakers who wish to work
are tied up by household duties, in particular child care responsibilities”), 77 about
part-time jobs (“Government should encourage employers to offer more part-time
jobs for women”) and 72 about retraining (“suggested some retraining or reorientation
courses like computer technology to strengthen the competitiveness of women in the
labour market”).
Of the 855 comments about child care services, 760 were about better childcare
provision in the community, including 194 comments about the need for government
16
support for childcare in the community (“government should further support current
subsidised childcare services, increasing the number of subsidised places / expanding
the service, lowering the threshold to become eligible for applying allowances and
helping non-CSSA families with financial difficulties”) , 112 about the difficulty to
find child care in the community (“places in child care centers (including day
nurseries) are insufficient and the charge may not be affordable to some”), 90 about
the high cost of childcare services, including 69 about the provision of free or
affordable childcare services (“accessible and affordable child care services to
encourage female homemakers to rejoin the workforce”), 79 about improving or
expanding the Neighbourhood Support Child Care Project (“suggest strengthening the
services of the Neighbourhood Support Child Care Project”) and 58 about more
after-school child care services such as homework tutorial service (“they would like to
be employed if after-school child care services could be provided so that the children
could stay at school to do homework until the women got off work to pick them up”)
and 58 comments about domestic helpers (“the turnover rate of domestic helpers has
increased significantly over the years and families today are no longer able to rely on
the “staying power” of their domestic helper, resulting in more couples deciding not
to have more children or women leaving the work force”).
Of the 487 comments on family friendly workplace, 155 were about flexible working
hours (“family-friendly work modes are to be encouraged: part-time job opportunities,
home office and flexi working hours are to be promoted”), 61 about allowing parents
to take leave when their children are sick, rainstorm or typhoon warnings or school
holidays (“parental leave, such as that for taking care of sick kids, should also be
considered”) and 57 about working from home (“employers in Hong Kong should be
more open-minded and should try to accept the concept of working from home”)

A.1.2.25 Allow to contribute to
MPF after 65
Of the 1,639 comments about retirement age, 827 were about increasing the normal
retirement age, 232 were about the civil service retirement age, 83 about allowing
employees to choose their retirement age (“elderly should have the right to choose
their time for retirement”), 67 (more than half through the SCP channel) about
government departments providing job opportunities to the elderly first (“government
should take the lead to provide some temporary and contract-based jobs to the
elderly”) and 52 about encouraging employers to hire old people through tax benefits
or subsidies (“companies need encouragement or tax incentives for them to hire
retirees”).
Of the 827 comments about increasing the normal retirement age, 252 were about
supporting increasing the normal retirement age without specific reasons, 196 (more
than half through the SCP channel) were about the adverse effect on younger workers
(“it would obstruct the promotion of the younger generations.”), 96 about being still
productive (“many retirees are highly educated or have rich experience, are still
healthy and willing to work”), 90 about supporting an increase to 65 years old
(“suggested the retirement age should be extended from 60 to 65”) and 58 about
allowing physically fit employees to continue to work (“many retirees are still healthy
and willing to work, many of them are highly educated or have rich experience”).
Of the 232 comments about the civil service retirement age, 116 (mainly through
petitions) were negative (“disagree with the extension of retirement age for civil
servants”), 86 were positive (“Government should take the lead in extending the
service of civil servants beyond retirement age by incorporating more flexibility into
the system”) and 29 (mainly through a petition) were neutral (“those allowed to
postpone retirement must show satisfactory work performance and the ability to make
contributions”).

Of the 3,970 comments about new arrivals, 3,199 (more than half through channel
SCP) were about the One-Way Permit Scheme, 334 (more than half through channel
SCP) were about fake marriages (“questioned the mechanism of checking the false
marriage as it could not ensure the aim of the applicants was really family reunion”),
240 (more than half through channel WF) about the burden on Hong Kong
(“admitting the One-way Permits will be a real burden to Hong Kong's social welfare,
public education and public medical system”) and 55 were about reviewing the seven
year threshold for entitlements to selected government welfare and services
(“threshold of 7-year residence should be reviewed”)
Of the 3,199 comments about the One-Way Permit Scheme, 1,183 (more than half
through channel SCP) were about the authority for issuing permits being transferred
26
to Hong Kong (“the Hong Kong government should take back the authority over
approval of one-way permit”), 782 (more than half through channel SCP) about
imposing screening criteria (“means test should be introduced (either in the Mainland
or in Hong Kong) upon any applicants applying in the OWP Scheme”), 426 (more
than half through channel SCP) about decreasing the quota (“government could
consider reducing the daily 150 One-way permit, to tackle problems of fake marriage,
corruption and penetration of the Chinese Communist Party”), 294 (more than half
through channel SCP) about retaining household registration, so they could return to
the Mainland if they cannot adapt (“have their household registration record kept for
one year or two as a transitional period after their approval of their one-way permit. If
they could not get used to the life in Hong Kong, they could go back to Mainland”),
187 about training to help integration (“provide training programs for these potential
immigrants and enjoy the community services so that this would help them adapt
faster to the Hong Kong society while they got the ID card”) and 75 about stopping
family reunion for future marriages including 54 about reunion in the Mainland
instead of Hong Kong (“can still choose to get married with the Mainland Chinese but
they need to be clear that they cannot get reunion in Hong Kong”) and 54 (more than
half through channel WF) about abolishing the One-Way Permit Scheme (“One-way
Permit Scheme should be cancelled”).

Among the 1,044 comments about manpower quality and education, 388 were about
improving or providing vocational education (“vocational training and retraining must
be integral to any efforts to equip younger workers with the requisite capabilities that
are aligned with market demand”) including 57 about the promotion of career
development of less attractive jobs (“government should convey to young people and
their parents that these relatively lower-end jobs also offer prospects for promotion,
and show them the career pathways and qualifications framework for these types of
jobs”), 142 about post-secondary education matching labour market/social needs
(“employers can cooperate and work with post-secondary or tertiary education
institutes so as to matching the needs of local economy”), 90 about improving
university education (“given the deteriorating quality of university graduates,
university places should be increased together with improvement in the quality of
university education”), 70 about encouraging or subsidizing continuing education
more (“government may encourage people for continuing education by providing
37
funding to them as they may not be able to afford the fee of continuing education”),
65 about the Qualifications Framework (“believe that the Qualifications Framework
will help define clear standards of qualifications and benchmarks of skills, knowledge
and other relevant attributes required to perform different jobs at different levels”) and
52 about sub-degree courses (“ wondered if there was any program or training which
could help associate degree holders to work, especially for those whose subjects were
career-oriented”).

A.3.1.29 Trade unions or

information about shortage of labour
in order to prove that there is an
urgent need to admit talents
A.3.1.30 Income of admitted
talents would be transferred overseas,
which lead to capital leakage
A.3.1.31
Hong Kong should
adopt working holiday scheme which
allows talents to come
A.3.1.32 Admit talents other
than from Mainland
A.3.1.33
Lower the overall
cost through import of talents
Of the 712 comments about immigration of talents, 141 were about barriers to talents
(“until the basic environment for nurturing new industries is developed in Hong Kong,
there will be few job opportunities in the new-age businesses, and fewer people
interested in coming to Hong Kong”), including 52 comments about
nursery/kindergarten/school places (“because there are inadequate international
41
school places, some talents are not willing to work in Hong Kong SAR”), 85
comments about being more proactive (“encourage the government to promote Hong
Kong proactively in attracting talents to come to Hong Kong”), 76 about the talent
admission scheme points test (“suggested adopting flexibility to fine-tune the talent
admission schemes in the light of Hong Kong’s actual requirements”), 63 about
providing incentives to encourage non-local students to stay and work (“in order to
retain and attract the talented people to work in HK, the pre-requisite is the provision
of quality and yet affordable accommodation”), 57 comments about target industries
(“the talent admission score should depends on whether the talent suits HK
development and prioritized industries, age etc.”) and 52 about the negative impact on
existing educated workers (“bringing in talent from overseas makes it hard for local
talent to be successful”).
2.1.8 Hong Kong emigrants and their children as returnees
Table 2.1.8 shows the breakdown of the 82 comments about Hong Kong emigrants
and their children as returnees (“government should do more in these areas to reach
out to Hong Kong people and their families studying / living abroad or in the
Mainland and encourage them to return to Hong Kong to work and live”)

importation of low-skilled workers
A.3.3.17 Establish agency to
deal with the importation of
low-skilled labour
low-skilled workers increases living
cost such as property price
A.3.3.19
Target foreign
workers who tend to receive
information from informal network
such as their family members in
Philippines
A.3.3.20
Hostile attitude of
local people towards low-skilled
workers from Mainland China
Of the 9,206 (more than half through channel SCP) comments about the importation
of low-skilled workers, 5,939 (more than half through channel SCP) were about
protecting existing local low-skilled workers (“government should protect the local
workers in terms of wage level and working benefits when importing foreign
workers”), 2,817 (more than half through channel SCP) comments about imposing
stringent requirements to approve the working visas (“stringent requirements should
be imposed on working visas to avoid companies abusing the Talent Admission
Scheme, from skipping the recognition procedure of the Labour Advisory Board, and
importing many low-skilled workers that would jeopardize local labour”), 143 about
prioritizing industries ( “necessary to identify the concerned industry which is
currently facing a labour shortage”) including 118 about tackling the manpower
shortage in less attractive industries, e.g. construction or care (“importation of
workers is acceptable in unattractive and labor-intensive industries such as cleansing
work and construction”) and 111 about preference for immigration of low-skilled
workers – 42 supporting and 69 opposed.
.
Of the 5,939 (more than half through channel SCP) comments about protecting
existing local low-skilled workers, 3,002 (more than half through channel SCP) were
47
about avoiding jeopardizing existing low-skilled workers and 2,893 (more than half
through channel SCP) about improving the treatment of local labour instead of
importing foreign labour as a way to tackle manpower shortage.

Of the 413 comments about other immigration issues (i.e. not relating to low-skilled
workers or talents, 195 were about preference for importation of workers – of which
81 were in support and 114 opposed, 58 were about protecting local labour including
56 about using local labour first (“there was still a lot of room to increase the labour
participation rate of women, youth and ethnic minorities - except for very special jobs,
importing foreign labour should be the last option”) and 57 about the impact on local
labour (“importation of foreign labour causes demand for housing to increase and thus
property prices will increase”).

concerns
A.4.4.36.1 Children born
overseas of Hong Kong Permanent
Residents should be permanent
residents
Of the 1,231 comments about barriers for marriage and family, 263 were about
housing costs, including 59 about this limiting apartment size (“housing policy
discourages some Hong Kong SAR citizens to bear children because of high property
price”), 184 were about access to education, including 77 about access to
kindergartens or schools (“couples may need to be worried about a kindergarten place
even during pregnancy due to the insufficient capacity”), 134 were that it is too costly
to raise children (“many couples nowadays do not want to give birth because they
think they cannot afford the expenses and resources to raise a child”), 96 were about
education costs of which 58 were about free education or learning activities
(“implementation of 15-year free education was very important in terms of nurturing
citizens with quality”), 68 about competition for milk powder (“export controls on
infant powdered formula should be kept in place to let Hong Kong parents have
enough infant powdered formula for their infant children, which would
unquestionably help local parents to raise their children”), 62 about the education
system (“young couples in Hong Kong were not willing to have children because of
bad education policies like the Direct Subsidy Scheme and spoon-fed education”) and
59 about long working hours (“long working hours are common in Hong Kong, so
young couples are generally worried if they would have enough time to take care of
their children”).
2.3 Ageing
Within the 762 comments about ageing, there were 211 comments about active ageing,
62 comments about the silver hair market, 103 comments about retiring outside Hong
Kong and 386 comments about elderly services and care.

Of the 386 comments about elderly support, 296 were about elderly care and 58 were
about provision of elderly housing (“important questions were whether housing suit
senior citizens living alone and what incentive there could be to encourage younger
generations to live with their parents and grandparents”).
Of the 296 comments about elderly care, 92 were about financial support (“stressed
the need to develop universal retirement protection to reduce elderly poverty”), 81
were about residential care (“government should continuously increase Residential
Care Services and Day Care Centres”) and 68 were about medical care (“government
should plan the medical policy to cope with the aging of Hong Kong people in the
future”).

A.10.4 Need better infrastructure
to cope with population growth e.g
commercial building, hospital places
and transport
A.10.5 Dissuade non-local
graduates to stay in Hong Kong
Of the 978 (more than half through channel SCP) comments about population growth,
456 (more than half through channel SCP) were about introducing population limits
(“the proposition of no upper limit for population was absurd”) and 402 (more than
half through channel SCP) were about not aiming to increase population given the
current population density (“do not agree that Hong Kong needs population growth to
cope with a rapidly ageing population by adding people to the shrinking workforce to
maintain competitiveness, given that we do not have unlimited resources to cope with
the increasing population, both residents and visitors”) and 61 about stopping all
immigration (“Government should stop all new immigration to Hong Kong”).
2.5 Quality of life
Table 2.5 shows the breakdown of the 168 comments about quality of life, including
104 that the consultation focuses too much on manpower or the economy and too little
on quality of life (“the whole paper gives the impression that it’s more like a human
resource policy rather than a population policy, but we should be talking more about
the quality of life of people in Hong Kong”)6.

Of the 616 comments about other population issues, 156 were about Type II children,
including 59 (more than half through channel WF) wanting a review of their ID card
entitlement, 117 (more than half through the channel WF) about the individual visit
scheme, 66 about population projections (“unfortunately, the upper limit of population
of Hong Kong was not mentioned in the consultation material and the government
failed to relate housing demand with the population”), and 55 about the government
prioritizing the interests of Hong Kong people (“population policy should be based on
the interests on Hong Kong citizens”).
Of the 117 (more than half through channel WF) comments about the Individual Visit
Scheme, 80 (more than half through channel WF) were about limiting or abolishing
the scheme (“abolish the Individual Visit Scheme”).

health (“implement a voluntary Medical Insurance Scheme as soon as possible”) and
63 about education (“suggest to provide more education for the next generation about
social responsibilities, generosity, respect, earn from effort, which are important core
values, because Hong Kong people are becoming more and more materialistic which
diminishes our quality”) and 52 about welfare (“reduce all existing subsidies and the
amount of CSSA”).

Chapter 3: Conclusions
Female participation in the labour force
There was a clear consensus that it is possible to increase female participation in the
labour force, with many constructive suggestions about how to achieve this, including
better child care services, more family-friendly workplaces, more part-time jobs and
better retraining. These would reduce the instance of women being forced to choose
between having children and working. More specifically child care services could be
improved through better child care provision in the community, such as through
increased government support for child care in the community, expansion of the
Neighbourhood Support Child Care Project and provision of after-school care. That
would address the frequently expressed concerns about the difficulty in finding
affordable and reliable child care services in the community, especially given the
current difficulties in retaining good domestic helpers. For a more family friendly
workplace, common suggestions included flexible working hours, allowing parents to
take leave when their children are sick, rainstorm or typhoon warnings or school
holidays and increased support for working from home.
Retirement age
There was strong support expressed for increasing the normal retirement age in
general, for allowing employees to choose their retirement age and for government
departments providing job opportunities to the elderly first and for encouraging
private employers to hire old people possibly through tax benefits or subsidies.
Although there was general support for increasing the normal retirement age, there
was also widespread concern (especially through signature campaigns) about the
adverse affect on younger workers, particularly for civil servants, for whom there was
not a clear consensus in favour of increased normal retirement age. In addition,
there was support expressed for allowing physically fit employees to continue to
work.
New arrivals
For new arrivals, there was substantial feedback (especially through signature
campaigns) about the One-Way Permit Scheme, about fake marriages and specifically
about the burden on Hong Kong. Many of the comments about the One-Way Permit
Scheme (dominated by signature campaigns) were about Hong Kong taking over the
authority for issuing permits, imposing screening criteria, reducing the quota, and
retaining household registration in the Mainland so that they could return to the
Mainland if they cannot adapt. There were also suggestions of training to help
83
integration. In some cases there were suggestions about stopping family reunion for
future marriages. There was also concern expressed about the seven-year residence
requirement for entitlement to selected government welfare and services.
There was no strong theme in the comments about disability, but the most popular
response was about encouraging employers to hire people with disability.
Ethnic minorities
The key suggestions for ethnic minorities in the workforce were about employment
including training, Chinese language training support and integration into the
community.
Manpower quality and education
There were many comments about the need to improve provision of vocational
education including the promotion of career development for less attractive jobs,
about ensuring that post-secondary education matches labour market/social needs,
about improving university education, additional support for continuing education and
the Qualifications Framework, as well as about sub-degree courses.
The major issues raised about admission of talents were the barriers to talents, such as
limited nursery/kindergarten/school places, the need for government to be more
proactive and to provide incentives to encourage non-local students to stay and work
and the need for prioritizing specific industries in admitting talent.
Hong Kong emigrants and their children as returnees
There were no strong themes on Hong Kong emigrants and their children, but the
most common themes were barriers and the need to reach out.
Importation of low-skilled workers
There was a lot of feedback on importation of low-skilled labour, particularly through
signature campaigns that emphasize the need to protect existing local low-skilled
workers and wanting stringent requirements to approve the working visas. There is no
consensus about the need for importing these workers, with both positive and negative
views widely expressed. There were suggestions of a focus on the manpower shortage
in less attractive industries, e.g. construction or care service and similarly about
84
prioritizing industries with need. Overall there was no consensus about the
importation of low-skilled workers.
Other comments on importation of labour and immigration schemes
Of the other comments on importation of labour and immigration schemes without
specific reference to the qualifications or skill-levels (i.e. not relating to low-skilled
workers or talents), many were about protecting local labour by employing them first
or raising wages. Again, in the general context there were split views about whether
labour importation is necessary.
There were also many comments about other manpower issues, including encouraging
those on welfare and CSSA recipients who are capable of work to work,
implementing standard working hours, suggestions of developing new industries with
new job opportunities and encouraging recognition of overseas qualifications.
Support for marriage and family
There were many comments encouraging enhanced support for family, covering
family financial support, such as tax benefits and child subsidies and other forms of
support such as subsidized housing for families.
Fertility and pregnancy support
There were many comments encouraging enhanced support for fertility and pregnancy,
including financial support for pregnancy, longer maternity leave and provision of
paternity leave.
Barriers for marriage and family
There were many comments about the barriers for marriage and family, such as
housing costs including the impact on apartment size, access to education including
kindergartens and schools, too costly to raise children including education costs,
concerns about competition for milk powder, the education system and long working
hours.
Active ageing
There were many suggestions about active ageing, including the potential of elderly
volunteers and building Hong Kong into an age-friendly city.
85
Silver hair market
There were relatively few comments about the silver hair market, and the main theme
was the potential of this emerging market.
Retiring outside Hong Kong
There was no common theme for comments about retiring outside Hong Kong, except
that the destination is the Mainland.
There were many comments about the need for enhanced support for the elderly,
including financial support, residential care and medical care and the provision of
elderly housing.
Population growth
There were many concerns expressed about population growth (largely through
signature campaigns), about wanting population limits or not aiming to increase
population, given the current density.
Quality of life
There was concern that the consultation focused too much on manpower or the
economy and too little on quality of life.
There was concern expressed about Type II children and suggestions to abolish the
Individual Visit Scheme (largely expressed through web forums). There were also
concerns expressed about population projections, and for government to prioritize the
interests of Hong Kong people.
Other general issues
Other general issues that were raised in the PE process, but are outside the scope of
the consultation document, were housing, specifically more public housing, health
and education.
Public engagement process
The main area of concern about the PE process was the lack of sufficient information.
