John Lee: The goal is to publish Hong Kong's first five-year plan within the third quarter.

On the 9th, John Lee Ka-chiu, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, stated that the Hong Kong SAR government is working tirelessly to organize and analyze feedback, with the goal of publishing Hong Kong's first five-year plan in the third quarter of this year. John Lee Ka-chiu noted that the Hong Kong SAR government has been committed to enriching the property ladder, and with the development of the Northern Metropolis, it will help provide more space and improve the living environment. The number of applicants waiting for public housing has decreased from a peak of 150,000 to about 100,000, a drop of one-third, reflecting the effectiveness of the Hong Kong SAR government's substantial construction of public and home ownership housing which has facilitated unit turnover. After the district consultative meeting, John Lee Ka-chiu met with the media and expressed confidence that citizens are very concerned about when the Huanggang Port can officially begin operations for public use. John Lee Ka-chiu's position is clear: the sooner, the better. Of course, to publicly allow citizens to use it, smooth, safe, and orderly operation must be ensured to provide a good experience for everyone. The Hong Kong SAR government will conduct extensive testing.
