Date of next meeting and items for discussion (LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(01) -- List of outstanding items for discussion LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(02) -- List of follow-up actions) Regular meeting on 8 June 2020 2. The Chairman said that the discussion on the item "Latest progress of the implementation of the Subsidy Scheme to Extend Fibre-based Networks to Villages in Remote Areas", originally scheduled for today's meeting, had been deferred to the next regular meeting scheduled for 8 June 2020, while the item "The governance and management of Radio Television Hong Kong" had been included for discussion at the meeting. Members noted that the next regular Panel meeting would be held on Monday, 8 June 2020 at 2:30 pm to discuss the following items: (a) Update on smart city development; (b) Launching of "iAM Smart" platform and other digital government service initiatives; and (c) Latest progress of the implementation of the Subsidy Scheme to Extend Fibre-based Networks to Villages in Remote Areas. Action - 4 - Promoting innovation and technology development in Hong Kong 3. The Chairman said that the Deputy Chairman had previously submitted a letter suggesting that the Panel should discuss, possibly in a joint meeting with the Panel on Commerce and Industry ("CI Panel"), Hong Kong's innovation and technology ("I&T") overall development strategy and consolidation of resources. The Chairman said that the Administration had now proposed to put an item on "Innovation and technology development and re-industrialization policy in Hong Kong" in the agenda of the meeting of the CI Panel on 16 June 2020, which addressed the concerns the Deputy Chairman raised. The Chairman said that the CI Panel Chairman was considering whether members of this Panel should be invited to join the discussion. Instead of holding a joint Panel meeting, members of this Panel could take part in the discussion of item at the meeting of CI Panel. Members had no objection to the proposed arrangement. Data centre development in Hong Kong 4. The Chairman informed members that the Administration had not yet provided an information paper for the Panel in response to Mrs Regina IP's earlier suggestion that an item be put on the agenda of a Panel meeting to discuss the data centre development in Hong Kong. The Chairman instructed the Clerk to follow it up with the Administration. (Post-meeting note: An information paper provided by the Administration was circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)644/19-20(01) on 18 May 2020.) Visit to Smart Government Innovation Lab and Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute 5. The Chairman said that in view of the recent coronavirus disease-2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic, the visit to Smart Government Innovation Lab ("Smart Lab") and Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute was subsequently rescheduled. In view of the tight meeting schedule before the end of the current term, the Chairman proposed and members agreed that the visit should be cancelled. 6. In response to Mr CHAN Chun-ying's query on whether a virtual tour, instead of an on-site visit, could be made, Secretary for Innovation and Technology ("S for IT") said that the Administration would facilitate members to visit the Smart Lab in person or online. While there might be insufficient time for the Administration to give a briefing with the aid of virtual reality technology at the meeting, the Administration would subsequently upload Action - 5 - virtual docent tour video onto the thematic website to facilitate viewing of the Smart Lab by members. (Post-meeting note: The Administration has prepared a virtual tour of the Smart Lab. Members may access the tour through the hyperlink https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=Zikn8xcX8jV. The information was issued to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)727 /19-20 on 5 June 2020.) III. Smart Government Innovation Lab (LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(03) -- Administration's paper on the Smart Government Innovation Lab LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(04) -- Paper on the Smart Government Innovation Lab prepared by the Legislative Council Secretariat (Background brief)) Briefing by the Administration 7. At the invitation of the Chairman, S for IT gave introductory remarks on the work progress of the Smart Lab. Deputy Government Chief Information Officer then gave a powerpoint presentation on the progress of Smart Lab in promoting the adoption of I&T products and solutions in public services. Details of the briefing were set out in the Administration's paper (LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(03)). (Post-meeting note: A soft copy of the powerpoint presentation (Chinese version only) was circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)601/19- 20(01) by email on 11 May 2020.) Discussion Smart Lab 8. Some members including Mr CHAN Chun-ying, Ms YUNG Hoi-yan Mrs Regina IP and Mr YIU Si-wing shared the view that 15 proof-of-concept projects, as set out in Annex 1 to the Administration's paper (LC Paper No. CB(1)593/19-20(03)), were less important to the public. While the efforts of the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer ("OGCIO") in establishing Smart Lab were commendable, Mr CHAN commented that the Administration Action - 6 - should step up efforts to provide more convenient public services, such as promoting the adoption of information technology ("IT") solutions in the Transport Department to facilitate the applications for renewal of vehicle licences in a more effective manner. Mr YIU and Mr CHAN Han-pan expressed similar views. Mr YIU asked whether the Administration would consider adopting the office automation system so that government staff could work from home by remotely accessing the relevant system to speed up the approval procedures of licence applications. 9. Mr CHAN Chun-ying noted that over 60 solutions and services proposed by the local industry and universities had been successfully matched by the E&M InnoPortal, while the Smart Lab had matched a total of 31 business needs with solutions. He sought information on whether the Administration had awarded any contract for the implementation of these IT solutions, and the number of start-ups had successfully bid for government projects. 10. S for IT said that the Administration had promoted active participation of industry players to assist departments in adopting various IT solutions to improve public services. He said that most of the 31 solutions and services that had been successfully matched, were provided by local start-ups. Government Chief Information Officer ("GCIO") said that, while most start-ups were awarded contracts, some projects were planned for trial to test if they could meet the business needs of departments and if they were technically feasible. The expenses of arranging proof-of-concept trial for solutions were shared by the Administration. For example, the Administration had spent $170,000 for arranging proof-of-concept trial of a project, entitled "Use light detection and ranging (LiDAR) to estimate the average journey time and speed of vehicles on specific road sections". The solution was put forward by a start-up in Hong Kong Science Park. 11. GCIO further said that the proof-of-concept trials would enable bureaux and departments ("B/Ds") to better understand how the solutions could effectively address their business needs and be implemented.

    Chapter V Unlimited Business Opportunities Chapter V Unlimited Business Opportunities Chapter V Unlimited Business Opportunities –71 My Belief “To maintain a city’s competitiveness is like sailing a boat against the current and it must forge ahead in order not to be driven back. Hence, Hong Kong must keep consolidating its existing strengths, exploring new advantages, expanding economic and trade ties with the world, and fostering closer exchange and co-operation with the Mainland.” “The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government is determined to boost the development of new and emerging industries in addition to our traditional industries, and considers that both innovation and technology and the creative industries have a competitive edge and much potential. They will not only promote a diversified economy, but also create more quality employment opportunities for our young people.” Hong Kong has been acclaimed as the world’s most open, freest and most competitive city by many international organisations. Leveraging our unique strengths under “One Country, Two Systems”, we will continue to provide a business-friendly environment, uphold operation of the market and promote free trade. We will also strive to develop new areas of economic growth. The National 13th Five-Year Plan pledges support for Hong Kong to reinforce and enhance its status as an international financial, transport and trade centre; develop its innovation and technology (I&T) industry; and establish itself as a centre for international legal and dispute resolution services in the Asia-Pacific region. The Belt and Road Initiative, as well as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) development have brought enormous opportunities for the economic development of Hong Kong.

  • Chapter 6 Hong Kong
    CHAPTER 6 HONG KONG Key Findings • The Hong Kong government’s proposal of a bill that would allow for extraditions to mainland China sparked the territory’s worst political crisis since its 1997 handover to the Mainland from the United Kingdom. China’s encroachment on Hong Kong’s auton- omy and its suppression of prodemocracy voices in recent years have fueled opposition, with many protesters now seeing the current demonstrations as Hong Kong’s last stand to preserve its freedoms. Protesters voiced five demands: (1) formal with- drawal of the bill; (2) establishing an independent inquiry into police brutality; (3) removing the designation of the protests as “riots;” (4) releasing all those arrested during the movement; and (5) instituting universal suffrage. • After unprecedented protests against the extradition bill, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam suspended the measure in June 2019, dealing a blow to Beijing which had backed the legislation and crippling her political agenda. Her promise in September to formally withdraw the bill came after months of protests and escalation by the Hong Kong police seeking to quell demonstrations. The Hong Kong police used increasingly aggressive tactics against protesters, resulting in calls for an independent inquiry into police abuses. • Despite millions of demonstrators—spanning ages, religions, and professions—taking to the streets in largely peaceful pro- test, the Lam Administration continues to align itself with Bei- jing and only conceded to one of the five protester demands. In an attempt to conflate the bolder actions of a few with the largely peaceful protests, Chinese officials have compared the movement to “terrorism” and a “color revolution,” and have im- plicitly threatened to deploy its security forces from outside Hong Kong to suppress the demonstrations.
