Item 2: Matters for discussion (a) “Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030” (SSPDC Paper 1/17) 3. The Chairman welcomed Mr Eric MA, the Under Secretary for Development, and the representatives of the Planning Department (“PlanD”) to the meeting. 4. Mr Eric MA introduced Paper 1/17. Ms Margaret CHAN introduced the study proposals in “Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030” (“Hong Kong 2030+”) with the aid of PowerPoint. 5. Mr TAM Kwok-kiu raised the following views and enquiries: (i) he reckoned that “Hong Kong 2030+” still championed the mode of promoting growth through infrastructural development. He pointed out that some civic groups looked askance at the population projections made by the Government. Since the population projections would directly affect the entire planning (e.g. whether it was necessary to develop a new core business district), the authorities must project the population accurately so as to map out the direction of development and inform the public; (ii) the authorities wanted to create land through reclamation but to his knowledge, members of the public neither supported reclamation in Victoria Harbour, nor did they reach - 5 - Action by consensus on carrying out reclamation at other sites. In this connection, he queried whether it was desirable to promote growth through infrastructural development and held that the authorities should carry out consultation on this so as to forge public consensus; (iii) it was incumbent upon Hong Kong, a world city, to cut greenhouse gas emissions, fight global climate change and promote biodiversity. He asked whether reclamation and infrastructural projects would have impact on the environment and climate change; (iv) he opined that “Hong Kong 2030+” had neither address the urgent housing needs of Hong Kong people; nor had it proposed any specific solution for that. Hong Kong was beset by the problem of urban decay while there would not be enough land for building subsidised housing in the next decade. He therefore suggested releasing land in old districts to cope with housing needs. 6. Mr WAI Woon-nam raised the following views and enquiries: (i) he reckoned that the Government had rushed into implementing some projects without consultation. He enquired about the period and areas of consultation for “Hong Kong 2030+” and hoped that the authorities and the relevant government departments would work out better plans for the future; (ii) the Bureau estimated that Hong Kong would witness a nearly 300-fold increase in the number of old private residential units in the future. He recalled that an urban renewal plan for the next 20 years had been worked out when the Land Development Corporation was transformed into the Urban Renewal Authority (“URA”) but the current redevelopment progress was still slow; (iii) URA would commence study on the urban renewal of Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok District. He held that there were also many old buildings in Sham Shui Po District (“SSP District”) and the residents had asked URA to take the lead in redeveloping the district. Yet the authorities did not made any long-term planning for SSP District and the overall condition of the district had not been improved; (iv) the reclamation at Kau Yi Chau would affect people living on Lantau Island and hence should be handled with care. 7. Mr KONG Kwai-sang raised the following views and enquiries: (i) “Hong Kong 2030+” was a large scale planning exercise. He casted doubt on the justifications for the relevant planning and wanted to know the details of public consultation and whether the authorities had any forethought about it; (ii) Hong Kong was bound by international agreements on climate change, biodiversity and energy saving and carbon reduction. He reckoned that the development of artificial island at eastern Lantau by reclamation would destroy biodiversity and affect environment and queried how the project could save energy, cut emission and comply with the relevant agreements. 8. Mr Kalvin HO raised the following views and enquiries: (i) how the authorities would realise the suggested visions . For example, the authorities estimated that the number of private residential units aged 70 years or above would increase to about - 6 - Action by 326 000 in 2046 and he wondered whether the authorities had set aside enough land for urban renewal and redevelopment.

  • Hong Kong's National Security
    FEBRUARY 2021 HONG KONG’S NATIONAL SECURITY LAW: A Human Rights and Rule of Law Analysis by Lydia Wong and Thomas E. Kellogg THE NATIONAL SECURITY LAW constitutes one of the greatest threats to human rights and the rule of law in Hong Kong since the 1997 handover. This report was researched and written by Lydia Wong (alias, [email protected]), research fellow, Georgetown Center for Asian Law; and Thomas E. Kellogg ([email protected]), executive director, Georgetown Center for Asian Law, and adjunct professor of law, Georgetown University Law Center. (Ms. Wong, a scholar from the PRC, decided to use an alias due to political security concerns.) The authors would like to thank three anonymous reviewers for their comments on the draft report. We also thank Prof. James V. Feinerman for both his substantive inputs on the report, and for his longstanding leadership and guidance of the Center for Asian Law. We would also like to thank the Hong Kongers we interviewed for this report, for sharing their insights on the situation in Hong Kong. All photographs by CLOUD, a Hong Kong-based photographer.

  • Street Occupations, Neglected Democracy, and Contested Neoliberalism in Hong Kong
    Street Occupations in Hong Kong 101 Street Occupations, Neglected Democracy, and Contested Neoliberalism in Hong Kong Miguel A. Martínez* he Umbrella Movement (UM) is the conventional label applied to the street occupations that took place in Hong Kong (HK) between September 28 and December 15, 2014. Many participants Talso called it the Umbrella Revolution (Veg 2016, 680). UM activists strove for HK citizens’ right to universal suffrage applicable to the election of the chief executive and the whole legislature. The HK miniconstitution, or Ba- sic Law, in force since the return of the former British colony to People’s Republic of China (PRC) sovereignty in 1997, expressed the same goal as an “ultimate aim” to be implemented “in accordance with the principle of gradual and orderly progress” (J. Ng 2016, 56).1 However, despite the continu- ous pressure exerted by the pan-democratic camp, the HK government has postponed the regulation and implementation of universal suffrage to date. With these promises and pressures in sight, a process of electoral reform was launched by the HK Special Administrative Region (SAR) govern- ment in 2013. To the disappointment of the pan-democrats’ aspirations, the electoral reform was substantially constrained by two documents issued by the Chinese central government in June and August 2014. In a white paper issued in June, the central authorities asserted their absolute power to interpret the Basic Law.
