First question. Technology Voucher Programme 1. MR CHUNG KWOK-PAN (in Cantonese): President, in November 2016, the Innovation and Technology Commission launched, on a pilot basis, a Technology Voucher Programme ("TVP") to subsidize local small and medium enterprises ("SMEs") in using technological services or solutions to enhance their productivity, or upgrade or transform their business processes. Some persons-in-charge of SMEs have relayed to me that the long time taken for vetting and approval of TVP applications have resulted in delays in the implementation of their innovation and technology projects. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (1) of the number of applications received since the launch of TVP, with a breakdown by the major type of businesses in which the applicants engaged and the technological services or solutions involved in the applications; among such applications, the respective numbers and percentages of cases approved and rejected; (2) of the respective average and longest time taken for vetting and approval of the applications before they were approved; whether it has reviewed if the vetting and approval time is too long and whether it will streamline the vetting and approval procedure; if it will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and (3) whether the number of TVP applications has shown an upward trend recently; whether it will extend the scope of TVP and increase the amount of subsidy to complement the implementation of the "re-industrialization" policy; if so, of the details; if not, the reasons for that? SECRETARY FOR INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY (in Cantonese): I thank Mr CHUNG for his question. President, the Innovation and Technology Commission ("ITC") launched TVP on 21 November 2016 to subsidize local SMEs in using technological services and solutions to improve productivity, or LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 28 March 2018 7837 upgrade or transform their business processes. TVP has approved about $50 million in a short period of 15 months, benefiting enterprises of different types. My reply to Mr CHUNG's question is as follow: (1) From the launch of TVP to late February this year, a total of 889 enterprises submitted applications. The applicant enterprises come from various industries, including mainly wholesale and retail, import and export trade and professional services. TVP has also benefited many traditional shops such as florists, restaurants, Chinese and western clinics, travel agencies, as well as shops selling dried seafood or furniture. With no restriction on the types of technological services, the applications involve a wide range of technological solutions, with the more common ones being enterprises resource planning solutions, document management and mobile access systems, electronic inventory management systems, point-of-sales systems, and electronic procurement management systems, etc. A detailed breakdown is set out in the Annex. Of the 403 applications assessed by the TVP Committee ("the Committee") so far, 377 were approved funding, representing a success rate of 94%. Only 26 applications were not supported by the Committee. Another 348 were awaiting supplementary information from the applicant enterprises or were under assessment by the Secretariat. The remaining 138 applications could not be processed and had to be returned, mainly because the applicant enterprises could not submit all the supporting documents required.

    Honorary Awards Ceremony 榮譽博士學位頒授典禮 2019/2020 Honorary Doctor of Social Science Dr Edward LEONG Che-hung Public Orator Professor Matthew LEE Kwok-on Mr Council Chairman: Dr Edward Leong Che-hung is well-known both in his profession of medicine and in the sector of public service. In his illustrious career of more than fifty years, his accomplishments are remarkable in pioneering new surgical procedures, educating generations of doctors, initiating discussions and promoting awareness of diverse medical and social issues, and in different ways, bettering the life of many individuals. Now in his eighties, Dr Leong remains as energetic and steadfast as ever in his efforts to make the world a better place. Dr Leong comes from a family with extensive involvement in various areas of medicine. His father, also a medical doctor, served the Aberdeen community with dedication for decades in the last century. In those days of austerity, Dr Leong saw his parents carrying medical provisions in their rattan baskets every day as they went around treating their patients and foregoing their own comfort in the service of their calling. Such unflagging loyalty to the well-being of those under their care inspired Dr Leong to take up a career in medicine. After he obtained his medical degree from the University of Hong Kong, Dr Leong taught in the Department of Surgery of his alma mater from 1963 to 1978, at the same time carrying on a robust research agenda. His work on gastrocystoplasty, a global first, was considered a breakthrough in both technology and scientific research. His advancement in the use of material from the stomach for use in cystoplasty in humans made him world famous and earned him the position of Hunterian Professor at the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 1975.

  • Chapter 6 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.
