Hong Kong’s first chief executive Tung Chee-hwa has been honoured by the China Institute of America for his decades-long efforts to foster dialogue and understanding between the two countries.

Elderly landlords of subdivided flats say they can’t afford upgrade costs

Some elderly landlords in Hong Kong have said they cannot afford renovations costing as much as HK$400,000 (US$51,060) to ensure their subdivided flats comply with new regulations and they may be forced to take units that rent for HK$3,000 a month off the market. At a media session on Friday, four landlords owning subdivided flats in Sham Shui Po and Yau Ma Tei said they had registered for the government’s grace period under the Basic Housing Unit Ordinance but were struggling to meet the new [...]

86% of Hong Kong children get preferred school places as applications plunge 16%

Around 86 per cent of children seeking places in Hong Kong’s public primary schools have secured one of their top three choices through the central allocation system, a record high and up from about 79 per cent last year, as applicant numbers fell 16 per cent to 16,345, the steepest decline on record. But a representative from a primary school council said competition for discretionary places – commonly known as “door-knocking” – was unlikely to ease, as some parents whose children were [...]

Can pay penalties improve Hong Kong civil service or are they ‘a slap on the wrist’?

A revamped appraisal system that denies salary increments to underperforming Hong Kong civil servants is unlikely to significantly improve efficiency, observers have said, calling for a more balanced approach with team-based performance indicators. The revised system, set to be implemented in October, will penalise the bottom 10 per cent of performers – those rated D to F on a six-grade scale – by making them ineligible for a pay increment. A 5 per cent buffer will be allowed depending on [...]
