至於議員提及執行上的情況，我也要指出，我剛才提及有關建議會牽涉不同行政方面的考慮，比較繁複，包括訂定適用範圍、使用辦法、兌付安排、監管和防偽措施等，我也提及可能需要比較高昂的行 政費用。
As regards the implementation arrangements mentioned by the Honourable Member I need to point out that the proposal as I said earlier involves different rather complicated administrative considerations including determining the scope of coverage the terms of usage the redemption arrangements the control and anti - counterfeiting measures etc . which as I mentioned may result in relatively high administrative costs
另外，我特別想指出，在現階段，基於財政預算案高度保密的原則，我們目前不可以透露更多有關預算案的內容，對於個別建議，我們也不能在此回應。
Besides I especially want to highlight that at the present stage due to the principle of high confidentiality pertaining to the Budget we cannot disclose further details about the Budget nor can we respond to individual proposals
主席，我覺得當局今次又是隨便回答議員的問題。
President I think this time the authorities are not serious in answering Members questions again
我們現在說使用這些消費券以振興消費，並不是局長說的甚麼"替代效應"，叫市民用這些消費券支付基本生活開支。
What we are saying here is to use these consumption vouchers to stimulate consumption . It is not about the substitution effect referred to by the Secretary or about asking people to use these consumption vouchers to meet basic living expenses
我們說的是飲食業、零售和旅遊這3個行業，局長怎會說是以我們提議的消費券用作支付基本生活開支呢？
We are concerned about three industries ie . catering retail and tourism industries . How could the Secretary suggest using the consumption vouchers that we propose to meet basic living expenses?
我想提出的補充質詢是，究竟當局現在是否承認，只是"不為"，而非"不能"也？
My supplementary question is Do the authorities admit that they simply do not want to rather than cannot do it?
主席，多謝議員提出的補充質詢。
President I thank the Honourable Member for the supplementary question
我有兩個地方想多作闡述。
There are two points that I would like to elaborate
議員剛才提到台灣和日本的經驗，我想指出，我是明白和了解的，新民黨建議的1萬港元消費券金額是比較大，但我們的着眼點是有關措施能否達到預期效果，是在於比較下的情況。
The Honourable Member just mentioned the experience in Taiwan and Japan . I want to point out that I understand and appreciate her concern . The HK10,000 consumption voucher proposed by the New Peoples Party is of a rather high value but our focus is on whether the measure concerned can achieve the expected effect under comparison
正如我剛才提到，就台灣的經驗而言，其實當地政府預先估計發放消費券能提高其GDP 0.66%，但最終可見GDP提高的程度只有0.28%至0.43%，較預期估算低得多。
Concerning the experience in Taiwan as I mentioned earlier the local government actually estimated that the handing out of consumption vouchers could have raised its Gross Domestic Product GDP by 0.66 % but at the end only 0.28 % to 0.43 % of its GDP was raised much lower than the original estimation
而日本的情況同樣如此，最終能帶動的消費只佔"地域振興券"使用金額的32%。
The situation in Japan is similar . At the end the consumption stimulated by the consumption coupons only accounted for 32 % of the value of the coupons
另一方面，我想重申，議員剛才提到發放消費券，其實我們十分了解新民黨的論據；我們已知悉他們提出的意見，而在當局整盤的考慮之中，我們會對此建議作出考慮。
On the other hand concerning the handing out of consumption vouchers just mentioned by the Honourable Member I would reiterate that we fully understand the justifications of the New Peoples Party . We have already taken note of their opinions and we will consider this proposal in the context of an overall consideration
主席，我們十分感謝葉劉淑儀議員提出這項質詢，新民黨亦十分支持發放消費券。
President we are very grateful to Mrs Regina IP for raising this question . The New Peoples Party is very supportive to the proposal of handing out consumption vouchers
我想問局長，假設財政司司長或當局討論消費券時，在擔心之餘，會否考慮自由黨建議派發1萬元現金？
I would like to ask the Secretary whether the Liberal Partys proposal of handing out 10,000 in cash will be considered if the Financial Secretary or the authorities still have some worries in the discussion on consumption vouchers
主席，多謝議員的補充質詢。
President I thank the Honourable Member for his supplementary question
正如我剛才在主體答覆中提到，其實政府在制訂任何財政政策時，一方面須考慮措施本身的成效，亦須顧及長遠的財政狀況。
As I mentioned earlier in the main reply in fact when the Government formulates any financial policy it has to consider not only the effectiveness of the measure itself but also the long - term fiscal conditions
議員剛才亦指出，其實財政司司長早前已表示，今個財政年度有機會出現赤字，所以，如果政府向市民派發消費券或現金，便會令財赤規模擴大。
As pointed out just now by the Honourable Member the Financial Secretary has actually remarked earlier that we will likely have a deficit for the current year and thus issuing consumption vouchers or handing out cash to the public by the Government will lead to an increase in the fiscal deficit
因此，我們一定要十分謹慎考慮社會對大額赤字的接受程度，亦要小心評估國際評級機構的反應。
Therefore we should carefully consider public acceptance of a large deficit and assess the reaction of international rating agencies
我們現正在預算案的諮詢階段，我們會虛心聆聽大家的意見，亦會將不同的可行意見考慮在內。
Our Budget is now at the consultation stage . We will listen to peoples views with an open mind and will consider different feasible ideas
我要特別指出，始終政府需要非常審慎地處理任何預算案的措施，我們會本着量入為出及"應使則使"的原則，並以現屆政府急市民所急的態度，決定如何投放資源。
I have to point out particularly that after all the Government needs to be very prudent in dealing with any measure in the Budget . When deciding how to inject our resources we will adhere to the principles of keeping expenditure within the limits of revenues and allocating resources where they are required as well as follow the manner of the incumbent Government in addressing the communitys pressing needs
始終公共資源是有限的，難以滿足所有人的需要，我們無可避免地要作出一些取捨。
Given that public resources are limited it is difficult to satisfy the needs of all people and thus it is inevitable that we will have to make some choices
在這些前提下，我們會審慎考慮對不同措施的建議。
Under this premise we will be prudent in considering various proposed measures
主席，就這數個月的風波，大家知道批發及零售業和飲食業均是重災區，我再次多謝葉劉淑儀議員特別關顧商界的憂慮。
President we know that in the turmoil during these few months the wholesale and retail industry as well as the catering industry are hard hit . I have to thank Mrs Regina IP again for her special concern about the anxiety of the business sector
我要指出的另一方面是，事實上，對於中小企、零售業及餐飲業等現時面對經濟下行壓力，政府對此十分關心並會支持它們。
Another point that I have to highlight is that the Government is in fact deeply concerned about and will support the small and medium enterprises SMEs as well as the retail and catering industries which are facing the pressure of an economic downturn
事實上，正如大家知道，自去年8月起，我們已先後宣布了一系列"撐企業、保就業、紓民困"的措施，當中涉及的金額超過250億元。
In fact as we all know the Government has since August last year announced a series of measures to support enterprises safeguard jobs and relieve peoples burden with total financial implications exceeding 25 billion
舉例說，就中小企方面，我們會進一步優化"發展品牌、升級轉型及拓展內銷市場的專項基金"，即"BUD專項基金"，以及進一步優化中小企業市場推廣基金，並額外注資。
For instance in respect of SMEs we will make further enhancements to the Dedicated Fund on Branding Upgrading and Domestic Sales ie . the BUD Fund and the SME Export Marketing Fund and again provide additional injections into these Funds
在資金方面，我們在中小企融資擔保計劃下，推出九成信貸的擔保產品，可以為中小企提供最多600萬元 的貸款，擔保年期最長為5年；我們亦已優化中小企融資擔保計劃下現時擔保八成貸款計劃的紓緩措施。
In terms of capital under the SME Financing Guarantee Scheme SFGS we will introduce the 90 % Loan Guarantee Product . Each eligible SME can obtain guarantee for term loans up to 6 million with a maximum guarantee period of five years . We have also made enhancements to the relief measures for the 80 % Guarantee Product under SFGS
這兩項措施剛在去年12月獲得財務委員會批准撥款。
Funding was just approved by the Finance Committee for these two measures in December last year
我們會繼續以動態評估來審視現時的經濟狀況，並適時考慮為有需要的中小企業提出一些紓緩和支持措施。
We will continue to review the current economic conditions with dynamic assessments and will give timely consideration to provide relief and supporting measures to the SMEs in need
主席，《2019年撥款條例草案》是一項極為重要的法案，旨在為所有公共服務提供資源。
Chairman the Appropriation Bill 2019 the Bill is a bill of great importance which is designed to provide resources for the delivery of all public services
政府在制定《條例草案》時，已經仔細聆聽社會各階層的意見，以及經過詳細和全面的政策分析，繼而就政府在本財政年度運用的資源作出整全的建議。
In formulating the Bill the Government has listened meticulously to the views of all sectors of society and has upon conducting a detailed and comprehensive policy analysis worked out an all - inclusive proposal on resource utilization by the Government for the current financial year
議員提出的修正案建議削減不同部門用於提供公共服務的資源，以及部門的薪金和日常運作開支。
Members proposed in their amendments to reduce the resources to be allocated to different departments for the provision of public services as well as the estimated expenditure of emoluments for staff of respective departments and their estimated operational expenses
政府在今年4月底致函立法會，就議員因應《條例草案》提出的修正案表達意見。
At the end of April this year the Government wrote to the Legislative Council to express its views on Members amendments moved to the Bill
我們在信中指出，議員提出的修正案如獲得通過，會妨礙政府有效提供公共服務，以及履行身為僱主的法律責任，嚴重影響政府的整體運作。
We submitted in our letter that passage of such amendments proposed by Members would obstruct the Governments effective provision of public services and fulfilment of its legal responsibility as an employer thus affecting seriously the overall government operation
因此，我懇請各位議員，對議員所提出的所有修正案予以否決。
Hence I implore Members to veto all amendments proposed by Members
我今次是就胡志偉議員提出的第1號修正案發言，即為削減分目000而將總目21削減一筆大約相當於行政長官全年薪酬開支的款額。
In this session I am going to speak on CSA No1 proposed by Mr WU Chi - wai that is to have head 21 be deducted by an amount equivalent to the expenditure of the annual emoluments for the position of Chief Executive in respect of subhead 000
我會指出為何過去一年行政長官推行的政策，是與我這次發言支持削減行政長官全年薪酬開支預算相關，兩者互相緊扣。
I will point out why the policies introduced by the Chief Executive in the past year are related to my speech in support of the proposed deduction of the expenditure of the annual emoluments for the position of Chief Executive showing how close they are interrelated
主席，根據香港大學最新的調查顯示，特首林鄭月娥的民望評分與支持率淨值下跌至她上任以來的新低的44.3分，相較兩星期前下跌4.7分，而最新的支持率為32%，反對率則高達56%，支持率淨值為-24%。
Chairman as shown in the results of the latest polls conducted by the University of Hong Kong the popularity rating and net approval rate of the Chief Executive Carrie LAM have hit a new record low of 44.3 points since she took office a drop of 4.7 points from that of two weeks ago where the latest support rating is 32 % and the disapproval rating is as high as 56 % representing a net approval rate of - 24 %
至於她的管治班底，律政司司長鄭若驊的民望評分為29.5，是她上任以來的新低；保安局局長李家超的支持率淨值為-5%，亦是他上任以來的新低。
Among her top echelons in the Government the popularity rating of Secretary for Justice Teresa CHENG is 29.5 points representing a new low since she took office; and the net approval rate of the Secretary for Security John LEE is - 5 % which is also a new record low since he took office
我提醒委員，按照辯論安排，這項辯論將於明天約中午12時結束。
Let me remind Members that according to the arrangements for the debate this debate will come to a close at around 12col00 pm tomorrow
我會於今天傍晚約6時45分請官員發言，然後請動議修正案的16位議員再次發言，之後逐一表決修正案。
I will call upon public officers to speak at around 6col45 pm this evening to be followed by the 16 Members having proposed the amendments who will speak again . Then the amendments will be put to vote one by one
有意發言的委員，尤其是尚未發言的委員，請盡早按下"要求發言"按鈕。
Members who wish to speak in particular those who have not yet spoken please press the Request to speak button as early as possible
本會現在成為全體委員會，繼續審議《2019年撥款條例草案》。
Council now becomes committee of the whole Council to continue the consideration of the Appropriation Bill 2019
全體委員會會繼續第二個環節，就51個總目提出的56項修正案，以及該些總目的款額納入附表，進行合併辯論。
The committee will continue the second session for the joint debate on the 56 amendments to the 51 heads and the sums for such heads standing part of the Schedule
在這環節，我將會就我自己及其他議員提出的部分修正案作綜合發言。
In this session I will speak on my own amendment and some of those proposed by other Members as a whole
首先，我想延續我在上星期四就有關總目70的修正案，即削減大約相當於2019-2020年度入境事務處的十分之一預算運作開支的發言。
First I wish to continue with the speech I made last Thursday on the amendment concerning head 70 which seeks to reduce an amount roughly equivalent to one tenth of the estimated operating expenditure of the Immigration Department ImmD in 2019 - 2020
我上星期的發言內容，主要環繞各類入境政策的數據，在獲批准入境、獲批准逗留及獲得居留權3類人士的數目都屢創新高的情況下，我關注到相關的政府開支和人手需要亦將會持續攀升，而更多外來人口到港，亦會對香港這城市的承載力構成具大壓力。
The speech I made last week mainly centred on the statistics relating to various immigration policies . When the respective numbers of the three types of people namely people who are granted entry to Hong Kong people who are permitted to stay and people who are granted the right of abode have repeatedly set new highs I am concerned that the relevant Government expenditure and manpower requirements will also increase continuously . Besides the influx of more immigrants to Hong Kong will impose enormous pressure on the capacity of our city
我在上次發言的結尾部分提到，如果政府檢討各類入境政策的配額，收緊相關申請門檻，或可減少申請入境和逗留的人數，從而達致節省相關開支的效果，而入境處的資源亦可以更加集中為其他更重要的事務把關，例如阻截非本地孕婦入境、打擊假結婚和假證件等罪行。
As mentioned in the ending part of my previous speech if the Government reviews the quotas of various immigration policies tightens the relevant thresholds for application the number of people applying for entry to and stay in Hong Kong may probably be reduced . This will in turn make a saving on the relevant expenditures and allow ImmD to concentrate its resources on performing its gate - keeping role in other important matters such as stopping non - local pregnant women from entering Hong Kong and combating crimes like bogus marriage and forgery of identification documents
在今年財政預算案的審議階段，我曾向政府查詢多項與看守香港門戶有密切關係的數據。
During the scrutiny of this years Budget I enquired of the Government about a number of figures which are closely related to Hong Kongs gatekeeper
例如陸路管制站的人手，就由2016-2017年度的1,986人，上升至2018-2019年度的3,043人，升幅超過五成，而實際薪金的開支則由7億9,000萬元上升至9億2,000萬元，升幅為16%。
For example the manpower at various land control points has increased by more than 50 % from 1 986 in 2016 - 2017 to 3 043 in 2018 - 2019 . Meanwhile the actual expenditure on remunerations has risen from 790 million to 920 million representing an increase of 16 %
人手和薪金總額上升的原因，與廣深港高速鐵路香港段西九龍站、港珠澳大橋香港口岸，以及即將啟用的蓮塘/香園圍口岸有關。
The cause of the increase in manpower and total amount of remunerations is related to the West Kowloon Station of the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou - Shenzhen - Hong Kong Express Rail Link XRL Hong Kong Port of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge HZMB and the forthcoming commissioning of LiantangHeung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point
新口岸的出現不單帶來了更多外來人口和旅客，亦帶來增聘人手的需要，令相關公共開支上升，同時，前線人員的工作量和壓力亦有增無減。
The presence of new boundary control points not only has brought a surge in immigrants and visitors but has also led to the need to increase manpower thus pushing up the relevant public expenditures and at the same time putting additional workload and pressure on front - line officers continuously
我們看看以截查懷疑大陸孕婦的統計數字為例，入境處在高鐵西九龍站去年9月啟用後至去年年底共3個月期間，截查了高達3,464名大陸孕婦，拒絕了當中124人入境。
Let us take a look at the statistics on the number of suspected pregnant Mainland women intercepted as an example . At the West Kowloon Station of XRL during the three months from its commissioning last September to the end of last year ImmD intercepted as many as 3 464 pregnant Mainland women among whom 124 were refused entry
至於港珠澳大橋香港口岸，入境 處在口岸去年10月啟用後至去年年底共2個月期間，就截查了859名大陸孕婦，拒絕了78人入境。
As for Hong Kong Port of HZMB during the two months from its commissioning last October to the end of last year ImmD intercepted a total of 859 pregnant Mainland women with 78 of them being refused entry
如果連同其他出入境管制站，入境處在2018年全年便截查了超過6萬名大陸孕婦，創了3年來的新高，而當中，剛啟用了數個月的高鐵西九龍站和港珠澳大橋香港口岸，已佔總截查人數的7%。
When counted together with other boundary control points the number of pregnant Mainland women intercepted by ImmD throughout 2018 has exceeded 60 000 which is a record high in three years and 7 % of this total number of persons intercepted comes from the West Kowloon Station of XRL and Hong Kong Port of HZMB both of which just came into operation for a few months
可想而知，當更多口岸落成，被截查和被拒絕入境的大陸孕婦數目將會繼續有增無減。
It is thus conceivable that upon completion of more boundary control points the number of pregnant Mainland women intercepted and refused entry will simply continue to increase
而除了在出入境口岸把關外，我認為另一項看守香港門戶的重要工作，就是打擊假結婚，特別是藉假結婚獲取單程證的大陸移民。
Apart from watching over the boundary control points another important task for Hong Kongs gatekeeper is combating bogus marriages particularly cases involving Mainland immigrants obtaining One - way Permits through bogus marriages
入境處有必要繼續，甚至加大力度搜集與假結婚相關的欺詐行為的證據，包括偽造文書、使用虛假文件及作出虛假陳述等。
It is necessary for ImmD to continue with or even step up its efforts in collecting evidence of fraudulent acts related to bogus marriages including forgery of documents using false documents making false representation etc
入境處調查假結婚的專案小組在2019-2020年度增加了10人後，總共有32人，所涉及的全年薪酬開支約為1,493萬元。
With the addition of 10 more members in 2019 - 2020 the ImmD special task force responsible for investigating bogus marriage cases consists of a total of 32 members and the expenditure involved on their annual remunerations amounts to around 14,930,000
因假結婚而被捕的人數接近3,000人，但成功檢控的人數只有200多人，兩組數字有巨大落差，這可能是與資源和人手不足有關，亦可能是由於無法搜集到相關欺詐行為的充分證據。
While the number of persons arrested for bogus marriages neared 3 000 only 200 - odd persons were successfully prosecuted . The substantial difference between these two figures may have something to do with inadequate resources and manpower and may probably result from the failure to collect sufficient evidence of the relevant fraudulent acts
所以，我認為，用於調查假結婚的資源和人手絕對應該增加，但我們清楚知道，作為立法會議員，我們不能提出增加預算的修正案，只可以提出削減。
Therefore it is my view that the resources and manpower for investigation of bogus marriages should definitely be increased . But we are well aware that as Legislative Council Members we cannot propose any amendment seeking to increase the estimates but only proposals for reductions
如果真的要削減開支的話，就應該從各項入境計劃入手。
If any expenditure is to be reduced indeed we should start with various immigration schemes
正如我上次說過，入境處為處理各項入境政策下的申請所需的人手和薪金開支，分別是100個職位及5,760萬元，即大約是處理假結婚的人手及開支的3倍多。
As I mentioned on the last occasion the manpower and the expenditure on salaries required by ImmD for handling applications under various immigration policies were 100 posts and 57.6 million respectively ie . roughly more than triple the manpower for and the expenditure on dealing with bogus marriages
所以，我認為把人手和資源重新分配，以加強調查假結婚和截查大陸孕婦的邊境管制，這將更符合香港的社會效益，優先保障香港人的福祉和安寧。
In the light of this I think there should be a reallocation of manpower and resources to step up investigations into bogus marriages and interception of pregnant Mainland women at the boundary control points . This will better meet the interests of Hong Kong society and guarantee that Hong Kong peoples well - being and peace will have the first call
我認同入境處是專業的紀律部隊。
I agree that ImmD is a professional disciplined force
不少入境處的前線人員曾表示，為了配合政府的入境政策，他們需要面對相當龐大的工作壓力。
A number of front - line staff ImmD officers have stated that in order to tie in with the Governments admission policies they need to cope with enormous pressure at work
以執行截查大陸孕婦的工作為例，他們需要具備專業知識、豐富經驗、問答技巧及熟悉政策，這樣才可以成功令現時大陸孕婦衝關產子的個案下降。
Just take the task of intercepting pregnant Mainland women as an example . They need to be equipped with professional knowledge rich in experience skilful in questioning and well - versed with the policies . It is only in this way that they can successfully reduce the number of cases involving pregnant Mainland women gatecrashing into Hong Kong for delivery at present
又例如他們每天面對大量的入境旅客，他們需要在短短 數十秒間進行判斷，只有數十秒時間決定是否讓某位旅客入境，過程既耗費精神，也容易使人緊張。
Another example is that with a host of visitors entering Hong Kong every day they are required to make a judgment as to whether a visitor should be allowed entry to the territory within some 10 seconds yes just some 10 seconds
所以，我認為必須從根本、從政策上作出改變，才可以減少旅客過多的情況，以及阻止有人企圖利用假身份入境和移民香港的趨勢，從而分擔及減少入境處前線工作人員的壓力。
The process is both taxing and prone to cause anxiety . Therefore I think it is a must that fundamental changes should be made to the policies before the problem of excessive visitors can be alleviated and the trend of people attempting to use false identities to enter and migrate to Hong Kong can be halted thus easing and reducing the pressure on the front - line ImmD officers
我在上星期說過，檢討各類移民及入境政策，消除假專才和假結婚等現象，就是方法之一。
As I said last week one of the solutions is to review various immigration and admission policies to eliminate phenomena such as bogus professionals and bogus marriages
代理主席，在餘下的時間，我將會討論另一個極龐大的出入境人次的來源，就是數以千萬計的跨境遊客。
Deputy Chairman in my remaining speaking time I will talk about another root cause of the huge number of visitor arrivals and departures that is the tens of millions of cross - boundary tourists
商場、屋邨、大學，甚至郊野公園營地無一幸免，全都可看到有大量旅客的蹤影。
Be it the shopping malls housing estates university campuses and even country park campsites none of them is spared . Flocks of visitors can be seen in all these places
媒體、報章會用"攻佔"、"攻陷"、"霸佔"等詞語來形容此情況。
This situation has been described by the media and newspapers with such terms as seize conquer occupy . It is of course a kind of occupation
那當然是"霸佔"，公園營地、郊野公園、海灘等地方由康樂及文化事務署、漁農自然護理署做管理，用公帑補貼、維修、保養，但這些地方卻被遊客佔用，令香港人放假時不能享用。
Managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and the Agriculture Fisheries and Conservation Department those places like campsites country parks beaches etc . are subsidized repaired and maintained with public funds . But they are now occupied by tourists making it impossible for Hong Kong people to use them during holidays
郊野公園營地堆積大量遊客遺留的垃圾、帳篷，鬧市的商場要實施人潮管制措施。
While country park campsites have been heaped with a mass of rubbish and tents left by tourists shopping malls in downtown areas have to implement crowd control measures
代理主席，你曾否試過無法到你家樓下的酒樓用膳，回家時又無法進入你家大廈的大門？
Deputy Chairman have you ever had the experience of being unable to dine at the restaurant on the ground floor of your block and unable to get to the main entrance of your block when you go home?
商務及經濟發展局局長邱騰華在"黃金周"期間接受傳媒訪問，他說："我們自己出去旅遊，我們去不同地方，都可能遇到相同問題，用同理心，相信不是不能解決"。
In his interview with the media during the Golden Week the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development Edward YAU said When we go abroad for travel and visit different places we may encounter the same problem . I believe nothing cannot be solved with empathy
數年前，香港旅遊發展局主席來到立法會，我問了他一個很簡單的問題。我問他會否開放他的家招呼遊客？他斬釘截鐵地說"當然不會"。
Several years ago when the Chairman of the Hong Kong Tourism Board HKTB came to the Legislative Council I asked him a very simple question of whether he would open his home for tourists and he answered unequivocally Of course not
代理主席，香港是我們的家，不同的社區是我們居住的地方，不是旅遊景點。
Deputy Chairman Hong Kong is our home and different communities are our residential neighbourhoods instead of tourism attractions
現時特區政府的旅遊政策，就令到我們的家、我們身處的社區、我們居住的地方都變成旅客的景點。
The existing tourism policy of the SAR Government has turned our home our communities our residential neighbourhoods into attractions for tourists
世界上有哪些城市會這 樣呢？
Which city in the world will let this happen?
有哪個城市好像香港般有700多萬人口，每年有超過6,000萬旅客到訪呢？
Which city is like Hong Kong a city with a population of some 7 million and over 60 million visitors every year?
看看日本這個國家，2018年只有2,700萬遊客，但同年，香港卻有6,500萬遊客，比日本多超過1倍。
Look at Japan . In 2018 it only had 27 million tourists whereas Hong Kong had 65 million which is more than its double
荒謬之處是現時特區政府習非成是，這種情況更是它一手造成的。
The absurdity is that the current SAR Government takes what is wrong as right . That situation is simply of its own making
他們前往東涌購買兩支豉油，佔用了本來為香港人上班、上學而設計的集體運輸系統到處"打卡"。
When they go to Tung Chung to buy two bottles of soy sauce they take photos everywhere using the mass transit system originally designed for Hong Kong people commuting to work and to school
用回邱騰華的話"用同理心"，我們就會看到現時的情況荒謬到極點。
With empathy―the phrase used by Edward YAU―we will see the current situation is an utter nonsense
我認為香港的旅客承載量已經嚴重超出負荷，政府、商務及經濟發展局局長一定要承擔責任，局長理應要減薪，而且，政府亦不應再增加旅遊業撥款以吸引更多遊客訪港，令本港不能夠負擔，要我們承受社區"迫爆"的結果。
In my view the tourist receiving capacity of Hong Kong has been grossly overloaded and for this the Government and the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development must be held accountable . The Secretary should have his emoluments reduced and also the Government should stop increasing the funding for the tourism industry to attract more visitors to Hong Kong as this will end up overburdening Hong Kong and subjecting us to the consequence of overcrowded communities
看看過去3年的數字，旅遊業附加值佔本地生產總值的百分比，由5%逐年下降至4.5%，但同一時間，遊客人次卻大幅上升。
Looking at the statistics of the past three years we will see that the added value of the tourism industry as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product GDP has gradually dropped from 5 % to 4.5 % year by year but meanwhile there has been a substantial increase in the number of visitor arrivals
