中央已提出一個非常具體或很方向性的通關要求，關乎特殊豁免人員等，而漁民當然是其中一類。
The Central Authorities have put forward very specific conditions or directional requirements for the resumption of cross - boundary travel in respect of specially exempted persons etc and fishermen certainly belong to one of the categories
然而，他們有一句後話，就是各市因應不同情況制訂自己的模式。
However they said later that each municipality should develop its own model according to different circumstances
漁民最少要去6個市，而6個市的模式各有不同。
Fishermen have to go to at least six municipalities and each of the six municipalities has a different model
有時候我們辦事情也無所適從，這邊突然要求遞交回鄉證，那邊突然要求遞交"驗船紙"，我也難以有統一的信息給予漁民。
Sometimes we are at a loss as to what to do as one side suddenly requires the submission of the Home Visit Permit and the other side suddenly asks for the submission of the certificate of survey . I can hardly provide uniform information to the fishermen
所以，我希望在這方面，政府不提供金錢資助也罷，但對於政策的通順或統合，能否幫一把呢？
Therefore in this connection it is fine for the Government not to provide financial assistance but can it offer some assistance in rationalizing or consolidating the policies?
我的辦事處基本上只有我和另一名負責處理內地事務的人員，希望政府幫忙......
Basically there is only me and another staff member responsible for Mainland affairs in my office . I hope the Government can help
可惜的是，政府一直標籤這群業界，認為它們屬非必要行業，因此斷斷續續地勒令其停業，完全忽視平衡防疫和經濟活動的需要。
Unfortunately the Government has been labelling these industries as non - essential and has been intermittently ordering them to cease operations completely ignoring the need to balance epidemic prevention and economic activities
他們與酒吧、食肆和酒店唇齒相依，當政府禁止晚市堂食及禁止酒吧營業時，這群freelance音樂表演者便手停口停或口停手停。
They are closely connected with bars food establishments and hotels . When the Government banned evening dine - in services and the operation of bars these freelance music performers could hardly make ends meet
另一群人士是飯盒供應商，他們屬於飲食業界，同時也可算是半個教育行業，多年來為中、小學生服務。
Another group of people are school lunch suppliers who belong to the catering industry and can also be regarded as a quasi - educational industry serving primary and secondary school students for many years
就上述行業，我曾向政府爭取，為他們提供額外資助。
As regards the above mentioned industries I have asked the Government to provide them with additional subsidies
我知道資助未必可以為他們完全解困，但至少能夠解燃眉之急。
I know that subsidies may not be able to provide them with complete relief but at least they can provide immediate relief
最重要的，是政府不要再對他們實施"全禁"，而應放他們一條生路，尤其是在"疫苗氣泡"下，我們也會繼續呼籲業界人士盡快接種疫苗，讓社會盡快回復正常。
The most important thing is that the Government should not impose a total ban on them but should give them a way out . Under the vaccine bubble in particular we will continue to appeal to members of the industry to get vaccinated as soon as possible so that society can return to normal as soon as possible
主席，今年新冠病毒仍然肆虐，即使有多款疫苗已可緊急使用，但全世界多個國家或地區依然有大量感染個案。
President the noval coronavirus is still rampant this year . Despite the availability of several vaccines for emergency use there are still a large number of infections in many countries or regions around the world
近日受到變 種病毒的影響，一些疫情本來已穩定的國家也出現感染個案回升的問題。
Recently under the influence of mutant strains there is a resurgence of infections in certain countries where the epidemic has been stabilized earlier
現在看來，今年疫情能否完全平息，真的難以樂觀，或許人類可能要習慣與病毒同行。
Now it seems that we can hardly be optimistic about whether the epidemic will be completely quelled this year and perhaps humans may have to get used to coexist with this virus
香港今年比較幸運，近期已經有10多天無新增個案，希望不要斷纜，打針的市民亦多了，經濟逐步有起色，失業率逐漸回落。
This year Hong Kong has been more fortunate . There have been no new cases for more than 10 days recently and I hope this trend will not be broken . As more people have received vaccination the economy is starting to pick up and unemployment rate is going down gradually
不過，雖然香港的情況比較好，但附近地區仍然有感染個案，全面恢復通關仍然遙遙無期，有部分行業就因為通關無期而要繼續坐困愁城。
Although the situation in Hong Kong has improved cases of infection are still found in nearby regions so the full resumption of cross - boundary travel is still remote . For certain industries the endless delay in the reopening of boundary crossing has left them in a helpless predicament
今天立法會辯論由姚思榮議員提出的"支援受疫情影響的特困行業"議案。
Today the Legislative Council is debating a motion on Providing support for hard - hit industries affected by the epidemic proposed by Mr YIU Si - wing
目前仍有多個行業處於極困難時期，例如航空業、展覽業、跨境客運業等，但今天我想集中談旅遊業。
Currently a number of industries such as the aviation industry the exhibition industry and the cross - boundary passenger service sector are still in deep waters
旅遊業是香港的支柱產業，亦是今次受打擊最嚴重的一個行業。
Tourism is a pillar industry of Hong Kong which is also the hardest hit industry this time . The tourism industry has pointed out that the industry is completely frozen this year
業界指出，今年旅遊業完全冰封，外面的旅客無法來港，香港旅客亦無法外出，業界生意下跌接近99%，目前只能搞本地遊，但收入有限，只是聊勝於無。
While inbound tourists cannot come to Hong Kong Hong Kong people cannot visit other places either . The business of the industry has dropped by nearly 99 % . At present they can merely engage in local tourism and the income so generated is limited but only better than nothing
所以，要業界復生，唯有寄望早日通關。
Therefore the only way to revive the industry is to hope for the early resumption of cross - boundary travel
事實上，政府已很努力恢復香港經濟，以及協助旅遊業。
In fact the Government has been working very hard to revive the economy of Hong Kong and help the tourism industry
日前香港與澳門官員開會，商討兩地通關的措施，如果香港能夠持續28天"清零"，兩地便可以恢復通關。
A few days ago officials from Hong Kong and Macao held a meeting to discuss measures for resuming cross - border travel between the two places . If Hong Kong can meet the target of 28 consecutive days of zero infection cross - border commuting between the two places can be resumed
可是，當然，香港市民要先接種疫苗，初期會有人數限制，亦有熔斷機制，但恢復通關總算帶來希望。
Yet of course Hong Kong people must first receive vaccination . Initially there will be a cap on the number of travellers and a suspension mechanism but the resumption of cross - border travel will after all bring hope
我同意姚思榮議員提出，政府應該加碼支援旅遊及相關行業，以免這些行業一沉不起。
I agree with Mr YIU Si - wing that the Government should increase its support for the tourism industry and related industries to prevent them from sinking
事實上，姚議員的憂慮是有道理的，如果旅遊公司因為長時間看不到曙光，最終紛紛結業離場，即使將來疫情平息，亦一定要很長時間才能恢復旅遊業的光輝。
In fact Mr YIUs concern is justified . If travel companies close down one after another because they have not seen any ray of hope for a prolonged period it will definitely take a long time for the tourism industry to restore its glory when the epidemic subsides in the future
另外，有很多員工可能已轉行，業界亦要花很多時間重新訓練新員工，對行業的發展會有很大影響。
Moreover as many employees may have switched occupations by then the industry will have to spend a lot of time on training new employees which will have a great impact on the development of the industry
至於為特困行業再次推出保就業計劃，大方向我是支持的，但執行上真的要吸收上次的經驗，作出改變。
As for the launching of another round of programme for safeguarding jobs for hard - hit industries I support the general direction but the authorities should learn from the experience of the previous rounds and make changes
保就業措施包含了各行各業，但有些行業的業務其實有大幅增長，依然獲資助，引起怨言。
The measures to safeguard jobs cover all trades and industries yet certain industries which have actually experienced significant growth in business are still granted the subsidies and this has led to complaints
所以，政府的措施一定要真正照顧那些特困行業，制訂專門措施才具意義。
Therefore the Governments measures must truly address the needs of the hard - hit industries for only the formulation of customized measures will be meaningful
旅遊業是香港的支柱產業，對香港經濟有重要貢獻，亦養活了不少員工。
Tourism is a pillar industry in Hong Kong which has made important contribution to the economy of Hong Kong and supported the living of many employees
不過，近年有批評指，業界太過注重內地旅客的業務，令到行業發展失去平衡。
However in recent years there have been criticisms that the industry has focused too much on the business involving Mainland visitors resulting in an imbalance in the development of the industry
事實上，近年的旅遊模式正在不斷轉變中，業界應該利用現在這段時間，研究如何協助產業升級，提升行業競爭力，令旅遊業可持續發展。
As a matter of fact the mode of travel is changing in recent years . The industry should make use of this time to examine ways to facilitate the upgrade of the industry and enhance its competitiveness so that the tourism industry can develop in a sustainable way
主席，我首先感謝姚思榮議員提出這項議員議案，讓大家可以進一步討論政府應該如何加強支援，以協助受疫情影響的特困行業，特別是香港很重要的資產旅遊業。
President first of all I thank Mr YIU Si - wing for proposing this Members Motion for it enables us to further discuss what the Government should do to provide greater support and assistance for the hard - hit industries especially the tourism industry which is a most important asset of Hong Kong
主席，一場新冠肺炎疫情令香港的出入境及本地遊陷入漫長的停頓，很多與旅遊相關的行業如旅行社、酒店、賓館、海陸空交通、會展、零售及飲食業，均受到不同程度的打擊，影響確實廣泛。
President the outbreak of the Coronavirus disease has caused both inbound and outbound travels as well as the local tours in Hong Kong to come to a prolonged standstill . Many tourism - related sectors such as travel agencies hotels guesthouses marinelandair transport convention and exhibition retail and food and beverage services have been dealt a blow to varying degrees . The impact is indeed extensive
大家皆知道，旅遊業直接及間接帶動的就業人數相當龐大，約80萬人，很多導遊及旅遊巴司機被迫手停口停或需轉行，陷入前所未有的困境。
As we all know the tourism industry has directly and indirectly taken on a very large share of the workforce or around 800 000 workers . Many tourist guides and drivers of tour service coaches have been forced out of work and hence not being able to make ends meet or they have to switch to other industries facing unprecedented difficulties
正如我剛才提到，我是九龍西的立法會議員，我有時路經尖沙咀，看到過往車水馬龍的這個旅遊區現變得水盡鵝飛，令我萬分傷感。
As I said just now I am a Member of the Legislative Council representing Kowloon West . Sometimes when I passed by Tsim Sha Tsui I felt overwhelmingly sad on seeing that this tourist area which used to be hustling and bustling has become quiet and deserted
政府過去推出了多輪紓困措施，以協助受疫情影響的行業，但有關措施只能解決燃眉之急，紓一時之困。
The Government has rolled out several rounds of relief measures to help the industries affected by the epidemic but these measures can only address their pressing needs and relieve them of their plights temporarily
要解決香港經濟、民生及業界的問題，始終需要恢復通關，讓旅客重臨。
To resolve the economic and livelihood problems as well as those faced by the industries in Hong Kong it is after all necessary to resume cross - border travel for tourists to return
在未來的日子裏，政府重中之重的工作是防疫抗疫。
In the coming days preventing and fighting the epidemic will be the most important area of work to be carried out by the Government
我們的疫情本來可以稍稍受控，但大埔昨天又出現一宗不明源頭的本地個案，令我們很擔心。
Originally we had been able to bring the epidemic slightly more under control but yesterday there was a local case with unknown sources in Tai Po and this we think is gravely worrying
所以，政府要想辦法，思考如何加大力度，透過不同方式支援業界。
Therefore the Government must think about how efforts can be stepped up to support the industries in different ways
就此，我提出3項建議。
To this end I have three suggestions to make
第一，是鼓勵和刺激本地消費。
Firstly we should encourage and stimulate domestic consumption
五千元電子消費券下月4日便開始接受申請，我希望政府不要派完錢便算數，希望政府做好相關配套。
The 5,000 electronic consumption vouchers will be open for application on the fourth of next month . I hope that the Government will not consider the case closed after disbursing the vouchers . I hope that the Government will properly carry out the relevant matching work
我記得在2003年的SARS後，政府曾撥款支持業界推動本地旅遊、消費、舉行大抽獎等。
I recall that in 2003 when SARS subsided the Government made provisions to support the industries in promoting local tours and consumer spending organizing lucky draws and so on
政府可否參考過往經驗，發起多輪宣傳攻勢，推動在18區內多舉辦購物節呢？
Can the Government by drawing reference from the past experience spearhead various rounds of publicity campaigns for more shopping festivals to be organized in the 18 districts?
上星期日，我與"財爺"落區，"財爺"甚受歡迎。
Last Sunday when the Financial Secretary and I visited the district the Financial Secretary was quite popular
很多市民皆覺得電子消費券是一種新模式，最少可以刺激一下經濟、止一下痛，給他們一些幫助。
Many members of the public think that the electronic consumption vouchers are a new attempt which can at least stimulate the economy a bit relieve them of the pain a bit and provide them with some help
第二，是發掘本地旅遊資源，同時借助本地旅遊幫助本地消費，讓我們剛才提及的餐飲和零售業直接得益。
Secondly we should explore local tourism resources and at the same time leverage local tourism to drive domestic consumption so that the food and beverage services and retail industries that we mentioned earlier can directly benefit from it
不過，就有關工作，最近也有人指數量仍然不足夠。
But insofar as this measure is concerned recently there is the view that the number is still inadequate and actually Mr YIU Si - wing and I have been following it up
我與姚思榮議員其實一直在跟進，希望局長和副局長考慮加大力度推動，亦希望更多酒店和賓館參與。
We hope that the Secretary and the Under Secretary will consider stepping up efforts to promote this measure . We also hope to see participation from more hotels and guesthouses
他們其實十分願意參與，但需要政府幫一把。
In fact they are very willing to take part in it but they need some assistance from the Government
第四，是最後亦是最重要的一點，便是我希望政府能更好地鼓勵市民接種疫苗。
Fourthly and last but not least I hope that the Government can better encourage the public to receive vaccination
我知道現時各區多位社會賢達出錢出力，例如在深水埗區，最近深水埗各界慶典委員會推出了疫苗接種獎賞計劃，為鼓勵市民接種疫苗而舉辦抽獎活動。
I understand that many community leaders in various districts have contributed money and efforts for this cause . In Sham Shui Po for instance the Sham Shui Po Celebrations Association has recently introduced a vaccination reward scheme under which a lucky draw is held to encourage the public to receive vaccination
我相信我們要解決這問題，需要群策群力，全港市民一起參與。
I believe it takes concerted efforts and participation from all the people of Hong Kong to address this issue
我希望可以跟大家一起突破現時的困境。
I hope that we can work together to break away from the present predicaments
主席，疫情已發生接近1年半，很多首當其衝的行業在這段時間經歷了前所未有的難關。
President it has been almost one and a half years since the outbreak of the epidemic and many industries that have been the first to bear the brunt of it have experienced unprecedented hardship during this period of time
我支持此項議案的原因，除了是希望尋找新一輪支援"打工仔"的方法，亦希望大家共商對策，讓這些多年來幫助香港發展優勢但在疫情下特困的行業可以鬆一口氣，避免毀於一旦。
I support this motion not only because I hope to find a new round of support for wage earners but also because I hope that we can work out a solution together so that these industries which have helped Hong Kong develop its advantages over the years but have been particularly hard hit by the epidemic can breathe a sigh of relief and avoid overnight collapse
主席，今天討論的是特困行業，很多同事剛才也提及了很多不同行業，包括旅遊行業、製作公司、跨境運輸行業。
President todays discussion is about hard - hit industries and many Honourable Colleagues have mentioned a lot of different industries including the tourism industry production companies and the cross - boundary transport sector
我坐着聆聽了很久，其實大家都很關心跨境運輸行業在這1年半所飽受的衝擊。
Seated I have listened for a long time . In fact we all have grave concerns about the impact the cross - boundary transport sector has suffered in the past one and a half years
這仍然是社會各界的一個問號。
It remains a question among various sectors of the community
過往，我一直聽到跨境運輸行業很多不同的聲音，聽到很多業界人士的苦水，他們每一個都是很特別的案例。
I have heard many different views voiced by the cross - boundary transport sector and the bitterness of many of its members each of whom is a very special case
主席，跨境運輸行業面對全面封關，17個月以來一直苦撐，業界人士已經到了山窮水盡的地步，即使現時看到了曙光，有機會通關也好，他們可能連復業前保養車輛、噴防疫塗層的資金也拿不出來。
President in the face of a total border shutdown the cross - boundary transport sector has been keeping their heads above water for 17 months . Members of the industry are already at the end of their rope and even if there is now a ray of hope and the likelihood that cross - border travel will be resumed they may not even be able to get the funds to maintain their vehicles and spray anti - viral coatings before resuming operation
老實說，他們的現金流正面對嚴峻的考驗，銀行又有機會call loan，我相信這些情況會令他們經營得特別困難。
Frankly speaking their cash flow is being put to a serious test and the banks may call loans . I believe these circumstances will make their operation particularly difficult
究竟特區政府可以做甚麼？
What exactly can the Special Administrative Region Government do?
我覺得這是值得大家探討的課題。
I think this is a topic worth exploring
我們不單要幫助小企業，更要幫助"打工仔"，以至他們的下一代。
We should help not only small enterprises but also wage earners and even their next generation
在這樣的情況下，我認為即使疫情有所減退，公司可以復業也好，以往它們擁有的生意網絡、基業、成績、經驗都未必可以在短時間內重回昔日光景。
Under such circumstances I think that even if the epidemic has subsided and companies can resume business their business network foundation performance and experience may not be restored to their former glories within a short period of time
我們明白，公帑要很小心運用，但我們更加知道，如果公帑用得適當、用得好的話，很多市民都會"拍爛手掌"，覺得政府做得好。
We understand that public money has to be used very carefully but we also know that if public money is spent properly and in a good way the Governments good deed will be greeted with many peoples thunderous applause
主席，我支持易志明議員所提出的建議，即提供"復業津貼"。
President I support the suggestion made by Mr Frankie YICK namely the provision of a business resumption allowance
可以預見的是，在面對經濟開始復蘇、再起飛的時候，很多行業已難以撐下去。
It is foreseeable that when the economy is beginning to recover and reboot many industries can hardly stay afloat
"復業津貼"能夠幫助他們，可以提供支援。
The business resumption allowance can help them and support them
讓我舉一個例子，陸路跨境客運業界希望政府可以為每輛跨境巴士及出租車提供一定金額的一次性資助。
Let me give you an example . The land - based cross - boundary passenger service sector hopes that the Government will provide a one - off subsidy of a certain amount for each cross - boundary coach and taxi
這除了可以彌補政府之前的支援不夠精準的問題之外，更可以幫助業界做好復業前的驗車、交通安全等各方面的支援工作。
This will not only make up for the lack of precision in the Governments previous support but also assistance for the sector to properly undertake tasks ancillary to resumption of business such as vehicle inspection and traffic safety
大家都明白，全面通關之後，跨境客運業界會再次為以往不同的站點提供服務，甚至會因應大灣區的發展營運服務，提供不同班次。
As we all understand after the resumption of full cross - border travel the cross - boundary passenger service sector will again provide services at different stops and will even operate services with different frequencies to tie in with the development of the Greater Bay Area
主席，我支持今天這項議案的另一原因，是希望政府真的在當前如此緊張的情況之下，把資源精準地投入一些現時面對復業，以及在過往1年半根本無法捱得住的行業，能幫助一個人就一個人，能幫助一間公司就一間公司，我覺得這才是是重點。
President another reason why I support todays motion is that I hope the Government under such serious circumstances now can truly allocate resources precisely to industries which are about to resume business and have not been able to survive the past one and a half years . I think it is the be - all and end - all that one person helped is one person saved and one company helped is one company saved
我希望大家同心合力，既同坐一條船，便一起同心捱過這樣的情況。
I hope that we will work together . Since we are in the same boat we should overcome this situation with one mind
多謝主席，我謹此支持原議案及修正案。
Thank you President . I support the original motion and the amendment
主席，政府公布最新的失業數字是6%，回落到新冠病毒疫情爆發最初時的水平。
President the latest unemployment rate released by the Government is 6 % returning to the level at the beginning of the COVID - 19 epidemic outbreak
不過，正如勞工及福利局羅致光局長早前指出，很多勞工密集型行業的業務收益，仍然遠低於疫情前的水平，勞工市場需要更長時間才能顯著復蘇。
Nevertheless as the Secretary for Labour and Welfare Dr LAW Chi - kwong has point out the business receipts of many labour - intensive industries are still far below the pre - epidemic level . The labour market will take a longer time to make a significant recovery
姚思榮議員今日提出"支援受疫情影響的特困行業"議案，便是希望為這類行業提供額外的支援措施，讓行業及從業員得以在疫下延長其喘息時間，等待機會重新出發。
The motion on Providing support for hard - hit industries affected by the epidemic proposed by Mr YIU Si - wing today seeks to provide additional support measures for these industries so that the industries and their practitioners can have a longer period of respite under the epidemic and wait for the opportunity to start afresh
香港的4個傳統支柱產業：金融服務、旅遊、貿易及物流和專業及工商業支援服務，合共的總增加價值在2019年佔本地生產總值56.4%，僱用174萬人。
The share of the total value added of the four traditional pillar industries namely financial services tourism trading and logistics and professional and producer services amounted to 56.4 % of the Gross Domestic Product in 2019 employing 1.74 million people
眾所周知，其中的支柱產業之一的旅遊業，現時飽受疫情摧殘，當中包括易志明議員修正案提出的跨境客運業。
As we all know one of the pillar industries the tourism industry is suffering greatly from the epidemic including the cross - boundary passenger service sector mentioned in Mr Frankie YICKs amendment
假如該行業嚴重受挫，難以重拾動力，四大支柱便會缺少了一隻腳，日後香港的經濟更依賴金融業及專業工商等，只會令香港的產業更趨單一化，絕非好事。
If that industry fails to regain its momentum due to the severe setback one of the four pillars will be missing thus Hong Kongs economy will rely even more heavily on the financial professional and industrial and commercial industries in the future . This will make Hong Kongs industries even more homogenous which is by no means a good thing
疫情爆發後，政府推出不同的紓困措施以援助相關的困難行業。
After the outbreak of the epidemic the Government has introduced various relief measures to help industries in difficulties
就以旅遊及飲食業來說，政府透過3輪防疫抗疫基金及其他計劃，向旅遊業累計提供總承擔額近26億元，同樣地，飲食業亦累計獲得116億元的資助。
Take the tourism and catering industries as an example . The Government provided the tourism industry with a total commitment of nearly 2.6 billion through three rounds of the Anti - epidemic Fund and other schemes
可見，政府對於部分行業有適時提供支援。
Similarly the catering industry has also Government has extended timely support to certain industries
但是，近期疫情雖然有所緩和，最新的調查顯示大部分主要行業的失業率均有所下跌，當中跌幅較大的零售、住宿及膳食服務業，合計失業率雖下跌0.5%，但仍然高達9.4%。
With the easing of the epidemic recently a latest survey indicated that the unemployment rates in most major industries have somewhat declined . Among them the combined unemployment rate of the retail accommodation and food services sectors registered the biggest drop of 0.5 % although still standing high at 9.4 %
不過，由於新冠病毒變種的蔓延速度，似乎較全球接種疫苗的速度更快。
Nevertheless the spread of the coronavirus variants seems to outrun the global vaccination rate
香港本地的零確診剛剛"斷纜"，會否爆發第五波疫情仍是未知之數。
The streak of zero local infections has just ended . It is still uncertain whether a fifth wave of epidemic will break out
如果不幸發生，對各行各業的影響不容忽視，而議案提出以客觀的數據來釐定特困行業的建議，我是贊成的。
If it happens its impacts on various industries cannot be ignored . I agree with the proposal in the motion to define hard - hit industries with objective statistics
今年3月公布的最新數據，被評為最受疫情影響的5個行業與去年9月的排名已經不同，最新的五大特困行業為航空、石油及天然氣鑽探、服裝零售、家居用品零售，以及賭博業，對比去年，餐飲業及汽車零件今次已跌出首五大。
According to the latest statistics released in March this year the top five industries most impacted by the epidemic are already different from those in September last year . The latest top five hard - hit industries are airlines oil and gas drilling apparel retail home furnishing retail and casino and gaming . The restaurants and auto parts and equipment industries have dropped out of the top five
可見特困行業會隨着疫情的不同發展階段而有所不同。
It is evident that hard - hit industries do change with the different stages of the epidemic
由於每個地方的產業結構和復蘇步伐不—致，其他國家的狀況未必與香港完全相同，政府應該積極收集數據，以客觀的分析方法來辨識香港的特困行業，一旦有需要便精準扶困，援助最有需要的一群。
As the industrial structure and recovery pace vary in different places the situation in other countries may not be identical to that in Hong Kong . The Government should proactively collect statistics for objective analysis to identify the hard - hit industries in Hong Kong so as to offer targeted support to those most in need
其實，讓香港社會回復正常的經濟活動，最有效的便是香港市民接種疫苗比率達七成，達到專家所說的群體免疫功效。
In fact the most effective way for Hong Kong to resume normal economic activities is to get 70 % of the local population vaccinated so as to achieve herd immunity as mentioned by experts
很可惜的是，網絡充斥很多疫苗傳說，令不少市民擔心注射疫苗的後遺症，要依靠大抽獎來鼓勵接種。
Unfortunately the Internet is flooded with rumours about the vaccines which aroused concerns about the after - effects of vaccination . As a result we had to encourage vaccination with a lucky draw
現時香港整體注射率並不理想。
The current vaccination rate in Hong Kong is not satisfactory
個人同意政府應該在經濟層面多加支援這些特困行業，但身為特困行業的從業員，亦應該帶頭接種疫苗，務求讓香港可以盡快通關，讓各行各業早日回復生機，這才是對特困行業的最佳救助方案。
I personally agree that the Government should provide more financial support for these hard - hit industries but practitioners of the hard - hit industries should take the lead in getting vaccinated so that cross - border travel can be resumed as soon as possible and various industries can regain vitality expeditiously . This is actually the best relief for the hard - hit industries
主席，我支持姚思榮議員的原議案，以及易志明議員的修正案。
President I support the original motion of Mr YIU Si - wing and the amendment proposed by Mr Frankie YICK
代理主席，首先感謝姚思榮議員動議原議案及易志明議員動議修正案。
Deputy President first of all I would like to thank Mr YIU Si - wing for moving the original motion and Mr Frankie YICK for moving the amendment
