主要原因是近兩年香港少了不禮貌對待內地旅客的事件，政府增加資源推動香港特色旅遊，使香港的旅遊業扭轉前兩年的跌勢，重拾升軌。
The main reasons are the fewer incidents of Mainland visitors being treated impolitely in Hong Kong in the past two years and also additional resources provided by the Government for promoting tourism with local characteristics thus enabling the local tourism industry to reverse the declining trend in the past two years and ride on the upswing again
今年，港珠澳大橋及廣深港高鐵將相繼開通，旅遊業更加機遇處處。
This year with the commissioning of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge HZMB and the Guangzhou - Shenzhen - Hong Kong Express Rail Link XRL opportunities will abound for the tourism industry
未來，香港與內地5小時交通圈所輻射的人口超過3億，這些也 是有消費力、具潛力的客源市場。
In future a population of over 300 million covered by the five - hour traffic circle between Hong Kong and the Mainland will be a visitor source market with spending power and potentials
其次，交通便利亦有助海外旅客通過一程多站，經香港前往周邊地區旅遊，有助過夜旅客增長。
Besides transport convenience will enable overseas visitors to travel via Hong Kong to the nearby areas through multi - destination travel and this will facilitate the growth of overnight visitors
縱然如此，我們亦不能忽視未來的隱患和挑戰。
Having said that we cannot neglect the pitfalls and challenges in future
在隱患方面，去年當日往返旅客超過3,000萬人，超過訪港旅客的一半；而海外旅客只佔總體旅客的24%，上述客源結構對香港旅遊業的健康發展不利。
With regard to the pitfalls last year there were over 30 million same - day visitor arrivals accounting for more than 50 % of the total number of visitors while overseas visitors accounted for only 24 % of the overall visitor arrivals . This structure of visitor sources is unfavourable to the healthy development of the tourism industry in Hong Kong
在挑戰方面，我們針對高消費旅客的競爭力仍有不足，海洋公園及香港迪士尼樂園分別面對橫琴海洋樂園及上海迪士尼樂園的直接競爭，郵輪則面對廣州南沙及蛇口太子灣的競爭。
In respect of challenges our competitiveness targeting visitors with high spending power remains inadequate; the Ocean Park and the Hong Kong Disneyland Disneyland face direct competition from the ocean park in Hengqin and the Shanghai Disneyland respectively; and in respect of cruise travel we face competition from Nansha in Guangzhou and the Prince Bay in Shekou . In respect of tourism support facilities the high occupancy rate and room rates of hotels will affect the desire of overseas visitors to make bookings with hotels
旅遊配套方面，酒店入住率和價格高企，影響海外旅客預訂意欲；旅遊巴泊位長期不足，難以聘請司機，影響旅行團的服務質素；本港缺乏大型會議展覽場地，限制會展旅遊的發展；本地自然景點和郊野公園富有特色，但接待條件參差，不利發展綠色旅遊和深度遊。
The persistent shortage of parking spaces for coaches and the difficulties encountered in employing drivers will affect the service quality of travel agencies . The lack of large - scale convention and exhibition venues in Hong Kong will limit the development of Meetings Incentive Conventions and Exhibitions MICE travel . While the local natural scenic spots and country parks have characteristics the varying conditions for visitor reception are not conducive to the development of green tourism and in - depth travel
針對上述問題，商務及經濟發展局制訂了《香港旅遊業發展藍圖》，將其中多項措施歸納為短、中、長期措施，以及落實計劃的時間表，這一點是值得肯定的。
To address these problems the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau has formulated the Development Blueprint for Hong Kongs Tourism Industry summing up the many measures proposed as short medium and long - term initiatives and providing a timetable for implementation . This is worthy of support
可是，藍圖大多數為短期措施，中、長期措施不多，新意亦不足夠，負責統籌的部門亦較分散。
However the Blueprint mostly contains short - term initiatives with few medium - term and long - term initiatives not to mention the lack of innovative ideas and fragmentary division of work among the departments responsible for coordination
舉例說，啟德發展區和大嶼山規劃由發展局負責、西九文化區由民政事務局負責、三跑系統由運輸及房屋局負責，而商務及經濟發展局則只負責發展迪士尼及會展等範疇。
For instance the Kai Tak Development Area and the plan on Lantau are under the purview of the Development Bureau; the West Kowloon Cultural District is the responsibility of the Home Affairs Bureau; the Third - runway System falls under the ambit of the Transport and Housing Bureau; and the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau is only responsible for such areas as the development of Disneyland convention and exhibition etc
藍圖雖然是一份旅遊規劃文件，但實際上只是把目前由各政策局所負責與旅遊相關的項目"炒埋一碟"，缺少全面發展旅遊業和整體長遠規劃的思路。
While the Blueprint is a paper on the planning of tourism it is actually a hotchpotch of tourism - related projects currently under the charge of respective Policy Bureaux without presenting comprehensive views on the development of tourism and overall planning in the long term
要訂定一份旅遊發展規劃文件，我認為應該由財政司司長從長遠提升旅遊業為發展目標和方向，制訂基建和服務水平的具體目標，由各政策局作出配合，並由商務及經濟發展局負責統籌和督促落實，這樣效果會更好。
To draw up a paper on planning of the development of tourism I think the Financial Secretary should make upgrading the tourism industry in the long term the objective and direction of development and formulate specific targets for infrastructure and service standards . The support of various Policy Bureaux should be entailed and the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau should be made responsible for coordinating and overseeing the implementation of the initiatives
目前藍圖已經制訂，我希望商務及經濟發展局在可控範圍內，將各項短期措施按該局所提出的計劃盡早完成，令香港的旅遊業發展能更上一層樓。
This way better results will be achieved . Since the Blueprint has already been formulated now I hope the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development will under controlled circumstances complete the short - term initiatives in accordance with the plan made by the Bureau as soon as possible so that the development of tourism industry in Hong Kong can scale new heights
就藍圖的內容，我有以下建議：第一是要設法提升香港國際機場中轉的功能，鞏固在區內航空樞紐的地位。
Regarding the contents of the Blueprint I have the following suggestions First it is necessary to upgrade the transit function of the Hong Kong International Airport HKIA by all means in order to consolidate its position as a regional aviation hub
多年來，香港的國際機場以國際航線選擇多、配套完善、機票價格有優勢見稱，成為海內外旅客重要的中轉站。
Over the years HKIA has been known for wide - ranging choices of international routes comprehensive matching facilities and competitive airfares and has become an important transit stop for both overseas and domestic visitors
隨着內地的經濟發展，內地的機場積極拓展國際航線，香港正面臨競爭，以廣州白雲機場為例，2011年與香港機場的直航航線重疊率為59%；在2015年，數字已經增加至68%，區內的 競爭進一步白熱化。
In tandem with economic development in the Mainland airports on the Mainland have actively developed their international routes and Hong Kong is facing competition from them . Take the Baiyun Airport in Guangzhou as an example . In 2011 59 % of HKIAs direct routes were also served by the Baiyun Airport and in 2015 the figure rose to 68 % showing increasingly fierce competition in the region
雖然香港機場面臨周邊的競爭，但隨着港珠澳大橋和廣深港高鐵通車，為香港機場擴展更多的客源，香港機場管理局已準備投資30億元興建中轉客運大樓，為通過大橋乘巴士來香港轉機的旅客提供無縫的轉機服務。
Even though HKIA faces competition from the nearby areas the commissioning of HZMB and XRL will open up more visitor sources for HKIA . The Airport Authority Hong Kong is going to invest 3 billion in the development of a transit terminal to provide seamless air transit services for passengers transiting via Hong Kong who arrived by bus through HZMB
大橋通車在即，中轉客運大樓建成也需要一段時間，我認為已不能再等待。
Given the imminent commissioning of HZMB and the fact that the completion of the transit terminal will take some time I think we can no longer wait . In the interim the authorities can consider taking short - term measures to prevent the loss of transit passengers to other airports
在過渡期內，當局可以考慮採取短期措施，設法避免轉機客人流向其他機場，例如可否利用現時海天碼頭的設施，將部分經大橋巴士轉機的旅客直接在海天碼頭辦理清關和登機手續，既可以方便這部分的轉機旅客，又可發揮分流旅客的作用，減輕客運主樓的人流和交通壓力，為未來的中轉客運大樓的服務打下基礎。
For example is it possible to make use of the existing facilities at the SkyPier to allow some transit passengers arriving by bus through HZMB to go through customs clearance and the check - in process at SkyPier direct? . This can provide convenience to these transit passengers while achieving diversion of visitors . This can ease the pressure of people flow and transport on the main passenger terminals thereby laying a foundation for the services of the transit terminal in future
第二是通過提升基礎建設，發展高質素的綠色旅遊。
Second developing quality green tourism by upgrading infrastructure development
近年香港的傳統景點面臨極大挑戰。
In recent years the traditional tourism attractions in Hong Kong have faced huge challenges
為提升競爭力，政府需要不斷投入大量的金錢。
To enhance our competitiveness it is necessary for the Government to continuously inject a large amount of funds for the purpose
以迪士尼為例，未來5年政府要投入109億元。
Take Disneyland as an example . The Government will have to inject 10.9 billion in the next five years
香港有豐富的自然資源，綠色旅遊亦是近年的熱門話題，應作為發展的重點。
Hong Kong has rich natural resources and green tourism which has been the talk of the town in recent years should be made a key area for development
所以，我建議政府可選擇試點，與地區及投資者合作，在不影響生態保育的前提下，適度地開發郊野和離島的旅遊資源。
In this connection I suggest that the Government can select some trial points and in collaboration with the districts and investors appropriately develop tourism resources in country parks and outlying islands on the premise of not compromising ecological conservation
近年來內地亦興起開發特色旅遊小鎮，由政府投資進行基礎建設，同時亦吸引有經驗的機構入駐，提升小鎮的接待能力和管理水平，發展特色的鄉郊綠色旅遊。
In recent years the development of small towns with characteristics to attract tourists has become popular in the Mainland . These towns are developed with government investment in infrastructure development and at the same time experienced corporations are also attracted there . This has enhanced the receiving capacity and standard of management of these small towns and facilitated the development of green tourism with characteristics in rural areas
新一代的特色小鎮提供有品味的住宿和餐飲服務，迎合不同階層的需要。
The new generation of small towns with characteristics provide stylish accommodation and catering services to meet the needs of different classes
我相信，香港的旅遊能夠有自己的獨特性，才可以在區內的激烈競爭中立於不敗，才可以在香港的服務業中繼續發揮至關重要的作用。
I believe it is only when tourism in Hong Kong is unique that it can rise above the fierce competition in the region and only in this way can it continue to play a vitally important role in the service sector in Hong Kong
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：田北辰議員就經姚思榮議員修正的邵家輝議員議案動議的修正案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That Mr Michael TIENs amendment to Mr SHIU Ka - fais motion as amended by Mr YIU Si - wing be passed
請各位轉往講稿第12頁。
Will Members please turn to Page 12 of the Script
我現在請郭家麒議員動議修正案。
I now call upon Dr KWOK Ka - ki to move his amendment
代理主席，我動議修正邵家輝議員的議案。
Deputy President I move that Mr SHIU Ka - fais motion be amended
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：郭家麒議員就邵家輝議員議案動議的修正案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the amendment moved by Dr KWOK Ka - ki to Mr SHIU Ka - fais motion be passed
究竟增設旅遊配套是否真的可以改善民生，還富於民呢？
and the overall economy of Hong Kong . I have reservations about this part of the motion . Will the provision of additional tourism supporting facilities really be able to improve peoples livelihood and return wealth to them?
事實上，除了業主、商戶、大財團和連鎖店集團會受惠外，這些措施怎樣真正還富於民呢？
In fact apart from benefiting the property owners shop owners big consortiums and chain stores and shops how will these measures really return wealth to the people?
怎樣還富於全港343萬名"打工仔"呢？
How will they return wealth to the 3.43 million wage earners of Hong Kong?
此外，全港有1%的"打工仔"每周工作更超過75小時，情況相當誇張。
Besides 1 % of Hong Kongs wage earners even work for more than 75 hours a week . This is really outrageous
上述數字已扣除了在港工作的外傭，亦不包括用膳時間。
When compiling the above statistics foreign domestic helpers working in Hong Kong were excluded and meal hours were discounted
當中涉及的工種，就是邵家輝議員提到的旅遊、零售、飲食和運輸等行業。
The trades and industries involved in the statistics were tourism retailing catering and transportation etc . which are mentioned by Mr SHIU Ka - fai in his motion
究竟所謂經濟得益，除了養胖了老闆外，為這些行業的勞工帶來多少健康、情緒和家庭問題呢？
Besides stuffing money into the fat purses of the bosses how many health emotional and family problems have these so - called economic benefits brought to the workers in these trades and industries?
正正是這種只講求發展、發展、再發展的思維，不知道連累了多少勞工。
It is exactly this mindset of development development and again development that has done so much harm to so many labourers
好一句"勞力是無止境"，面對無止境的慾望增長，如果不改善勞工權益，便只會繼續壓榨勞工，為老闆賺大錢而已。
It is well said that exploitation of labour knows no end . Faced with the unchecked growth of desire if labour rights are not improved labourers will only continue to be squeezed dry while their bosses reap enormous profits
我們討論發展旅遊業，經常強調要發展、提高GDP、創科化、再工業化和"一帶一路"等，但香港市民是否真的可全面受惠呢？
When we discuss the development of the tourism industry we often stress the need for development increase of GDP promotion of creativity and technology re - industrialization Belt and Road Initiative and so on . However will the Hong Kong citizens really be able to generally benefit from these developments?
如果沒有合理的勞工權益，343萬名基層工人又如何從中得益呢？
If reasonable labour rights are not guaranteed how can the 3.43 million grass - roots workers stand to benefit?
"拉動內需擴大客源"這項議案，說得坦白些，就是商界認為勞工的薪酬已包含被責罵、被剝削、加班至夜深等，全部也是必然的。
The motion Stimulating internal demand and opening up new visitor sources frankly realizes the business sectors view that the labourers wages have already paid for the rebukes and insults to which they are exposed their exploitation over - time work night shifts and so on all being part of the package
在邵家輝議員的眼中，也許根本看不到服務行業的勞工的存在。
In the eyes of Mr SHIU Ka - fai the labourers of the service sector are probably outright non - existent
為何我們看不到身邊服務我們的人是人呢？
Why can we not see that the people who are serving us are human beings?
究竟甚麼政府政策和文化制度叫我們無視別人的需要呢？
What government policies and cultural systems have blinded us from the needs of others?
正正因為有些人的眼中可能只有錢。
This is precisely because everybody has only money in his eyes
再者，除了顧及勞工權益外，本地的承受力也是一個重要考慮因素，不能輕言大幅增加旅客量。
And besides the issue of labour rights the capability of the local community to cope is also an important factor to be considered . One should not take it too lightly while talking about increasing the number of visitors by great margins
內地旅客湧港衍生的問題，官員及只重視經濟的議員與市民的切身感受經常有落差。
Regarding problems created by the inundation of Hong Kong by Mainland visitors the understanding of the government officials and Members who care only about the economy is often different from the personal experiences of the citizens
官員和商界認為只要增加設施，旅客再多也可以應付，但其實市民在過去10年已經不斷抱怨被壓榨，很擔心若旅客人數再增加，他們的生活就會受到影響，或是已經正受到影響。
Government officials and the business sector think that no matter how many more visitors come to Hong Kong we will be able to cope only if we can have more facilities . However citizens have been complaining all the time in the past decade that they have found the situation depressing . They are worried that if the number of visitors continues to increase their living will be affected―if it has not been affected already
在2014年，立法會資料研究組一項有關個人自由行研究便就此提供了答案。
In 2014 a study on the Individual Visit Scheme conducted by the Research Office of the Legislative Council provided an answer to this question
當時蘇錦樑局長只着眼於本港旅遊基建接待旅客的承受力，而研究簡報則認為社會承受力同樣重要，因為這是直接接觸市民生活的範疇。
Mr Gregory SO Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development then had his eyes fixed on the capability of Hong Kongs tourism infrastructure to receive visitors but the research brief of the Research Office held that societys capacity to cope was just as important because it impacted on the lives of the citizens direct
我們發現政府圍繞內地旅客問題的認知有偏差，這也是過去一段時間裏民怨未能紓解，反而愈見激化的原因之一。
We find that the Governments understanding of issues concerning Mainland visitors is on the wrong track . This is one of the reasons why it has not been possible to dispel the citizens dissatisfaction which has indeed intensified instead for some time in the past
代理主席，光談拉大內需，卻不關心市民......是我不能接受的。
Deputy President talking about stimulating internal demand without caring about the citizens is not acceptable to me
我想提醒議員，這項議員議案的議題是"拉動內需擴大客源"，議案及修正案的主要內容是關於旅遊業及其配套措施。
I would like to remind Members that the title of this Members motion is Stimulating internal demand and opening up new visitor sources . The main contents of this motion and the amendments are about the tourism industry and its supporting facilities
我留意到邵議員剛才發言的內容，最少有七成是與提升勞工權益有關。
I note that at least 70 % of the speech given by Mr SHIU Ka - chun just now was related to the advocation of labour rights
我不想打斷議員發言，但希望議員集中討論議案的內容，使辯論更為聚焦。
I do not wish to interrupt Members speeches but I hope Members will concentrate on the content of the motion so that the debate can be more focused
主席，今天邵家輝議員提出的議案是目前社會十分關注的議題，特別是香港政府坐擁過千億元財政盈餘和過萬億元儲備，市民當然希望當局可以推出更多改善民生的政策，還富於民，同時亦期望政府做好旅遊規劃，擴大客源，促進經濟發展。
President the motion proposed by Mr SHIU Ka - FaiI today is a topic of great concern to the community currently and particularly as the Hong Kong Government has a fiscal surplus exceeding a hundred billion dollars and a reserve of over a thousand billion dollars members of the public certainly hope that the authorities can introduce more policies to improve the peoples livelihood and return wealth to the people . In the meantime they also hope that the Government will make planning for tourism properly to open up new visitor sources thereby facilitating economic development
我相信大部分同事對原議案的原則也沒有太大的異議，但說到具體政策，便有很多可以討論的空間。
I believe most Honourable colleagues do not have any strong objection to the principles of the original motion but when it comes to the specific policies there can be plenty of room for discussion
首先，在有利民生的政策方面，大家認為最迫切的一定是住屋問題。
First of all in respect of policies beneficial to the peoples livelihood we think that housing is definitely the most pressing problem
香港樓價持續高企，單是2018年首季已錄得約5%的升幅，很多"無殼蝸牛"固然要捱貴租，更不堪的是，不少正在輪候公屋的基層市民被迫棲身於環境惡劣、座廁貼着床頭，但呎租價超高的"劏房"之中。
Property prices in Hong Kong remain on the high side on a sustained basis with an increase of about 5 % in the first quarter of 2018 alone . While many snails without shells are burdened by expensive rent it is even more undesirable that many grass - roots people on the Waiting List of Public Rental Housing are forced to live in subdivided units where the environment is deplorable and the headboard is just next to the toilet bowl and yet the rent per square feet is exorbitantly high
市民的薪金大部分用於供樓及租樓，試問有多少餘錢可增加消費，談何"拉動內需"？
A large part of the peoples wages has to be spent on mortgage repayment and rent . How much spare money do they have to afford more spending and what is the point of talking about stimulating internal demand?
大家也知道，解決問題的方法是政府應盡快增加供應，加建公營房屋，讓樓價和租金重回合理及可負擔水平，大家安居樂業後才可以有條件增加消費。
We all know that a solution to the problem is for the Government to expeditiously increase supply by developing more public housing so that property prices and rent can return to reasonable affordable levels . Only when the people live in peace and work with contentment can they have the means to increase spending
可是，政府預計未來30年最少仍欠1,200公頃土地。
However according to the forecast of the Government there will be a shortage of at least 1 200 hectares of land in the next three decades
事實上，除了住屋所需，產業發展、文娛康樂、醫療安老和教育等全部均需要土地，亦由於土地不足，各行各業也要承受昂貴的土地使用成本，窒礙發展。
In fact apart from meeting the needs of housing land is also required for the development of industries cultural and recreational facilities health care and elderly services education and so on . Given this shortage of land various trades and industries have to pay expensive costs for use of land
如何增加土地供應，雖然不是今天要討論的議題，卻是改善市民生活水平，拉動內需最重要的環節。
Their development is thus impeded . Although the question of how to increase land supply is not a topic for discussion today it is the most important factor in improving the living standard of the people and stimulating internal demand
土地供應專責小組將會提出的建議，我希望大家能理性討論，為解決土地問題尋求一個長遠可行的方案。
The Task Force on Land Supply is going to put forward proposals and I hope that Members will discuss them rationally in order to look for a feasible solution to the land problem long term
第二，說到改善民生，拉動內需，其實我們作為立法會議員也有責任。
Second speaking of improvement of the peoples livelihood and stimulating internal demand actually these are also duties required of us as Members of the Legislative Council
政府當局一直有不少投資未來的措施，促進就業，刺激經濟及內需，但這些措施交到立法會審議時，往往卻被"拉布"拖延。
The Administration has all along proposed many measures to make investment for the future promote employment and stimulate the economy and internal demand . But when these measures are tabled to the Legislative Council for deliberation they are often delayed by filibusters
事實上，上個立法年度共1,303億元的工程撥款，立法會財務委員會僅批出583億元，不足45%。
In fact the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council approved only 58.3 billion or less than 45 % of the 130.3 billion funding sought for works projects in the last legislative year
部分同事把政治與民生掛鈎，犧牲市民利益。
Some colleagues have linked politics with the peoples livelihood at the expense of public interest
今個立法年度財委會的審議工作仍然以"龜速"進行，故此我呼籲立法會同事能理性地審議項目，讓財委會發揮職能，不要再讓項目無理積壓。
In the current legislative year the deliberations of the Finance Committee have continued to be conducted at the speed of a tortoise . I therefore appeal to colleagues in the Legislative Council to scrutinize the projects in a rational manner so that the Finance Committee can perform its duties and functions and the projects would not be accumulated for no reason any longer
主席，原議案的另一部分提到增設旅遊配套設施，以提高香港接待旅客的能力和容量。
President another part of the original motion mentioned the provision of additional tourism supporting facilities to upgrade Hong Kongs visitor receiving capability and capacity
我要重申，重整旅遊政策和相關規劃，應由獨立的政策局負責，而文化、體育及旅遊政策是有潛質一併考慮的。
I have to reiterate that an independent Policy Bureau should be made responsible for reconsolidating the policy on tourism and the relevant planning and the cultural sports and tourism policies have potentials to be considered together
因 此，我過往亦曾多次建議政府當局成立文體旅遊局作統籌調配，充分發揮三者的協同效應。
In this connection I have repeatedly proposed the establishment of a Culture Sports and Tourism Bureau by the Administration to coordinate the relevant work and make deployments in order to bring the synergy of all three aspects into full play
在客源方面，從2017年訪港旅客的數據可見，內地和短途地區市場的旅客，相對於2016年分別有3.9%及2.9%的升幅，但來自長途地區的旅客則略為減少0.1%，而新興市場的旅客更大跌11.9%。
In respect of visitor sources as we can see from the statistics on visitor arrivals in 2017 visitors from the Mainland and short - haul markets recorded an increase of 3.9 % and 2.9 % respectively but visitor arrivals from long - haul markets were slightly down by 0.1 % while those from new markets even dropped significantly by 11.9 % over 2016
就此，政府當局應針對不同客群，推出不同措施，特別是一些高要求及高增值的旅客，讓他們來到香港能有更多不同的體驗，以致能更好地感受香港的文化和城市特色。
In view of this the Administration should introduce different measures targeting different clientele groups especially high - value added visitors with high expectations so that during their stay in Hong Kong they can enjoy a wider variety of experiences and better appreciate Hong Kongs culture and urban characteristics
同時，當局也應檢討個人遊、郵輪旅遊等政策，積極開拓客源。
The authorities should in parallel review the policies on the Individual Visit Scheme cruise tourism and so on with a view to actively opening up new visitor sources
此外，當局亦應檢討旅遊業的景點資源，例如盡快展開興建香港故宮文化博物館的工程、加快發展啟德旅遊中樞及在大嶼山進行的規劃研究等，並可考慮發展本地文化創意園區，以提升本地文化旅遊的層次。
Moreover the resources of tourist attractions in the tourism industry should be reviewed . For instance the construction works of the Hong Kong Palace Museum should commence expeditiously the development of a tourism hub in Kai Tak and the planning study on Lantau should be expedited and so on . Consideration can also be given to developing local cultural and creative parks in order to facilitate the upgrading of local cultural tourism
當然，在吸引新客源，進一步發展旅遊業之餘，也不能忽視旅客對本地市民生活的影響。
Certainly while efforts are made to attract new visitor sources and further the development of tourism we cannot neglect the impact caused by visitors on the living of the local people
當局必須正視旅客對各種交通工具，特別是對鐵路所構成的負荷，盡早規劃新的鐵路支線，改善交通安排。
The authorities must address squarely the burden brought by visitors on various modes of transport especially the railway and expeditiously make plans on new railway lines in order to improve the transport arrangements
對於部分內地旅行團經常到達的民生社區，當局應檢討這些地區的旅遊配套設施，特別是旅遊巴士泊位，並責成相關政府部門與旅行社及接待商戶之間建立恆常的協調措施，減低旅行團對社區帶來的影響。
The authorities should review the tourism supporting facilities especially parking spaces for coaches in local communities frequented by some Mainland tours and also instruct the relevant government departments to work with travel agencies and shops receiving visitors in devising regular coordinating measures in order to reduce the impact of these tours on the local communities
此外，原意為分流來港購物的內地客和水貨客的新田邊境購物城，據報自上月開業以來，人流十分疏落。
Besides regarding The Boxes which is a boundary shopping mall in San Tin intended to divert Mainland shoppers and parallel traders it is reported that the customer flow has been low since its opening last month
