Daily Question: Has Hong Kong cleared customs today? There seems to be vague news about customs clearance recently.
The Hong Kong government last week (27th) postponed the local epidemic prevention policy to November 10, and then explained that it would create favorable conditions for customs clearance.
Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor also said a few days ago: The sooner Hong Kong and the Mainland clear customs, the better. The goal now is to bring the epidemic prevention measures between the two places closer.
Indeed, the Hong Kong government's determination to clear customs can be seen from the recent frequent updates of anti-epidemic measures.
For example, starting from yesterday (November 1), the major agencies under the Hong Kong government must use "Travel with ease" to scan the code to enter!
At this stage, apart from exempt persons, there are a total of 18 types of places that must use "Travel with peace of mind" to be allowed to enter, including all museums and libraries; indoor sports premises include all gymnasiums, etc.; and outdoor places include sports fields and swimming pools.
According to Hong Kong media reports, yesterday someone used fake "Travel with peace of mind" to get through...
Police found woman arrested for using fake "Travel with peace of mind"
This kind of operation is a big ticket if caught by the police! They will also be arrested for the crime of "using false documents."
The third injection of the new crown vaccine is also on the agenda. It will start as soon as mid-November!
Immediately afterwards, the Hong Kong Government finally announced yesterday (November 1) that it will fully tighten the quarantine exemption arrangements!
Starting from November 12, the quarantine exemption arrangements will be fully tightened and the supervision of exempt persons will be strengthened.
Eliminate most exempt categories
Only the types of exemptions necessary to maintain the operation of Hong Kong society and the lives of citizens (ie cross-border truck/bus drivers, aircraft crew members, crew members of cargo ships, government personnel, etc.) are retained.
Exempt persons must comply with stringent epidemic prevention measures, including multiple regular tests.
Require foreign consulates and institutional personnel to be isolated
The personnel of foreign consulates and institutions must be quarantined in designated quarantine hotels, and they are not allowed to be quarantined at home.
The consul-general or equivalent/higher rank representatives in Hong Kong are exempt, but they are not allowed to leave the isolation place and contact the public during the home isolation period.
Strengthen the supervision of exempt persons
Government departments appoint dedicated personnel to strengthen supervision of exempt persons.
Anyone who violates the exemption conditions will be disqualified from the exemption and immediately sent to the quarantine center for compulsory quarantine. Those who violate medical supervision can be fined 5,000 yuan and imprisoned for 6 months.
Prior to this, Hong Kong's exemption groups not only hindered customs clearance in the Mainland, but also brought a lot of trouble to Hong Kong.
For example, although the family members of Saudi Arabian consuls were exempted from quarantine earlier, they went out in violation of the home quarantine order. Later, they were diagnosed with an increased risk of transmission.
Also, Nicole Kidman came to Hong Kong to exempt from isolation for filming, which aroused social concern.
Fortunately, no diagnosis was found in the follow-up. In order to clear the customs as soon as possible, this time the Hong Kong government is determined to guard against death! picture
However, the arrangement for the Hong Kong version of the "health code" has not been announced yet. What do you think about customs clearance?
