“Discussion & Innovative Thoughts on HK Housing: Housing Needs of HK Citizens & Living Arrangement in Improving Living Standard of Grassroot”
「香港房屋的創新思維：香港市民的居住需要及居住安排如何令基層生活問題得以改善」
Housing issues are the most important issues in Hong Kong’s people’s livelihood policies. All successive chief executives and governments have made this the most important policy arrangement. Over the years, various parties have proposed many proposals, such as the development of simple public housing, the development of the northern metropolitan area, land reclamation on Lantau tomorrow, various methods to speed up applicants to move into public housing, encouraging public housing tenants to hand over their homes, and subsidizing the sale of houses. Arrangements, etc., the government also regularly updates the long-term housing strategy, and various civil society organizations and think tanks also often make suggestions.
– What are the core issues of living in Hong Kong?
– Can each policy address specific problem areas?
– Can the current policy arrangements be integrated to solve Hong Kong’s housing and housing problems?
– Are there any innovative ways to improve the quantity and quality of housing, and use innovative thinking to make breakthrough proposals and practices?
Through this sharing and engagement, we hope that all participants can have deep communication, can be empowered by gathering knowledge, ideas and opinions, and together can act as think-tank and do-tank to create a development roadmap and better future for Hong Kong.
房屋和居住議題，是眾香港民生政策中最重要的議題，歷任特首和政府無不以此為最首要的政策安排。多年來各方提案不少，例如發展簡約公屋、發展北部都會區、明日大嶼填海做地、各種加速申請者上公屋的方法、鼓勵公屋住戶交回住宅、資助出售房屋的安排等等，政府亦定期更新長遠房屋策略，各民間團體和智庫也時常發聲作建議。
– 究竟香港的居住核心問題是甚麼?
– 各政策能否針對特定問題所在?
– 現時各政策安排整合起來能否解決香港的房屋和居住問題?
– 有甚麼創新方法去提高房屋的量和質、以創新思維去作突破性的提案和實踐?
希望藉是次分享對話讓大家交流，凝聚想法和意見，由think-tank到 do-tank，為香港創未來～
