Hey... look check it out Hong Kong Government is giving every permanent HK adult residence HK$6000 dollars.
That is approximately HK$40,500,000,000 dollars in together.
That is 425,300,000,000 Japaneses Yen.
That is 5,200,000,000 US Dollars.
3,000,000,000 in Euros.
3,200,000,000 in UK Pounds.
HK's Apparent Solution to something.... by BloombergI'm just going to say this first I'm a Hong Kong citizen 21 years old. I'm definitely one of those people.
What is the problem????
THE WHOLE FRECKING THING.
WHO IN THE WORLD GIVES $6000 to people!?!?!?!? I can only imagine that this only happens when the government realizes they have made a calculation error with their taxes in the past year. So they pay them back/
BUT THAT IS NOT THE BLOODY CASE HERE!!!!
Just look at Hong Kong, does it looks like the people living here is in trouble??
Hong Kong is not in a economic crisis, causing people NOT to spend money.
Hong Kong isn't in a war, making people to flee the country.
Hong Kong hasn't stop spending.
Hong Kong doesn't have citizen fleeing away the country, in fact more people are coming in.
So why give $6000 to EVERY HK ADULT??????
You have so many other choices that is 40.5 billion times better than this.
You want me to list them???
Well here it goes:
1. Better health care
2. Better Education
3. Promote Environmental Awareness
4. Help fund Recycling plant and companies
5. Clean up the Air
6. Clean up the Sea
Should I continue????
Yea why not...
7. Creating Hong Kong more beautiful by re-furbish HK old buildings
8. Spend more on HK research departments
9. Clear up the dump sites or improve it
10. Purchase more environmental friendly public transport
But wait there's more...
11. Fund Police, Fire, Rescue and Import & Export department
12. Fund Government improvements
14. Improve the way we use cars through gas stations and use hydrogen stations or more electrical stations
IF you ARE sticking we must give money to the HK people. Give IT TO THE PEOPLE IN NEED. People that are disabled, people that are financially troubled, people that are too old to work for themselves.
I'm just 21 years old, barely any political ideas. Simple average kind of person. And I just came up with 15-17 ideas. Come on HK!
Just think about how many people in HK have already a decent standard of living. Seriously think about it!
HK people at an average has a high the standard of living. Compare to the standard of living with people in South Africa, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, South America, Brazil. They don't have a standard that is even close be reachable to ours (at an average).
You know what we are going to do with the money???
We spend it, what for? We are going to spend that money on useless items that replaces one that you already have, which I like to add is still working perfectly fine. I.e. a new phone, or ipad or maybe a computer, tv?, games, clothing. Wait a min... don't we already have most of these?
What are we going to do with the replace items?
Throw it away of course. HK has an average of 100-300 square foot per person. Just enough room to have a wardrobe, single size bed and a tiny table. Barely enough to keep a useless item lying around. We'll just add it into the pile of dump, that is already starting to pour closer and closer to villages. HK is already small as it already is . AND you want US to spend on products that may or may not be useful?!
40.5 billion dollars, BILLION!!!!! I cant stress the word BILLION is how much.
Look....
A person cannot change a town or a city or even a country. It may start off with one person, but the person gathers people to think the same way. And those people affects others. And so on. Why can't it be the other way, why can't the bloody government an naturally established organization formed by the HK people, push us? Why can't the government start us off raise more and more awareness to making our country a better, cleaner and friendlier place?
Here's the cock block. The HK government is lazy, stupid, short brained group of people who decides on stupid ideas, because they only think what is in front instead of what is in the long run for HK. They don't see the point when they probably not going to be in this political position for long.
Those politicians only have to ability to think of ideas that monkeys think of.
You know what the worst of this? Only some of the people in HK would be complaining about this. And the rest would not because they are getting money what is there to complain about they say?
Thank you Mr John Tsang. By the way that was sarcasm if you haven't notice by now.
I'll respect you for the position, experience, and other work you have done.
But this move you did is just.... no.
You may say one of your reason is to boost HK people to support the government. But the truth of the matter is the GOVERNMENT IS MADE OUT OF THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE HERE. The government doesn't need support, the government need to have good ideas that would sustain the standard of living to every single person living in HK.
HK is always about fast, quick and getting the job done. This scheme is one too fast, and two too short to be even called a short term scheme. And it ain't doing jack sh*t. I bet once the government has paid every HK adult 6000 dollars, it would not change a bit apart from a sudden but short increase of money spent in the span of a month. That's pretty much it..... no cheers, no our government is the best, no support, just nothing.
Just think about it...
Just think about it...
