And we have people here praising Carrie for doing such a good job lol

HK is no longer a Global city but a Chinese city.

HK had a really tough time quelling riots and disorders before the onset of Covid 19.

The authorities there may prefer not to open up as peace and tranquillity is prevailing now.

Why rock the boat and risk conflagration again??

Indeed, HKG CE's sight is focused on integrating with motherland China, whereas SG is towards the world......Different strategy for good or for bad....
Personally wish they close off forever and not compete with other AP hubs, for jobs etc......
  
Here's an article from Shipping News.......
Lam declares Hong Kong can retain international aviation hub status
HONG Kong's CE Carrie Lam believes the Asian financial centre can retain its status as an international aviation hub despite its Covid-zero approach, reports Bloomberg News.
"Although the global aviation industry, with Hong Kong being no exception, has been hard hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, I remain confident that our status as an international aviation hub could be consolidated and enhanced." said Ms Lam.
Ms Lam also outlined greater cooperation with Zhuhai airport, saying the Airport Authority of Hong Kong will inject equity on the basis of market principles.
The construction of a 3,800-metre-long third runway is expected to help Hong Kong International Airport's competitiveness.
Hong Kong is also interested in establishing an aviation industrial cluster in Zhuhai in southern China that would deal with aircraft maintenance, parts manufacturing, and research on aircraft engineering.
Boeing Co recently said that China's civil aviation industry will need over 400,000 new personnel including pilots, cabin crew, and technicians by 2040, as well as 8,700 new aircraft.

its no longer Hong Kong ..its Hong kong of China... no diff to Shang hai , BeiJing etc

Hope HK remains lockdown for another 10 years if covid is still around. SG will gain!!

Bloomberg is so childish.

HK risk global status but PAP lost trust instead.

Why b so superficial like PAP to chase all sorts of rubbish?

Keep more people died for a bullshit "global status"?

White trash media are just crying foul for unable to keep their filthy white trash dream wet wet on HK anymore. lol

Don't be fooled by angmo press! HK will survive and still be prosperous- they have the Guangdong-HK-Macau Greater Bay zone ...

Singapore has what? Malaysia-Singapore-Indonesia Economic zone? Malaysia and Indonesia would have gobbled us the little red dot up even before we could say "Majulah"!

Air hub, bery hard lah … many PRCunts cities already overtook them, no need go far, Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport already way much better 

Hk got China to back up.

Look at our market, half dead. 
Nothing exciting at all.

How big is Baiyun airport compared to Changi airport?

Ive been there 2 or 3 times only.

Sg has already rotten.
Our population already aging...

HK still got great future.
一人得道，鸡犬升天。

What is the article saying....we are more willing to risk citizens' lives and health to be a global hub...?

Is that a good thing?

It's like selling your soul to get ahead and have more money....

Many Singaporeans remain poor and financially stress regardless. All this benefits mostly those who already have alot of money....and risk our elderly working poor....

In the end its money ..benefiting the corporations...

Is Bloomberg sure that Sg is good shape to open now?

Big, but still not comparable to that of Singapore. It's improving very fast though. Almost every few years I see big changes to it. The bus depot to various Chinese cities has also been expanded quite nicely.

HKG is current world largest air freight hub hor.......

I am comparing to Hong Kan lah. North Asia Air Hub and SEA Air Hub …. but then PRCunts itself big enough to have 1 hub

Another few years ….. you see a few PRCunts air freight hubs up there

Hope the mad dog above doesn't bark again, but the article is not about how SG is risking by reopening but rather where HK is going. Seems like not everyone read the article, but a quote in the article is relevant. If Covid doesn't go away for 5 years, is HK going to remain closed for 5 years? Curry lamb has no exit plan from Covid at all. HK's value to China is as a global hub. If it becomes another Chinese city, it will be just one among many.

They got umbrella we got strawberry kids.

Agree with you. That's why I'm of the opinion Carrier Lam will go down in history as one of Hk's worst leaders.

PAP very desperate like "FATT HAO".

Miss lamb has to toe the master's line n indirectly forcing the angmo who makes the most noise to leave HK.

They r no shortage of talents from mainland to replace the angmos who r mostly spies for sorrows..going all out to cause sorrows mayhem to the peace loving ordinary residents in HK

So how does this have to do with HK risks global status as compared to SG?
