City government says it will stick to stringent anti-epidemic measures

Hong Kong’s government says it will stick to its “zero infection” strategy on Covid-19, rebuffing a plea from global banks for the city to ease its strict quarantine policy and set a clearer timeline for a return to normal or risk its status as a centre for international business.

“The government will continue to strive to reach ‘zero infection’ and sustain the various stringent and necessary anti-epidemic measures,” the spokesperson said in a statement issued by the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau. A survey by the group found that almost half of global banks and asset managers are considering moving staff and functions out of the financial hub.

The government said its strategy is working. The city has basically reached “zero infection” and the economy is showing “encouraging” signs of a recovery, it said. Hong Kong also continues to top the “normalcy index” compiled by international media, according to the statement.
