  • Hong Kong 2026-27 Budget: Driving High-quality, Inclusive Growth with Innovation and Finance

    Hong Kong 2026-27 Budget: Driving High-quality, Inclusive Growth with Innovation and Finance

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 February 2026 – Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR Government, delivered his 2026-27 Budget today (February 25), with a range of initiatives to support and diversify Hong Kong’s economic growth, boost innovation and technology (I&T), speed up development of the Northern Metropolis and proactively align with China’s National 15th Five-Year Plan.

    The theme of the 2026-27 Budget, the fourth Budget of the current-term Government, is “Driving High-quality, Inclusive Growth with Innovation and Finance”.

    Hong Kong SAR’s Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, delivers the 2026-27 Budget today (February 25)
    Hong Kong SAR’s Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, delivers the 2026-27 Budget today (February 25)

    “Over the past year, as a result of the booming economy and capital market, our tax revenue has increased. Coupled with the reinforced fiscal consolidation programme gradually bearing fruit, our public finances have improved sooner than expected,” Mr Chan said.

    The Financial Secretary revealed that Hong Kong’s Consolidated Account was expected to register a surplus of $2.9 billion in the current fiscal year, instead of a deficit of about $67 billion as originally estimated. The Operating Account for 2025-26, which was originally estimated to record a deficit of about $3 billion, will register a surplus of $51.3 billion, he said.

    It was also confirmed that Hong Kong’s economy expanded by 3.5% in 2025, with growth forecast to be between 2.5% and 3.5% for 2026.

    Mr Chan noted that this year marks the beginning of the National 15th Five-Year Plan, and he stressed the need for Hong Kong to actively align with the Plan.

    “Our country’s sustained high-standard two-way opening-up, coupled with scientific and technological innovation, have presented us with new opportunities,” he said. “We must embrace the 15th Five-Year Plan with an innovative mindset, fostering new quality productive forces in accordance with local conditions.”

    Mr Chan set out a series of measures to drive I&T development, including establishing the Committee on AI+ and Industry Development Strategy; taking forward the Sandy Ridge data facility cluster project; promoting AI training; and accelerating digital intelligence transformation of the Government.

    “We are pressing ahead with the industrialisation of AI and deepening its integration across various industries, while encouraging wider AI application, thereby achieving the target of adoption and utilisation by all,” he said.

    The International Clinical Trial Academy will, he said, also be established to help enable the Chinese Mainland’s biomedicine technology to go global, attract foreign investment, and help develop Hong Kong into an international health and medical innovation hub.

    To facilitate the development of new industrialisation, the Budget has earmarked resources for establishing in Hong Kong the first national manufacturing innovation centre outside the Mainland, and the New Industrialisation Elite Enterprises Nurturing Scheme will be launched.

    The Government will promote the full integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation through key infrastructure, including the Hong Kong Park of the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Co-operation Zone, and the San Tin Technopole in the Northern Metropolis.

    To support financial services, Hong Kong will proactively align with national development strategies, advance the internationalisation of the Renminbi, and continuously reform the securities market.

    The Government will legislate this year to enhance tax regimes for family offices and funds, as well as establish licensing regimes for digital asset dealing and custodian service providers.

    “Despite the complex and ever-changing external environment, Hong Kong’s financial market has performed strongly and our financial system remains robust,” Mr Chan said. “We will continue to consolidate our existing strengths, tap into emerging fields, strengthen market systems and risk control and deepen financial co-operation in the GBA (Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area).”

    Noting that Hong Kong saw a year-on-year 12 per cent increase in visitor arrivals last year, which had created business and job opportunities for related sectors, the Budget will allocate $1.66 billion (US$212 million) to the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB).

    “The HKTB will scale up its flagship events and promotion, introducing new elements and extending event duration, and organise more signature festive events to highlight Hong Kong’s East-meets-West uniqueness,” Mr Chan said.

    The Budget also earmarks an additional funding of $1 billion (US$128 million) for the Built Heritage Conservation Fund to enrich city culture. Elsewhere, the Government will launch the Northern Metropolis Urban-rural Integration Fund as a pilot scheme to support rural tourism projects.

    To further promote sports development in Hong Kong, the Financial Secretary will inject $1.2 billion (US$154 million) to the sports portion of the Arts and Sports Development Fund.

    Mr Chan said that the global environment has remained volatile over the past year, and Hong Kong has continued to undergo economic transformation.

    “Technological innovation, in particular the development of AI, has brought us a mix of opportunities and challenges. Yet, Hong Kong has always thrived amid changes and progressed through innovation. We must make full use of our strengths and leverage the resolute support of our country to speed up and scale up our economic development sustainably for creating better development opportunities for the people and enhancing their quality of life,” Mr Chan said.

  • International Entertainment Corporation’s FY2025/26 Interim Revenue Increases by 71.5% to HK$458.9 Million

    Driving Sustained Growth in Gaming and Hospitality via Strategic Renovation

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 February 2026 – International Entertainment Corporation (the “Company“, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group“; HKEX stock code: 1009), is pleased to announce that its revenue for the six months ended 31 December 2025 (the “Period“) recorded a significant period-on-period increase of 71.5% to approximately HK$458.9 million. This notable growth was primarily driven by a rise in land-based casino revenue and increased commission income resulting from provision of gaming platform to other authorised gaming operators for gaming business during the Period.

    Meanwhile, the Group reported gross profit of approximately HK$245.0 million, representing a remarkable increase of 169.4% as compared with approximately HK$90.9 million in the six months ended 31 December 2024 (the “Previous Period“). Gross profit margin for the Period was approximately 53.4%, up 19.4 percentage points from approximately 34.0% for the Previous Period, mainly due to the increase in commission income with higher gross profit margin. The Group narrowed its loss by 9.7% to approximately HK$85.8 million during the Period (Previous Period: loss of approximately HK$95.0 million).

    Future Outlook

    The Group remains optimistic about the long-term prospects of the Philippine gaming and tourism industries, underpinned by its advantageous geographical position in Southeast Asia and growing popularity as a premier travel destination.

    The Group commenced a renovation initiative in the previous financial year. An operational milestone was reached in January 2026 with the completion of renovation works on the casino’s ground floor. This project successfully expanded the gaming space, increasing the number of gaming tables from 99 to 116 tables as well as increasing the number of slot machines and electronic gaming machines from 517 to 664 machines by the end of January 2026. With further facility upgrades scheduled for completion, the Group anticipates a grand reopening of the hotel in July 2026. These enhancements are designed to elevate the overall guest experience, thereby driving higher occupancy rates and fostering sustained revenue growth across both gaming and hospitality segments in the long term.

    Separately, the Group entered into a Subscription Agreement on 17 November 2025 with DigiPlus Interactive Corp., a leader in the Philippine casino and gaming sector as well as a Fortune Southeast Asia 500 company. Subject to approval at the extraordinary general meeting on 26 February 2026, the Group will issue up to HK$1.6 billion convertible notes with a maturity of five years and an interest rate of 3% per annum, which is expected to significantly bolster the Group’s liquidity and long-term financial position.

    Part of the net proceeds will be used to fund the Group’s Investment Commitment, which currently includes capital investments for acquisition of land for the expansion of its integrated resort in Manila City and the construction of additional hotel rooms, for provision of other amenities of the integrated resort, and for ongoing upgrades, refurbishments and renovations to the facilities and infrastructures of both the hotel and the casino.

    With the above initiatives in place, the Group is strategically positioned to navigate the evolving Philippine gaming and tourism landscape, leveraging its bolstered capital, expanded gaming capacity, and enhanced hotel facilities to capitalize on emerging business opportunities and create greater sustainable, long-term value for its shareholders.

  • 戴德梁行就2026/27年度財政預算案作以下回應

    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年2月25日 –
    戴德梁行大中華區首席執行官及環球董事趙錦權先生就2026/2027年度財政預算案以下議題作出回應：

    以錨機構與清晰分工，提升北部都會區落地效率

    政府提及將進一步推動在北都持有土地的發展商，聯同科技或先進製造企業向政府提出合作發展方案。本行認為，在北都推動公私營合作模式，可提升執行效率及減輕政府財政壓力，有助加快及落實北都發展，亦能善用市場效率與創新能力。不過，其關鍵亦在於政府如何清晰界定公共與商業角色，確保長遠產業發展目標、土地用途及回報分配的透明度，以吸引私人市場參與。若配合清晰規劃、分階段落實及嚴謹監管，公私營合作模式將能成為推動北部都會區產業化的重要工具。

    如我們早前亦在研究報告提出，政府可考慮鎖定及引入戰略性的「錨機構」，並避免各個片區產業功能模糊的局面，以確立片區定位和提升片區吸引力，期望政府能盡快落實並公布相關大學及科技產業進駐的細節，增強發展商對於落戶北都及片區開發的信心。同時，本行樂見政府采納本行早前建議，落實北都地價繳付彈性安排，有助紓緩企業開發土地的現金流壓力，提升公私營合作模式與產業導入的可行性與速度。

    建議善用強積金資產拓寬北都融資渠道

    本行支持政府提高兩個債券計劃的借款上限至9,000億元，為北部都會區發展融資，未來亦將發行更多較長期的債券，以更配合現金流年期與工程項目的資金配置。然而，除了向市場直接發債，本行建議可從更宏觀的資產配置角度，善用龐大的強積金資金池。根據積金局數據，截至2025年12月底，強積金總資產升至約1.55萬億元，突破歷史新高。政府可考慮適度放寬強積金投資限制，容許運用一定比例資產（例如10%）投資於北部都會區發展的長期債券。此舉既能為北都建設提供穩定的資金來源，亦能為強積金成員提供多一個風險相對較低、回報較為穩定的投資選項，達致雙贏局面。

    房屋供應

    政府來年的賣地表供應量，以及未來三至四年一手私人住宅潛在供應量，均顯示土地及房屋供應趨穩定。我們建議政府應同時簡化招標條款，並把土地有序地推出市場，以吸引更多不同發展商參與競投，激活市場。

    建議協助「簡樸房」居民安置

    「簡樸房」規管制度預計於今年3月1日生效，過渡安排為期四十八個月，屆時或有部分單位不符要求，導致居民需要遷出，加上全港樓齡逾50年的舊型公共屋邨約有2.7萬個單位，重建安置壓力巨大。本行認為，市區重建策略應具備彈性及財務可持續性，政府需制定清晰的安置優先次序，合理分配有關單位予受影響居民、舊屋邨租戶及輪候冊人士。

    針對市建局目前的收購模式，現行以接近一手住宅物業價格（包含自置居所津貼）進行收購的機制，往往令局方面臨沉重的財政負擔。對此，本行建議政府深入優化「樓換樓」機制，以減輕現金賠償的壓力。具體而言，我們期望政府能探討將新發展區，如將軍澳等的土地撥予市建局或相關機構，專門用作非原區安置的「樓換樓」用途。此外，現行的「七年樓齡」補償基準雖有其依據，但政府不妨考慮向舊樓業主提供更具吸引力的換樓條件，以此作為誘因，加速搬遷流轉。

    我們相信此舉不僅能有效減少重建初期的龐大現金支出，紓緩市建局的流動資金壓力，更能在重建項目落成並售出後，讓資金回流以支持後續項目，從而建立一個資金良性循環的可持續重建模式。

    戴德梁行香港董事總經理蕭亮輝先生就2026/2027年度財政預算案以下議題作出回應：

    港投公司與市場資本合作有助優質商業物業項目發展

    我們同意政府因應市場供求情況，來年繼續不推售一般商業用地的措施。截至去年第四季末為止，本港整體甲廈待租率約20.3%，暫緩推售商業地可讓市場逐漸消化現時空置樓面有助穩定寫字樓市場，惟政府宜定期檢視市場情況，適時重售商業地塊。

    至於港投公司與市場資本合作，引導資金投向符合香港產業定位的優質商業物業項目，並把項目與目標行業的企業對接，整體方向正面，並符合市場化的原則。此舉不但可改善項目與企業之間的對接效率，為創科、醫療科研等新興產業提供更合適的項目，同時可為商用物業板塊注入新需求。

    沙嶺數據中心用地強化香港數據樞紐地位

    政府提速推動人工智能產業化，鼓勵人工智能的廣泛應用及與各行業深度融合，長遠對於數據中心的算力需求將大幅提升，帶動本地對高規格數據中設施的吸納能力。

    至於沙嶺數據中心用地提供逾250萬平方呎樓面面積，相對於目前全港數據中心約1000萬平方呎總存量約25%，屬近年罕有的大型供應。若項目稍後成功批出，將為本港人工智能發展提供高電力容量及基礎設施，長遠將有助提升香港於大灣區及亞洲的數據樞紐地位。

    鞏固國際航運樞紐靈活應對企業於物流用地的需要

    政府提出配合國家航運戰略、推動香港國際航運中心升級，並加快物流業智慧化及拓展貨源腹地，並預留約三十二公頃土地於洪水橋/廈村新發展區發展現代物流圈，此舉有助進一步鞏固香港作為國際航運樞紐角色。

    然而，我們認為政府在建設現代物流產業園區時，應以市場導向、企業為本，靈活應對企業的需要並加以配合，同時提供不同優惠，以吸引企業進駐。

    多元化措施和持續撥款帶動本地零售消費及商舖市場

    我們樂見政府推出多元化措施和持續撥款，全方位推動本港展覽業、獎勵旅遊、活化歷史建築、國際郵輪、體育盛事、海濱優化工程及「城鄉共融」計劃等多個層面。透過這些具針對性且豐富的活動，不僅能吸引不同目標及消費能力的旅客來港，拓寬客源，同時亦有助全面提升旅遊業的競爭力。我們相信，上述舉措將推動高增值經濟活動的發展，並進一步帶動本地零售消費及商舖市場的活躍，為整體經濟注入更多動力，實現長遠效益。

    我們對中長期本港的商舖租金持樂觀態度，相信隨著政策的逐步落實及旅遊業的進一步提升，商舖租金將出現更正面的變化。

    戴德梁行執行董事及香港研究部主管鄧淑賢女士就2026/2027年度財政預算案以下議題作出回應：

    善用土地資源推動學生宿舍發展

    隨著各項人才入境計劃、北都大學城規劃及吸引全球優秀學生來港就學的政策推進，市場對住宅及學生宿舍的需求預期將持續上升。發展局早前公布把啟德、沙田小瀝源及東涌東三幅商業用地改劃為專上教育學生宿舍用途，預計可提供約4,500個宿位；對於本次預算案進一步落實相關政策，有助有效紓解宿位短缺，長遠亦可緩和住宅租金壓力，利好樓市健康發展。惟學生宿舍項目不可拆售且回本期較長，建議政府在賣地條款上提供適度誘因，例如優先選址於鄰近專上院校的地段，並在補地價或招標條款上給予更大彈性，以吸引發展商積極參與。

    北都大學用地

    政府在北部都會區大學城發展中，透過批出三幅位於洪水橋／厦村的新發展用地，並以貸款形式預留一百億元支持校舍建設，充分展現加快推動高等教育及『留學香港』政策的決心，有助進一步提升香港作為區域教育樞紐的整體吸引力。期望洪水橋／厦村在引入學生及校舍用地的同時，能與該片區既有的產業發展方向與功能定位緊密結合，產生協同效應，並與日後於牛潭尾推出的教育用地形成清晰分工、互補發展。

    戴德梁行執行董事及香港資本市場部主管高偉雄就2026/2027年度財政預算案以下議題作出回應：

    調整投資移民政策吸納國際資本

    本行支持政府持續加強海內外招才引智，但本次未見就協助來港人才在港置業提出具體安排。我們建議適度下調投資門檻，並擴闊合資格投資物業範圍，毋須僅限於非住宅物業，亦可審慎將部分住宅物業納入計算。同時，建議檢視外來投資者在銀行融資與按揭方面的限制，提升資金運用與流轉的靈活性，以吸引更多國際資本與高端人才長期落戶香港。

    建議政府審慎調整豪宅稅率

    對於政府提高一億元以上的住宅物業交易印花稅稅率，基於「能者多付」原則，本行認爲是次調整仍屬理性水平，但短期內難免導致部分潛在買家暫緩入市。不過，我們相信待市場作出調整後，香港豪宅市場交投仍能夠維持熱度。我們寄語政府未來應繼續審慎調整豪宅稅率，以免削弱香港房地產市場的吸引力。Hashtag: #Cushman&Wakefield

  • Response to the Budget 2026/2027 by Cushman & Wakefield

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 February 2026 –
    Response to the Budget 2026/2027 by KK Chiu, International Director, Chief Executive, Greater China, Cushman & Wakefield:

    Enhancing Implementation Efficiency in the Northern Metropolis through Anchor Institutions and Clear Role Definition

    In the Budget, the Government mentioned that it will further encourage developers holding land in the Northern Metropolis to collaborate with technology or advanced manufacturing enterprises in submitting joint development proposals. At C&W, we believe that introducing a public–private partnership model can enhance execution efficiency and help alleviate fiscal pressure, thereby accelerating the implementation of the Northern Metropolis development while leveraging market efficiency and innovation capabilities. However, the key lies in how clearly the Government defines public and commercial roles, and ensures transparency in long-term industry objectives, land use and return allocation, in order to attract private sector participation. Subject to clear planning, phased implementation and prudent regulation, the PPP model can become an important tool in advancing the industrialisation of the Northern Metropolis.

    As noted in our earlier research, the Government may consider securing strategic “anchor institutions” and avoiding blurred industrial positioning across different precincts, so as to establish clear district identities and enhance overall attractiveness. We hope the Government will announce details of university and technology industry participation as soon as possible to strengthen developers’ confidence in advancing projects within the district. At the same time, we welcome the Government’s adoption of our earlier recommendation to introduce flexible arrangements for land premium payment in the Northern Metropolis. This will help alleviate cash flow pressures for enterprises undertaking land development, and enhance the feasibility and pace of public–private partnerships and industry introduction initiatives.

    Suggest to Leverage MPF Assets to Broaden Financing Channels for the Northern Metropolis

    We support the Government’s proposal to increase the borrowing ceiling of the two bond programmes to HK$900 billion to finance the development of the Northern Metropolis, and to issue more longer-term bonds to better align with cash flow requirements and capital deployment for infrastructure works. Beyond direct bond issuance, we suggest that, from a broader asset allocation perspective, the Government could make better use of the sizeable Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) asset pool. According to MPFA data, total MPF assets reached approximately HK$1.55 trillion as at end-December 2025, a record high. The Government may consider moderately relaxing MPF investment restrictions to allow a certain proportion of assets (for example, 10%) to be invested in long-term bonds issued for Northern Metropolis development. This would provide a stable source of funding for the Northern Metropolis while offering MPF members an additional investment option with relatively lower risk and stable returns, creating a win-win outcome.

    Land and Housing Supply

    The land sale programme for the coming year, together with the projected supply of first-hand private residential units in the next three to four years, indicates that land and housing supply is stabilising. We recommend that the Government streamline tender conditions and release sites to the market in an orderly manner to attract broader developer participation and revitalise market sentiment.

    Suggest to Assist “Basic Housing Unit” Residents with Rehousing

    The regulatory regime for “Basic Housing Units” is expected to take effect on 1 March this year, with a 48-month transitional period. Some units may fail to meet the new requirements, potentially resulting in tenant displacement. In addition, there are approximately 27,000 units in public rental housing estates aged over 50 years, creating significant rehousing pressure. We consider that the urban renewal strategy should be flexible and financially sustainable. The Government should establish clear rehousing priorities and allocate units reasonably among affected residents, tenants of old estates and applicants on the waiting list.

    Under the Urban Renewal Authority’s prevailing acquisition approach, compensation based on prices comparable to first-hand residential properties (including owner-occupier allowances) has imposed substantial financial pressure. We therefore recommend further optimisation of the “flat-for-flat” mechanism to alleviate cash compensation burdens. Specifically, the Government could explore allocating land in new development areas, such as Tseung Kwan O, to the Urban Renewal Authority or related bodies for non-local rehousing under the “flat-for-flat” arrangement. While the current “seven-year-old flat” compensation benchmark has its basis, the Government may also consider offering more attractive exchange terms to older building owners as an incentive to expedite relocation and redevelopment progress.

    We believe that such measures would not only reduce the substantial upfront cash outlay at the initial stage of redevelopment and ease liquidity pressure on the Urban Renewal Authority but also enable capital recycling upon project completion and sale, thereby establishing a financially sustainable urban renewal model with a virtuous funding cycle.

    Response to the Budget 2026/2027 by John Siu, Managing Director, Hong Kong, Cushman & Wakefield:

    Collaboration between the Hong Kong Investment Corporation and Market Capital to Support Quality Commercial Property Development

    We agree with the Government’s decision, having regard to prevailing market supply and demand conditions, to continue refraining from the sale of commercial sites in the coming year. As at the end of the fourth quarter last year, the overall availability rate of Grade A offices in Hong Kong stood at approximately 20.3%. The temporary suspension of commercial land sales will allow the market to gradually absorb existing vacant floor space and help stabilise the office market. Nevertheless, the Government should review market conditions regularly and resume the sale of commercial sites in a timely manner when appropriate.

    Regarding collaboration between the Hong Kong Investment Corporation and market capital to guide funds towards quality commercial property projects aligned with Hong Kong’s industry positioning, and to facilitate matching between such projects and enterprises in target sectors, we consider the overall direction to be positive and consistent with market-oriented principles. This approach can enhance the efficiency of matching projects with enterprises, provide more suitable premises for emerging industries such as innovation and technology and medical research, and inject new demand into the commercial property sector.

    Sandy Ridge data facility cluster to enhance Hong Kong’s data hub position

    The Government has accelerated efforts to promote the industrialisation of artificial intelligence (AI), encouraging its wider adoption and deeper integration across industries. Over the longer term, this will substantially increase demand for computing power, thereby strengthening local absorption capacity for high-specification data centre facilities.

    Regarding the proposed data facility cluster at Sandy Ridge, which will provide over 2.5 million square feet of gross floor area, this represents approximately 25% of Hong Kong’s existing data centre stock of around 10 million square feet, marking a rare large-scale supply in recent years. Should the project be successfully tendered, it will provide the high-power capacity and infrastructure necessary to support AI development, and in the longer term enhance Hong Kong’s position as a data hub within the Greater Bay Area and across Asia.

    Strengthening Hong Kong’s Position as an International Maritime Hub and Responding Flexibly to Logistics Land Needs

    The Government has proposed supporting the national maritime strategic development, advancing the elevation of Hong Kong’s status as an international maritime centre, and accelerating the smart transformation of the logistics industry as well as the expansion of cargo hinterland. The reservation of approximately 32 hectares of land in the Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area for the development of a modern logistics hub will further help consolidate Hong Kong’s role as an international maritime centre. However, we consider that in developing a modern logistics industry park, the Government should adopt a market-oriented, enterprise-centred approach, in order to respond flexibly to the needs of businesses and offer appropriate incentives to attract enterprise participation.

    Diversified Policies and Continuous Investment to Energise Retail Consumption and Leasing Market

    We welcome the Government’s introduction of diversified initiatives and continued funding to promote Hong Kong’s exhibition industry, incentive travel, revitalisation of historic buildings, international cruise development, major sports events, harbourfront enhancement works and the “urban-rural integration” initiatives. Through these targeted and wide-ranging programmes, Hong Kong will be able to attract visitors of different segments and spending power, broaden its visitor base and enhance the overall competitiveness of the tourism industry. We believe these measures will drive the development of high value-added economic activities, further stimulate local retail consumption and invigorate the shop leasing market, thereby injecting additional momentum into the overall economy and delivering long-term benefits.

    We remain optimistic about the medium- to long-term outlook for retail rents in Hong Kong. As the relevant policies are progressively implemented and tourism continues to strengthen, we expect retail rents to show more positive adjustments.

    Response to the Budget 2026/2027 by Rosanna Tang, Executive Director, Head of Research, Hong Kong of Cushman & Wakefield:

    Optimising Land Resources to Promote Student Hostel Development

    With the implementation of various talent admission schemes, the planning of the Northern Metropolis University Town, and policies aimed at attracting outstanding students from around the world to study in Hong Kong, demand for residential accommodation and student hostels is expected to continue rising.

    The Development Bureau earlier announced the rezoning of three commercial sites in Kai Tak, Siu Lek Yuen in Sha Tin and Tung Chung East for post-secondary student hostel use, which are expected to provide around 4,500 hostel places. The further implementation of relevant measures in this Budget will help alleviate the shortage of hostel places and, in the longer term, ease rental pressure in the residential market, supporting the healthy development of the property market.

    However, as student hostel projects are not permitted for strata-title sale and typically involve a longer payback period, we recommend that the Government provide appropriate incentives in the land sale conditions. For example, priority could be given to sites located near post-secondary institutions, and greater flexibility could be offered in land premium arrangements or tender terms to encourage active participation by developers.

    Northern Metropolis University Town

    Regarding development of Northern Metropolis University Town, the Government has demonstrated its commitment to expediting the development of higher education and advancing the “Study in Hong Kong” initiative by granting three sites in the Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area and earmarking HK$10 billion in loans to support campus construction. This will help further enhance Hong Kong’s overall attractiveness as a regional education hub.

    We hope that, as student intake and campus sites are introduced into Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen, they will be closely aligned with the district’s industry positioning and functional roles, generating synergy. At the same time, a clear division of roles and complementary development should be established with future education sites to be launched in Ngau Tam Mei.

    Response to the Budget 2026/2027 by Tom Ko, Executive Director, Head of Capital Markets, Hong Kong of Cushman & Wakefield:

    Adjustments to Investment Immigration Policy to Draw Global Capital

    We support the Government’s continued efforts to strengthen talent admission from both Mainland and overseas markets. However, this year’s Budget did not set out concrete measures to assist incoming talent in acquiring properties in Hong Kong. We recommend a calibrated adjustment of the investment threshold and an expansion of the categories of qualifying investment properties. Instead of restricting investment solely to non-residential assets, the Government could consider prudently incorporating selected residential properties into the scope.

    At the same time, we propose a review of the banking and mortgage restrictions applied to non-local investors, with a view to enhancing flexibility in capital deployment and circulation. These refinements would help attract additional international capital and high‑calibre talent to establish a long‑term presence in Hong Kong.

    Prudent Adjustment of Stamp Duty on Luxury Residential Properties

    Regarding the Government’s increase in stamp duty on residential property transactions exceeding HK$100 million, and in line with the “affordable users pay” principle, we consider the adjustment to remain at a rational level. Nevertheless, in the short term, it may lead some potential buyers to defer their purchasing decisions. We believe that once the market has adjusted, transaction momentum in the luxury residential segment should remain resilient. We would encourage the Government to continue exercising prudence in adjusting stamp duty rates on luxury properties, so as not to undermine the overall attractiveness of Hong Kong’s property market.

  • China’s Dairy Serves Overseas Winter Olympics for the First Time Mengniu’s “World-Class Quality” Nourishes Global Athletes’ Drive to Excel

    MILAN, ITALY – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 February 2026 – From February 7 to 23, 2026, during the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games, Mengniu Group, as a Worldwide Olympic Partner (TOP), has introduced three specially crafted dairy products—pure milk, yogurt, and butter—into the Milan Olympic Village. These products provide high-quality nutritional support to athletes, coaches, and staff from around the world. This marks the first time China’s dairy industry has served an overseas Winter Olympic Games. Mengniu is the only Chinese dairy enterprise supplying products for this Winter Games, once again demonstrating its world-class product quality and its strong capability to lead China’s dairy industry onto the global stage.

    The second "China Night" event, hosted by Mengniu Group and guided by the Chinese Olympic Committee, was held in Milan

    Notably, during the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games, the second “China Night” event, hosted by Mengniu Group and guided by the Chinese Olympic Committee, was held on the evening of February 7 in Milan. The event, themed “China Night, Light of the Five Rings,” aimed to unite Chinese sports culture, promote the Olympic spirit, and foster international cultural exchange and mutual learning. Speeches were delivered by International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Coventry, Chinese Olympic Committee Deputy Secretary-General and Director of Market Development Yu Jianyong, and Mengniu Group President Gao Fei. Attendees included IOC Executive Board Member and Chinese Olympic Committee Vice President Li Lingwei, IOC Member Zhang Hong, Asian Olympic Council Athletes’ Commission Chair Ding Ning, TCL Technology CEO Wang Cheng, Alibaba Olympic Marketing Department General Manager Xie Long, as well as representatives from sports, culture, business, and media sectors.

    “‘China Night’ has become a bridge for promoting sports and cultural exchange, which is the essence of the Olympic Games: bringing people together and building mutual understanding,” said Bach in his speech. Coventry added that her 2025 visit to Mengniu deeply impressed her with their shared values. Looking ahead, he expressed his commitment to continue partnering with Mengniu to advocate the Olympic spirit through healthy products, sustainable development, and a passion for sports and culture, and he looks forward to the next “China Night” event at the Los Angeles Olympics.

    Mengniu Group President Gao Fei stated that sports and milk are natural allies. Mengniu’s corporate spirit of “Born to Excel” resonates perfectly with the Olympic motto “Faster, Higher, Stronger—Together.” Mengniu aims not only to bring healthy, nutritious products to the Olympic arena but also to extend its corporate responsibility and commitment worldwide, further promoting the Olympic spirit.

    As the world’s first dairy TOP partner, Mengniu leverages its solid product strength and outstanding quality to provide comprehensive nutritional support for the Olympics. At the Milan Olympic Village, Mengniu Group offers three dairy products—milk, yogurt, and butter—ensuring high-quality nutrition for athletes, coaches, and staff from around the globe.

    Mengniu's three products (whole milk, lactose-free simple yogurt, butter) serving the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games

    Mengniu has supplied three products to the Olympic Village: whole milk, lactose-free simple yogurt, and butter. These three complementary dairy categories cover athletes’ basic nutritional needs while also catering to the personalized requirements of special groups, fully realizing the goal of “drinking milk, drinking good milk, and drinking the right milk” for athletes. When China’s dairy innovation meets the Olympic spirit of striving for excellence, a mutual journey of “breakthrough” shines brilliantly on the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games stage.

    This cultural expression through paper-cutting art aligns perfectly with Mengniu’s brand story told to the world. On the occasion of the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games opening, Mengniu released the opening theme film “Opening” under the slogan “Crossing Thousands of Mountains and Seas, Together for the Winter Olympics.” The film invites billions of viewers worldwide to experience the warmth of Chinese New Year reunions on the global stage of ice and snow sports, jointly witnessing the mutual pursuit of “excellence” and “togetherness.” The “Opening” film uses the snowy landscape as paper and ice sports as the carving tool to create Chinese paper-cut art. With lively morin khuur (horsehead fiddle) and throat singing, it features Mengniu brand ambassadors—Eileen Gu, Jia Ling, Xiao Zhan, and Jackson Yee—conveying the spirit of “Born to Excel.” The film cleverly connects scenes of the grasslands, the Great Wall, the Leaning Tower, and the sports venues, symbolizing Mengniu’s journey from grassland cattle and Chinese cattle to world-class cattle in its pursuit of excellence. Released at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic Games opening, this theme film once again showcases the style and responsibility of Chinese brands to the world. “Born to Excel” shines like a radiant spiritual totem, adding a moving Eastern echo to the long history of the Olympics.

    The Milan chapter of “China Night” concluded successfully, while a new chapter of dialogue between Chinese brands and the world has just begun. Looking ahead, Mengniu will inspire perseverance through the light of sports, connect hearts through the light of culture, and illuminate the future through the light of sustainability. With this warm and powerful “Light of China,” Mengniu aims to contribute even greater strength to the global development of the Olympic movement.

  • 香港会计师公会欢迎政府2026-27年度《财政预算案》

    香港会计师公会欢迎政府2026-27年度《财政预算案》

    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年2月25日 – 香港会计师公会欢迎政府今日发表的 2026–27 年度《财政预算案》。公会认为，预算案的建议具体务实，加快香港经济转型，巩固香港作为世界顶级金融市场品牌，同时接轨国家“十五五”规划以配合国家发展。
    公会乐见预算案采纳多项公会早前提出的建议，包括推动数字化、人工智能（AI）及量子计算应用、提供税务优惠推动包括黄金贸易的大宗商品交易、优化研发（R&D）开支的扣税安排、放宽家族办公室可获税务宽减的合资格投资、透过优化购入知识产权扣税限制，支持知识产权（IP）产业发展、修改印花税条例放宽集团内部宽免限制、支持人民币国际化、推出措施支持内地企业以香港作为“走出去”的平台、上调个人及已婚人士免税额，以及推动“银发经济”。
    公共财政前景逐步改善
    财政司司长公布2025-2026年度预计录得29亿港元财政盈余，较公会早前估算稍为理想。数字较去年的预算案估算大幅改善，主要受惠于股市畅旺带动相关印花税收入以及利得税和薪俸税增加。同时，由于卖地收入仍逊于预期以及持续投资于大型基建项目，使资本帐目仍然录得赤字。鉴于香港负债占本地生产总值的比率仅为大约14.4%，远低于大部份先进经济体，加上拥有约6,600亿港元的财政储备，及香港金融管理局管理超过 4 万亿港元的外汇基金资产，香港目前的财政状况仍然稳健。
    全国政协委员、香港会计师公会会长罗卓坚表示：“我们整体欢迎预算案提出的措施，当中不少与公会建议方向一致，有助提升香港的长远竞争力。同时，我们也乐见公共财政前景逐步改善，期望政府继续在审慎理财与投资未来之间取得平衡，带动经济与政府收入稳步增长，让市民共同分享经济成果。另一方面，面对日益激烈的全球竞争，政府也应与各界合作，全面提升金融市场，包括丰富投资产品选择，巩固香港国际金融中心地位。”
    提升税制、增加收入
    公会欢迎预算案建议成立税务政策咨询委员会，研究透过提升香港税务政策支持经济发展及提升香港竞争力。长远而言，公会期望政府借此机会更全面检视香港税制及探讨新收入来源的可能方案，确保税务制度的完整性，使香港公共财政长远维持稳健及可持续。公会的建议中提及更多增加收入的措施，包括建议向经陆路口岸入境的私家车征收边境建设费，以收回基建及运营成本；为小型企业、网店及关键意见领袖（KOLs）提供限时“税务赦免”安排，让这些业务自愿披露税务责任，同时推出税务合规的教育计划。
    政府整合财政计划
    财政司司长宣布继续落实财政整合策略，于2026-27及2027-28年度内每年节省政府经常开支2%，公务员编制于上述两个财政年度每年削减2%。公会同意政府继续遵循“审慎理财”原则，以检视政府开支水平。公会建议政府继续透过简化运作以节省成本，同时应尽可能将公共开支优先用于可惠及社会、带动增长的领域。另一方面，对于预算案建议恢复进行薪酬趋势调查，研究调整公务员薪酬，公会认为决定合理，温和的加薪幅度对公共财政影响有限，同时提振公务员士气，为整体劳动市场带来正面作用。
    发债支持大型基建发展
    预算案公布继续透过发债计划支持大型基建发展。公会指出，政府透过发债支持大型基建项目的资金需要在国际间也很常见。同时，香港政府的负债占本地生产总值的比例就国际标准而言仍属非常低的水平，相信不会动摇投资者对香港财政状况的信心。除发债外，公会认为政府也可以继续探讨透过公私营合作及“建设—经营—移交”（BOT）方式推动部分基建发展。
    纾困措施
    随政府财政状况回稳，公会支持预算案为纳税人士及市民所提供的纾困措施，包括将宽减2025-26年度100%薪俸税及利得税，上限为3,000港元，以及首两季差饷宽免的上限定为500港元、提高个人免税额至145,000港元，已婚人士、子女及供养父母免税额也进行了上调。
    香港会计师公会税务师会执行委员会主席杨泽志指出：“预算案建议的纾困措施，有望使纳税人受惠，减轻市民财政负担。我们欢迎政府成立税务政策咨询委员会的同时，鉴于近年国际税务环境出现多项重大变化对香港带来影响，长远而言，公会促请政府适时就本港税制作出更全面的检视，并期望政府会继续研究扩展税基的可行性，以提升香港公共财政的韧性。”
    加快经济转型 融入国家发展大局
    香港作为国际金融中心的角色
    公会支持政府全面的措施，增强香港的国际金融中心地位，包括为企业的财资中心及其关联公司提供额外税务优惠和弹性，放宽家族办公室可获税务宽减的合资格投资、透过提供进一步的税务优惠推动黄金贸易和大宗商品交易等。
    支持内企“走出去”
    公会欢迎政府采纳建议，支持内地企业来港开拓海外业务，包括设立跨界别专业服务平台，集合包括会计专业在内的香港专业服务提供者，支持出海企业。我们已准备就绪提供支援，并相信相关措施有助巩固香港作为区内领先营商地，同时吸引更多内地及其他地区的企业来港，作为开拓海外业务的跳板，配合国家“走出去”发展策略。
    发展创新经济
    公会欢迎财政司司长致力推动AI产业化，透过加强政府各部门对AI应用以及投资本地AI研究与应用，将为社会及经济市场带来新机遇，同时协助政府简化运作流程。预算案也大力支持香港创科及知识产权行业发展，包括认可专利估值的需求，落实为期两年的“专利估值先导支援计划”，公会将于发展专利估值服务上致力提供支持。此外，公会欢迎政府就购买知识产权或其使用权的资本开支扣税安排咨询业界及设立知识产权学院培训相关人才，并全力发展量子计算。公会相信，措施对香港未来发展影响正面，并鼓励本地以至粤港澳大湾区内的创科活动，亦与公会一直以来的倡议吻合。
    社区可持续发展
    预算案建议，电动私家车的首次登记税宽减安排（“一换一”安排）在三月底届满后不再继续。公会认为，“一换一”安排应得以延续。随着政府将于2035年或之前停止新登记燃油私家车，持续推动电动车普及，促进香港于2050年实现碳中和的目标，更能提升香港作为国际绿色及可持续金融枢纽的地位。同时，公会建议政府继续支持可持续发展，包括延长“EV屋苑充电易资助计划”以推动绿色运输，并继续支持新能源运输计划。
    香港会计师公会预算案建议委员会召集人张瑛表示：“区域及环球竞争日渐激烈，香港有需要加快经济转型，当中包括加快数字化及加强包括创科及知识产权等的经济增长动力。要完成上述工作，还需要有充足的合适人才供应。预算案在相关领域的建议，将有助香港聚焦相关的发展机遇，有助提升香港经济韧性及可持续性。”
    根据预算案最新估算，政府财政状况较上年度大为改善，反映香港经济具韧力以及政府的整合财政措施初见成效。然而，面对人口老化及其他挑战与不明朗，公会建议政府应继续贯彻“审慎理财”原则，同时继续投资未来。

  • 香港營造師學會會長湯毓褀營造師就《財政預算案》26/27 作出以下回應

    樂見政府推動北都發展展望提升業界工程量
    關注建築成本高企及本地承建商參與政府工程的機會憂人才流失
    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年2月25日 – 學會樂見政府推動北都發展，預期將帶動房屋及基建工程量上升，為業界帶來更大發展空間。惟現時建築材料價格波動、供應不穩，加上檢測認證流程繁複，耗時長，導致整體建築成本持續高企，加重政府及業界財政負擔。學會將全力配合政府，進一步推動國標在本港建築項目的應用範圍，由現時鐵路項目延伸至一般房屋及基建工程，減少檢測時間、穩定物料供應，從而有效降低整體建築成本。

    與此同時，學會亦關注本地承建商參與政府工程的機會，本地企業多年來投放大量資源培育專業人才，若長期缺乏參與政府工程的機會，既會令既有培訓投入難以回收，更可能促使人才外流，削弱香港建造業的本土根基與長遠競爭力。因此，學會建議政府在推動標準融合及項目落實的同時，為積極投放人才培訓的本地企業提供合理發展空間，促進行業良性循環，既穩定人才隊伍，亦有助提升整體承建能力，更有效配合政府控制建築成本與推動北都發展。
    支持「十五五」規劃以科技化、機械化、專業化突破生產力瓶頸
    學會全力支持政府配合國家「十五五」規劃，推動建造業朝科技化、智能化、綠色化方向發展，同時樂見政府推動業界推動機械人應用。惟現時行業仍面對創新科技應用不足、機械化不普及、自動化流程未全面落地等瓶頸，本會期望政府加大資源投入，支持建造業機械化、自動化及數碼化發展，推動真正意義上的智能建造與高效生產力。

    學會認為科技發展必須由專業人士主導推進，才能確保技術落地、標準統一及風險可控。所謂專業化，不單在於資歷認可，更包括持續定期培訓、精通新工藝與最新物料應用，並具備有效控制成本、提升工程效率的專業能力。營造師作為工程管理的核心專業人員，正是推動行業科技化、專業化的關鍵力量。因此，本會期望政府盡快落實營造師註冊制度，以專業認證帶動行業規範化，讓科技與專業人才相輔相成，推動香港建造業邁向高質量發展。

    鼓勵專業人才培訓推動建造業可持續發展
    建造業正面對勞動人口老化、新血不足及前線管理人員專業水平參差等長期挑戰，影響工程質素、工地安全及行業競爭力。本會認為，人才培訓是支撐香港未來房屋供應及基建發展的根本，政府須加大資源投放，建立更系統化、專業化及持續性的培訓機制。

    同時，本會關注現時政府工程量近年只屬「維持不變」。在成本上升、行業經營壓力加劇的背景下，「不變」實際上等同工程機會相對縮減，長遠將令承建商及顧問公司難以作出穩定的人手規劃，亦不利企業持續投放資源培育人才，最終造成專業人才流失及行業斷層。

    因此，本會建議政府就公營工程建立更長遠及可預期的規劃，透過更平穩、可持續的工程供應節奏，協助業界維持合理工作量與人手配置，避免工程量「忽然飽死、忽然餓死」的周期波動，從而穩定就業與人才，讓培訓投入能夠轉化為長期生產力與工程質素提升。

    在培訓措施方面，本會建議政府優先資助與工地安全、建造管理及新技術應用相關的培訓課程，並將營造師、地盤監工等前線關鍵崗位納入重點培訓範疇，透過專業化及持續進修提升從業員技能與認受性，吸引更多年輕人投身建造業，為行業注入持續動力，推動建造業可持續發展。

  • Komitmen Olymptrade di Bulan Ramadan: Mendukung Komunitas Lansia

    Komitmen Olymptrade di Bulan Ramadan: Mendukung Komunitas Lansia

    JAKARTA, INDONESIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 Februari 2026 – Olymptrade menandai Ramadan dengan komitmen berkelanjutan untuk mendukung komunitas lansia melalui kemitraan jangka panjangnya dengan YUM Community Center. Sebagai bagian dari upaya tanggung jawab sosial yang berkelanjutan, Olymptrade menyelenggarakan inisiatif distribusi lain yang bertujuan untuk memberikan bantuan penting kepada mereka yang membutuhkan selama bulan yang bermakna ini.

    Komitmen Olymptrade di Bulan Ramadan: Mendukung Komunitas Lansia
    Komitmen Olymptrade di Bulan Ramadan: Mendukung Komunitas Lansia

    Sejak kemitraan dimulai pada September 2025, lebih dari 1.000 kotak makanan telah didistribusikan kepada warga lansia di seluruh komunitas lokal. Setiap paket berisi bahan makanan pokok seperti beras, kacang hijau, gula, susu, madu, dan telur; membantu memastikan bahwa kebutuhan nutrisi dasar terpenuhi dengan bermartabat dan penuh perhatian.

    Selain bantuan makanan, inisiatif ini juga mencakup pemeriksaan mata gratis dan penyediaan kacamata untuk individu lansia yang membutuhkan dukungan penglihatan, memperkuat fokus yang lebih luas pada kesejahteraan daripada bantuan sekali waktu.

    Distribusi 12 Februari: Memperluas Dukungan Selama Ramadan

    • Pada tanggal 12 Februari, putaran bantuan terbaru menjangkau ratusan anggota komunitas lansia. Distribusi tersebut meliputi:
    • 300 kotak makanan berisi bahan pokok rumah tangga
    • 300 perlengkapan kebersihan berisi pasta gigi, sikat gigi, sabun, pembersih lantai, dan kebutuhan sehari-hari lainnya
    • 300 kotak makan siang yang baru disiapkan termasuk nasi dengan ayam, sayuran goreng, tahu atau perkedel jagung, biskuit, buah (pisang atau jeruk), dan air mineral

    Inisiatif ini menjadi lebih bermakna berkat keterlibatan sukarelawan lokal dari Komunitas Olymptrade Indonesia. Partisipasi mereka membantu mengubah distribusi dari upaya logistik menjadi pertukaran yang personal dan penuh empati.

    Ramadan secara luas diakui sebagai waktu untuk bermurah hati, merenung, dan berbagi tanggung jawab. Dengan mendukung warga lanjut usia selama periode ini, platform perdagangan tersebut berupaya memperkuat nilai-nilai kebaikan dan kepedulian kolektif yang sangat berakar dalam masyarakat Indonesia.

    Komitmen Berkelanjutan kepada Komunitas

    Kemitraan dengan YUM Community Center mencerminkan komitmen berkelanjutan, bukan upaya sekali waktu. Sejak September 2025, kolaborasi yang konsisten telah memberikan lebih dari 1.000 kotak makanan, menyediakan dukungan medis, dan memperkuat ikatan lokal melalui keterlibatan langsung yang berkelanjutan.

    Yang paling menonjol bukanlah hanya skala dukungannya, tetapi juga keberlanjutannya. Para sukarelawan kembali, hubungan semakin erat, dan warga lanjut usia tahu bahwa mereka tidak dilupakan setelah berita utama mereda. Seiring berjalannya Ramadan, fokusnya tetap sederhana: memberikan bantuan praktis, hadir secara konsisten, dan memastikan bahwa perawatan berlanjut melampaui satu hari distribusi.

  • Olymptrade’s Ramadan Commitment: Supporting the Elderly Community

    Olymptrade’s Ramadan Commitment: Supporting the Elderly Community

    JAKARTA, INDONESIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 February 2026 – Olymptrade marked Ramadan with a continued commitment to supporting elderly communities through its long-term partnership with the YUM Community Center. As part of its ongoing social responsibility efforts, Olymptrade organized another distribution initiative aimed at providing essential assistance to those in need during this meaningful month.

    Olymptrade's Ramadan Commitment: Supporting the Elderly Community
    Olymptrade’s Ramadan Commitment: Supporting the Elderly Community

    Since the partnership began in September 2025, more than 1,000 food boxes have been distributed to elderly residents across local communities. Each package included staple items such as rice, mung beans, sugar, milk, honey, and eggs; helping ensure that basic nutritional needs were met with dignity and care.

    Beyond food assistance, the initiative has also included free eye checkups and the provision of eyeglasses for elderly individuals requiring vision support, reinforcing a broader focus on well-being rather than one-time aid.

    February 12 Distribution: Expanding Support During Ramadan

    On February 12, the latest round of support reached hundreds of elderly community members. The distribution included:

    • 300 food boxes containing essential household staples
    • 300 hygiene kits with toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, floor cleaner, and other daily necessities
    • 300 freshly prepared lunch boxes including rice with chicken, fried vegetables, tofu or corn fritters, crackers, fruit (bananas or oranges), and mineral water

    The initiative was made even more meaningful through the involvement of local volunteers from the Olymptrade Indonesia community. Their participation helped transform the distribution from a logistical effort into a personal and compassionate exchange.

    Ramadan is widely recognized as a time of generosity, reflection, and shared responsibility. By supporting elderly citizens during this period, the trading platform sought to reinforce the values of kindness and collective care that resonate deeply within Indonesian communities.

    A Continued Commitment to the Community

    The partnership with YUM Community Center reflects an ongoing commitment rather than a one-time effort. Since September 2025, consistent collaboration has delivered more than 1,000 food boxes, provided medical support, and strengthened local ties through steady, hands-on involvement.

    What stands out most is not only the scale of the support, but its continuity. Volunteers return, relationships deepen, and elderly residents know they are not forgotten once the headlines fade. As Ramadan continues, the focus remains simple: provide practical help, show up consistently, and ensure that care extends beyond a single distribution day.
