******************************************************************************************
Miss Law said, "The Chinese New Year Golden Week is Hong Kong's peak season for travel. Various districts in the city will host a variety of festive events to create a rich New Year ambience for visitors. We are grateful for the Central Government in resuming and expanding the multiple-entry Individual Visit Scheme for Shenzhen residents, which enables more Mainland travellers to visit Hong Kong. We estimate a notable increase in visitor arrivals during the Chinese New Year Golden Week. We encourage the trade to grasp the opportunities and be flexible in providing more high-quality and innovative experiences to visitors to attract them to stay overnight to enjoy Hong Kong's unique festive atmosphere."
Relevant parties will continue to maintain close communication before the Chinese New Year Golden Week of the Mainland to plan and take forward various preparations for welcoming visitors to Hong Kong, making timely reports on the latest situation to the interdepartmental working group on festival arrangements chaired by the Chief Secretary for Administration.
