(photo: procedures from filling in the form to departure for customs clearance) at the beginning of July this year, Ta Kung Pao took the lead in reporting the difficulties of Hong Kong students in customs clearance, and repeatedly called for attention to the problem of opening schools under the epidemic. After repeated calls, yesterday the Education Bureau finally announced convenience measures to assist Hong Kong students to study in mainland universities. Cai Ruolin, Secretary for education, said that Guangdong Province has included Hong Kong students in the humanistic care channel at the land ports of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and the number of flights between Hong Kong and mainland cities will increase, allowing Hong Kong students to book tickets first; The Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council will set up a working group to work with the Ministry of education and other central departments and local authorities to deal with the arrangements. Students must fill in the electronic application form and provide relevant admission documents before August 26 (Friday). If the approval is completed, students will receive an email notification at the latest one day before departure. The relevant measures do not include the arrangements for charter flights and charter buses mentioned earlier. Some junior students admitted to mainland universities said that although it was too late, it gave them warmth. The principal of a secondary school said that if students are still late for the start of school, they should communicate with mainland institutions as soon as possible to discuss solutions. Cai Ruolin said that the facilitation measures include including including Hong Kong students into the "humanistic care channel" at the land boundary between Guangdong and Hong Kong, increasing their chances of getting places to Shenzhen or Zhuhai, and mobilizing isolation hotels to cooperate. In addition, with the active coordination of the central government, the number of passenger flights between Hong Kong and mainland cities will increase, and Hong Kong students will be allowed to book tickets first. In addition. The SAR government is also discussing with the Macao SAR that if necessary, Hong Kong students can also be isolated through Macao and then go to the mainland through the Gongbei port or the Macao International Airport to speed up the evacuation. Students are required to complete the electronic form and upload the admission certificate and other documents on or before August 26. Upon receipt of the completed forms and documents, the government will sort them out as soon as possible and send them to the relevant Mainland authorities for verification. When the relevant procedures are completed, the government will notify the students by email as soon as possible. Hold your luggage and inform Cai Ruolin one day in advance at any time. She stressed that she hopes to know the number of students who need to cross the border on or before Friday. However, the online platform for submitting information will not be closed immediately after Friday, and students can still submit information. "The notice period is very short. Students should be ready to leave at any time. The authorities will notify the students at least one day before their departure." Most of the mainland's institutions open on September 1, and many students are worried that they will not be able to register in time. Cai Ruolin said that the Bureau would work with the relevant Mainland authorities to discuss with the universities to adopt flexible measures, including retaining the admission qualifications of students and making discretionary arrangements in registration or classes. Details would be announced as soon as possible. Li Zhongshan, Deputy Secretary General of the Education Bureau, said that 18000 Hong Kong students would go to the mainland to study in Universities in the new academic year. Among them, 3000 first-year undergraduates need to report. It is believed that some of them have not returned to Hong Kong or have entered the mainland. Cheng Yongtong, a junior majoring in physical education at Jinan University, said that the school had opened on August 21. Because she could not get the entry quota, she had to ask her teacher to help her go through the admission formalities online. Cheng Yongtong said that she is now studying theory courses online, and plans to make up for other courses by self-study after returning to school.
