The Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, Chan Mo po, stated on the 12th that as of the end of last month, Hong Kong's various talent programs had received about 290000 applications, of which about 180000 had been approved and about 120000 people had arrived in Hong Kong. More than half of the talents who have arrived in Hong Kong for six months or more have been hired, and their median monthly income is about HKD 50000. "These talents, including their families who accompany them to Hong Kong, will become important driving forces for sustainable development in Hong Kong." In terms of attracting enterprises, Chen Maobo said that in addition to the second batch of partner enterprises announced by the Key Enterprise Office earlier, the Investment and Promotion Department of the Special Administrative Region Government assisted a total of 150 overseas companies in Hong Kong's development in the first quarter of this year, an increase of 46% compared to the same period last year. These companies mainly come from the fields of finance, innovation and family offices, and they will jointly invest about HKD 14.7 billion, creating over 2000 jobs. In addition, Chen Maobo said that since February last year, different departments, chambers of commerce, and enterprises of the SAR government have signed about 60 projects with Gulf Arab countries, covering strengthening cooperation, mediation and arbitration, and artificial intelligence. At the same time, the SAR government is in talks with Saudi Arabia on investment promotion and protection agreements, and is considering setting up an economic and trade office in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh. "Despite the complex and ever-changing external environment, challenges such as geopolitics and high interest rates still exist. With the solid support of the central government, as long as we continue to work hard, consolidate and enhance our competitiveness in various aspects in the changing new situation and pattern, we will definitely accelerate the faster and higher quality growth of the Hong Kong economy." said Chen Maobo.
