The measures are aimed at meeting the growing needs of elderly Hongkongers and helping firms to seize relevant business opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mr Cheuk said developing the silver economy in response to population ageing will be vital to people\u2019s livelihoods and well-being. He outlined that the silver economy encompasses a wide range of sectors and has a long industry chain, adding that its burgeoning market signifies substantial development potential. Accelerating the silver industry\u2019s growth requires co-ordination of various policies, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The working group will co-ordinate the efforts of relevant bureaus in formulating supportive policies and measures across the above-mentioned five areas. It will strive not only to inject vitality into Hong Kong\u2019s overall economy, but also to deliver high-quality silver product and service models that allow the elderly to share the fruits of the city\u2019s development.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bureaus will work on the details of their work plans over the next six months, in order to formulate initiatives and measures for implementation in the first half of next year. Mr Cheuk added that the working group will monitor the progress of bureaus in doing so.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At today\u2019s meeting, the working group reviewed bureaus\u2019 initial work directions across each of the five areas, and discussed ways of strengthening collaboration among bureaus and departments.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The working group\u2019s other members include the Secretary for Commerce &amp; Economic Development, the Secretary for Labour &amp; Welfare, the Secretary for Innovation, Technology &amp; Industry, the Secretary for Financial Services &amp; the Treasury, and the Secretary for Health.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deputy Chief Secretary Cheuk Wing-hing today chaired the first meeting of the \u201cWorking Group on Promoting Silver Economy\u201d to commence co-ordination of relevant bureaus\u2019 work plans. \u00a0 The Chief Executive announced in the 2024 Policy Address that a working group, chaired by the Deputy Chief Secretary, would be set up and would commence work by<span class=\"post-excerpt-end\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradenet.hk\/b2b\/silver-economy-meeting-held\/\" class=\"themebutton\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2236,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[34],"class_list":["post-2235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-news"],"nelio_content":{"isAutoShareEnabled":true,"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"followers":[1],"suggestedReferences":[],"efiUrl":"","efiAlt":"","highlights":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
