然而不管推行真正惠民的政策來得有多困難,也不管「梁才」如何難求,他也不得推出這種、那種政策以求建立民望。可是沒有人才,構思又焉能妥貼?政策先天欠妥,更找二、三流的腳色掛帥印推行,效果如何,相信也無需鄙人多費唇舌了。TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。! l. T+ z$ u( H- L

The last few weeks have seen the continued stagnation of the Leung Administration,as policy initiatives stumble and as the Administration seems unable to manage a united front. % P% ]' R; j9 }5 w# t! z% ^TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。4 b* m; R# S+ N& t
Some of the events that have undermined the Administration have been self inflicted,while others, such as appointing an investment banker to Exco whose qualification seemed to be that he owned 27 properties must be seen by the public as being downright stupid.1 k/ O3 w* `' B8 x7 X
But,despite these ups and downs, the real problem is the fact that we are still not clear about what C.Y. Leung and his team stand for, which became an even bigger issue when he decided to push back the Policy Address to early 2013. ) N5 I$ u2 N' v G/ p" J公仔箱論壇 " {) M' K8 ~ {2 [- x, N9 \3 k: ELooking at moves such as those to support the less well off, it is not clear if this is a portent of more social expenditure going forward, or if there is going to be some universal integration of benefits so that those people who are not able to gain access to public housing, for example, are not substantially dis-advantaged.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb" l2 X0 s4 [. k" [: x; A/ X4 O

They qualify for HOS and PRH public housing units because, as students, they still have no income; they can come back for free health care and later in life retire here and get the public to pick up the bill.

This nonsensical stamp duty discrimination highlights just how wrong the Government is when it adjudges the right of abode to be the basis for receiving free public sector goods and services, irrespective of the ordinary residency of the people claiming the benefit. 7 j' L# Q8 [, [( ^- ~8 h1 e5 F- _/ s0 D: H+ G
Secondly,and more importantly, what the random stamp duty initiative undoubtedly does do is send a message to all around the world that policy in Hong Kong in relation to assets, their price levels and investment overall will in future be subject to ad hoc Government measures, as and when they see fit. Will they put a capital gains tax on stock transactions if the Hang Seng Index soars? 5 s9 h( {, k/ i+ l4 D8 I* W* ctvb now,tvbnow,bttvbTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。; n7 A7 r; v e4 Y* {& D" x+ ]2 D
And then, finally, when it comes to the punitive taxation of property transactions,reducing liquidity in the major domestic asset market, and one that is used for funding all sorts of economic activities and which is a key component of household balance-sheets, is simply not smart.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb3 c O) t M' k ^2 p.

In reality, C.Y. Leung just needs to do one or two simple things as a start: give the people of Hong Kong a break and start to solve a few issues with clear structural reforms,and stand back. How about for a start giving public housing away to its occupants and making sure that only those who have been ordinarily resident for seven years can get on the public sector gravy train. 8 S!
