事實上這不正也是「積極不干預」的要義嗎?不要以為積極不干預執權者便繑起雙手,什麼都不用做。非也。即使不「多事更張」,社會上可有這種、那種利益壓力團體要利用政府的權勢為他們效力;不費一番氣力難以制止這些「尋租」行為。故此積極不干預非但要有識見,更要有勇氣和承擔。3 n8 M1 o Y- D) W$ a! q( @" m7 K

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. ! ?2 x9 X4 p7 Y+ \2 ntvb 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。9 b P4 b.

Looking 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.1 _0 M9 C0 W7 S7 r4 p( ]

First off, it does not, as a Government spokesman stated at the time, give a preference to those that are committed to Hong Kong. It merely gives a benefit to those that have the right of abode here. % S( r5 h0 `8 |- X# }公仔箱論壇5.39.217.76' y8 k' O& Z$ i5 o E% S

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.

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? " R) x8 a; D9 o' h8 ^. }/ l( ~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。: \. D9 X2 o7 j& n3 R2 @
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. * X; K3 i8 q+ \& J" B5 I5.39.217.76 3 Y, g4 G- M% P2 x# J& k; M1 m! n公仔箱論壇We needed the meat put on the bones of the Chief Executive’ s Election Manifesto,but we are now months on from the election and the skeleton is still the only thing you can find in the shop window. 0 L( \9 d6 x# q8 `tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb $ {% Q) m9 }. d- q公仔箱論壇You do not have to be an evangelical Republican to believe that excessive government interference is not the way to go, but the early signs are that we will get more frequent and increasingly dis-jointed policy initiatives that simply compound the perceived problems that they seek to address.) ^8 K, r5 K' U) V4 U
