San Tin IT hub / e-HKD digital currency pilot scheme
主持人：Jim Gould and Mike Rowse
On Monday's Backchat, we learn more about plans to establish a major technology hub as part of the Northern Metropolis development.
Aspiring to become "Hong Kong's Silicon Valley", the 627 hectare San Tin Technopole, as it's called, could create at least 165,000 innovation and technology jobs on land the size of 17 Science Parks.
The Development Bureau has said that besides public tendering, plots could be offered by means such as restricted tendering or direct land grants.
Meanwhile, green groups have expressed concerns about the possible environmental impact of development in the area.
How much of an impact would the new centre have in boosting R&D capabilities? Would relaxed tendering rules encourage more tech companies to apply?
After 9.45 we'll look into the launch of the Hong Kong digital currency trial.
Let us know what you think. You can leave a message here on our Facebook page, email us at backchat@rthk.hk, or give us a call on 23388266.
