Electoral arrangements; vaccine bubbles

2021-04-14
On Wednesday's Backchat, electoral arrangements and vaccine bubbles.

We'll be discussing the latest changes to elections in Hong Kong. What are the causes and
effects? Will they stabilise our political scene? Or make voting pointless? 

Health minister Sophia Chan says officials will, from this week, discuss
details of Hong Kong's new "vaccine bubble" with the trades concerned. The scheme, which
relaxes some Covid-19 social distancing measures, was announced on Monday by the Chief
Executive Carrie Lam.
Lam said people who had been vaccinated would enjoy a further easing of social distancing
restrictions that could see bars, karaokes and nightclubs reopen, large banquets resume and
travel restrictions eased.
Do you support the proposals?
