The Honourable Paul MP Chan, GBM, GBS, MH, JP, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, delivered his 2022-2023 Budget Speech to the Legislative Council on 23 February 2022.

Every year, the Hong Kong business community hosts a luncheon for hundreds of executives to hear the Financial Secretary elaborate on the details of his latest Budget. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 situation, this is not possible again this year. However, we are deeply honoured that the Financial Secretary accepted our invitation to speak to the Hong Kong business community online on 23 March. Attendees were able to hear Mr Chan discuss the Government??s plans to steer its fiscal policy and enhance Hong Kong's competitiveness. Not least, he also discussed measures to help Hong Kong businesses cope with the extreme difficulties they are experiencing as economy struggles with this pandemic.
