Post Covid-19, China is now looking for much needed boost to Hong Kong’s tourism and International talented expats as the situation forced many to leave China during the pandemic. The government has started issuing passports to local Chinese citizens to visit family and friends living abroad and also extending visas for foreigners and students to immigrate to China for work, business and studies.
