A NEW report urges Hong Kong to improve dramatically on the logistics front by assigning more land and giving it priority status in government.
The British Chamber of Commerce Logistics Committee called for greater land to be freed up for the city’s logistics sector as a whole. also calling for the industry to be overseen by a new body rather than the current Transport and Housing Bureau (THB).
“The largely international outlook of the logistics, ports and aviation-related sectors cannot be properly channelled under the current structure with the largely Hong Kong livelihood-centric focus (in public housing and mass transportation)" the committee said in its plea to Chief Executive CY Leung.
“The logistics portfolio should be devolved to a separate administrative structure with a centralised and focused vision and mission to lead and coordinate future needs with other government bureaux and agencies" said the paper.
The British Chamber’s report is the latest in a series of papers and studies looking at the future of Hong Kong’s transport sector.
