The Legislative Council election will be held on December 7, and the government and various businesses have successively introduced measures to encourage employees and the public to vote. The government earlier said that the voting period would start one hour earlier and end one hour later, from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. MTR Chief Executive Jacob Chak Pui Kam also wrote in a Sing Tao Daily column today (18th) that, in response to the extended voting hours, the MTR would run its first trains earlier on polling day to facilitate polling-station staff making preparations in advance.
Jacob Chak Pui Kam said the MTR would make use of advertising light boxes at stations and post election reminder information at some entry and exit gates. It would also follow the guidelines of the Electoral Affairs Commission and facilitate registered electors staying on the mainland in travelling to boundary polling stations. The company would at the same time actively support the government’s arrangements for the election and encourage and support members of the public to vote.
To encourage MTR employees to vote, Jacob Chak Pui Kam said election publicity had been carried out through internal communication platforms and posters displayed in offices. Considering that some MTR employees would need to be on duty on polling day, additional staff would also be deployed that day for flexible allocation and to facilitate colleagues voting.
立法會選舉 12 月 7 日舉行，政府以至不同企業都陸續推出措施鼓勵員工和公眾投票。政府早前指選舉的投票開始和結束時間都會分別提早和延遲 1 小時，由早上 7 時半至晚上 11 時半；港鐵行政總裁金澤培今日（18 日）亦在《星島日報》專欄撰文，表示因應今次延長投票時間，港鐵將在選舉日提早開出頭班車，便利票站人員早作準備。
金澤培說，港鐵會善用站內廣告燈箱及部分出入閘機張貼出選舉的提示資訊，又會配合選舉事務處指引及便利身在內地的登記選民前往邊境票站，公司同時會積極配合政府選舉安排的部署，鼓勵和支持市民大眾投票。
為了鼓勵港鐵員工投票，金澤培說已透過內部通訊平台、辦公室張貼海報等宣傳選舉。考慮到部分港鐵員工需於選舉日值班，當日亦會加派人手當值，以作靈活調配和便利同事投票。

選舉論壇・會計界｜不設互相質詢 吳錦華自稱「三無」 暗諷爭連任黃俊碩
On the seventh day of the government-organised Legislative Council election forum, “Patriots United in Governing Hong Kong”, forums for functional constituencies began today (17th). The first functional constituency forum was for the accountancy sector. During the one-hour forum, there was no mutual questioning or debate. The two candidates, Thomas Kam Wah Ng and Edmund Chun Sek Wong, only introduced their election platforms and answered questions set by the moderator and questions drawn by lot. There were no confrontational exchanges. In introducing his platform and during his closing remarks, Thomas Kam Wah Ng, who described himself as independent, called himself a “three-no” candidate — “no political party, no background and no foreign passport” — in an apparent swipe at DAB candidate Edmund Chun Sek Wong’s bid for re-election. Edmund Chun Sek Wong is the son of accountant Patrick Lung Tak Wong and declared that he holds rights of abode in the United Kingdom and Canada.

選舉論壇．選委會｜沒提問、辯論 50 候選人每人兩分半鐘講政綱 助選團打氣全程疊聲
The government’s 39 Legislative Council “Patriots United in Governing Hong Kong” election forums held the Election Committee constituency session today (16th). The three-hour session had no question-and-answer or “debate” segment. Each of the 50 candidates took the stage for two and a half minutes to introduce themselves and present their platforms. Campaign teams of five candidates each cheered simultaneously for 30 seconds, with their voices overlapping throughout the cheering. Some Election Committee members left partway through the forum from time to time.
Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Tsang Kwok-wai told reporters after the forum that about 1,100 Election Committee members attended. He said most members were busy with official duties and might not have participated for the entire session, and that some had asked the bureau in advance whether assistants could attend on their behalf. He said the forum could be replayed and believed this would help members understand the candidates’ platform ideas.

立法會選舉｜盤點候選人簡介用詞 39人提融入國家發展大局 國安、愛國其次
The Hong Kong Legislative Council general election has officially begun. In addition to candidates’ performance at election forums, their election platforms are also an important focus. Pulse HK reviewed the areas of concern in the profiles of the 161 Legislative Council election candidates published by the Registration and Electoral Office. Nearly one-quarter, or 39 candidates, said they would integrate into the overall national development and contribute to the country, among other things. The most common focus among functional constituency candidates was integrating into the Greater Bay Area and seizing opportunities arising from the 15th Five-Year Plan, mentioned by 20 candidates. “Patriotism/patriotic education” and “national security” were mentioned by only 11 of the 161 candidates respectively, markedly fewer than those referring to integration into national development.

At the first forum, for New Territories South West, candidates were asked by the moderator how to enhance the constituency’s distinctive economy and residents’ sense of happiness. Chan Wing-yan of the Federation of Trade Unions, who is seeking re-election, said she had the network to promote an “influencer economy” and boost shops. She also said she would seek to bring “yacht tourism” to Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing. The New People’s Party Marcella Man Ka Cheung said Tsuen Wan had high hills, many temples and long footbridges, and that the cluster of temples around Lo Wai could be developed into a one-day itinerary to boost local tourism. The Business and Professionals Alliance for Hong Kong Ariel Yee Ki Mok hoped to promote a “waterfront night-market hawker economy” in Tsuen Wan and drive domestic circulation.

選舉論壇・新界東北｜互問生態旅遊 古偉冰：大嶼山緯度同夏威夷一樣⋯ 不能參與傳媒辦論壇？ 曾國衞：我唔聽到有
The second “government-organised forum” for the Legislative Council election was held this afternoon (11th). The first forum this morning featured “no debate in the debate segment”, while the five candidates in New Territories North East questioned one another in the afternoon. New People’s Party candidate Dominic Lee asked United Front candidate Wai Ping Ku for his views on promoting ecotourism across Hong Kong. Wai Ping Ku said Lantau Island is at the same latitude as Hawaii and suggested that the Government improve transport infrastructure to avoid a situation like that at East Dam. Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Erick Tsang, who attended both forums, said the forums were “ideal”. Asked about reports that some candidates had been instructed not to participate in forums organised by the media, Tsang said: “I won’t comment on that point, and I haven’t heard of such a situation.”

施榮懷：食肆商界擬為投票市民提供優惠 奧蘇利雲同入境處長拍片 廣東話籲投票
The government, organisations and business sector have been promoting the Legislative Council election in recent days. Irons Wing Wai Sze, chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Beijing Associations and a member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, was interviewed yesterday while handing out election leaflets at a street booth. He said some restaurants planned to offer discounts to people who had voted, while the business sector was also discussing shopping offers. A media outlet asked Chief Secretary for Administration Eric Chan Kwok-ki yesterday whether offering discounts to voters would be illegal. He said the election legislation set out what constituted illegal conduct, and that when companies offered discounts or leave, they could not ask voters to vote for individual candidates.
Chan Kwok-ki said the election legislation set out what constituted illegal conduct. Irons Wing Wai Sze said he had encouraged members who ran businesses to give half a day’s leave to encourage employees to vote, with the general response being positive. He also said he knew of more than a dozen restaurants planning to offer discounts—for example, holders of voting cards could receive 20% or 15% off their meals—and that the business sector was discussing more offers, such as admission or shopping discounts at the Hong Kong Brands and Products Expo.
