42.         When the previous-term Government suggested promoting the six industries where Hong Kong enjoyed clear advantages, the proposal gained support from the community. In promoting the industries over the past four years, we have identified certain issues that need to be addressed. For example, our medical sector is facing manpower shortage, and the public is divided as to whether education services should be regarded as an industry. The need to meet local demand also clashes with the need to promote the growth of these two industries. The EDC will review the overall industrial development strategies and policies in order to draw up relevant proposals.
