A group of experts, including renowned infectious diseases specialist Professor Yuen Kwok-yung, is advocating for Hong Kong to take immediate steps to attract affluent visitors seeking high-end health services. This call to action comes amid increasing concerns over the city’s budget deficit, which has been exacerbated by the economic downturn following the pandemic.
Professor Yuen emphasized that the city possesses the necessary infrastructure and expertise to provide world-class healthcare services. By promoting its advanced medical facilities and skilled healthcare professionals, Hong Kong could position itself as a premier destination for medical tourism. This strategy not only aims to bolster the local economy but also to enhance the city’s global reputation as a leading healthcare hub.
The experts argue that a focused campaign to draw wealthy tourists could generate significant revenue, helping to alleviate financial pressures on the government. They believe that with the right investments and marketing strategies, Hong Kong can reclaim its status as a top destination for those seeking luxury healthcare options.
