Chris Sun Pledges to Continue Exploring Development of Mobile JoyYou Card
2026-04-22 14:43:14 The Hong Kong government has all along been closely monitoring the beneficiaries' demand for digital services under the HKD2 Scheme, and has been maintaining communication with the Octopus Cards Limited and various public transport operators to explore the feasibility of developing a mobile JoyYou Card, said Chris Sun, Secretary for Labour and Welfare, in a written reply to a Legislative Council member. A mobile JoyYou Card must meet a range of requirements, including the provision of reliable and effective anti-counterfeiting and identity verification functions, so that law enforcement officers and frontline staff of public transport operators can quickly verify passengers' identities when necessary and prevent abuse, Sun stressed. The Hong Kong government will continue to work with relevant parties to explore the development of a mobile JoyYou Card, while carefully examining various issues including law enforcement, technical specifications and system requirements, with a view to striking an appropriate balance between facilitating beneficiaries and preventing abuse. ~ AAStocks Financial News Web Site: www.aastocks.com | |
