Assessment of the impact of migration on Hong Kong’s population and its development
This study seeks to characterise the effects of migration on the population development of Hong Kong where there has been rapid population transition due to extremely low fertility and uncertainties in migration flows. We explore actual historical trends during the period 2011–2021, and how these trends could shape the future demographic distribution if they persist. Using population census data, we estimate the net migration numbers in Hong Kong…
A randomized controlled experiment for comparing face-to-face and online teaching during Covid-19 pandemic
Randomized controlled experiments have shown that face-to-face teaching is more effective in delivering various learning outcomes than asynchronous online teaching. Unlike the asynchronous online teaching mode, the synchronous online mode has a live instruction component and is more comparable to the face-to-face mode. A small-sized randomized controlled experiment involving 50 students showed that there was no significant difference in student r…
Optimal Strategies for Reducing Number of People in the Social Security System
Providing social security to the population in need has become a major expenditure for many governments. Reducing the number of dependents in the social security system and maintaining a dynamic economically active population is a high priority concern for policymakers. A good understanding of the dynamics of the social security system-specifically, who enters and who exits the system-would be helpful for formulating effective interventions. Here…
Modeling Internal Movement of Children Born in Hong Kong to Nonlocal Mothers
In Hong Kong, approximately 300,000 children were born to Mainland China couples in the period 1991–2012. According to Basic Law, the mini constitution of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) government, these parents do not have residence rights, but their children do. As a result, most of these children have returned to Mainland China with their parents. An important consideration for policymakers is how many of these children (who are…
