What is wrong with the Secret Political Economy?

 

 

 

First is gas price.

 

It is the concern of many motorist and it is a hint for the general politics in Hong Kong.  

 

Western oil companies controlled all the gas market in Hong Kong before. People were complaining always about the expensive fuel price. It was more expensive than mainland China and many other places. And the gas price had not been going down until today. It is still the headache of most motorist.

 

And this is one of the three basic heights of the economy:  High fuel price, high supermarket price and high property price. 

 

There must be a reason of it.

 

The gas price had been high since the colonial days. Now some Chinese oil company joined in to share the market.  But the fuel price did not go down as expected.

 

It seems that some secret powers are working together to bring the Hong Kong economy down.

 

Now there comes a chance to change from the new electrical vehicles. The electricals need not gas. People are expecting a new boost for the Hong Kong economy.

 

But it is strange that people are reluctant to buy electric vehicles.

 

It is absolutely not like the neighboring cities in China. There is clean air over their  cities.  Fuel burning cars and even buses are disappearing at a fast speed.

 

But Hong Kong is slow.

 

Major oil companies can still enjoy high profits.


The reason is in the lack of charging facilities in Hong Kong.

 

If you buy an electric car, you need to solve the charging problem first.

 

And the government of Hong Kong is not helping.  They are not building charging facilities to boost the market.

 

People need to queue into the few rare parking spaces to charge.  It is almost impossible for the common people to have their own charging facilities at home. And there are no public charging slots in the streets. There are many parking meters, but no charging posts.

 

It seems that some powerful source has been working secretly to deter the electrical vehicles to enter Hong Kong.  And the economy cannot be boost up in such a way.

 

Another strange is in the bus companies.

 

They are reluctant to use electrical buses. It needs to study carefully about their motives.  Why they are refusing to change?

 

Small businesses are important part of the economy. For many jobless people, it is their means to survive.

 

But it is extremely difficult to run a small business in Hong Kong.

 

Small shops come and go. It is so not easy to open a shop, yet the high costs of rent and electric bills and the supermarkets can kill them in a short time.

 

It needs to study a new kind of economics: the secret political influence in economics.  

 

There is a secret control everywhere. If you see how supermarkets are promoting Japanese eggs in a huge effort, you just cannot stop to contemplate about their motives.
