HONG KONG: Hong Kong’s deficit for this fiscal year is expected to be just below HK$100bil or about US$13bil, the city’s finance chief says.
The government is “focussing on cost-saving measures” to tackle the deficit, Paul Chan told residents on a programme on public broadcaster RTHK last Saturday, where he was gathering public feedback ahead of the upcoming budget.
