香港特区政府财政司司长曾俊华27日表示,在全球合作反恐的大前提下,各国收紧空运的安检要求是不可逆转的趋势,他建议物流业提早做好准备,化危为机。
Hong Kong (CNS) -- Hong Kong's logistics industry must act quickly to meet tougher anti-terrorism security measures, said Hong Kong Financial Secretary John Tsang Chun-wah on Sunday.
The European Union and the United States are planning tighter regulations for inspections of incoming cargo at airports. Such advanced screening is also expected of Hong Kong's air cargo logistics, said Tsang.
Tsang advised the industry to prepare so that Hong Kong businesses are among the first service providers to satisfy the requirements.
The Hong Kong Civil Aviation Department and the Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department are now working in a concerted effort with the logistics sector, Tsang added.
