Expropriation.
Not the word Hong Kong property developers, sitting on millions of square feet of farmland, wish to hear. And the newish Bauhinia Party (just) stops short of suggesting such an approach.
But a recent <a href="https://www.thestandnews.com/politics/%E7%B4%AB%E8%8D%8A%E9%BB%A8%E5%85%A7%E9%83%A8%E5%88%8A%E7%89%A9-%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF%E6%88%BF%E5%B1%8B%E5%95%8F%E9%A1%8C%E5%A8%81%E8%84%85-%E4%B8%80%E5%9C%8B-%E5%AE%89%E5%85%A8-%E5%80%A1%E4%B8%AD%E5%A4%AE%E5%87%BA%E9%9D%A2%E5%8D%94%E8%AA%BF-%E8%88%89%E4%BE%8B%E5%8F%AF%E5%BC%B7%E5%BE%B5%E5%9C%9F%E5%9C%B0/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">internal discussion paper</a>, authored by an executive committee member of the Bauhinia Party, refers to the housing issue in Hong Kong, wherein the gap between the rich and poor is widening, causing social unrest to the point of "threatening the security of one country". The paper indicates the Central government has the right to coordinate the supply of land in Hong Kong.
The Bauhinia party, established by mainland Chinese executives, is a pro-Beijing political party with close links to Beijing's authorities. I would not be so quick to dismiss such commentary and the potential knock-on effect to local property developers.
