The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government started the one-trip-per-week cap policy a year ago to limit the visit by the permanent Shenzhen residents with multiple-entry visas. This policy has already led to the numbers of individual tourist visas fell 11 percent. However, this policy also led to reducing visitors numbers and fall of rental fees in some areas such as Causeway Bay. On the other hand, this policy has not hampered the parallel activities in the Northern districts. Siu Kam Chan reports.
