Chief Secretary Eric Chan said the current-term government's efforts, including dedicated care teams, have brought 'real impact' for ethnic minorities.

Govt help for ethnic minorities has 'real impact': CS
Chief Secretary Eric Chan said the current-term government's efforts to help ethnic minorities, such as setting up dedicated care teams, have brought "real impact". Speaking at the Carnival of Care and Harmony on Sunday, Chan detailed the work of ethnic minority care teams, which operate out of support service centres across the city.
"In just over two years, these teams have reached some 18,000 ethnic minority households. That is real impact," Chan said.
Expansion of services
Chan said two more support service centres were established in 2024, bringing the total to 10. Each centre houses a care team led by a social worker, supported by programme workers and volunteers familiar with the languages and cultures of the communities they serve.
"Through proactive outreach – including home visits and community activities – they connect with ethnic minorities in need, assisting with everyday challenges and providing timely support during emergencies or unexpected incidents," he said.
Looking ahead
Chan said the government will continue its efforts to help ethnic minorities better integrate into society.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
