Hong Kong aims to clear substandard subdivided flats by 2030, housing chief says

The headline number is 2030, but the operative detail is the tenure split: a stated 40/30/30 target for rental, subsidised sale and private housing, with 60% owner-occupation, is a structural commitment that outlives any single clearance programme. That mix matters most to future supply planning and to developers whose pipelines assume a larger private share. Whether the 2030 clearance deadline holds, and whether the tenure targets survive contact with land and fiscal constraints, is the open question.
