COVID-19 has caused the most serious health crisis in a century and the most devastating economic crisis since the Second World War. Governments around the world have to cope with sudden simultaneous health, economic and social challenges. There is no universally agreed way of appraising international performance in the fight against the pandemic, but some (in Asia and the Oceania) are clearly better than others in epidemic control and crisis recovery. As the pandemic focus shifts towards mass vaccination, some countries are accepting "co-existence" as an exit strategy as opposed to a "zero-tolerance" approach. This Policy Dialogue evaluates the performance of Hong Kong against worldwide anti-Covid policy strategies in order to draw some lessons.
The Department of Social Sciences is home to two most-cited scholars worldwide, according to the 2021 Stanford ranking of top 2% most-cited scientists.

Dr Eddie Cheng Wai-lun, Assistant Professor, is also on the list under the Building and Construction category.
The year 2020 is a dividing line in Hong Kong's development as a special administrative region (SAR) under the 'One Country, Two Systems' framework. In response to political disorder and social unrest, seen as a separatist challenge to national authority, the Chinese central government has imposed a national security law on Hong Kong and later revamped the electoral system to ensure that only 'patriots' administer the city. Amid growing local anxieties about the future and international concerns, Beijing and the optimists expect the 'second transition' to get the SAR out of the political conundrum. Pessimists, however, predict the city's demise. It is critical time to consider the prospect of 'One Country, Two Systems' in the new era: Is it being bogged down in a path of retreat or can it open a new page for rebooting the once vibrant and self-confident metropolis?
