The DAB held its fourth round table on Thursday to gather opinions on how to strengthen Hong Kong's status as an international logistics and aviation hub.

The party said it would compile different views and submit a report to the government, to push forward the city's development in trading and logistics.

Speaking on RTHK's Hong Kong Today programme, lawmaker Holden Chow said the discussion generated a lot of ideas.

"Some key takeaways here is: first of all, stakeholders believe, the guests believe, that Hong Kong has always enjoyed an international logistic hub status, but we do face some kind of challenges on the status of our container port, we face a lot of competition from other mainland cities.

"But at the same time, they do give some suggestions of how to ramp up our effort to reinforce our logistical status. Like, for example, we should make good use of technology. The industry itself should actually upgrade the technology. We could do a sort of a smart logistic systems," Chow added.

Chow also noted the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration made it imperative for Hong Kong to diversify into new markets.

"Given that we have seen [US President] Donald Trump's unpredictable behaviour, and he is totally unpredictable, and he could change in a split of a second, and he could actually change his policy right away, so we face this sort of uncertainty," he said.

"For guests and stakeholders, they believe that in the long run, we should actually explore more markets outside the United States, given that sort of uncertainty."
