On a quarter-on-quarter basis, a better reflection of growth momentum, GDP shrank 0.9%, the finalized data showed. Forecast for underlying inflation is maintained at 1%.\n\n“Domestically, if the epidemic remains stable, the improving labor market and the boost from the consumption voucherschemewill help stimulate consumer demand,” government economists said at a briefing Friday. Vaccination is essential to “a fully-fledged economic recovery,” they added.\nThe economists alsonoteda number of uncertainties ahead, including the delta variant outbreak, U.S.-China relations, geopolitical tensions and major global central banks’ evolving monetary policy stance.\nUneven Recovery\nHong Kong’s economy has faced an uneven recovery from two years of contraction, with retailers and tourism-related businesses particularly hard hit as borders remain shut and travel curtailed to stop the spread of more infectious variants of Covid-19.\nFinancial services and the property market are booming though. Home prices jumped tothe highest levelsince record began in 1993 on low mortgage rates and rising demand, a separate report showed.\nThe unbalanced recovery has exposed deepening wealth imbalances between the city’s working class and elite. Tourism, consumer and services industries are the biggest employers of many of Hong Kong’s working class.\nHong Kong’s Economy Is Finally Recovering, But Only for the Rich\nIn a sign of improvement, the unemployment rate in the consumption and tourism-related sectors fell visibly in the second-quarter, according to the government economists.\nConsumer spending also picked up sharply,growing6.8% in the second quarter from a year ago, up from 2.1% in the first three months of the year.\nThe government has begundistributingHK$5,000 ($642) consumption vouchers to eligible residents to encourage spending. The program will cost an estimated HK$36 billion and provide a 0.7 percentage-point bump to this year’s GDP, according to an April
