HKLegislative Council president Starry Lee Wai-king has called for Hong Kong authorities to set raising home ownership as a goal within the city's first five-year plan. During a visit to Oi Man Estate in Ho Man Tin with the housing minister, Lee suggested revitalizing a program allowing public housing tenants to purchase their flats and reserving subsidized housing for young and middle-class families. She emphasized the need for a clear housing ladder for citizens through gradual increases in home ownership rates. While agreeing with the government's focus on expanding housing supply, Lee recommended additional measures to enhance home ownership. Her suggestions were shared with Secretary for Housing Winnie Ho Wing-yin during the visit.
