資訊科技界對CEPA有更多期待
在沒有鑼鼓喧天的情況下,內地與特區政府於上月公布了「更緊密經貿關係安排」(CEPA)的第三階段開放措施,而新的安排將於明年一月起實施。如中央政府所言,CEPA是一項互惠互利、持續進行的工作。藉兩地進一步開放貨物貿易和服務貿易,香港企業及專業界別將會獲得更多商機,內地企業也可藉香港企業扮演良性競爭者的方式,體驗自由市場的營商模式,為內地未來全面履行入世承諾和開放市場作好準備。
我相信有很多界別,對第三階段CEPA是充滿期望的,尤其強調無分地域國界競爭、人才流動能力極高的資訊科技界。可惜,剛公布的新開放措施,相比起CEPA和CEPA2涵蓋的領域和開放措施,實在令我們業界失望。
早於今年四月,我曾聯同本地八個資訊科技業商會和專業團體,向負責與內地磋商CEPA的工商及科技局局長曾俊華會面,解釋業界對CEPA3的期望,並提出如何在CEPA框架下協助香港業界取得最大的益處。
此外,我們擬備了詳細的期望清單,羅列出九項建議,例如:香港資訊科技公司享有與內地同業同等的國民待遇、讓香港公司獲得與內地資訊科技公司相同範疇的營業執照、界定香港軟件商的產品及服務為《中華人民共和國政府採購法》所指的「本國貨物和服務」、縮短對香港製作的網絡遊戲的審批程序和時間,以與內地同業同等的審批機制處理香港公司的作品等等。這些建議的主要目的,並不是希望特區政府為業界爭取什麼「數」,而是希望本地資訊科技業可享有與內地同業同等的地位,在平等的政策環境下,來個公平的競爭。
還記得曾局長接到我們業界的建議,他承諾會好好研究,並向內地反映業界的期望。事實上,在今年五月初舉行的CEPA3業界論壇上,出席的工商及科技局官員也指出期望清單內,有好些建議獲特區政府認同,例如積極游說中央把香港軟件定為國產軟件、支持本地資訊科技專業人士應考內地專業試的時候以英文作答等。可惜,今天看看CEPA第三階段的措施,業界所有期望都一一落空。
誠然,兩地貿易磋商總不會「叩門便會開門」。不過,最令業界不明白的,是為何一些連特區政府也表示支持的建議,卻得不到內地部門的回應。即使建議書內較為中性的提議,例如增加兩地資訊科技人才的交流渠道,如容許具知名度的香港資訊科技專業團體在內地設立聯絡處等措施,在第三階段CEPA的範圍也沒有半點墨。究竟問題出在哪裡?是特區官員未能充分向內地反映香港業界的想法?還是由於內地仍視資訊科技和電訊為敏感行業,內地官員因此對香港業界的信心不夠?
無論是出於哪些原因,香港的資訊科技業界都十分樂意向內地部門詳細解釋我們建議。還記得曾俊華局長曾在今年上半年答應安排資訊科技界訪京團,讓業界人士直接向內地負責CEPA的官員游說解畫。可惜,至今CEPA3也塵埃落定,這個訪京團卻連影兒也沒有。事實上,安排不同的業界訪京團,由各個行業的業界人士直接與內地反映他們在內地營商所面對的問題、對CEPA的期望、以及解釋業界所提出的建議的背後理據,是最清楚和夠說服力的。
CEPA是兩地政府花了很多心力才能建立的貿易開放機制,也需要雙方主責官員努力維繫和業界的推動才能發揮它的作用。我相信,不單是資訊科技界;無論來自哪個行業的業界人士,都不希望看見CEPA最終會變成「一鼓作氣、再而衰、三而竭」。要令即將展開磋商的第四階段CEPA達到香港業界樂見的效果,特區政府該事不宜遲,籌組香港業界訪京團進行游說工作了。
