The Innovation and Technology Bureau has finally got the go-ahead after three years of filibustering from pan-democrat lawmakers, who see the brand new government department as a pointless waste of public money.

Rezoning Ray Here’s an innovative new concept for you: Using this astonishing new technology, with a single stroke of a pen you’d be able to turn impossibly beautiful, rural country park land into a dusty, ugly morass of concrete housing. It’s the future!
LegChat Instead of the occasional embarrassing WhatsApp chat leak, this messaging app would be the perfect social media platform for the city’s eager lawmakers. With LegChat, it would be easier than ever for lawmakers to get in touch with their admiring constituents, by sharing inappropriate sentiments and barely-clothed photos.

What if we were to build another, even more sciencey park? That would be BOUND to attract the startups and big tech firms who passed over Hong Kong every other time the government tried to entice them in. Lenovo, we’re looking at you!
