The HK government insisted to refuse to shut down the customs. Since midnight of today (30 Jan), restrictions on entry of mainlanders have been enforced at only 6 departure ports, including the High-Speed Rail HK West Kowloon Station, Sha Tau Kok, Man Kam To, Hung Hom, Tuen Mun Ferry Pier, and China Ferry Terminal. The effectiveness of such measures is being challenged.
According to statistics from the immigration department, the total volume of mainland passengers at all ports increased by 3,624 to 27,780, an increase of 15% from the day before to yesterday.
Most mainlanders arrived at HK via the Hong Kong Airport. Its passengers volume was 9,196, an increase of 28% from prior day. The second most was 4,695 at Shenzhen Bay, an increase of 11.3%. The third most was 4,343 at the Luohu port, which was also unrestricted, with an increase of 19%. The total of only these three ports far exceeded the total of the 6 ports where customs will be closed. The total of these three busiest ports reached 18,234 people, accounting for 65% of total passenger arrivals.

Passengers Entering Hong Kong from China Say in Mandarin They Won't Follow Self-Quarantine Rule as They are "Not Sick"
The Hong Kong Government has been enforcing the 14-day self-quarantine measure since Feb 8. Many people from China rushed through Shenzhen Bay port to enter Hong Kong on Feb 7 before the "deadline". The Shenzhen Bay Port was crowded.
When entering Hong Kong, people speaking only Mandarin said that as they were "not sick", self-segregation would not be unnecessary and they would not follow such rule.
Ms. Zeng, who came from Jiangmen, Guangdong in China, said, “I drove over alone today, as the public transportation in China has stopped.” Ms. Zeng wanted to stay in China for a few more days, but as she learned that Hong Kong is preparing to implement new anti-epidemic measures, she immediately went to Hong Kong with her two sons. She visits China on every public holiday and she criticized the government’s new proposals. "Isn’t China advocating 14-day quarantine at home? I didn’t go there. China is well sealed! You see, there are many human contacts".
When asked about the customs clearance dispute, she thinks it was enough to block people from Hubei. And as she was from Guangdong, there is no need for her to be quarantined. She even pointed out that it was unnecessary to quarantine for 14 days and for home quarantine persons to wear electronic tracking bracelets. Data show that Guangdong has the second most diagnosed cases after Hubei Province in China.
