Immigration head facilitated O'Sullivan move to SAR

The immigration chief has revealed that he personally reached out to snooker superstar Ronnie O'Sullivan, recommending a suitable visa scheme for the Briton to come to Hong Kong. The 48-year-old, known as "the Rocket" for his fast and attacking playing style, recently became a Hong Kong resident through the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, saying the territory is a great place to live because of the food, culture and a low tax regime. In a televised interview on Saturday, Director of Immigration Benson Kwok revealed he found out from a friend that O'Sullivan had interest to develop his career in the SAR. "As the director of the Immigration, of course, I have to recommend some visa schemes that are suitable for him. He quickly chose the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, and his application was approved by the committee on quality migrants and professionals," Kwok said. "The result was ideal because O'Sullivan has been helpful, promoting Hong Kong's attractiveness." Labour and welfare minister Chris Sun, for his part, said the snooker player's decision to obtain Hong Kong residency was a testament to the city's attractiveness. "The fact that O'Sullivan has decided to come to Hong Kong and become a part of us speaks volumes about the attraction of the SAR," Sun said. "We hope to achieve more success, because we truly believe in the attraction of Hong Kong. Be it our tax system, our natural beauty, the convenience, the great food and all the great things here in Hong Kong, it's a huge attraction for top talent all over the world."
