HONG KONG, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Hong Kong's seasonally
adjusted unemployment rate eased to 3.4% in the November to
January period, improving for the ninth consecutive quarters as
economic activities continued to revive, the government said on
Thursday.
In the October to December period, the unemployment rate
stood at 3.5%.
"With the economic activities gradually returned from the
epidemic to normalcy, coupled with a rebound in inbound tourism
alongside the full resumption of normal travel between Hong Kong
and the Mainland, the labour market conditions in the coming
months should be further improved," the government said.
