Art troupe reform - Ya Odong: The Arts Advisory Committee watches art troupe performances and listens to opinions to "objectively" assess quality KPIs.
[News Channel Now] The government is proposing a reform of the subsidy system for arts groups, in which half of the subsidy amount will be attached to box office, sponsorship and key performance indicators, including qualitative aspects such as artistic level and quality of creation. Yip Oh-dong, deputy chairman of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council, said the Arts Advisory Committee can assess the "quality" level of art groups by watching their performances.
Yip Odong, Vice Chairman of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council: "In the past, there were some art groups that did not perform well in individual performances, and even the artistic level was not up to par. This can be seen from an appreciation and understanding of the plans. You might think that art is very subjective, but when different friends and different members of the industry have the same opinions on individual shows, it can become an objective opinion on individual shows.
