可以告訴我文章的文法錯誤,以及內容和表達上的不足之處嗎?謝謝你的幫助。



Good morning everyone. Today I am going to talk about the wealth inequality in Hong Kong.

I have divided my presentation into three main parts. The first part is the causes of wealth inequality. The second part is the interpretation of the data. The last part is the solution to wealth inequality problem.

Let's begin by the causes of wealth inequality. The first reason is the Hong Kong population is aging. Unfortunately, the government is no complete retirement plan to protect the aged generation. Many old people only have low income. The second reason is the incomes of high skill workers are increase, and the rate of it is greater than the low skill workers. The third reason is the structure problem of tax. As we all know, Hong Kong commitment to free markets. Compare to other countries, the tax in Hong Kong is quite low. As a result, the rich only need to pay little tax. This three reasons make the wealth gap becomes wider and wider. A large gap exists between poor and rich.

Now, I would like to talk about the interpretation of the data. By the data of Gini coefficient form Census and Statistics Department, the Gini coefficient was increase from zero point five three three in 2006 to zero point five three seven in 2011. It reflects that the wealth gap increase day by day. In addition, according to the United Nations regulations, when the Gini coefficient is about zero point five, it means the income disparity is very wide. It is certain that the situation of income inequality in Hong Kong is very serious and need to solve quickly.

Today I am going to talk about the problem of wealth inequality in Hong Kong.
I would try to classify it into three main factors. The first is the causes of wealth inequality. The second is the interpretation of the data. The last is the solution to wealth inequality problem.
Let's talk about the causes of wealth inequality. Firstly, Hong Kong's population is becoming aging. Because the government has no overall retirement plan to assist the aged generation and many old people only got low income. The second one is that the income of the upper class is increasing and the rate of it is greater than that of the low class. The third one is something concerned with the structure of taxation. As we all know that Hong Kong depends on free trades and as compared with other countries, the income tax in Hong Kong is quite low. Therefore, the upper class only need to pay little tax. With all three factors the gap between upper and low classes is becoming wider and wider.
The next one to ralk about is the interpretation of the data. According to the data of Gini coefficient form Census and Statistics Department, the Gini coefficient was increase from 0.533 in 2006 to 0.537 in 2011. It reflects that the wealth gap had been increasing continuously. In addition, according to the United Nations' regulations, when the Gini coefficient is above 0.5, it means the income disparity is very significant. It is certain that the situation of income inequality in Hong Kong is very serious and need to solve quickly.
Then, I want to talk about the solution to wealth inequality problem. There are many things the government should do. Fristly, the government should improve the retirement plan, i.e. increase the old age allowance. Secondly, the government should offer some positions to low class with the wages which is above the law of the minimum wage. Thirdly, the government should increase the minimum wage. Lastly, the government should consider to adjust the tax structure, i.e.increase the progressive taxation.
