Dear MEL Institute, we are developing an evaluation program on the GD scheme in Hong Kong. Would you please suggest what survey method we should use?

Hi MEL professionals, I am interested in the way that elderly programs focus services on the target groups. I mean, a program needs to choose the right person and exclude ineligible applicants. For example, what should elderly recipients of OALA under the GD scheme do if their income exceeds the limits?

Hi MEL Institute, I found it was difficult for me to distinguish some similar programs. For example, I wonder if you can help me figure out whether the former OAA applicable to applicants aged 65 to 69 under the GD Scheme is replaced by OALA or not?

Hello Dr. MEL, we hope to evaluate the operation of OAA and OALA under the Guangdong Scheme. We are struggling with which method should we adopt: the secondary data or collect the data by ourselves?

Following the previous question, may I also ask how much allowance the older adults can get from the OAA under the GD scheme currently? We are planning an evaluation program on elderly allowance.

Hi, Dr. MEL. I’ve learned that the strategy adopted to recognize the target recipient should also be evaluated in program evaluation. I wonder how SWD can know that the recipients of the GD scheme are living in GD?

Hello, MEL institute. I really think the OALA under Guangdong Scheme is great! Would you please tell me if there are also other allowances or services in Guangdong Scheme under Social Security Allowance Scheme?

Following the previous post, may I ask that whether OAA recipients under the GD Scheme can also convert to OALA under the GD Scheme?

I’ve learned that some programs may be composed of various schemes to suit different needs. For example, older adults can apply for different allowances or supplements under Social Security Allowance Scheme in Hong Kong. Therefore, I wonder if it’s also the case between OALA and OALA under Guangdong Scheme. Can older adults who are now receiving OALA convert to OALA under the Guangdong Scheme?
