It's a invasive species in T.W.

Should we take any action to control it?

This species has occurred as an ex-captive bird in HK before (HK List Cat III). Of course we should always be concerned that exotic species may be introduced to HK and become established, but perhaps this is not one of the more likely ones as I beleive that it is imported because of its song. Thus it is largely males which are imported.

Of course we should really be seeking to get the cage bird trade in wild birds banned completely for both conservation and human health reasons.
