Zhongshan Municipal Party Secretary Chen Xudong led a delegation team to Hong Kong and Macao late February for study and exchange in terms of cooperation and development of the “Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area”.

The Zhongshan delegation had a panel discussion with head officials of Hong Kong and Macao on the topic of “joint development of the Bay Area” and reached a consensus on further cooperation and direction.

Chen Xudong believed that Zhongshan will have new developmental opportunities as the “Bay Area” has been included in the national development strategic planning. In particular, Zhongshan will have more competitive regional advantages with the upcoming Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Bridge under construction in the future. He hoped that Zhongshan and Hong Kong and Macao can establish more in-depth, wide-ranging and high-level cooperation in the development of the “Bay Area”.

During the trip, the Zhongshan delegation also visited Sun Wah Group, The University of Hong Kong, Macao University of Science and Technology, Macao Young Entrepreneur Incubation Center, Mandarin’s House (Zheng Guanying’s Family House) in Macao, and etc.
