President Xi Jinping has urged Hong Kong and Macao to boost collaboration and embrace a 'new stage' of development under the 'One Country, Two Systems' framework. The message came during a meeting with Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive John Lee in Macao, timed to the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to China. 🎉
Xi emphasized the need for both regions to learn from each other and prioritize economic growth, while Lee pledged to focus on improving livelihoods and accelerating integration into the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area—a mega-project linking 11 cities into a tech and innovation hub. 🚀
💡 Why it matters: With young professionals and entrepreneurs driving Asia's economic future, cross-regional partnerships like these could unlock new opportunities in tech, finance, and sustainability. As Lee put it: 'Hong Kong is ready to play its part in national development.'
