Hey, amigos! 🌟 Big news from China's latest political pow-wow! Political advisors are chatting about how Hong Kong and Macao can amp up their roles in China's grand plan to open up on a whole new level. Let's dive in! 🏊♂️
On Friday, China's top political advisory body, the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (that's a mouthful! 😂), held a virtual session. Wang Huning, the big cheese (and member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee), chaired the meeting.
So, what's the scoop? 🍿 They're brainstorming how HK and Macao can be game-changers in developing new systems for a higher-standard open economy. Think smoother flows of people, goods, capital, and even data! 📊🚀
Advisors from all over – Beijing, Fujian, HK, Macao, you name it – jumped on video calls to share ideas. They suggested boosting coordination across Guangdong, HK, and Macao to make things flow like a well-oiled machine. 🛠️
They also want to level up HK's status as an international powerhouse for finance, shipping, and trade. And Macao? They're looking to leverage its unique connection as a bridge between China and Portuguese-speaking countries. How cool is that? 🧐
Of course, all this is to support national policies that help HK and Macao thrive. Wang emphasized actionable and targeted recommendations – no vague stuff here! 🎯
This meeting is part of the CPPCC's regular hustle to consult, oversee, and participate in state affairs. Democracy in action, folks! 🗳️
Stay tuned, because with these dynamic duo regions stepping up, China's global opening is about to get a whole lot more exciting! 🌏🔥
