*******************************************************************

     The Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, met the Secretary of the CPC Jiangmen Municipal Committee, Mr Chen Anming, today (March 19) to exchange views on further deepening Hong Kong's co-operation with Jiangmen and promoting the high-quality development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA). Also attending the meeting were the Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, Mr Erick Tsang Kwok-wai, and the Secretary for Environment and Ecology, Mr Tse Chin-wan.

     Mr Lee welcomed Mr Chen and his delegation to Hong Kong. Noting Jiangmen is a hub and gateway city in the western part of the GBA, and that the city is experiencing rapid development in advanced manufacturing, Mr Lee said that Hong Kong, being an international city in the GBA, enjoys the unique advantages of having the strong support of the motherland and being closely connected to the world under the "one country, two systems" principle. There is vast potential for collaboration between the two places. Hong Kong will continue to give full play to its roles as a "super connector" and a "super value-adder", leveraging its highly internationalised and market-oriented business environment with its pool of professional services talent to explore business opportunities with Mainland enterprises and inject new impetus into the high-quality development of the GBA.

     Mr Lee expressed his confidence that Hong Kong and Jiangmen will continue to complement each other's strengths, enhancing co-operation in areas such as green industries, scientific research and elderly care services, and jointly building an international first-class bay area ideal for living, working and travelling.
