China Outlines Responsibilities for Developing Hengqin Guangdong-Macao Zone

What’s new: Southern China’s Guangdong provincial government outlined the division of functions and responsibilities for development of the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao Deep Cooperation Zone in a guideline document issued Wednesday.

Hengqin is a small island to the west of Macao and a district of Zhuhai city in Guangdong. The Hengqin Guangdong-Macao Deep Cooperation Zone, rolled out in 2019, aims to create a synergistic relationship between Macao and Hengqin by facilitating business, trade and the movement of people across borders.
