The Chief Executive (CE) Ho Iat Seng has said the government will continue to make good use of its special status and unique advantages of “backing the motherland and connecting the world,” by continuing to promote industry-university-research cooperation and by transforming academic research into products and services.
Ho was speaking at yesterday’s ordinary meeting of the Science and Technology Committee, which he chairs.
According to Ho, besides the ongoing promotion of science and technology, there will also be improvements in cross-border circulation mechanisms, and high-quality scientific and technological projects, that will build an efficient scientific and technological cooperation platform.
Ho said scientific and technological innovation are cornerstones of social development.
As the country undergoes comprehensive reforms, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) will continue to promote and expand the economic openness of China to the world, he said.
Ho said the high-tech industry is one of the four key development industries that comprise the “1+4” strategy for the development of Macau’s economy and diversification.
The SAR government is working hard to improve scientific and technological innovation, optimize the innovation development environment, and use the high-tech industry to accelerate the implementation of the diversified economic development plan.
