Chief Executive Mr Chui Sai On met with the Governor of Hainan Province, Liu Cigui, this week in hopes of expanding cooperation in fields such as tourism, cultural affairs and services related to trade.
According to an official statement, past cooperation between Hainan and Macau has paved the way for closer ties, in particular the launch of a regular direct air service between the two locations last year. Such initiatives will contribute to furthering tourism development, boosting social exchanges and helping trade.
Liu said the two regions could collaborate to develop a number of two-center holiday tours, with Hainan complementing Macau’s status as a “world center of tourism and leisure.”
The Hainan Governor briefed Chui on the latest developments in Hainan, revealing that the province’s positioning as an “international tourism destination” could be comprised of several components, including the province being a platform for international diplomacy via events such as Boao Forum for Asia, Annual Conference.
Moreover, the Chief Executive said Hainan and Macau could serve as a reference point for each other in terms of development, as the two places are both in the process of establishing their respective development goals.
