A remedy for success
Guangdong zone provides an enterprising space for TCM technology specialist
Wong has bought a property in Hengqin's Macao New Neighborhood, the first livelihood project built for Macao residents on the Chinese mainland. Covering an area of 190,000 square meters, the community consists of 27 buildings and some 4,200 apartments, with green spaces accounting for 35 percent.
"My baby was born this year, and the whole family is embracing a new life in our new home in Hengqin, which is a thriving and vibrant place," Wong says, adding the new residence cut down the commute time, bringing more convenience. He chose a three-room apartment with a balcony.
Spanning about 106 square kilometers, Hengqin Island is nestled in the southern part of Zhuhai, and is separated from Macao by a river. The unique location makes it play an irreplaceable role in connecting and interacting with Macao. It is home to the Guangdong-Macao In-depth Cooperation Zone, which was established in 2021 by the central government to foster closer integration between the two regions.
The zone has become a hub for innovation and entrepreneurship, hosting nearly 6,500 Macao-invested enterprises and providing a platform for new industries.
