New Jiangsu-Macao Co-operation Park underway

MI73-P5a

In December 2018, Macao Chief Executive Chui Sai On travelled to Jiangsu for a two-day formal visit with officials of the Changzhou Government to discuss the planning and construction of the Jiangsu-Macao Co-operation Park in Changzhou Prefecture’s Wujin District.

Covering an area of five square kilometres, the Co-operation Park is designed to impact Macao’s economic diversification goals in a positive way.

Mr Chui met with the Secretary of the Changzhou Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, Wang Quan, and the Mayor of Changzhou, Ding Chun. They exchanged views on the five platform roles for the Co-operation Park project. They also discussed how to make use of Macao’s close ties with Portuguese-speaking Countries with respect to the market positioning of the park as well as the type of industries and services to be included.

The five platform roles of the Co-operation Park are designed to: support Macao’s integration into the country’s overall development while promoting the city’s moderate economic diversification; boost comprehensive co-operation between Macao and Jiangsu; support the undertaking of projects jointly commissioned by China and Portuguese-speaking Countries; encourage more innovative projects and business start-ups by Macao youths; and support training to enhance the skills of civil servants from Macao or Jiangsu.
