- Hong Kong and Macao Shenzhen Bay pearl Free Trade Zone Airport integration development
In the process of promoting infrastructure Unicom, the Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and the Great Bay area should strictly comply with the standard requirements of the commuter of the metropolitan area, create a world-class airport group, strengthen the coordination of the airport in the bay area and the communication of the traffic, and strive for the opening of the airspace resources.
?
In 2017, the bay area of Guangdong, Hongkong and Macau ranked first in the global Bay Area in terms of area, population, airport passenger volume and the number of universities in the world. In the future, the Tai Wan area is probably the largest Bay area and metropolitan area in the world, and the population will reach 1.2 to 140 million in 2050.
?
The construction of the Great Bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao is a major decision of the Party Central Committee. As the plan is about to be announced, how to build a high quality and high starting point in the Great Bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao has aroused the full discussion of the academic and local governments, which has become an important hot spot in the current national regional development strategy. The Comprehensive Development Research Institute of China (Shenzhen) has carried out a series of studies around the bay area of Guangdong, Hongkong and Macau. On the basis of these studies, the following five suggestions are proposed for the construction of the bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.
?
Building the world class metropolitan area of Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Australia
?
The international first-class Bay area is a world-class city cluster. The common goal of urban agglomeration evolution is the world class metropolitan area. Looking at the world economic map today, the most vigorous and fastest growing regions are mostly distributed in coastal areas. A world bank data shows that 60% of the total global economy comes from the port and Gulf region and its direct hinterland.
?
In the process of promoting infrastructure Unicom, the Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and the Great Bay area should strictly comply with the standard requirements of the commuter of the metropolitan area, create a world-class airport group, strengthen the coordination of the airport in the bay area and the communication of the traffic, and strive for the opening of the airspace resources. We should speed up the organic integration of high-speed rail, urban rail and subway, and build rail commuters as the core. We should actively promote the construction of a major highway for the Pan Pearl River Delta, strengthen the traffic links between cities, and enhance the efficiency of port clearance in the bay area. Improve the quality of passenger and freight services, facilitate the smooth traffic and eliminate the last mile bottleneck.
Taking the airport as an example, the airport capacity is saturated, the airport facilities still need to be expanded, the airport facilities still need to be expanded, the airspace resources are tight, the traffic connection between the airports is mainly dependent on the freeway, the traffic efficiency is low, the air hub is not connected with the high speed rail and the rail transit network, and the management mode between the mainland airport and the Hong Kong and Macao airports is different. Lack of coordination. The coordination of these infrastructure construction and management systems requires greater depth of cooperation among cities to jointly improve commuting efficiency in the big bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.

Promoting the dual transformation of Hong Kong and Macao into the overall development of Tai Wan District
?
At this stage, innovation driven and urban transformation have become a double "variation" of the global financial center. Its development shows a clear trend: the global financial center has transformed into the "Finance + technology" center, transforming from a single big city to a metropolis.
?
Hongkong has always been one of the third financial centers in the world. It also faces the problem of double transformation. Hongkong has unique advantages in finance, free trade and legal system. But it faces the problems of slow economic growth, narrowing of the structure, the widening gap between the rich and the poor, the aging society, and so on. In the process of transformation, Hongkong Through the development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and the cooperation between Shenzhen and Hong Kong, we will create an international innovation center in Tai Wan district.
?
In fact, Macao has the same dual transformation. Its development is facing the problems of slow development and slow development, lack of space and the shortage of high-end talents. How to combine the elements of innovation, develop the enclave economy and the interrelation between the surrounding areas, and promote the development of economic and pluralism, has become the breakthrough point of the transformation and development of Macao.
?
Promoting the free flow of elements in the Great Bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Australia
?
To promote double transformation of Hong Kong and Macao, factor mobility is the key. The biggest feature of Guangdong, Hongkong and Macao is "one country, two systems", Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao are divided into three separate customs areas. The three elements are not free to flow, and the short-term flow of elements will still be limited (the barriers between Guangdong city elements flow also need to be solved). This is the biggest difference between the Great Bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and the Great Bay area and the other Bay areas in the world. only when elements flow freely can we achieve optimal allocation of resources and maximize the role of resources. The free flow of goods, funds, personnel, technology and information in the Tai Wan area is the key to the construction of the bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.
"Hong Kong, Macao and deep panicle pearl" free trade zone Alliance
?
There are three free trade test areas in Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Tai Wan area, while Hong Kong and Macao are already free trade ports. How to promote synergy and integration between regions in the Great Bay area under the circumstances of "one country, two systems" and three customs areas is an important path to bring into play the superposition effect and scale effect of the trade zone system in the Great Bay area. The establishment of "2 (Hong Kong, Macao, two free port) +3 (Shenzhen Qianhai snake mouth, Guangzhou Nansha, Zhuhai Hengqin three self trade test zone)" free trade zone alliance ", can be in the system, law, standards and other aspects of the higher level of regional integration development.
?
We will vigorously promote the institutional coordination of the League of free trade zones and promote the coordination of the institutional mechanisms and laws and regulations of the three self trade test zones to promote the two-way convenient flow of the elements between the three FTA and Hong Kong and Macao. To promote mutual recognition and docking between the three FTA and Hong Kong and Macao in terms of standards and certification. At the same time, the Council established FTA alliance, strengthen coordination, the formation of bay area city group close integration and development, and promote the "The Belt and Road national cooperation.
?
Building the Great Bay area of China
?
In terms of geography, there is no bigger Bay Area in China. In 2017, the bay area of Guangdong, Hongkong and Macau ranked first in the global Bay Area in terms of area, population, airport passenger volume and the number of universities in the world. In the future, the Tai Wan area is probably the largest Bay area and metropolitan area in the world, and the population will reach 1.2 to 140 million in 2050.
?
In addition to being the champion of volume, the quality of the bay area is also expected to form a world-class Bay area. At present, the high level development of the industrial structure in the bay area and the outstanding ability of innovation are also important features of the Da Wan district. Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and the Great Bay area has become the largest number of colleges and universities in the world, the most intensive talents, the most innovative leading enterprises, the highest innovation market level, the core area of the implementation of the national innovation driven strategy, and the leading innovation ability in the world. The innovation chain and industrial chain from R & D, fund-raising, manufacturing, industrialization to trade and transportation is becoming more and more perfect in Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Tai Wan district. The innovation of science and technology has begun to enter the stage of accelerated development, and is building a more three-dimensional and more comprehensive form of "science and technology Bay Area". In the future, the bay area of Guangdong, Hongkong and Macau will be the unique Bay Area in the world.
