Zhuhai Tour
To strengthen connections and understanding within the Greater Bay Area, the Alliance organized a Zhuhai tour on March 26, 2024. During the trip, members first visited the Zhuhai Planning Exhibition Hall to gain deeper insights into Zhuhai’s urban development blueprint. This was followed by a meeting with the Zhuhai Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism and Sports to discuss regional tourism development. Through arrangements by Kwoon Chung Bus Holdings, the Alliance also conducted a site visit to the New Youth City Garden to better understand foreign worker accommodation facilities and management models, providing valuable reference for Lantau’s future development.
Human Resources Seminar
To promote the understanding of supplementary labour scheme and management among Lantau enterprises, the Alliance held a Human Resources Seminar at the Sheraton Hong Kong Tung Chung Hotel on July 9, 2024. The event was supported by Kwoon Chung Bus Holdings, and it featured representatives from Zhangzhou International Business sharing insights on imported worker recruitment and accommodation arrangements. Representatives from Hong Kong Resort Company Limited also provided detailed analysis of current practices and considerations in imported worker recruitment, offering valuable operational references for Alliance members.
Public Consultation on South Lantau Eco-Recreation Corridor Study
On July 14, 2024, the Alliance submitted a proposal to the Civil Engineering and Development Department regarding the development of the South Lantau Eco-Recreation Corridor. The submission emphasised the need to accelerate the project and presented four specific recommendations: comprehensive planning of land and sea transport facilities to improve accessibility; establishment of “parallel bus terminals” and dedicated tourist bus routes; optimisation of the new Cheung Sha pier design and operations; and thorough planning of supporting facilities based on target visitor numbers. The Alliance hopes these comprehensive plans will allow various sectors to benefit from the development of the South Lantau Eco-Recreation Corridor as soon as possible.
