Bay area pushing for economic integration
The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is pushing forward with integration, with its combined economic output expected to surpass 15 trillion yuan ($2.15 trillion) in 2025, according to the annual session of the Guangdong Provincial People's Congress. The GBA brings the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions together with nine mainland cities in the economic powerhouse of Guangdong, including Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Zhuhai. The region is increasingly connected by faster transport and smoother cross-border flows. Physical connectivity has accelerated in recent years. Intercity railways have shifted from isolated lines to a networked system, pushing total rail mileage beyond 4,000 kilometers, while cross-border water passenger routes have expanded to 17 lines.
