Gov’t surveying land plots for iconic , including a technology park

 MAy25

The government is currently surveying several land plots in search of a suitable location to build a technology park, Chief Executive (CE) Sam Hou Fai confirmed during a press conference held yesterday to review the inspection visit of Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office of the Central Committee and the State Council.

In response to media inquiries, Sam said he led a delegation accompanying Xia on visits to various land sites in Macau to assess potential locations for a technology park aimed at supporting the government’s economic diversification efforts.

“He [Xia] visited several venues and locations, all carefully selected,” Sam said. He added that the group focused on observing maritime and coastal areas, envisioning future developments aligned with these zones.

“We are making plans for maritime development. We must integrate our future projects with our country’s broader vision for the South China Sea,” Sam noted.

“These development plans must support Macau’s long-term growth and must not disrupt the Pearl River Delta region. That’s why we need to handle maritime planning with great caution. We must make full use of the maritime area granted to us by the central government. This was also a key point in the most recent Policy Address.”

“We went up to Macau Tower for a bird’s-eye view of the area. We looked at the plot in front of Ocean Gardens [Zone C] and the former Ocean World site – a large coastal stretch in Taipa. We’re going to transform this into an iconic cultural and tourism project,” the CE added.

According to Sam, Xia showed strong interest in the proposal. “A few years ago, we also proposed an ecological park in Coloane. I’d like to express appreciation to Director Xia for taking time to better understand Macau’s maritime potential, which we aim to integrate with culture, tourism, and technology.”

Another plot Xia visited was the former Jockey Club land, along with a site near Avenida Wai Long, close to the airport, both under consideration for new development projects
