Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone and Economic Zone on the West Coast of the Taiwan Strait

151.     In the 12th Five-Year Plan, the development of western China, the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone and the Economic Zone on the West Coast of the Taiwan Strait have been made key strategies of regional development.  To capitalise on the opportunities in these areas, we plan to strengthen and deepen our multi-faceted co-operation with the Chengdu-Chongqing area and Fujian by setting up dedicated liaison units in Chongqing and Fujian.

Taiwan

152.     We are actively preparing for the establishment of the Hong Kong Economic, Trade and Cultural Office in Taiwan, with a view to promoting multi-faceted, multi-level exchanges between the two places.  Apart from enhancing economic and trade co-operation, the two places will also set up standing notification mechanisms on food safety and healthcare emergencies, strengthen legal co-operation in civil and commercial matters, and step up exchanges on education.
