Develop the Smart Port and Conduct International Promotions

54. The Government will complete installation of a port community system next year. It will be equipped with functions such as shipment tracking, real-time transport information, electronic information and document retrieval, and port data analysis, enabling the flow and sharing of data among stakeholders in the maritime, port and logistics industries.

55. The Government will also organise more major events with international maritime organisations and enterprises to showcase to the world Hong Kong's maritime strengths.

Expand High Value-added Logistics Services

56. We are taking forward the Action Plan on Modern Logistics Development, and will release four quality logistics sites for industry to develop modern, high-end, multi-storey logistics facilities. The findings of the planning study on the development of modern logistics clusters in the Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area (NDA) will be published next year.

57. The Government will continue to strengthen co-operation in the logistics sector with the western part of Guangdong and other neighbouring areas, making good use of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) to expand the catchment area of our cargo services and facilitate more goods to go through Hong Kong.
