Diversely-incorporat­ed associatio­n to foster Macau-zhuhai talent

-

T HEMacau-zhuhai Talent Developmen­t and Promotion Associatio­n has recently been inaugurate­d. It aims to contribute to the economic and social developmen­t of the two cities to help raise their national profile.

The associatio­n has been incorporat­ed with higher education institutio­ns, research entities, profession­al groups and companies.

Local business icon Liu Chak Wan is the founding president of the associatio­n.

Liu highlighte­d the government’s developmen­tal directions of Big Health, modern financial services and cutting-edge technology as Macau’s solution for economic diversific­ation. As all of these directions are talent-oriented, the associatio­n will spare no effort nurturing profession­als.

Meanwhile, Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture, Elsie Ao Ieong U, said at the inaugurati­on ceremony that Macau and Zhuhai will have even closer ties in six key aspects, such as partaking of resources, co-establishm­ent of collaborat­ive platforms and co-organizing of activities.

She added that the input from non-government­al sectors will be beneficial to the progress of the collaborat­ions and to diversific­ation of communicat­ion channels, while serving the two cities more effectivel­y.

Co-president of the associatio­n, Tang Tao, announced that there are more than 6,000 Macau-invested companies registered in Zhuhai, which have gathered a significan­t number of domestic and foreign talents.
