Cooperation zone's successes celebrated in anniversary publication

Eight-page spread highlights series of achievements made in Hengqin

In collaboration with the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, China Daily published an eight-page spread on Tuesday to celebrate the third anniversary of the zone's founding and showcase its major achievements over the past three years. 

Wedged between Macao and Zhuhai, Guangdong province, the cooperation zone is positioned as a new platform to boost Macao's economic diversification, a favorable space for Macao residents to live and work, a new model to enrich the practice of "one country, two systems", and a new high ground for building the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Focusing on this, the eight-page spread emphasized visual and layout design, highlighting the zone's efficient connectivity and integrated development with Macao.

Readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of Hengqin's leapfrog growth through four pages on the front, which feature an in-depth English article, a panoramic picture of Hengqin's night view, firework-shaped infographics and a twin lotus image made up of luminous drones. The twin lotus is the logo of the cooperation zone. 

The article details Hengqin's "four new industries" — scientific research and high-end manufacturing; traditional Chinese medicine; culture, tourism and conventions; as well as modern finance — while introducing the Macau New Neighbourhood, which is the first livelihood project built for Macao residents on the Chinese mainland.
