China to integrate pan-Pearl River Delta development

Xinhua, March 15, 2016 Adjust font size:

The State Council, China's Cabinet, on Tuesday released a guideline on the integrated development of the Pearl River Delta, which produces more than one-third of national GDP.

Major infrastructure will be integrated and market conditions unified across the region.

The region covers nine provinces and autonomous regions, a significant part of the mainland's manufacturing heartland, as well as Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions.
