Hong Kong to set up high-level advisory body to foster development of maritime industry

HONG KONG, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) — China’s Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) will establish a “Hong Kong Maritime and Port Development Board”, a high-level advisory body to assist the HKSAR government in formulating policies and long-term development strategies, HKSAR Chief Executive John Lee said Wednesday.
The new body will be chaired by a non-official member, with other members largely from the maritime sector, said Lee while delivering his third policy address to the HKSAR Legislative Council.
It is expected to support the HKSAR government in policy implementation more effectively and promote the sustainable development of Hong Kong’s maritime industry, Lee said. ■
