BACKGROUND
As a supporting
organisation of this Pearl River Delta exchange trip organised by The
Bauhinia Foundation Research Centre, Sir Edward Youde Scholars Association
cordially invites you to an exchange trip to the Delta in late June. Once
considered as the world's sweatshop dependant on low-wage and low-margin,
the Delta has indeed undergone fundamental economic re-structuring and now
becomes the most economically dynamic region of Southern China. It is even
estimated that the Delta's GDP will exceed New York and London in the next
few decades. This trip is an exceptional opportunity for you to gain an
insider perspective into these drastic structural changes in the Delta. You
will also see the cultural faces of Guangzhou and gain an insight into how
they preserve their historical heritages while developing their economies.
This trip also includes many opportunities for you to exchange your view
with leading academics, businessmen and government officials. Last but not
least, we will examine the role and opportunities for Hong Kong people in
the Delta, especially for the youth, in this exciting era. DATE ----- 24
-27 June (Friday to Monday) HIGHLIGHTS ------ - An exclusive visit to the
Yantian Container Port (鹽田港), one of the world's busiest ports - A tour to
