The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is envisioned to be a unified hub for economic growth, supported by high-speed rail transport. The Greater Bay Area is comprised of two Special Administrative Regions plus nine cities in Guangdong. The central government has invested over 470 billion yuan or 69 billion U.S. dollars to upgrade the rail network in the area. The goal for 2035 is to ensure passengers traveling to any city within the hub arrive within an hour. Terence Chan, founder of Enroute Lab, also an incubator helping Hong Kong startups explore the Greater Bay Area, shares his own experiences with high-speed rail with CGTN.
