Ready for a glimpse into Hong Kong’s next growth spurt? 🚀 Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng just shared some 👀 insights at the Global Financial Leaders’ Investment Summit, shining a spotlight on the city’s game-changing role in the Chinese mainland’s upcoming 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030).
He Lifeng, who’s also a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, framed Hong Kong as a real MVP: over the last five years (2021–2025), this special administrative region tapped into its unique strengths—like its rule-of-law backbone, world-class financial markets, and global network—to boost both national reform and its own stability. 📈
Looking ahead, the Chinese mainland’s development blueprint is rolling out the red carpet for Hong Kong to:
- Fuel global financial governance research and practice, pushing for smarter, more inclusive rules 🤝
- Build on high-standard institutional opening-up—think smoother cross-border fintech links and more investment lanes 💡
- Team up with other economies to tackle trade challenges and keep the world market stable 🌏
For the Gen-Z and millennial crowd in South and Southeast Asia, this means more digital finance collabs, fresh startup hubs, and a reliable backdrop for career moves—whether you’re coding the next e-wallet app in Bengaluru or launching a green fintech in Jakarta. 🌱💻
In short, Hong Kong is set to play a bigger, bolder part in shaping global finance—powered by the Chinese mainland’s support and a vision for a steadier, more connected economic future. Stay tuned for the next chapter in this dynamic story! 🎉
