Chief Executive John Lee on Thursday said Hong Kong will boost its cooperation on tourism with Macau, as he made his first visit to the gaming hub since normal travel was fully resumed between the two places.
It was the second time Lee and Macau's Chief Executive Ho Iat-seng met in a week. Ho on Saturday led a delegation on a one-day trip to Hong Kong.
A government statement said Lee told his Macau counterpart during Thursday's visit that following the resumption of normal travel between the two SARs, it is now "the perfect time" to deepen tourism cooperation and promote multi-destination tourism in the Greater Bay Area.
Writing on social media, Lee said Hong Kong will strengthen its ties with other cities in the Greater Bay Area and work together to establish the region's tourism brand.
He added that Hong Kong will work with Macau to develop "twin-destination travel" to both cities.
The SAR delegation visited Macau's newest tourism, convention and exhibition facilities, and attended a luncheon hosted by Ho.
