In October 2018, Xi visited a traditional Chinese medicine industrial park there and said the original goal of establishing Hengqin new area was to create conditions for the diversified development of Macao's economy.

Xi called for more policy support for developing new industries to help Macao's economy gain greater vitality.

Then came four state-level key laboratories, a youth business incubator, support for collaboration between Macao and mainland universities, border-crossing facilitation and major transport infrastructure projects, with more developments in the pipeline.

Twenty years after returning to the motherland, Macao stands ready to achieve even greater development.

Xi expressed his confidence in common progress when he spoke at a reception celebrating the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in late September.

He said: "We are confident that with the full backing of the motherland and the concerted efforts of our compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao who love the motherland as well as their communities, Hong Kong and Macao will prosper and progress alongside the mainland and embrace an even brighter future!"
