GD TODAY: GUANGDONG GOVERNOR SENDS CHINESE NEW YEAR GREETINGS VIA VIDEO

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 15 (Bernama) -- GD Today recently released the video of the 2024 Chinese New Year address from the Governor of Guangdong, Wang Weizhong to overseas Chinese, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan compatriots, and friends worldwide on behalf of the Guangdong Provincial People's Government and the people of Guangdong Province.

According to GD Today in a statement, 2023 was a landmark year for reform and development in Guangdong, as well as a year that Guangdong's popularity continues to flourish, and exchanges become more convenient.

Guangdong has been given a strategic pivot for the new development pattern of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, a demonstration site for high-quality development, and a new positioning for the leading place of Chinese-style modernisation.

The economy of Guangdong has accelerated its recovery and development, and its population has exceeded 150 million with streets crowded with people and vehicles, while scenic areas are filled with touring enthusiasts.

In 2023, the gross domestic product (GDP) of Guangdong ranked first in the country for 35 consecutive years, becoming the first province exceeding 13 trillion Chinese yuan. (100 Chinese yuan = RM66.44)

Meanwhile the province’s regional innovation capacity has been the reigning champion for seven consecutive years among domestic competitors. Guangdong's openness is more profound in the process of embracing the world.

As this year marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Guangdong will further take good advantages of "overseas Chinese" and regard them as a bridge to expand its high-level opening-up to the outside world.
