Details	:	The NMDS is the first strategic action agenda devised by the HKSAR Government with a spacial concept and strategic mindset going beyond the administrative boundary between HK and Shenzhen. It contemplates new action directions and approach for the long-term development prospects of Hong Kong as it attempts to integrate us with both Shenzhen and the Greater Bay Area. The first three Planning Principles of the strategy document, which was first introduced in the 2021 Policy Address, articulate Urban-Rural Integration, Proactive Conservation and High-quality Outdoor Eco-Recreation/Tourism outlets which are ground- breaking with the vision to create, for the first time in Hong Kong, a unique metropolitan landscape aiming for the co-existence of Development and Conservation. This holistic approach to strategic planning, if properly executed, should deliver a city good for people to live in, work and travel. Properly implemented the NMDS will represent a “paradigm shift in respect of mode of thinking for HK-SZ co-operation, spacial concept, policy formulation and institutional establishment”. The presentation will consider some of the key questions that will need to be addressed if these bold and innovative ideas are to be realized.
