Soon-to-be chairman of Hung Shui Kiu Industry Park's board of directors Jeffrey Lam says many enterprises show interest in investing in the Northern Metropolis. Hung Shui Kiu Industry Park is a prominent part of the megaproject by the border.
To accelerate the industry development in the Northern Metropolis, the government has established three companies and injected a 10-billion-dollar fund to each of them. Authorities has also set up a board of directors in Hung Shui Kiu Industry Park, which will take effect from June 1st.
Speaking on a TVB programme, the soon-to-be board Chairman Jeffrey Lam says that their primary work is to recruit senior management staff for the 23-hectare industry park such as the chief executive. Lam says one idea is to establish a one-stop service centre within the park to help enterprises set up bank accounts, complete business registration and even arrange schools for the children of those doing business there.
The executive councillor reveals that many mainland and overseas enterprises have contacted him about investing in the park, including an American concern expressing hope to build a big data centre. But Lam says fewer enquiries come from the property sector.
Asked if the 10 billion dollars are sufficient for enacting the plans, Lam says it is difficult to make a prediction on that, adding that bond issuance could be a method in the future if the park's development goes well.
