With an investment of 500 million yuan, Vanguard’s logistics center has been completed and is about to be put into use. The 100-million-yuan joint program with Macau University of Technology is under way. The new district in Banfu reserved more than 4,000 mu of land for development. In the afternoon of the day before yesterday, Chen Liangxian, Deputy Party Secretary and Mayor of Zhongshan City, makes an inspection tour to Banfu. Chen said that Banfu has obvious late-mover advantage. He encourages Banfu Town to make clear development orientation so as to form core competiveness. Wu Yuexia, Vice Mayor of Zhongshan, and Liu Chuanpei, Vice Chairman and Director of Zhongshan Education Bureau, accompany the inspection tour.
Last November, Zhongshan Municipal Government signs a framework agreement with Macau University of Technology to establish a comprehensive university in Banfu Town. Yesterday, Chen Liangxian first visits the location for the new university. Covering an area of 1,800 mu, the university will be located at the foot of a mountain, the former location of a shoe factory. He says that the university will bring new development opportunities to Banfu. He also asks related departments to join hands to implement the program.
