Macao is small, with a land area of only 33.3 square kilometers and a population of less than 690,000, but Macao carries great weight.
Since its return to China 25 years ago, Macao has been closely connected with the motherland. With the support of the central government, Macao has achieved remarkable results in various fields such as the economy and people's livelihood. In 2023, Macao's GDP amounted to approximately MOP 379.5 billion, an increase of seven times compared to 1999. Macao's per capita GDP stood at approximately MOP 560,000, ranking ninth globally and third in Asia. Besides, the land area has grown from 22 square kilometers in 1999 to the current 33.3 square kilometers. This is an expanded Macao, a developing Macao, and a Macao that is running ahead.
For 25 years, Macao has been full of splendor. A quarter of a century has witnessed countless stories of Macao. The lotus flower in prosperity blooms with a unique redness, and we eagerly await its future!
