The Wonders of Time and Effort

On the 30th anniversary of the Macao Arts Festival

Over the past 30 years, we have made an extraordinary journey, transforming ourselves from the clichéd “cultural desert” into a significant “cultural Macao”. The Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area establishes our city as an exchange and cooperation base grounded in a solid “Chinese culture as the mainstream, where diverse cultures coexist”, fully recognising our role in history, while clearly establishing the vitality of our forthcoming mission.
