Summary:Abstract Economic cooperation among mainland China, Hong Kong and Macao has deepened quickly since 2019. A roadmap for China’s southeastern province Guangdong promotes a common development of nine municipalities within the Pearl River Delta and the two Special Administrative Regions.

However, the ambitious plan faces impediments such as political tensions, trade confl icts and the COVID-19 pandemic.
