Features: This book is a research achievement of the major research project of the key research base of humanities and social sciences of the Ministry of Education in 2001 (Approval No.: 0lJAZJDGAl7003). The book constructs a sustainable development indicator system to measure and analyze the sustainable development of the Hong Kong, Macao, and Pearl River Delta region and cities. After the rapid development period of reform and opening-up, the Hong Kong, Macao, and Pearl River Delta region still maintains a strong economic growth potential, a positive development trend that is remarkable both in China and other regions in the world. At the same time, the resource and environmental issues left behind by the rapid economic development will still be important constraints on the future sustainable development of the Hong Kong, Macao, and Pearl River Delta region. With the continuous integration, governance, and adjustment of the Hong Kong, Macao, and Pearl River Delta region, further development will be achieved in various aspects, and the unsustainable conditions in some areas will also be improved to a certain extent. The sustainable development of the Hong Kong, Macao, and Pearl River Delta region is moving towards and will inevitably evolve into a mature and stable advanced stage.
