摘要

The Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong High Speed Rail officially started operation on September 23,a step that makes Hong Kong part of China’s national high-speed rail network.As early as 2000,Hong Kong released the Railway Development Strategy 2000,in which regional expressways were proposed.In September,the 26-km rail link connected Hong Kong for the first time with the mainland’s 25,000-km high-speed rail network.The relatively small step Hong Kong moves forward puts its citizens within easier reach of neighboring cities in Guangdong Province,and injects new energy and vitality into Hong Kong’s development.
