Those housing incentives are something I don't full comprehend why someone from Hong Kong would want to be based in Hengqin/Zhuhai. But it's interesting that they are doing it though.
Good point.
I am referring to the Greater Bay Area property. Last year, neighbor's nephew visited them in Canada and mentioned that he would settle there eventually as he could not afford to own housing in Hong Kong or Beijing, where he is working as a stage lighting technician.

Zhuhai isn't particularly historic nor a particularly major economic center or cultural center. The walking video is nice, but this also looks like the kind of development that you see in a lot of Chinese cities at this point.
I was watching the Hualian's latest quake (6.3M). People are favouring new buildings and ditching older housing of 30 years old and above, that are still selling NT$30M to NT$40M per unit.

Still researching on the Greater Bay Area. Wow!

So new customers of fixed deposit accounts in HK$ will earn 10% interest p.a.

From a non-English source, it is 18% for RMB deposit account; 10% USD; and 13,8% British Pound and Macanese Pataca.
