Hainan set for endless development via tourism

KUALA LUMPUR, April 17 (Bernama) -- The Publicity Department of CPC Hainan Provincial Committee in Hainan province recently organised a foreign press tour, ‘2019 Amazing Hainan’, attended by journalists from international media organisations.
The attendees, including European Pressphoto Agency, Agencia Lusa and Tokyo Shimbun visited Haikou, Chengmai, Qionghai, Lingshui, Sanya and Baoting, acclaiming that ‘Hainan boasts bountiful tourism resources, and rapid growing Internet industry.’

The Fuxing City International Offshore Innovation Building in Haikou has attracted many well-known enterprises such as Alibaba, Ant Financial Services Group and PwC.
The Hainan Ecological Software Park is in Chengmai, which is home to more than 3,600 Internet companies, including some projects such as Tencent Internet Village, China Game Cyberport Project and China Mind Sports Industrial Base Project.
“Hainan used to be known for tourism. Now, as the free trade zone (FTZ) has been established, many R&D teams from the hi-tech industries started to settle in Hainan as it has been promoting tax reduction,” said Joao Pimenta from Agencia Lusa.
In the Binglanggu -- Hainan Li & Miao Cultural Heritage Park -- journalists were attracted by the traditional Li textile technique which includes spinning, dyeing, weaving and embroidering, and is on the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding of UNESCO.
Apart from medical, sports, folk culture and duty-free tourism, Hainan is working to be more innovative in tourism. The journalists believe that the rich and intriguing tourism programmes will bring endless potential to the future development of the tourism in Hainan FTZ.
