HK's Lam promotes high-speed rail as customs issue discussed in Beijing

Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor appraised the convenience of high-speed railways after traveling with her family to Guilin, the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, for a holiday on Saturday.

Lam, a self-appointed ambassador of the high=speed railways, posted a video on her social media platform with her personal experience on the train.

In the video, Lam mentioned that she had to make several detours to the Shenzhen North Railway Station before boarding the train to Guilin because the Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link, known as the XRL, is not yet in operation.
