Rejuvenating city's natural treasures
Additionally, experts urged the government to ease legal and regulation restrictions to drive innovation. Yiu calls for fewer limitations for private developers to build high-end resort hotels in Lantau Island and Sai Kung peninsula, attracting more tourists to stay overnight.
For some suspended leisure projects, authorities can encourage private organizations to reutilize the buildings and lands. They can also reach out to social groups interested in public project revitalization to engage in reactivating these resources, said Yiu.
Yip advocates reducing barriers for the development of guesthouses and camper vans on islands, to expand accommodation options for tourists. In the long run, Yiu hopes updates to maritime laws will accelerate the introduction of novel vehicles for sea travel.
Integrating island tourism with other tourism strategies like eco-tourism and the mega event economy is another option. Gao envisions developing islands rich in plant and animal resources into nature education bases, while Yip supports the introduction of more events throughout the year to enhance islands' appeal.
