At the Macau promotion conference, Mr. Li Ming, deputy chief executive of the Tianhe District, introduced "Smart Tianhe Town" to fellow-citizens of Hong Kong and Macau, epresenting this possible futuristic development of Guangzhou city. This concept of the new Town-to-be caused wide concerns among business persons in both of those two cities. According to the views of members of the Guangzhou delegation Tianhe plans to use the coming three years to fully set up an industrial service zone and complete the hi-tech upgrading of one or two well-developed what it calls Communities of Smart. The developers believe that that this hi-tech luxury vision will become operational within five years, and by 2015, a top city building space of around 3 million square meters will be continually developed and constructed. Until then, the Tianhe 'Smart Guangzhou' will assemble a thousand high-end information service enterprises, provide 100,000 jobs and accommodate 300,000 residents.

At the end of November, a base of 20,000 square meters to present and experience "Smart Guangzhou" will be erected. This model base will seek to demonstrate how a well resourced city is capable through hi-tech means to runs by itself, and at the same time show daily occasions of happy family and well-being communities that everyone could one day enjoy.
