HK has vital part to play in green development: FS
Financial Secretary Paul Chan said on Wednesday that Hong Kong will play a major role in contributing to the Belt and Road Initiative in terms of green finance and green technology.  He told the Belt and Road forum in Beijing that the SAR had issued more than US$80 billion in green bonds in 2022, which was a third of all the green bonds issued for the whole of Asia.  Chan also noted there are more than 100 green tech firms operating in Hong Kong.  "Hong Kong can join hands with the Greater Bay Area, Shenzhen and other cities and take a leadership role in green technology," he said.  The financial secretary added that the SAR could bring its experience, technologies and capital to countries along the Belt and Road.
