Macao

Should this island really be in all those categories relating to Macao considering it does not (yet) belong to Macao? --Dpr 10:51, 1 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Although Hengqin may never officially become part of Macao SAR, I would say it should be a Macao category since the Macao and Cotai developments are driving the plans to develop Hengqin into a resort and MICE destination. It also appears that the Chinese goverment is moving closer to loosening border security between Macao and Hengqin Island, which would make travel much easier and lead to the commercial integration of the two islands.

I would say that Zhuhai should be associated with Macao, because it's the reason why it developed quickly 70.55.203.112 (talk) 09:29, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article make it seem like that it has a lot to do with Macau

Before all the developments Hengqin was just a deserted island--I've been there in 2009 and there was absolutely nothing. Indeed, there is only ~200 meters between it and Macau but trust me its historical cultural social legal whatever links to Macau is really minute. The Portuguese occupation was really brief and didn't left anything significant. However, this article makes it sounds like the Portuguese were of fundamental importance to Hengqin.
