Urban Renewal & Planning: Macau’s urban renewal push is being reframed with district-led planning, a database of ageing buildings, incentives, and tighter oversight, while a revised 2020–2040 Urban Master Plan puts more weight on culture, technology, logistics, and Greater Bay Area integration. Sci-Tech Park Momentum: The Chief Executive chaired the first 2026 working group meeting for the Macao Sci-Tech Park, stressing timely infrastructure delivery, reserved space for sustainable development, and proactive talent attraction. Heat Safety: The Labour Department issued a heat stress warning urging employers to assess risks and protect workers with rescheduling, shade, ventilation, water breaks, and rest. Coastal & Marine Leisure (HK): Hong Kong gazetted plans for water recreation and a yacht bay development near the airport, including dredging and breakwaters, targeting leisure and tourism growth. Water & Health (Community): A community water monitoring forum in Mogalakwena reported unsafe communal tap water for people and animals, linking results to diarrhoea and skin rashes.
