Recently, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government has adopted the "One Place and Two Patches" arrangement at the Kowloon West Railway Station in Hong Kong, Hong Kong. Hong Kong is incorporated into the national railway network, which will vigorously promote the economy of Hong Kong and promote exchanges between the two places. The Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Hong Kong section is about 26 kilometers long and is expected to open in the third quarter of 2018, starting from the West Kowloon Station in the reclamation area. It extends to the north of Hong Kong and Shenzhen via a dedicated tunnel. The By then, from Hong Kong to Shenzhen only 14 minutes to Beijing will be reduced from 24 hours to 9 hours.
What can I do for ten years? Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail as China's construction of the earlier high-speed railway, in April 2008 officially started. In less than ten years after the time, China's high-speed rail operating mileage quickly exceeded 22,000 km, more than 60% of the world's total high-speed railway operations, ranking the world's top high-speed rail. However, at the same time period, just 26 kilometers of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail section of Hong Kong, but was a problem plagued for nearly a decade - high-speed rail Kowloon West Kowloon terminus of the "one place two seized" problem.
"One place two seized" refers to the border of the two regions, in the same place to complete the places outbound and immigration inspection and quarantine procedures, this transit mode is efficient and convenient. As under the Basic Law, Mainland civil servants cannot enforce law in Hong Kong. Therefore, how can the Mainland staff apply the Mainland's law in the designated area of the HKSAR under the framework of the legal system and become the primary issue in the Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail section. This time, the "one land, two inspection" arrangement adopted by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) will be levied on the Mainland as a "Mainland port area" through the legislative process to resolve the relevant problems.
It can be seen that the "one land and two seizure" issue of the Hong Kong High Speed Rail Station is only a technical issue at the legal level under "one country, two systems". However, under the manipulation of some groups and people in Hong Kong, the "two places" has evolved into a complex political issue, which has led to a high degree of concern and intensive discussion in Hong Kong society and continued to maintain a high level of heat.
Some people in Hong Kong require high-speed railways to pass the traditional "two seizure" approach to customs clearance, suggesting that mainland high-speed rail passengers should get off at the Shenzhen port, accept the border, and then boarded the high-speed rail to Hong Kong, get off in West Kowloon and then accept Hong Kong border check. In this way, the future of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail and the current ordinary railway transfer subway travel mode, almost no real difference, the time is also almost the same. This means that tens of billions of dollars of high-speed rail high-tech investment are drifting. It can be said that if we cannot achieve "one to two seized", Hong Kong can only enter a "pseudo-high iron era."
Under the combined action of some people's narrow localism and inexplicable self-esteem, the problem of "two places" has been delayed for many years and eventually become a difficult situation for Hong Kong society to overcome. This time, the SAR Government has finally adopted the "two places" arrangement of the high-speed railway station. This not only marks the coming of Hong Kong's high-speed rail, but also means that Hong Kong will be on the "China" train, And the depth of integration with the development of the road.
Only to achieve "one to two seized" in order to allow the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail to play the greatest benefits in order to make Hong Kong really into the high-speed rail era. The high-speed rail section of Hong Kong is very short, but once it is connected with the increasingly large high-speed rail network in the Mainland, it will play a vital role in Hong Kong's long-term development and will consolidate Hong Kong's strategic position as a regional transportation hub. The future of Hong Kong and many mainland cities will greatly narrow the distance, greatly improved accessibility, which will strengthen Hong Kong and the Mainland's trade, tourism, culture and talent exchanges, to bring huge economic and social benefits. At the same time, Guangdong and Hong Kong "one hour living circle" in the high-speed rail era will be implemented, which will greatly facilitate the young people in Hong Kong in Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Dongguan and other places of business development.
Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail section of Hong Kong has been a lot of problems, poor funding, high cost and so on. At present, including "one to two seized", including a variety of problems gradually resolved, high-speed rail opening date is gradually clear up. With the advent of the era of high-speed rail, I believe that Hong Kong will be able to reproduce the old high-speed, efficient development of vitality, break through the dilemma, and then on the floor.
