Hong Kong's Starry Lee has proposed designating the Northern Metropolis as a "special zone" to accelerate construction. She highlighted the slow progress, particularly in the innovation hub being developed with Shenzhen. Lee suggested a streamlined approval process to reduce construction timelines significantly. Currently, projects like railways take about ten years to complete. The Northern Metropolis plan aims to develop 30,000 hectares in the New Territories into a new economic and housing center.
