Macao special administrative region (SAR) secretary for security Wong Sio-chak, who attended the summit on behalf of Macao chief executive Chui Sai-on, called on media in the region to embrace the latest technologies and expand reporting channels to tell stories in a comprehensive and compelling manner to inform the world about the rapidly developing Bay Area.

Echoing Li's observations on the media, Wang Zhimin, director of the liaison office of the Central People's Government in HKSAR, said the media should also report the hurdles that hinder the Bay Area development.
