In order to construct and promote the roles as ‘a global tourism and leisure centre’ and ‘a trading platform for economic co-operation between China and Portuguese-speaking countries’, as well as cope with the rapid growth of society, it is necessary to arrange the strategic deployment for talents development as soon as possible, in tandem with strengthening talents cultivation and reservation. For this purpose, the MSAR Government established the ‘Talents Development Committee’ (Comissão de Desenvolvimento de Talentos) in early 2014. The committee is customized for formulation, planning and coordination of a long-term developing strategy about talents cultivation in the MSAR. Besides, it is responsible to work out relevant measures and policies of talents cultivation in the short, medium and long term, as well as conduct “Elites Nurturing Plan”, “Incentive Plan for the Qualified Professionals”, and “Skilled Talents Acquiring Plan”. The committee also launches different schemes that strengthen local talents retention and encourage overseas talents returning to Macao, and accelerates the coordination of local, regional, and international talents training projects and events, and so on and so forth.
