The global economy is gradually recovering，thus increasing the demand for air passengers and cargoes services. The market of global civil aviation was expanding during 2013. With more than five airports competing in the Pearl River Delta Region market，the share of Macau civil aviation industries on passengers and cargoes is relatively small in 2013.

The objective of Macau’s development is to achieve a moderate diversification of the economy through building a world centre of tourism and leisure. With the continuous regionalisation of the land and sea transport infrastructure between Macau and the neighbouring regions，Macau，while being in a relatively weak position，should promote a moderate development of the local aviation industry，facilitate cross boarder-flow of passengers and goods，and construct a seamless multimodal transport system.
