A swift cross-border response unfolded this week as Sinotrans Logistics in Shenzhen activated emergency protocols to support Hong Kong SAR's fire relief efforts. Within hours of the Tai Po industrial blaze on December 12, 2025, the China Merchants subsidiary deployed its specialized 'Relief Supplies Express' network through the Greater Bay Area Cross-Border Green Transport corridor.
The logistics hub prioritized delivery of firefighting equipment and medical resources to frontline responders, demonstrating the operational efficiency of regional cooperation mechanisms. “Our Shenzhen team maintained 24/7 coordination with Hong Kong SAR authorities to ensure seamless customs clearance,” stated a Sinotrans Logistics spokesperson.
This collaboration highlights strengthened disaster response frameworks within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area development initiative. Analysts note the operation aligns with broader efforts to optimize emergency resource sharing across the Pearl River Delta region.
