The Zhuhai Travel Agency Association, organizer of the "Meet you, Xiangzhou" event, will invite 1,300 residents for a first-hand brand-new summer tourism experience throughout June. Sign up at travel agencies across the city at a favorable price before June 30 as government is offering subsidies and enterprises are giving up part of their profits, according to Liang Shuiqiang, chairman of the association. For instance, the Helicopter Tour of Zhuhai will cost less than 500 yuan ($70), while the price for HMZB from the Sea is lower than 200 yuan ($28).
