Canada's
Smart Link in China is Hong Kong |
Hong Kong - Asia's business,
outward processing and communications hub
Conveniently
located in the heart of Asia, foreign direct investment into
Hong Kong assures optimal access to Asia from a world-class regional
centre. Hong Kong, the world's freest economy, boasts a highly
skilled workforce operating in fair and friendly business environment
with low taxes and excellent infrastructure.
Hong Kong also
provides the service platform through which inward investors
can reap the benefits of the manufacturing powerhouse of the
world - the Greater Pearl River Delta. New advantages like CEPA
(Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement) strengthen Hong Kong's
appeal as the gateway to and from the Mainland of China.
Hong Kong is
blessed with an invaluable natural resource: its geographical
location. Flanking the mouth of the Pearl River Delta (PRD),
Hong Kong is perfectly situated for trade with Mainland China;
the whole country is our natural hinterland.
For more than
a century and a half, Hong Kong has served as the gateway to
Mainland China. There is nowhere better than Hong Kong to obtain
the expertise, information and facilities needed to tap into
the immense Mainland Chinese market.
China's entry
to the World Trade Organisation and development of increasingly
competitive industries has set the stage for even greater economic
expansion.
The Closer
Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA), which took effect at the beginning
of 2004, provides Hong Kong with additional and exclusive Mainland
market access benefits.
The marriage
of Hong Kong's world class financial, marketing and technical
expertise and sophisticated infrastructure with the mainland's
rapidly developing manufacturing and services base has created
a win-win situation. Mainland China is now Hong Kong's largest
trading partner. Thousands of international companies involved
in China trade have chosen to establish their beachhead in Hong
Kong.
Hong Kong is
the obvious spring board into the Mainland market

It's Hong Kong's 10th
Anniversary
http://www.gov.hk/en/theme/10/index.htm
The 10th Anniversary
of the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative
Region is a memorable moment for the country and Hong Kong. In
2007, Hong Kong is celebrating this historic occasion. We are
taking the opportunity to review the past and look into the future.
"One Country,
Two Systems" was only a concept prior to 1997. In the past
ten years, we have successfully turned it into a reality. Within
the framework of the Basic Law, the freedom and life style of
the Hong Kong people, and the legal, social and economic systems
of the territory are preserved. With the perseverance and vibrancy
of the Hong Kong people, the territory has risen to the challenges
on different fronts. The past decade has seen significant developments
in our economy, and we have achieved breakthroughs on many fronts
on the basis of close cooperation and integration with the Mainland
economy. We have continued to thrive and prosper, maintaining
our success as an international financial centre, as well as
a leading business and trading hub in Asia.
The HKSAR Government
is organising a host of events to celebrate the occasion in the
territory, the Mainland and overseas. From the second quarter
in 2007, a series of activities, including exhibitions, conferences,
commissioning of infrastructure projects, sports events and cultural
presentations will be held. We welcome everyone to participate.
We encourage community bodies and district organisations to organise
celebration activities, so as to provide more opportunities for
the public to share the joy of this festive occasion.
