To conclude, we would like to thank you for the many useful discussions that have been
organized for us with public and private sector representatives during our stay. We have
benefitted greatly from them. Our confidence in Hong Kong's economic prospects--over both the
short and medium terms-reflects not only the opportunities provided by the external environment,
but also the key role that sustained, prudent economic policies have played in creating a favorable
climate for entrepreneurship and growth. We expect that these policies will help to maintain Hong
Kong s enviable record of economic success.
