About 61% of the goods imported from China in the first
half of 1985 were subsequently re-exported elsewhere. Re-exports of China origin to the rest of the world accounted for 30% of Hong Kong's total re-exports. China
has long been the largest source of goods re-exported
through Hong Kong.

Analysed by products, most categories of imports from China into Hong Kong showed decreases in the first
half of this year. Only miscellaneous manufactured articles, textile fibres, travel goods and handbags, and telecommunication and sound recording and reproducing apparatus and equipment recorded some growth.
12.
As a consequence of the very rapid growth in
domestic exports and re-exports to China and the decline
in imports from China, for the first half of 1985 Hong
Kong recorded a visible trade surplus with China of HK$6.9
billion, the first such surplus with China since 1951.
